I'm not aware of any of those activities. I have been called a surrogate at a time or two in that campaign, and I didn't have, and I have communications with the Russians. What do I have to get involved with Putin for? I have nothing to do with Putin. I've never spoken to him. I don't know anything about a mother than he will respect me. Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails

that are missing. So, it is political. You're a communist. No, Mr. Green. Communism is just a red herring. Like all members of the oldest profession, I'm a capitalist. Thank you. Hello and welcome to Mollershi Road. I'm your host, A.G. Allison Gill. And today I have

a very difficult episode to bring you. I was recently able to on earth in interview, I did with Deutsche Bank whistleblower Val Brux met back in 2019 that never aired. And recently we got terribly sad news as we learned that the body of Valbrox meant that 46 was discovered at about 7am, Monday, April 28, 2022, at Woodrow Wilson High School in El Serrino, located northeast of downtown Los Angeles. The corner had not indicated at the time the cause of death, authorities do not suspect foul play. The Los Angeles Times reported citing the LAPD captain and a final medical examiner's report is not expected until the summer. Quote, this investigation is still

ongoing, however, no foul play is suspected at this time. And based on the investigation, it appeared that Bruxmitt was alone on the grounds of the school most of the weekend, proceeding his death. That's the LAPD in a statement. The manner of Bruxmitt's death is pending review of the investigation, along with the coroner's examination and toxicology results. Brooks mit disappeared a year ago after he was reported to have turned over secret files about Deutsche Bank to authorities, what follows are excerpts from our previously unaird interview from December 2019, and please forgive the sound quality.

First up, Val talks about Glenn Simpson from Fusion GPS and how he was offered $10,000 back in January of 2017. For the documents he retrieved from his deceased father who had worked for Deutsche Bank. Val says Simpson wanted information on the Mercer's $14 billion medallion fund and how the reporting was wrong about how much Glenn had paid for Val's documents. Let's listen. Yeah, that's one thing. Another thing that was interesting. I don't remember who he said it on your show or if it was said on your show, but maybe I'm just imagining this part, but Glenn Simpson, the deal I had with Glenn for the documents was for $10,000. And this was the first time anyone had ever offered me any money for these documents.

And the first time I ever got paid for this. And I thought it was very interesting, especially that it was Glenn Simpson. This is January 2017, just a week or so after the bus fee had published a steel document. So the whole world was swarming over this and I was like, wow, okay, I definitely got to meet this guy. This is going to be very interesting. And Glenn said, I'll pay you $10,000, plus expenses, and become the short version of the story is he said he was having quote-unquote passport troubles and he could not leave the

country. So we had to pick a mutual area to meet because I did not know. I mean, I knew him from the news, but I didn't really know about who he was. I mean, he could have been working for the government, I don't know what he was dealing with. And he didn't really know me. I could have been anybody. Russian spy, which I would later view accused of multiple times by Glenn as well, multiple times. And so we decided to go to St. Thomas, and I was in Portugal at the time in a really bad state. of particular data out in the field. I've been calling this person in my handler. It kind

of steers me in directions in the right way to go and around with going to talk to you. And this is the person who took me and taught you a gun and said that gun would pay for what I have. And when I know, the focus was of course Trump, but the main focus of the time was on Robert Mercer and Renaissance Capital, sorry, Renaissance technology. And if you wanted to know what was going on with Robert Mercer, it was the Dowian Fund. Apparently, this fund puts in like 20 or so years from's close to, it's in 13 to 12 billion dollars, while the regular fund barely breaks even, right? And the, and the diamonds fund is 13 and 14 billion dollars, you know, 139 people, close to the sentence, sound, and employees, and everyone

wants to know how this office thing exists, how it makes money and why is no one heard about the method of which riches come. So we go out to the same columnist, we book a room with this sort of terrible hotel and when I go through my documents with an IT person, and say, OK, you're who you say you are, you're documents are what you say they were. So I'm going to start paying.

