Sen. John Ossoff said about his Republican opponent Mike Collins:
"What he is saying to people of Georgia is after cutting their #healthcare, throwing 300,000 of them off their health insurance, doubling health insurance premiums for one million Georgians, he is then going to take their tax dollars and pay it out to violent criminals."

"let’s be very clear about what it [ #IRS deal/ #SlushFund ] really does. It’s a vehicle for Trump himself.... We’re talking about a potential waiver of tax investigations & audits into his own finances. With all of his schemes, that possibly covers BILLIONS of dollars in #tax liability. The cash for #January6th insurrectionists, as horrifying at it is, is also a cover story for #Trump to enrich himself"

#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.

"In response to Pres. Donald Trump’s $1.776 billion fund benefiting individuals connected to the #January6th attack on the U.S. Capitol, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed legislation implementing California’s response. The new law imposes a 100% California tax on distributions from the fund, ensuring California will not provide tax benefits associated with payments to individuals convicted of crimes related to the attack":

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. -

#Trump sat for an interview with “#MeetThePress” moderator #KristenWelker Friday, discussing topics including the war with #Iran, #GasPrices & the “anti-weaponization” #SlushFund.
Throughout the interview, which aired Sunday, Trump made a series of false, misleading or exaggerated comments [#lies].
#NBC News reporters dug into some of Trump’s remarks. Here are the facts behind the claims.

#Trump abruptly ends #interview with NBC’s ‘#MeetThePress’
During the conversation Trump dismissed the idea that launching the #war with #Iran this year betrayed his campaign message of “No new wars.” At the end, #KristenWelker pressed Trump on the “#settlement” #SlushFund & his false claims about the #California #election.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@RonSupportsYou/116660110405410924
On Friday morning I wrote about this #GoodNews: three cases where judges ruled against Donald Trump, cases ranging from his #SlushFund to his wrongfully adding his name to #TheKennedyCenter.
Today I was happy to see #ThisWeek begin its #television broadcast by taking a close look at these three cases.

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."

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?

[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.
