Trump ties dropping $10B IRS lawsuit to creation of $1.7B fund
Donald Trump sought creation of a $1.7 billion "weaponization" fund as a condition to drop his $10 billion lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service. The proposal would convert the court fight into establishment of a government-funded $1.7 billion account described as addressing "weaponization" of tax enforcement instead of pursuing the $10 billion litigation. If implemented, using taxpayer money to resolve a private high-value claim could set a precedent for settling major disputes outside court and raise concerns about politicizing enforcement resources.
Felon Trump wants to drop his $10 BILLION collusion lawsuit against the IRS in exchange for a $1.7 BILLION slush fund of taxpayer money to pay his allies & friends who allege they’ve been victims of Biden Administration “weaponization.” The latest on this grifty scheme. youtu.be/zhtODVVhTdc?...
Bet someone, somewhere is now writing “The Rise and Fall of the US Empire.”
When the hell will us average rubes out here get compensated for the mental distress, the loss of lives and livelihoods, that we’ve suffered under Trump? Anyone?
I’m gonna sue Trump for 100 bajillion dollars and then settle for a billion. (3d chess move)
Good G*d! He has no shame! None of them do!
He's setting up another insurrection. No doubt in my mind
Its the Bannon and Cohn technique
And you can count on the fact that he will get a personal cut of ANY funds that are given to those poor little victims.
Jesus with him. 🙄 I’d be okay with the full 10 billion and happily pay ten dollars per gallon for gas every day for 10 years but if and only if it meant he was to finally shut the fuck up and go the fuck away forever AND that none of his so-called children get into the poli-sci game ever again.
ABC News reports that Trump is set to drop his $10 billion lawsuit against IRS in exchange for DOJ creating a new $1.7 billion fund that will be used to pay "compensation" to Biden "victims." That could potentially include the Jan 6 insurrectionists. 2/ newrepublic.com/article/2105...
Here's the rub. The slush fund will be drawn from a larger Treasury Department fund. The latter compensates actual victims of the government. But the new one will be put under Trump's direct control in a new way and untangled from any oversight, Raskin notes. 3/ newrepublic.com/article/2105...
To, the most shocking thing is that he's not settling it for $4.7 billion.
WTF. FU Merrick Garland for not locking this guy up
tRump plans to drop his $10B IRS lawsuit in exchange for a $1.7B taxpayer slush fund paying Jan. 6 rioters, Oath Keepers & Proud Boys for “wrongful prosecution” by Biden. No congressional oversight. Entities tied to him could cash in too. mcsp.short.gy/hdq7
Absolutely not! Called my MOCs today to oppose his $10b lawsuit against the IRS. I’ll call tomorrow to oppose his proposed $1.78b taxpayer slush fund to pay his insurrectionists! 202-224-3121, 24/7/365
#1 criminal. He's gotta pay his secret army so they'll come back for a second insurrection. He's not gonna willingly leave....
