Las Vegas Sands target of money-laundering investigation – report

And let's light a fire up on Koch's ass too.

This could be fun!

Yeah, there's probably no story here.

US authorities also are investigating the Sands to see if there were breaches of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), which prohibits bribes to foreign officials by US companies, in its Macau operation.

We'll have to apologize.

So, as I understand the OP, the casino's money may be dirty, but it is laundered thoroughly at the gaming tables before Adelson donates to the campaigns.

Of course!!! sarcasm.

These men (I have better names for them, but trying for civility here) run around the world making deals and building lavish casinos and resorts, with infrastructure provided by local governments (taxpayers.) When it works, the profits are obscene for the rich guy, and when it doesn't, no worries, the taxpayers get the bill for that too. A win win for Adelson and his band of merry men.

I get more real news from RT America, Al Jazeera English, The Financial Times of London, and other news agencies outside this country, than any American based media. It's all corporate controlled, corporate approved propaganda. 90% of ALL media in this country is owned by 6 corporations. Want an example? Just watch this. Orwell Rolls in his Grave (Full 3HR Documentary) Its long but, worth a look.

They are a bunch of crooks!

money through a casino in the form of "gambling losses". Hell, the biggest drug king pins in Mexico could buy a U.S. president this way, with no money trail.

Not a good combination at all.

Adelson looks really unhealthy. I don't know how old he is but he looks 80 and has a big gut. Not a good combination.

Sand blasted money.

snip:
Sure, Democrats want to embarrass Adelson - who may become the single largest Republican donor this year - by repeating scandalous allegations contained in a lawsuit filed by a dismissed employee, alleging that Adelson conscienced prostitution in his Macau casinos. Thus, Chinese prostitution money was flowing to Republican coffers, they said. snip

Democrats never even broached allegations contained in lawsuits that Adelson - who according to Forbes is worth nearly $25 billion and is the 14th richest man in the world - stiffed his former driver and members of the detail that protects his family for required overtime wages. (Adelson was dropped from the former lawsuit, but his company is still a defendant.)

But those charges are still being litigated. So let's confine ourselves to the well-known things Democrats could have pointed out about Adelson.

For example, Adelson has elected not to sign a contract with the Culinary union, which is his right. But Adelson went further: When the Culinary staged a pre-opening protest at The Venetian, the casino's staff demanded police arrest demonstrators, and when officers refused, Sands sued. A federal judge determined the sidewalks outside Strip casinos are public forums, but Sands appealed that ruling to the U.S. Supreme Court before being rebuffed. snip

Wow, he wouldn't pay his driver and security overtime and he's worth $25 billion! Can you believe this POS?
