Trump always lies about everything.
How can the US have such a mendacious president.
Why does anyone think that he might say anything that is true?
Why does anyone media quote him for anything but comic value?Daniel Dale (@ddale8)NASA wasn’t “closed” before Trump. The US doesn’t pay NATO anywhere close to “trillions of dollars” or “hundreds of billions of dollars a year.” Trump hasn’t built anywhere close to “over 1,000 miles of wall.” Trump hasn’t “ended eight wars.” It’s not true that “nobody” else has ended a war. Trump didn’t achieve “no tax on Social Security.” Ruth Bader Ginsburg died weeks before a presidential election, not right after one. Senator Thom Tillis is still a senator.
And more. Quick fact check of some of Trump’s many false claims on Fox this morning:cnn.com/2026/04/15/politics/…— https://x.com/ddale8/status/2044495950673019320

AI Overview
Investigative reporting and scholarly analysis of the 1990s and early 2000s have highlighted a significant transnational “state-crime nexus” involving Russian-speaking organized crime figures, particularly within high-end New York real estate. This era saw a convergence between Russian capital flight after the Soviet collapse and the financial difficulties of U.S. developers like Donald Trump. [1, 2, 3]The Transnational State-Crime Nexus (1990s-2000s)
“Russian Mafia” Expansion: Following the fall of the Soviet Union, Russian organized crime networks, often blurring the lines between state officials, intelligence services, and criminal syndicates, expanded into the United States, utilizing techniques like gasoline bootlegging and high-end money laundering.
Trump Tower as a Hub: Reports suggest that Russian gangsters used properties owned or managed by Donald Trump, particularly Trump Tower, to launder money and conceal assets. This involved purchasing numerous condos using anonymous shell companies, a trend that began as early as 1984 and continued into the 1990s and 2000s.
Key Actors: Investigations by journalists like Craig Unger and testimony from Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson highlighted connections between Trump and individuals associated with Russian mobsters or oligarchs, including Felix Sater, Tevfik Arif, and Tamir Sapir of the Bayrock Group, who operated from Trump Tower. [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]Melania Trump’s Contextual Role
Arrival in NYC (1996): Melania Knauss (later Melania Trump) arrived in New York in 1996 at age 26, a later age than most aspiring models. She came to the U.S. via sponsorship from Paolo Zampolli, a modeling agent known for introducing her to Donald Trump in 1998.
Zampolli’s Network: Paolo Zampolli, who ran Metropolitan Models, had ties to Jeffrey Epstein and brought multiple Eastern European models to the US, often hosting lavish parties attended by wealthy and influential men, including those in the real estate and financial sectors.
Visa Concerns: Reports from 2016 indicated that Melania Knauss worked in the US in 1996 on a tourist visa before receiving a work visa, and later obtained an EB-1 “Einstein” visa in 2001, which is typically reserved for those with extraordinary ability, a development some experts noted was unusual for a working model with no major awards.
Association with Epstein/Maxwell: Photographs from the late 1990s and early 2000s placed Melania alongside Donald Trump, Jeffrey Epstein, and Ghislaine Maxwell, particularly at events at Mar-a-Lago. [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14]Summary of FindingsThe period of Melania Trump’s entry into the New York social scene coincides with a heightened era of “state-crime” investigations where Russian interests were heavily infiltrating Manhattan luxury real estate and social circles. While she navigated the same social networks as key figures linked to this nexus (Zampolli, Epstein), available public reports primarily focus on her immigration status and career, rather than direct involvement in the laundering activities themselves.

“Pivot to Alternative Intelligence Sourcing
Because official U.S. domestic channels are increasingly viewed as politicized or sanitized, investigators and independent analysts will likely pivot away from relying solely on FBI records. To map out the true timelines of the late 1990s and early 2000s, there will be
a heightened focus on the transnational state-crime nexus.
Observers will attempt to unmask historical overlaps by looking into foreign intelligence footprints, international financial flows, and the movements of associated organized crime figures that operated in the same New York and Palm Beach social circles during that era.”
