Two Florida businessmen tied to Donald Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani have been arrested on campaign finance violations over a $325,000 donation to a PAC supporting the president.

This Facebook screen shot provided by The Campaign Legal Center, shows from left, Donald Trump, Jr., Tommy Hicks, Jr., Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, posted on May 21, 2018.

Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman were arrested on a four-count indictment that includes charges of conspiracy, making false statements to the Federal Election Commission and falsification of records. The indictment says Parnas and Fruman “sought to advance their personal financial interests and the political interests of at least one Ukrainian government official with whom they were working” and took steps to conceal it from third parties, including creditors. They created a limited liability corporation, Global Energy Producers, and “intentionally caused certain large contributions to be reported in the name of GEP instead of in their own names,” according to the indictment.

The money enabled the relatively unknown entrepreneurs to quickly gain access to the highest levels of the Republican Party, including face-to-face meetings with Trump at the White House and Mar-a-Lago in Florida.

Weren’t there a bunch of ongoing investigations that the Mueller Report couldn’t disclose? Is this the “real” Mueller Report starting to come together?

This is not newsworthy and distracts from real news.

“Florida businessmen” 😂

Of course, trump doesn't know them, but donnie does!!!

hillary clinton would be a welcome change as president.

Oh, DonaldJTrumpJr ...he will never love you, no matter how hard to try.

Right Trump 😂

Government of the people, for the people, and by the people of Russia...

Old man’s plan backfiring😂

Everyone is tied to someone. Big whoop!

Hail, I mean Hell, to the FAT CATs . . .

LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH!

Stages of trump gaslighting: 1. Outright denial 2. The news is fake but the leaks are real 3. It happened, but it was perfect 4. It happened, but it wasn't illegal 5. It might have been illegal, but it's not impeachable 6. We need to investigate Hillary and Biden

I see they're friends of the Trump family

U.S. attorney says Rudy Giuliani associates charged in campaign finance probe were arrested attempting to leave the country.

The great TV series ever.

None of the laws apply to Trump. He and his cronies just flaunt their disrespect for our judicial system.

Get Rudy and Trump

*insert Nickelback's 'Look at this photograph.'*

.DonaldJTrumpJr oh my! Without the beard this really does look like you! Your stench is palpable.

Corrompu 👎🤮

Hahhahaahahahahahhahahahaah 😂😂😂😂😂💕💕💕💕💕

Who’da thought

'Great' Picks Giuliani

How many want to bet that 45 or Giuliani will call this “fake news” ?

Oooooh take down Don Jr!

Accomplices?!?! 🤔 The plot thickens.

So nothing ever came from Rosie publicly admitting she was violating campaign finance laws? Cool story bro.

INVESTIGATE DonaldJTrumpJr he’s obviously tied to all these crimes...he’s a Trump after all! ImpeachTrump TraitorTrump resist

Shocker!

More guilty until proven innocent?

And by businessmen you mean conmen.

NO COLLUSION!

What time is Don Jr and Rudy getting booked any bets?

Is that DJTJ? Hope he’s the next one arrested.

guiliani ColludyRudy TrumpGenocide TrumpImpeachment TrumpMadeISISGreatAgain

Hi DonaldJTrumpJr DiaperDon - proof that you’re a crook. Your time is up. Grab your diapers and familiarize yourself with Alcatraz. It’s where you’ll be spending the rest of your life 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Maybe Don Jr. and Sr. Trump will be the next to be arrested. Every day something new.

And in other news Hitler breathe air. And he drink water. I heard mainstream media also breathes air and drink water they are related. Mainstream media is equal to Hitler they are all Nazis then

Great!! Now do the Podesta brothers!

In other news, Vice President Biden’s son, was being paid $50,000 a month as a bribe by a corrupt Ukrainian gas company.

OMG there you guys go with your fake news

JaredRizzi Easy. Get $ out of politics. Less propaganda campaigns, less underground deals, etc.

Oh look who's with them! Trump crime family

Why do folks associated with RG or POTUS keep getting arrested or indicted ?

Dig Fredo way over there on the left.

Pictured with Don jr

Which one was Gov. Ron DeSantis's fundraiser?

