Palm House EB‑5 project marketed with Trump and Clinton names now a $91M fraud case

Palm House EB‑5 project marketed with Trump and Clinton names now a $91M fraud case The passage links high‑profile political figures (Donald Trump, Bill and Hillary Clinton) to a real‑estate EB‑5 development that appears to have defrauded foreign investors. It provides concrete details – project name, $91 M budget, bankruptcy sale price, marketing dates (2012‑2019) and the involvement of a known real‑estate firm (London & Regional Properties). These specifics give investigators clear avenues (financial records, EB‑5 filings, advisory board contracts) while the controversy is high due to the political names. However, the claim that the Clintons and Trump were on the advisory board is unverified and may be promotional material, limiting the score to the moderate‑high range. Key insights: EB‑5 visa‑linked hotel‑condo project called "Palm House" marketed to Chinese, Iranian and Turkish investors in 2012.; Marketing brochures featured photos of the Clintons and Donald Trump as advisory board members.; Celebrity names (Celine Dion, Tony Bennett, Bill Koch) were also used to promote the project.
