Two hours ago the FBI raided a political firm in Annapolis, Maryland by the name of Strategic Campaign Group. Palmer Report’s own research team has since been able to determine that the firm in question has ties to Trump campaign advisers Paul Manafort and Roger Stone (link). But it turns out the firm also has ties to Donald Trump’s Taj Mahal casino – which has suddenly come into focus this month for its past federal penalties for money laundering.

The article admits that they made up the "ties":

There is no guarantee that the FBI’s raid of Strategic Campaign Group today is due to its connections to Paul Manafort and Roger Stone.

An (false) accusation without evidence damages the accuser, not the accused.

How does that indicate they made up the "ties"? That simply states that those ties are not necessarily why the FBI raided the firm, which is a pretty reasonable statement to toss out there when you don't have confirmation from the FBI one way or the other.
