adam schiff said he plans to focus on that particular basket as part of his work scrutinizing additional threads of the russia question that have been unanswered and, of course, chairwoman maxine waters of house financial services made it a top priority for her committee. what this reporting suggests and indicates is there could be significantly more to the story of trump s relationship with deutsche bank than we know given the investigating that s been happening. glen kushner, you know, the words coming from this report from the new york times suspicious activity, elicit activity alert, money laundering, those are some of the words to pull out from the new york times reporting here.
one thing we can be very confident about is that trump s legal team is going to try to fight any effort to force these financial institutions to turn over his information as hard as possible. that said, as glen indicated, it s going to be challenging for him to make that case. one of the issues for waters is making sure that this subpoena she issued captures transactions that happened after trump became president, after jared kushner entered his time serving as a senior staffer in the white house. my guess is that lawyers on those committees are going back, reviewing the work and assessing whether or not they need to issue new subpoenas to make sure that their document demands capture the kind of materials that raised red flags that the red flags detailed in the new york times story that ian the next thing. congress will want to make sure that they have asked for all the correct documents and trump s team is going to try to push as hard as they can not just ultimately to win in court
investigations of mueller article of various types of transactions, how does this fit in if at all? maybe a larngger story as we we hearing from katie? this is a separate line of inquiry from the focuses of mueller during the investigation. we know that while he did a lot of investigative moves, the report doesn t indicate that he found anything worth putting in that document about president trump and jared kushner s personal financial dealings, particularly dealings occurring prior to trump s entrance into the 2016 presidential campaign. this is something that irked some folks and sort of the russia watching community who expected that mueller would try to pull threads in terms of whether trump had engaged in financial transactions or developed business relationships that could affect the way he thought about american foreign policy vis-a-vis russia. that s a line of ir kawhi inqu.
misidentification in this region with grave consequences during the iran/iraq war in 1988, iranian commercial flight was hit by the u.s. they don t want things like that happening today. the argument that s been made ishaan, is this administration s policies working in some places, if you look at the his bella that they have been hampered recently by the reduction of resources. that s right. reporting from my colleagues over this weekend has appears to confirm that hezbollah is feeling the pinch of what appears to be the trump s administration maximum pressure campaign on iran. iran funds this lebanese organization to a great extent and they ve seen the budgets massively slashed so for sure
an effective aml program requires sophisticated transaction screening technology as well as a trained group of individuals who can analyze the alerts that are generated by that technology. both thoroughly and efficiently. at no time was an investigator prevented from escalating activity identified as potentially suspicious. furthermore, the suggestion that anyone was reassigned or fired in an effort to quash concerns relating to any client is categorically false. that coming from deutsche bank and also getting reaction of spokes people on behalf of president trump and jared kushner. the trump organization saying they have no knowledge of flagged transactions with deutsche bank and a spokesperson for the kushner company says an allegation of money laundering is made up and totally false. okay. that just came in several hours ago. let s bring in the panel. betsy woodruff, glen kushner,
