A secret bank account?

Bad luck for Donald Trump, who presents himself as the man who opposed the Chinese ... The

New York Times

unveiled on Tuesday an investigation claiming that the American president not only has a bank account in China, but that he Y tried to do personal business during his tenure ... It is by sifting through the tax returns of the American billionaire, that the newspaper would have made this discovery.

Before being elected head of state, Donald Trump would have opened a branch in China and a bank account controlled by his company Trump International Hotels Management.

According to the group's lawyer interviewed by the New York daily, this company "opened an account with a Chinese bank, having offices in the United States, in order to pay its taxes".

"No agreement, transaction or other commercial activity has materialized and, since 2015, this account has remained inactive", continued the council.

Donald Trump regularly attacks Joe Biden through his son.

Hunter Biden, accused of corruption by the US president, currently sits on the board of directors of a Chinese company.

Can these revelations harm Donald Trump?

Barack "is back"

He had been quiet until now.

This Wednesday marks the appearance of Barack Obama in the Democratic campaign, and for that, he chose a key state: Pennsylvania, whose vote was sorely missed by the donkey party in 2016. Democrats hope not to reproduce a such a disappointment this year.

drive-in

mode

 : everyone stays in their car.

Barack Obama returns to Philadelphia today for his first in-person 2020 campaign event for Joe Biden, speaking at a drive-in rally.

Why is support (in person, as he has already given his virtual support on several occasions) so late to Joe Biden?

Quite simply so as not to overshadow its former vice-president.

One of the challenges of the Democrat's campaign is to assert himself as a potential head of state, with presidential stature, and more as the "second man".

If Barack Obama had campaigned intensively, he could have overshadowed the candidate ... while playing the role of red rag for the Trump camp.

Donald Trump never misses an opportunity to attack the former president and his record.

After Pennsylvania, the former tenant of the White House is expected to travel to other key states to save the one who has become over the years more than a collaborator since bonds of friendship have developed between the Obama and Biden families. during the former Illinois senator's two terms.

Can Barack Obama strengthen Joe Biden's lead in the polls?

Mysterious threat emails

It is a very mysterious affair which is echoed by the American press… E-mails of threats would have been sent to democratic voters of Pennsylvania, Florida, Arizona and Alaska.

Several people in these two states indicated that they had received signed messages from the Proud Boys (a pro-Trump far-right group) telling them to vote for the outgoing US president: "You will vote for Donald Trump in the election or else we'll take care of you, ”the email said.

The spokesperson for the Proud Boys denied being the source of the messages.

Is this a hack?

The FBI is now investigating this story ...
