    Unless you are wealthy, The #US is now largely what we used to call a "third world nation".

    #Kleptocracy
    #Fascism
    #oligarchy
    #EpsteinClass

    #theocracy and #Propaganda are tools of the #aristocracy to impoverish and disable #civilSociety

    And fuck #philanthropy btw.

    #Billionaires should be taxed at 90% and we could spend it on infrastructure, #renewable power generation, infrastructure, and hardening..

  7. 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.

  8. #Trump & his family have spent decades aggressively avoiding #taxes…. The newly won ability to escape from #IRS examinations could be worth tens of millions of dollars∶ One audit, ongoing in the days before the new #immunity for Trump was announced, could have resulted in a bill from the government exceeding $100 million, NYT has reported. Other authorities have had questions, too∶ In 2022, the #TrumpOrganization was convicted of #TaxFraud in #NewYork.

  9. #Republicans appear to be in a holding pattern while they figure out how to address the issue of the $1.8 billion #SlushFund. We are still waiting on votes from 3 Republicans: #BillCassidy of Louisiana, #JonHusted of Ohio & #DanSullivan of Alaska.

    Husted & Sullivan are both up for re-election. Cassidy recenty lost his primary to a Trump-backed challenger.

  10. USA circa 2026: A dangerous mix of #Kleptocracy, #Idiocracy, and #Plutocracy:

    "US tax authorities will be barred from pursuing claims against Donald Trump, his eldest sons and the Trump Organization under an agreement to halt the president’s $10bn lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service.

    The pledge by the Department of Justice on Tuesday came a day after Trump agreed to settle his lawsuit against the IRS in exchange for the US government launching a $1.8bn fund for victims of alleged “lawfare”.

    “The United States RELEASES, WAIVES, ACQUITS, and FOREVER DISCHARGES each of the Plaintiffs from, and is hereby FOREVER BARRED and PRECLUDED from prosecuting or pursuing, any and all claims,” wrote acting attorney-general Todd Blanche in a one-page document released on Tuesday, in relation to the case brought in January by Trump, his sons Donald Trump Jr and Eric Trump, and the Trump Organization.

    A DoJ spokesperson told the FT that the decision to bar the IRS from pursuing claims against Trump was “only with respect to any existing audits”.

    “There would be little point in settling several significant claims if either party could simply turn around and seek to initiate more adverse claims that could have been pursued previously,” added the spokesperson."

  11. We now have a transaction that is corrupt self-dealing simply unheard of in United States history:

    Nonilex -- @Nonilex

    "This is a FOREVER thing!

    As part of the #settlement agreement, the #US is “forever barred & precluded” from examining or prosecuting #Trump, his sons & the #TrumpOrganization’s current #tax issues, according to the one-page document posted to the #DOJ’s website on Tuesday.

    "...the US is “forever barred & precluded” from examining or prosecuting Trump, his sons & the TrumpOrganization’s current #tax issues..."

    "forever barred"

    This is not "get out of jail free"

    It's nothing less than "continue your corruption for as much as you can steal, for as long as you can continue stealing it"

    Is there simply no way to control, to rein-in such obvious Trump Family corruption?

  13. [This is effing nuts. We KNOW #Trump cheated on his #taxes. Just look at the NY v #TrumpOrganization lawsuit where he was found liable for decades of #fraud.]

    In a one-page document signed by acting AG #ToddBlanche & quietly posted on the #DOJ website, officials vowed not to pursue any matters, including those involving Trump’s tax returns, that are currently pending.

  14. The #MAGASlushFund would represent not only a highly unorthodox resolution but also a further demonstration of the admin’s eagerness to reward allies who before #Trump came to #power were investigated & in many cases charged & #convicted. Most notably, Trump on his first day back in office pardoned or commuted the sentences of supporters who violently attacked the US Capitol on #Jan6, 2021.

  15. #Malaysia’s #Najib drops appeal to serve #1MDB-linked prison sentence under house arrest
    "one of te world’s largest #kleptocracy cases.. 🇲🇾 & US investigators say at least US$4.5 billion was #stolen.. On Dec 26, Najib was also found #guilty & sentenced to 15 years in #prison in a separate major trial, where he was #convicted of 25 charges related to the 1MDB scandal. The charges included 21 counts of #moneylaundering & four counts of abuse of power"
    👉 May he rot in #jail.⚖️

  16. A #Trump hotel in #Oman. A tower in #India. A #GolfCourse near Riyadh, #SaudiArabia. These are just a few of the >20 overseas projects the #TrumpOrganization is pursuing, often requiring cooperation with foreign governments [um, #FARA folks???]. These deals have made a minimum of millions for the #Trumps…. And the admin has treated those exact same governments favorably.

  17. A review by the NYT editorial board relying on analyses from #news organizations [with strict #JournalisticStandards requiring a minimum of 2 #reliable #sources to report on any single matter]…shows that #Trump has [ab]used the office of the presidency to make at least $1.4 billion.

  28. #Peltz, who was 81 at the time & made his fortune via junk bonds & leveraged buyouts, had gathered some traditional high rollers, including the hedge-fund manager #JohnPaulson & the Las Vegas casino #tycoon #SteveWynn, as well as #RonnaMcDaniel, then the chair of the #RNC. He had also invited #ElonMusk.
