June 2013: Trump’s Deutsche banker, Rosemary Vrablic, did an apt deal w/ two other assocs, called “Bergel 715 Associates.” Jared and Ivanka recent fin disclosure reported income from *that same* deal. 👇
"Deutsche Bank said it had not been aware that Ms. Vrablic and her colleagues had done business with a company part-owned by Mr. Kushner."

Uh huh...wasn't aware of Jeffrey Epstein's funding Russian girls, either. . .
"The bank will closely examine the information that came to light on Friday and the fact pattern from 2013," Deutsche Bank spokesman Daniel Hunter told The Times."

LOL.
"The size of Kushner's stake in Bergel 715 is unclear. The company has sold dozens of condos in the Park Avenue building over the last four decades, according to the report. At least one of the apartments was sold to Kushner Companies."
"Vrablic is reportedly a "leading private banker" in New York who worked w/ the Kushner family before even coming to Deutsche Bank in 2006. In 2011, Kushner introduced Vrablic to future-President Trump when most top banks balked at doing business w/ him." https://twitter.com/MsMariaT/status/1120409496311029760
"I introduced him to this woman Rosemary," Kushner testified to the House Intelligence Committee in 2017. "She is one of the biggest private wealth bankers, probably in the world. Amazing banker, amazing woman. Very smart banker. And she banked my family for a long time."
"The following yr, the bank lent Trump about $175M for Doral...and the Trump International Hotel & Tower in Chicago. Trump later pursued a $1B loan...Financial docs submitted by...Michael Cohen showed that Trump inflated his net worth by about $4B in his pursuit."
THAT'S ILLEGAL, BTW.

"Though his NFL bid was rejected, Trump later got another $170 million in loans from the bank for his Washington hotel. Trump later inflated Vrablic's role at the bank, as well during his 2016 presidential campaign."
"I am friends with all the major banks. They are dying to do business with me," Trump insisted to the Times in 2016 when pressed on financial firms' refusal to do business with him. "Why don't you call the head of Deutsche Bank? Her name is Rosemary Vrablic. She is the boss."
"That year, anti-money-laundering specialists at the bank recommended that multiple transactions by companies controlled by Trump and Kushner be reported to the Treasury Dept's financial crimes watchdog...."
"...some of the transactions...involved money flowing back and forth w/ OVERSEAS [cough, RUSSIA] entities or individuals, which bank employees considered suspicious." However, execs at the bank rejected the suggestion and never reported them..."

WEIRD! https://twitter.com/MsMariaT/status/1280549003298369537

The DOJ last year launched an investigation into the bank's compliance w/ money laundering regulations.

CREW also called on the Federal Reserve Board of Governors to investigate whether the bank failed to report suspicious financial activity by Trump and Kushner."
"Questions about transactions between President Trump and foreign actors whose conduct seemingly warranted suspicious activity reports, potentially facilitated by Deutsche Bank, harms the public legitimacy of the institution of the presidency itself."

...
"Christie was referring to an elaborate revenge plot that the older Kushner hatched...in order to target his brother-in-law, William Schulder, a former employee turned witness for fed prosecutors....Kushner...was under investigation...for making illegal campaign contributions."
"As a part of the plot, Kushner hired a prostitute to lure Schulder into having sex in a Bridgewater, New Jersey, motel room as a hidden camera rolled. A tape of the encounter was then sent to Kushner's sister and Schulder's wife, Esther."

WOW, nice family!
"...the intimidation stunt failed. The Schulders brought the video to prosecutors....[The call girl] turned on Kushner...Kushner pleaded guilty to 16 counts of tax evasion, one count of retaliating against a fed witness - his brother-in-law - & another count of lying to the FEC."
Imagine Jared and Trump laughing about how you could blackmail politicians with video and then control them to do your bidding.
Does anyone know if Rosemary Vrablic knew, conducted any business for, Jeffrey Epstein?
"In a phone interview w/ Observer, Steven Hoffenberg alleged Epstein participated in a Ponzi scheme the two ran together in the 1980s, before using the ill-gotten gains to launch his investment company with the help of financial loans from Deutsche Bank." https://observer.com/2019/07/jeffrey-epstein-deutsche-bank-tainted-money/
"...Deutsche Bk has been plagued w/ scandals since...*2008*...In 2017, the bank reached a $7.2B settlement w/ the DOJ over allegedly misleading investors on mortgage-backed securities, and was later fined $630M for alleged involvement in RU $ laundering." https://observer.com/2019/07/jeffrey-epstein-deutsche-bank-tainted-money/

Trump outbid Epstein for that Palm Beach mansion, and sold it to the Russian (Rybolovlev) in 2008, with Russian money from Deutsche Bank.

Jeffrey was allegedly pissed bc he knew Trump was broke at the time.
