Only US Presidential candidate in 40 years not to put them on the public record All Trump's tax returns were duly filed on time with the IRS, as required by law. He wasn't obliged to sow them to you, CNN, or the New York Times! All his tax returns were turned over, by law, to Congress in 2022, and released to the general public. You can be forgiven for not noticing, Another "bombshell revelation" turned into a another "nothing burger" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The person the Republicans were delighted to have assigned to the case before they realised he'd do his job properly? Many Republicans would like to see Trump in jail, too! He's upset the bloated gravy train Swamp in both parties! Must be doing something right? Edited August 15, 2023 by trastrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can be forgiven for not noticing, Another "bombshell revelation" turned into a another "nothing burger" Missing out - of course - the huge amount of bawling, ranting and throwing ketchup-soaked nothingburgers at the wall that it took to get Trump to do what every other President had done: From Wiki: 2016 - refused to release his tax returns after being elected president, although he promised to do so during his campaign. Trump repeatedly and falsely claimed that he could not release the returns while they were under audit by the Internal Revenue Service. 2018 - sued to prevent his returns from being released by the IRS or his accountants. 2020 - appeals to Supreme Court to prevent release. Loses. 2022 - Ways and Means Committee Chair gets six years of tax returns following Trump losing three years' worth of appeals. Discovered that Trump - of course - lied about IRS auditing.

That would be the McConnell faction of the Republican Party. A Big Mistake! Sadly McConnell (and Weiss) are a part of the Washington D.C. swamp! Weiss signed off on a a sweet deal Plea Bargain for Hunter, conferring legal immunity, and effectively ending ALL further investigations into the Biden Family International Enrichment scheme, which a judge threw out! 19 hours ago, altus said: Only by digging a bigger, deeper swamp.

trastrick Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) In other news, Weiss, the newly appointed Special Prosecutor, in the Bidengate Matter (who was appointed by Biden's Justice Department, because "he asked for the role" in some new bizarre process of appointing "Independent SP's ) wasted no time in his new role. After 5 years of Investigation, Weiss first signed off on Hunters "Sweetheart Deal" which would have had him immune from further prosecution. Now, after being "appointed" Friday, literally, within hours, he moved to have the Tax Evasion charges against Hunter, dismissed. The Hill Judge dismisses Hunter Biden misdemeanor tax charges https://thehill.com/homenews/4158022-judge-dismisses-hunter-biden-misdemeanor-tax-charges/ So we at least get to see the process, like sausages, being made! Maybe he's on to something, but the optics, which are of paramount importance in the upcoming election season, give the Democrats some breathing room, and bragging rights. And further diminishes the trust the U.S. electorate have in their Law Enforcement Agencies, and by extension, the fairness of U.S. elections. Fun stuff! (And although the FBI confiscated Trump's passport during the Mari-Lago raid, as a "flight risk", Hunter is able to continue his presumably legitimate International foreign $multibillion dealings on behalf of the Biden family).

The only thing Trump exposed was the speed at which he was prepared to ditch the oaths he swore to protect, when he took office. Utterly delusional. The list of senators that signed that letter include some of Trump's biggest fluffers: Hawley, Cruz, Graham, Cotton, Rubio, Scott, Blackburn, Ernst etc etc. And, of course, our friend entirely predictably ignored the link pre-empting the inevitable crying about supposed 'sweetheart' deals. Because of course he did . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all, Trump lost... even DeSantis agrees 🤣 Trump’s own officials say 2020 was America’s most secure election in history.

Hunter Biden misdemeanor tax charges are dismissed — for now Quote A federal judge in Delaware formally dismissed misdemeanor tax charges against Hunter Biden on Thursday, but the president's son is expected to face the same charges — or new ones — in the near future. ... They indicated they would most likely charge Biden in California or Washington, D.C. “The Government, in the exercise of its prosecutorial discretion, is considering what tax charges to bring in another district and may elect to bring the same charges set forth in the instant information or different ones,” the filing said.