So it gives me five grand, the short version. And over a course of a week, you pay me, but let's just say it does not point in time, $55,000. And then I stay on the same Thomas, and then I go, and she, David reported very differently. David reported that I got to $1,000. And I was owed more, right? And the reason that this is an issue to me is because when I I go and I have my moments of re-pension, I start googling myself, see what the

comments are in different papers. I see them the very far right wing. It's all over the place and say, well, you see if Glenn Simpson paid a thousand dollars for these Deutsche Bank documents, this guy must die, I must have had shit. There's nothing. I mean, who cares? They're in $1,000. There's nothing there. So obviously Trump is going to get a real act that he's going to win in Bobo Bobo.

There's a person there. That's an issue, right? In this next clip, I ask about the circumstances surrounding how he came, how Val came into possession of these documents. Fusion GPS wanted to pay him for these documents. Val concluded that there was no foul play in his father's death. Let's listen. I do want to talk about the documents you have. Can you just tell us briefly the circumstances

under which you came into possession of these documents? Yeah, sure. Unless you don't want to talk about it, which I understand we can we can move ahead just that you have them if that if that's your preference You know you asked me. I was okay. I you gave me the prep questions, and I was expecting it. So it's okay my father he killed himself in January 26 2014 he hung himself and He used the dogs least which is I think symbolic I don't know I and nobody was thinking no one does it's you said alien you had landed on the lawn at the White House versus William S. Brooksman just killed himself.

Everyone would say that no one would believe the William S. Brooksman story. Everyone would believe A. Einstein. There's no one saw this coming. No one would, my father was not, there was no signs. There was nothing. It was just like you woke up one day and tried to have had enough. Okay, goodbye everybody. First of all, it was, and that was it. It almost was that simple, but clearly it's not.

It was a terrible day. And from there, I began my own investigation. I didn't know why as you killed yourself. There was nothing else, nothing else for me to do. And all my focus took over in my life for five years and it's six years now. Yeah, so I mean, I used to be in a musician's like I had another world before that. I used to use it every day, I had a band, the 30th, 2011 song recorded in the release. But now it's all gone. Nothing. Now it's just

solved this mystery. Why is my guy killing stuff? What happened? What's the truth? And the first step was find out in his emails. What's in his emails? That's what I did. And I had to, you know, it wasn't easy. My family is, you know, my mother and my sister, you know, could be some people usually, but the child should do it. That's kind of fucked everybody up in their own way, you know. Yeah, and you don't suspect any foul play with this.

I mean, I know I've heard, I think this is recently actually a third Deutsche Bank loan officer who had died by suicide in Malibu at the age of 55. And before that, it was, I think, somebody named Gambino. And I think, if I remember from the article, you were saying that you didn't suspect any foul play whatsoever. It's not entirely true. I did for the first year and a half, I was convinced, it was not true, so that you was in fact murdered by extortion. It's a long story of how I got to that conclusion, but ultimately it was just I didn't want to believe that you killed themselves.

That was it. And in this next clip, I ask Val, if it wasn't foul play, what did you conclude about the circumstances surrounding your father's death? And Val talks here about depression and how his father's work wasn't the entire reason behind him taking his own life, but he says it was part of it. I concluded that my father was, uh, unhappy.

I have to tell you the same. Look, my mom, I love it. She's not even going to get along with me. I'm a, I like to think I'm a decent person. I'm not even going to get along with it. As a sister, and my guy, he's, he's retiring as well as flipping the fireman and all of me was this world of thanking. All the people that hurt you bank that he worked with those were his friends, the second family.

He had retired twice before and this was now his third retirement. So he kind of hated the job but he loved it at the same time. And he wanted to move on to something else, you know what that was. It was, there's yeah, sort of, but you know, when, uh, remember when Robin was going to kill himself? Yes, I do. And a lot of celebrities went on the air and they talked about depression. There was this one guy, he was the late night talk show from the 70s, things that kept it. And he gave it interview and said, there was this one time in my life where I was very depressed

and I was thinking about telling myself in it. And what it was, it wasn't that I was so over-harmed with emotion and sadness and all I saw was negativity. No, there was nothing like that. It was that I felt nothing. I looked it on, I looked it on my wife and I know I love my wife and I look at her and I know I love her but I don't feel anything. I see my children and I know I love my children but I didn't feel anything.

