    Pre-trial conference in Floyd v. Department of Justice (26-cv-01399) District Court, E.D. Virginia shifted back another week to 2026/07/22.

    This is the lawsuit against the #Jan6 #SlushFund which #ToddBlanche was given a chance to nope out of just by saying (in a sworn statement) that the idea was dead and gone, and he got all huffy.

    Is this rescheduling because of the magistrate judge's schedule or DOJ staffing issues?

  2. #DickDurbin opened with an impassioned rebuke of #ToddBlanche’s role in creating a $1.8 billion compensation #SlushFund for purported victims of #DOJ “weaponization” under Biden — & slammed him signing off on a deal to shield #Trump & his family from #tax investigations. “One of your first official actions as Acting Attorney General was establishing a nearly $2 billion slush fund to benefit January 6 cop-beaters while immunizing Trump from IRS liability,” he said.

  3. Yesterday, Judge #Brinkema in #Floyd v. #DOJ explained why #ToddBlanche is completely wrong that his unsworn assurances are sufficient to render the lawsuit against the #SlushFund moot and so it must proceed, perhaps with depositions of the very people for whom Blanche's flailing about the separation of powers was meant to shield.

  4. Why doesn't this lead to Donald Trump's impeachment already? Has the Overton window widened so much that our sensibilities have become dull to the fact that this obvious slush fund makes every American endlessly taxable? Will someone please go stop the wrecking ball that is currently in motion before it wreaks further havoc? reason.com/2026/05/21/trumps-c

  5. 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?

  7. [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.

    "“Let’s call this what it is: a billion-dollar #SlushFund for Trump to reward #felons, #insurrectionists, & #cronies, paid for by YOUR #TaxpayerDollars,” "

    Necessary edit:

    "“Let’s call this what it is: a billion-dollar #SlushFund for #Trump to pay for Trump's #PrivateMilitia, paid for by YOUR taxpayer dollars”"

  9. “Let’s call this what it is: a billion-dollar #SlushFund for #Trump to reward #felons, #insurrectionists, & cronies, paid for by YOUR taxpayer dollars,” Democratic Sen. Chris Coons, a member of the subcommittee from Delaware, wrote on X. “It’s bad enough that this #DOJ believes it works for Donald Trump. Now, it’s giving him its budget to use as his piggy bank.”
