Matthew Isaac Knoot,
a 38-year-old man from Tennessee,
has been charged for
💥helping #North #Korea fund its weapons of mass destruction program.Knoot allegedly helped #trick and #defraud US media, tech, and finance companies.
🔥They believed they were hiring a US citizen
– Andrew M., ❗️whose identity was, in fact, stolen. ❗️The scheme caused firms hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages.
Knoot has allegedly been running a complex scheme for years,
👉funneling hundreds of thousands of dollars to foreign actors, namely, #North #Korea.He helped 🔸trick American and British companies into hiring IT workers from North Korea.🔸
Knoot assisted them in using a ♦️stolen identity to pose as a US citizen♦️,
🔹hosted company laptops at his residences, 🔹downloaded and installed software without authorization on such laptops to facilitate access and perpetuate the deception,
🔹and conspired to ♦️launder payments for the remote IT work, ♦️including to accounts tied to North Korean and Chinese actors,” the Department of Justice said.In an attempt to avoid sanctions and get funds for its weapons of mass destruction program, ⭐️North Korea has been dispatching thousands of IT workers overseas for years.
⚠️The US warns that this is a growing threat, and companies should remain vigilant when hiring remote IT workers.
🔥North Koreans use “pseudonymous email, social media, payment platform and online job site accounts,
as well as false websites, proxy computers, and witting and unwitting third parties located in the United States and elsewhere.”One such worker earns up to $300,000 a year, which means ❌hundreds of millions of dollars are flowing to the regime every year.
💥Entities such as the North Korean Ministry of Defense collect the money to fund their weapon programs.

Prosecutors believe the readback should include the part of Pecker’s #testimony about directing #DylanHoward to notify other employees of The #NationalEnquirer they should bring any stories about #Trump to him. #Pecker also testified that he told Howard that the Enquirer employees would have to speak to #MichaelCohen about the arrangement.
Justice Merchan notes that in the same section Pecker testified he told Howard to keep it secret — goes to #intent to #defraud.
-
Justice #Merchan explains that #intent to #defraud means that a person’s conscious objective is to do so, but does not require advanced planning.
The defendant must intend that the conduct be performed to prevent or promote the election of a person through unlawful means.
Intent to defraud needn’t be an intent to defraud any particular person or entity & can extend beyond economic concerns.
-
#Steinglass says that #Trump’s #intent to #defraud could not be any clearer, arguing that Trump could have simply paid #StormyDaniels himself, but instead devised an elaborate scheme to pay Daniels secretly that required the involvement of at least 10 other people. “Everything Mr. Trump & his cohorts did in this case was cloaked in lies,” Steinglass says, adding, “The name of the game was concealment, & all roads lead to the man who benefited the most, Donald Trump.”
-
Steinglass shows Trump’s filing w/the federal government’s Office of Government #Ethics in May 2018 that revealed #Trump had made a payment to #MichaelCohen. The filing came days after #RudyGiuliani said on #FoxNews that Trump had reimbursed Cohen for the #StormyDaniels payment.
#Blanche cited this same filing as #evidence that Trump had no #intent to #defraud.
“The defendant didn’t actually pay a lawyer, he paid a porn star by funneling money through a lawyer” Steinglass says.
-
#Blanche argues there was no #intent by #Trump to #defraud — a #legal concept at the heart of the case. Every time Blanche says the phrase “intent to defraud,” the judge looks at him — but so far, Justice #Merchan has not interrupted him.
Blanche argues the prosecution must show that Trump “caused” the false records. He’s correct about the wording in NY’s #FalseRecords #Law, but “caused” is not a super high bar.

#Blanche is focusing on the 34 docs that led to the 34 #felony charges. He sounded as if he was getting close to making a #legal argument about “intent to defraud.” The #jurors would have to find that #Trump acted w/ #intent to #defraud when he directed the falsification of the docs in order to find him #guilty.
Justice #Merchan appeared to glare at Blanche as he came close to commenting on the #law. But the defense lawyer moved away & the judge said nothing.

Is #SCOTUS a RICO?
Jane Roberts, who is married to John Roberts, made $10.3 million in commissions from elite #law firms, whistleblower documents show.
#conspiracy #defraud #RICOThe US Supreme Court is precariously close to becoming a Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization.
A whistleblower alleges that Jane Roberts—wife of Chief Justice John Roberts—was paid more than $10 million in recruiting fees from top law firms that had business in front of the Court.
At least one of the firms that paid Jane Roberts - WilmerHale - later argued before #scotus.
John Roberts didn’t recuse, and voted in favor of Wilmer Hale’s client.

The moves from Palmer, Hartmann & #Trump, had they been successful, threatened to throw the statewide certification of #Michigan's 2020 election in doubt.
The revelation of the contents of the call w/ TFG comes as he faces 4 counts of #criminal #conspiracy to #defraud the United States & its voters of the rightful outcome of the election. Efforts to prevent certification of Democrat Joe Biden’s 154,000-vote victory in Michigan are an integral part of the indictment.

That #Republican expressed skepticism about the #FakeElectors plan but told others he was going along w/it in part because he feared he would face blowback from #Trump supporters if he didn’t.
The lawsuit, filed last yr by 2 of the state’s rightful electors, alleged #Republicans had taken part in a #conspiracy to #defraud #voters & sought up to $200k from each Trump #FakeElector. No money is being exchanged as part of the #settlement. -

#Kise argued that the defendants didn’t mean to #defraud anyone w/disparate property valuations (irrelevant). He calls this the essence of the commercial real estate marketplace, saying “buyers have a view, sellers have a view, none of them are wrong.”
“Everyone has a different opinion as to valuation,” Kise said, summarizing his case after spending a long time explaining that #DeutscheBank, one of the #lenders, did its own due diligence & came up w/ another set of values for certain properties. -
I pretty much have CNN on 24/7 in my bedroom because it is the easiest thing to ignore, and I get breaking news relatively quickly.
When I woke up this morning, the story playing was about Trump's latest case-- the fraud one, if you haven't been playing along at home.
Anyway, it made me think. Since their New York business certifications have been revoked and a third party is dissolving their New York holdings... is this the 2023 version of banishing?
If it is, I'm down.