There was nothing that was done and it scared me. It scared me to get the shit out of me and And it's a, that's, in the last, it's a question time. And you thought it would never leave. And that's when we came to the closest to killing himself. And I suspect that that is something that my father might be at that time as well. I see. But when you read through his notes, it's a good, different.

The suicide notes are left who are very, So, I think there is notes, it's a good different. The suicide notes are left who are very, ah, it's a very, I mean they were emotional and they were, they felt rushed, because like, you know, under the, we had to get these things out quickly before something happened. And this is partly why I thought for a while, it was a sort of forced to kill himself,

which is again, entirely interior. But there was a sort of force to kill himself, which is again entirely interior. But there was a feeling of self hatred and this rushed foreign act and had to get all this out. And when I tell everybody everything except the reason why he was wanting to say goodbye, he would not say why and be doing it. And that's what kind of like to be misused at all. So I don't know, you, you know, you can know, I mean, and so, Adrian, in your darkest hours, you know, you think certain things, you feel certain

things, and so as do I, everyone listening to this has gone through a point of their lives that they feel, you know, they've had enough of it. They want to feel this anymore. They want to feel more, or whatever it is. Yeah, you can't really pin it down to one thing. And it's hard to make sense of. It's just hard to make sense of. So now? Yes. But to get to your point, yes. Part of it was work. And that is true. And that's the part that David's explaining right now.

It's exploited in the article and it's been exploiting his book. But it's not the entire truth, but yeah, it's a part of it. Everyone, we need to take a quick break for words from our sponsors.

That's Jordan, H-A-R, Binge R, in Apple Podcasts, or wherever you're listening now. Everybody, welcome back. I am Rearion Clips from an interview that I was able to find that I did in 2019

with Deutsche Bank whistleblower, Val Bruxmitt. And I asked Val in this next clip about the reporting on Lawrence O'Donnell that Russia was actually lending to a Deutsche Bank subsidiary. He had to retract that. Lawrence did, but I think that there was some truth in that. And Val certainly says there was he. He says he wasn't Lawrence's source and that he had been asked a lot about that but his documents show that VTB which is a Russia bank which is now sanctioned under wrote Trump's loans DBTC a Deutsche Bank Trust Company of America is a subsidiary of Deutsche Bank is where the money was laundered and that McKellough Vysala was involved. And then he pulls a document while I'm talking to him

that VTB complains to DBTCA that they won't pay them, pay someone for over a technical error. So they withheld money from DBTCA until they corrected it. And this was during sanctions. When VTB wasn't supposed to be doing any business with DB, with Deutsche Bank, or its subsidiaries, VTB was't supposed to be doing any business with DB, with Deutsche Bank, or its subsidiaries, VTB was sanctioned at this time. Deutsche Bank tried to get Val's dad to sit on the board of DBTCA, come out of retirement,

and he did, to fix their issues. So during the last three months of his life, Val's father's life, he was at DBTCA. And his documents show 27 billion dollars flowing through DBTCA per month. And then Val talks about Trump's loan for his Chicago tower. Bank of America turned him down, JPMorgan said no, but Deutsche Bank said yes. And he brings up Rosemary Verveilich, who put the deal together.

Keep in mind, she's under investigation by Deutsche Bank and has since retired, because I think of that investigation. Let's listen to this clip. I wanted to ask you, I know that Lawrence O'Donnell on his show had come out one night and said that he had had reporting from one source that said that Donald Trump, there's briefs that Russian's had co-signed on loans for Donald Trump through Deutsche Bank. Because Deutsche Bank was the only bank that was lending to Donald Trump at this point.

And then he retracted that story. And when I first read the article by David, the thing that struck me the most outside of anything else that he said was that you had this trove of very, very important documents. And I wanted to ask you if there was anything to ask you taught yourself and educated yourself about finance and banking. Was there anything in there that maybe indicated that there were any truble loans that might have been co-signed by Russians? Yes.

