      Oh, they talk about it in the documentary Active Measures (2018) when discussing Donald Trump doing it with commercial real estate and iirc, the mob/mafia. McCain and Hillary Clinton are in that doc. I’m looking for a link to the full documentary and will update this comment if I find it.

          I couldn’t find the free full (legal) version on YT anymore. It was free about a month ago. Sorry about that. You can of course find it through the usual other means

            Well, I lived near a mn+ per year broker and he was sketchy. One of his clients was eventually convicted for tax evasion and got ten years, so while I didn’t ask a lot of questions, I did always wonder. I was just wondering the potential mechanisms. Thanks. I’ll sort something.
