Da #Wirecard ja nicht mehr da ist, um der #Porno-Industrie zu dienen, muss man eben anders zu Streich kommen. #Paxum heisst das schöne Institut, das auch den Tate-Brüdern gerne hilft. Besitzer ist Anton Postolnikov, Neffe eines #Kreml-Granden, der wo investiert? Trump Media. Wer hängt noch in der Suppe drin? Raiffeisen, die weiterhin groß in Russland unterwegs sind. #Kleptopia und #HumanTrafficking - passt.

Trump Media was saved in 2022 by Russian-American under criminal investigation

Donald Trump’s social media company Trump Media managed to go public last week only after it had been kept afloat in 2022 by emergency loans provided in part by a Russian-American businessman under scrutiny in a federal insider-trading and money-laundering investigation.

Defendant Trump stands to gain billions of dollars
– his stake is currently valued at about $4bn
– from the merger between Trump Media and Technology Group and the blank-check company Digital World Acquisition Corporation, which took the parent company of Truth Social public.

But Trump Media almost did not make it to the merger after regulators opened a securities investigation into the merger in 2021 and caused the company to burn through cash at an extraordinary rate as it waited to get the green light for its stock market debut.

The situation led Trump Media to take emergency loans, including from an entity called 🔹ES Family Trust, 🔹which opened an account with #Paxum #Bank, a small bank registered on the Caribbean island of Dominica that is best known for providing financial services to the #porn industry.

Through leaked documents, the Guardian has learned that ES Family Trust operated like a shell company for a Russian-American businessman named #Anton #Postolnikov, who co-owns Paxum Bank and has been a subject of a years-long joint federal criminal investigation by the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) into the Trump Media merger.

The existence of the trust was first reported by the Guardian last year. However, who controlled the account, how the trust was connected to Paxum Bank, and how the money had been funneled through the trust to Trump Media was unknown.