Greed, and Profits at the expense of our Country

They consider themselves above the law

lol because trump is the ONLY politician / business person that is associated with this kind of thing.

this is a set up by the Justice Dept. Now these men will plead the 5th before congress since under indictment. John Dowd Trump’s former lawyer is their attorney and he now has an out why his clients will not testify or give congress documents. These charges will go away later

GOP swamp creatures caught on camera!

This is an asinine crime. If these guys had this time of money to burn to get political connections, why not just attend a fundraiser? Or were they too low class to know any of the millionaires organizing fundraisers for Trump?

“I don’t know those guys. I think they’re friends of ummm I um OBAMA... OBAMA.”

And away we go.......

impeachment moving forward..yes 👍

Go figure.

Question. Has anyone seen the trump's birth certificates? They are acting in the best interest of foreign countries like Russia, Turkey, Saudi Arabia. Are you sure they are U.S. Citizens? All this extortion, genocide, money laundering and campaign finance violation is suspect.

Now go follow the Ed Buck money.

What a great pic

Breakfast of champions? Nope. Breakfast of Foiled-Fools. ...and Rudy poured...

WATCH IT, THE GUARD DOGS ARE LOOSE AND DO EVERYTHING AT THEIR DISPOSAL TO DESTROY TRUMP, WATCH IT, THIS STORY IS MAKE HIM AND GIULIANI LOOK BAD, DON'T TRUST THEM.

Is this our version of them 'accidentally' falling out a window?

Of course Dowd is their lawyer! 😂

Ooopsie.

Jr. is in that pic too add him to the mix.

Awww.

ilhan omar misused campaign funds to pay for an affair to a married man....

Asshole Press can't report with their liberal socialist bias in the headlines!

RudyGuiliani really sucks at 'fighting corruption' 😂

Junior lacks a discernible chin. And any quality that makes a human decent.

🎶 Lock them up... 🎶

He doesn’t come down to Florida for the weather, this swamp is full of trump corruption and Ukrainians

RICO

When it's a conservative, they are arrested. When it's a Democrat like Omar, who not only committed campaign finance, but immigration fraud as well, they are are given a $250 fine.

is disgusting you didn’t do anything over JoeBiden or HillaryClinton they are the liars and thrives and the is drinking the Kool aid

And yet, $84 million laundered and not a soul arrested.

It's getting closer. We are on the last inning of the ball game. 😉

$325K? Just a reminder: in 2015 James O'Keefe held a press conference to alert everyone that Hillary Clinton's campaign illegally accepted a whopping $75 after Project Veritas nerds goaded a Canadian woman into buying campaign memorabilia.

Ignore your eyes and ears

Certainly a President so committed to eliminating corruption will be very concerned by this.

Why look it is a son of a POTUS, DonaldJTrumpJr 🤔 He should be investigated too, right GOP!

How does that happen? trump loyalists attested in this day and age

This seems...important.

planned parenthood announced they were donating $45 million to different PACs, I guess they´re next?

More importantly, the two men sought to use their connections to Giuliani to get the Ukrainian state gas company, Naftogaz, to replace members of their board of directors because they wanted their business to profit. Biden FoxNews HunterBiden

who's that 4th guy? the guy w/o a chin? he looks incredibly dumb

Why is it the Trumps are friends with multiple Foreign Nationalists charged with laundering Russian money into realDonaldTrump and other GOP campaigns? Weird.........

Lemme put on my shocked face

I am going to need dramamine for the FOX spin

Damn, those DeepState guys are running scared. Are all Patriots doomed for the gulags?

This is so shocking 🤪

AP is so far in the Dem’s pocket. They are still pissed about the rejection of the Hildabeast!

Wow! Shoes starting to really drop!!!

Paid in Rubles?

here's my shocked face :^|

Rosie O donnald

In before the onslaught of Russian bots and supporters of the Traitor in Chief proclaim 'fake news.'

Rudy in a orange jumpsuit would make my day!

DonaldJTrumpJr you up?

Don’t be dumb, they were arrested to keep them from testifying.

And this has something to do with the mayor? No

Sounds like what was done to DineshDSouza — wow, the left is really out to retaliate.

Dining and consorting with DonaldJTrumpJr just a few months ago, hmmm. The evidence of family corruption mounts.

Absolutely shocked

The president and his followers in the senate are surely deeply concerned about this corruption.

“Tied to” LOL

Score one for the good guys