And no. And yes, mostly. I assume you can't go into too much detail, right? Look, I can tell you that, you know what? Why not? You know, you're good people, why not? I'll just tell you. Okay. So, I didn't do, I was not Lawrence Adonis source. People keep asking me this. You're not the first person. This is a lot of reporters have been calling me absolutely with me. No, for the record, it was not me. But look, yes.

So the BTV under wrote Trump's book, all right? Well, did Trump know about it? Probably not. Did he care? Probably, absolutely not. Deutsche Bank has a relationship with BTV because back for a very long time, BTV as you know is the state-run Russian bank. This three-bank of Moscow before the STO, I guess you could call him STO, was victed from

his job in the country and then it was sort of a hostile takeover and GTV took over and became the state bank for a lecture, which includes Prutnik and his oligarchs and in a circle, got a circle as every fucking circle at their age. Yeah, we were actually wondering if VTB was the bank that Iuller had subpoenaed uh... uh... accompany from country a which was a secret battle was kept under wraps and they have u.s. office and we only knew a few clues and we thought that might be the tv and and and and and connection with this but i mean who knows now it's don't think

i should i probably don't know yet yeah it's don't okay sorry sorry i think it's don't you it that. Yeah, it's Don's. Okay, sorry, sorry guys, it's Don's, the people are going to be angry with me. It's Don's good bank, yes, he's a peanut. But that was from money laundering as most of these, the peanuts have been for money laundering. Any amount of people are out there doing their job and doing very good job out of it, by the way. Yeah, so it's definitely.

Yeah, the basketball bench relationship with Deutsche Bank is extensively well, it's very interesting, convoluted. I have this, I'm seeing a breach report that sort of shows where all the Deutsche Bank's money is held, what's owed, is dropped liquidity really, and Deutsche Bank's been in breach consistently, and they rarely fix it. One thing I just want to make sure that you know that there's a difference between Deutsche Bank, as we call Deutsche Bank, Deutsche Bank AG, and there's another subsidiary, really it's kind of its own entities called DBTCAA and that's Deutsche Bank Trust Company of America

and that's where all the nasty stuff really happens. Deutsche Bank AG is pretty much on the level and well I mean relatively so. Right. We've got their issues like again, Michele Faisal that he's not related to DBTCA, he's Dutch bank AG, and he's the first banker to have a prison sentence, and he pushed upon him for five years. So that's a whole nothing. That's the multi-deposky essentially. But now Trump and U2B, U2B, I'm looking at his documents here? Where's that document? Where the GTP has, it's complaining to DBCCA saying, you guys screwed up and we're going to, we owe this company called United ROM materials and we're not going to pay them because

you did not put our spell on the incorrect. Like, you didn't finish the, it's United Raw Material Company LLC, and DVTCA says, oh, it's United Raw Material. VTV says, we're gonna withhold money from R, from the OU and to your account, which is actually our account in DVTC until you correct this. So, I mean, it's clear proof of this happening. Now, did this happen during sanctions when VTV was not supposed to be doing any business?

When Deutsche Bank? Possibly, maybe that's something I'm going to tell everybody later. Not right now, I'll leave a little bit for the imagination for the second moment. But yes, the BTB has had a long standing relationship with DVTCA. Now, part of this is why it's important to me personally, is because my father, when he tried to retire for the third time, on shoe and the power to be the way in letter. I mean, of course, you have the zone three, or you could have done what you wanted,

but they said, oh, look, instead of going for a vote on it, why don't you go back home to Newark with the family, spend time with the family, but come to DVTCA, sit on the board, be the headboard number, sit there until and fix this place up, you know, there's need to be out of control. And You know, it's just, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, a chance to work and do something a bit different. So the last four months of his life, he was at DBTCA. And I had emails, fun emails, fun emails,

and he was just upset and angry at how things are being run. And for example, there is $47 billion flowing through DBTCA per month, and there's no CFO. Wow. Okay. It's insane what's happening there. It's a mess. I'm sorry to interrupt you.

