Trump Hotel Azerbaijan, /corrupt operation engineered by oligarchs tied to Iran's RevolutionaryGard

are apparently heavily tied to organized crime, like Russia's government with the Russia's mafia, and somewhat like some of our own new kleptocrats with their ties to both and fingers into our government via Republican appointments.

Apparently corruption and power have grown so great in Iran, though, that the Ayatollah has recently felt a need to rein in the power and wealth accumulation of what's supposed to be a military corps committed to protecting the religious government. Funny, same thing happening in nation after nation around the planet.

Wonder if there's a relationship between money and power, the quadrupling of planetary wealth over the past 35 years due to technology, with its concentration in new ultrawealthy classes, and the intense corruption infiltrating and taking over governments?

Our intelligence services believe at least most of Iran's hackers are state sponsored. Let's face it, whether they're enlisted in the IRGC or employed by the government or some other entity, this has been going on for a long time. If Iran's government disapproved their work they'd be explaining themselves in Evin Prison.

ALL of them.



This is so massive. It explains why Mueller & every one of our Allies are all together in rooting out the tentacles of it.

They are everywhere. Money & unimaginable wealth obtained thru organized crime that has been so embedded, they take over countries & eat each other alive.

Dirty viper Ivanka better end up in prison with the rest of the snake pit.

Yes, and so well said! Also vast wealth accumulated legally but used subversively and destructively.

One of the ex-AG talking heads was saying he believes the Mueller investigation is putting together a big picture of what's been going on for everyone to see and understand. Makes very good sense, and I really, really hope that's true.
