  3. Still, even in its new form, #ToddBlanche’s order for the #IRS to abandon any audits of #Trump’s previous tax returns is an
    unprecedented & “potentially” (definitely) illegal benefit to a sitting president, worth tens of millions of dollars in lower taxes & avoided penalties.

  5. The unsigned #IRS document posted by #ToddBlanche said that only #Trump, 2 of his sons & the #TrumpOrganization would be granted #immunity from audits, excluding a broader pool of Trump family members & their associates who appeared to be eligible for protection under the original #DOJ deal. Blanche also stipulated that their future tax returns could still be audited.

  9. The Samson Strategy: How the Tinubu Government Pulled the Temple Down on Itself Over PFIPC by Lawson Akhigbe

    The Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration appears to have forgotten that rule in its handling of the Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council (PFIPC) controversy. In its determination to destroy the credibility of one man, Prince Adeniyi Matthew Adeyemi, it may have inflicted collateral damage on something far more valuable: the credibility of official government documentation itself.

  11. The tax provision emerged as the biggest sticking point on the eve of a scheduled #Judiciary Cmte vote. Cornyn, a former state #judge who lost a primary to a #Trump backed challenger, Ken Paxton [total POS], said he had received no written assurances from #ToddBlanche that the #IRS audit shield would not apply to future tax liabilities or be extended to a wider circle of people.

  13. IS Responds to Military Pressure in Nigeria

    Despite Nigeria's assessment, the emerging consensus was that Lakurawa was not a unified entity but rather an umbrella term, and that attacks attributed to the group were likely perpetrated by a mix of Islamic State Sahel Province (ISSP). JNIM, bandits. and potentially a separate new group operating under the label without claiming responsibility.

  15.

    #Judiciary has become just a tool supporting the ruling regime.

  19. I feel the youth of India have stopped trusting it's " judicial system" & the "elected government".

    They both are at the mercy of the wrath of the youth, unless some mass killing or crackdown takes place.

  21. #ToddBlanche’s confirmation hearing to become the 88th attorney general of the United States began with #Senate #Judiciary Committee #ChuckGrassley, #Republican of Iowa, welcoming him & giving opening remarks, followed by the tanking #Democrat on the committee, #DickDurbin of Illinois.

    Durbin’s remarks were worth hearing, the rest not so much. Grassley’s were prebuttal & defensive, Blanche’s were all lies.

    Sadly Durbin is retiring. He’s very good, but he is advanced in his years.

  24. Dugan resigned the Milwaukee County circuit judgeship she had held for 9 years in January amid #threats of impeachment from #Republican state lawmakers who labeled her an activist judge. In her resignation letter, she said her prosecution threatened “the independence of our #judiciary.” Republican US Rep Tom Tiffany, a fierce #Trump loyalist running for #Wisconsin governor, urged authorities to “lock her up” on social media following her conviction.

  25. So let me get this right: a #Labour government is releasing early #sexoffenders, (who should be called sex #criminals, it is a crime, not a mere offence), including those who r*ped CHILDREN, to make room in #prisons for people accused of #terrorism for throwing paint at armement companies profiteering from #genocide in #Palestine.
    #Women's lives in the UK are worth less than cosmetic damage to property.
