Panama Papers: global reaction live
by Luke Harding
The Guardian, April 3, 2016
A network of secret offshore deals and vast loans worth $2bn has laid a trail to Russias president, Vladimir Putin.
An unprecedented leak of documents shows how this money has made members of Putins close circle fabulously wealthy.
Though the presidents name does not appear in any of the records, the data reveals a pattern his friends have earned millions from deals that seemingly could not have been secured without his patronage.
The documents suggest Putins family has benefited from this money his friends fortunes appear his to spend.
The files are part of an unprecedented leak of millions of papers from the database of Mossack Fonseca, the worlds fourth biggest offshore law firm. They show how the rich and powerful are able to exploit secret offshore tax regimes in myriad ways.
The offshore trail starts in Panama, darts through Russia, Switzerland and Cyprus and includes a private ski resort where Putins younger daughter, Katerina, got married in 2013.

It's not the Secretary of the Navy who should resign.
Its the traitor who thinks he is above the law and can chose them he thinks fit to join him there.
GOP lies are killing democracy.
The last graf:(NYT reporter Michael) Schmidts acceptance of the GOP talking point that what happened with Ukraine never actually happened should remind us all once again of Orwell: And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed if all records told the same tale then the lie passed into history became truth.
It's the Republicans' biggest impeachment lie, and Americans could fall for it
Here is why the Russiapublicans are FIRST TO LIE IT STICKS.

Trump did not fail to extort the Ukrainians he got caught in the act. This distinction is incredibly important

Forthe millions of Americans viewing today, the two most important facts are the following, Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., said on the first day of public impeachment hearings. No. 1: Ukraine received the aid. No. 2: There was, in fact, no investigation into Biden.
Stefaniks side wants this to be the central point that sticks in our heads: The alleged quid pro quo, where Ukraine would receive military aid appropriated by Congress on the condition that it cooked up an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden, did not actually occur because Ukraine received the aid the quid and never publicly announced an investigation into Biden the quo.
Snip...
What is most alarming is not that the GOP is promoting this talking point, but that it appears to be working. Following the impeachment proceedings, The New York Times podcast The Daily concluded with an assessment by top national security reporter Michael Schmidt:
Its a reoccurring theme in the Trump story: The president tries to do something but ultimately is not effective enough to actually get it done. So, should we penalize him for those attempts? Does the attempt . . . reach that bar for Congress to remove the president?
Snip...
Trump did not fail to extort the Ukrainians. He got caught in the act. Only after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced the launch of an official investigation into his scheme did the aid flow.

CIA's top lawyer made 'criminal referral' on complaint about Trump Ukraine callExperts are raising questions about why the Justice Department did not open an investigation
NBC News, Oct. 4, 2019
By Ken Dilanian and Julia Ainsley
WASHINGTON Weeks before the whistleblower's complaint became public, the CIA's top lawyer made what she considered to be a criminal referral to the Justice Department about the whistleblower's allegations that President Donald Trump abused his office in pressuring the Ukrainian president, U.S. officials familiar with the matter tell NBC News.
The move by the CIA's general counsel, Trump appointee Courtney Simmons Elwood, meant she and other senior officials had concluded a potential crime had been committed, raising more questions about why the Justice Department later declined to open an investigation.
The phone call that Elwood considered to be a criminal referral is in addition to the referral later received as a letter from the Inspector General for the Intelligence Community regarding the whistleblower complaint.
SNIP...
But a timeline provided by U.S. officials familiar with the matter shows that multiple senior government officials appointed by Trump found the whistleblower's complaints credible, troubling and worthy of further inquiry starting soon after the president's July phone call.
