  6. Sometime in the last 100 minutes (actually hours now that I took the time to read it) the filing happened. So here it is, Doc 89 from #Trump v. #IRS and the #Jan6 #SlushFund fake #settlement by the #ToddBlanche #DOJ.

    The motion title is preposterous as you only get so many bites at the apple.

    The document is signed by Alejandro Brito and Daniel Z. Epstein Trump's run-of-the-mill Florida and D.C. lawyers. Also by Richard C. Klugh, Trump's muscle lawyer for criminal defense and appellate issues. I think I have an opinion as to who wrote most of this.

    On the issues of #collusion / #trueAdversity

    • The suit has merit (if you ignore the gap between requested relief and the statutory cap *and* the statute of limitations since the date Trump's own lawyer made public announcements about Littlejohn's leaks) (p. 18)
    • The Biden IRS issued a press release saying *Trump's IRS* failed to prevent the leak and that security was improved , again on Biden's watch. (p. 18)
    • It's really adverse since *some* of the plaintiffs (being Trump's family and business holdings) aren't even in government (p. 19)
    • The claims, moreover, presented genuine legal complexity, so complex that the DOJ didn't bother to show up or argue (p. 19)
    • Just because all parties agreed on one legal question, doesn't mean that there wasn't #trueAdversity, just no evidence of adversity. (pp. 19–20)
    • Just because 35 retired judges and the present judge think there is every appearance of collusion doesn't mean you have evidence of collusion. Where's your evidence? (p. 20)
    • They ignore that it has every appearance of a manufactured fake controversy and not a real one.

  7. THE MOST embarrassing T**** sycophant #CarnivalCruz is not on-board with #MafiaDon's $1.8B #SlushFund to turn his #Brownshirts into Millionaires.

    "The entire meeting, people were screaming at acting #AG #ToddBlanche."