I have a question for you. If VTB was underwriting these Deutsche Bank loans, the Trump and Trump didn't know, why would that make Trump so desperate to not let this out? I mean, if he didn't know, and that's on Deutsche Bank for using a VTB to underwrite their loans, I mean, what, do you think there's something else that Deutsche Bank has on Trump that is more like that would actually pin him to corrupt

intent or anything like that? Well, corrupt intent, well, yes, of course. But when I say Trump didn't know, I mean like at the time at the moment. So, for example, Trump's, I can't believe I don't have enough don't have money, but let's say the Chicago loan, right? Trump takes out, there's 260 million, or it was a 200 million, I don't know off top of my head. But he says, okay, I need money for this Chicago thing that no one's going to want in their city. So, somebody give me $250 million, and Bank of America is like, no, sorry, customer else. JP Morgan is like, ah, Trump? No, no, we heard about you. Everybody, but don't you

think? Nobody would touch him. No, but Deutsche Bank says, yes, of course, come in, come hither, you know, but the reason that they do is because of the genius of one woman named Rosemary for ballet. She was the private banker that handled all of this. She packaged every deal together and she did so with, you know, it's sad to say this, but Tom Bowers and unfortunately he's dead as well. He killed himself a few weeks ago. As you know and Scott studied and reported. I actually gave Scott that story. That's what Scott Tom Bowers is dead. It was surprised. I don't believe it. This is the Malibu. This is the Malibu.

Yeah. Yeah. I asked him to take a look at it because I know Scouts is really good with public information. And it's like, can you get a little more in, like how the fuck did he die? What happened? And Scouts gets back to me. Just in my mouth, I jaw dropped. He said it was a death by hanging.

Yeah. I couldn't believe it. But yeah, Tom Bowris was rosemary's boss so he would sign off and everything now rosemary was like it's just brilliant she had i think she like three billion dollars worth of client money and she managed and this is before trump and she was already super star to it's banked it's our dbtc

uh... before trump got in the picture and when he did uh... she was happy to have him. She was very, you know, and this is a public figure. He was kind of a joke, you know, although, you know, a joke is a joke, but he's still a public figure and a public figure can leverage that for lots of money, apparently $250 million worth of loans and go ahead and say, right? So she packaged you the deal together, and Tom, okay, is it? And look, I don't want to, I'm not looking for cleaning Tom.

He's a good dude, and I don't know what happened, but it's wife's a six to ten years, and he years. You can't speak for what I, you know, I mean, do you help me out here? Yeah, no, I know exactly what you mean. You know, this isn't, you know, we're not your past judgment on Tom. So these are the three or four major clips that came out of the first half of this interview.

I have another 20 or 30 minutes or so from this interview that I'll go over next week on Mueller, she wrote. Just looking at some other news that I wanted to bring to light from the New York Times, the headline is Trump Complete Sale of Washington Hotel to Investor. And this is basically the Trump International Hotel in DC. It's now officially out of business after the Trump family. On Wednesday of last week, completed its sale to a Miami investor group, which plans to reopen it as a wall door of a story. The sale formally ended the Trump family business presence in Washington,

although the family company still owns a golf course in northern Virginia. The deal with the investor group, CGI merchant group, uh, for a reported price of 375 million, which is way overvalued, covers only the operation of the hotel, which is housed in a building leased from the federal government. We know it's the old post office. The new owners moved quickly to take control of the hotel, sending a crew out after dark on Wednesday to begin taking down the Trump signs, starting with the gold-plated family name above the main entrance.

Hotel industry executives who said the hotel is underperformed, compared with other luxury hotels in the city, particularly since Donald Trump left office, in part because some companies and travelers were reluctant to book rooms or hold events given the controversy surrounding Trump, and nobody's trying to buy his access anymore or his influence, those factors most likely contributed to the decision to sell the lease. The 263-room hotel still pulled an exceptionally high sale price, as I said, given its location on Pennsylvania Avenue, between the White House and the Capitol. I've walked past it and flipped it off many times.

It's presence inside a Washington landmark, the old post office building, whose clock tower makes it one of the tallest buildings in the capital area.
