The @nytimes blindly stumbling over another FBI honey pot operation that is using Trump Inc. as the bait. You'd think they could figure this out after 40+ years of identical stories... #ButNothingsHappening

This looks like another in a long line of stings, where a shady foreign operator partners with Trump Inc. to lease the name Trump only to find out they also leased a bunch of FBI informants! Oh look, they are also talking about projects in U.A.E. & Indonesia!

As usual, the Uruguay project involves a construction slow down as corrupt labor officials try to squeeze the developers. You think they would learn by now!

Well this looks like the person that may have been the target. Nicolas Dujovne was a central figure in the original development project. He is now Argentina's economics minister & negotated an IMF bailout for Argentina last year! Can you smell the Swamp yet?

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has been linked to all kinds of shady funding issues that I have touched on in other threads (including Ukrainian oligarchs & their #moneylaundering banks).

Well imagine that, a Trump Inc condominium honey trap has lured in tax evaders & 21 anonymous shell companies! For decades Argentinians have laundered cash into Uruguayan real estate in the area to avoid taxes.

Between 2007 & 2011 (article isn't clear) the investors in this project were introduced to the Trumps by a developer who was part of a Dominican Republic golf course project by Trump Inc. They bought the land in 2011 but played games with the financing to pay for construction.

Trump Inc announced the deal in 2012 with a claim the site would be open by 2016. But as always seems to happen, his 'targets' or 'partners' start running into troubles. Followed by the law suits which always seem to find good information in discovery, almost like it is planned..

Why Uruguay? Because it is the kind of place where you can buy million dollar condos with cash!
Of course many of the condos were paid for through accountants who had ties to shell companies set up by Mossack Fonseca of the #PanamaPapers

Argentine's President tried to take advantage of the partnership between Dujovne & Trump by appointing him economics minister...
Seems Mr. Dojovne has come under the microscope for some of these deals, but he swears they all predated his rise to govt. minister so they are okay!

Dujovne negotiated a $57 Billion loan for the IMF last year, the largest loan in the history of the IMF.

#ButNothingsHappening even when the @nytimes almost notices an FBI sting on a guy who can get $57B out of the Swamp...
