LOL OMG broad day light THEFT of US treasury.
post
All the presidents combined for the last century have only amassed $40 million in wealth while in office despite the whining and complaining by the right about the Clintons or Obama. All of them, combined, a century’s worth…$40 million
Trump has stuffed his pockets with $3 billion in since he got elected. In one year.
What a sniveling cunt.
They will end up settling out of court for half that and he'll laugh all the way to the bank. Another grift executed.
A 0.1% settlement is still $10m.
More than all the tax he paid since 2016.
He just accepted a gold bar and Rolex in exchange for removing tariffs on Switzerland. Even if that were a 1 kilo gold bar, that's $160,000. He got all his tech goons to contribute $1M to his inauguration.
Correct, but it is "never work another day" money to billions of people.
I'll never forgive the assholes that voted this piece of shit into office again. I feel dumber every time I read this childish bullshit, and sad for humanity seeing the homuculi that applaud stupidity.
I am so sick and tired of this fucking LEECH. Everything about that thing is horrid. Every little thing. Zero redeeming qualities. He is a disgusting parasite.
The world would be better place...
His stupidity, lack of historical knowledge, and his vainglory that has led him to surround himself with Yes Men and the like are all redeeming qualities in a sense because they stop him from achieving his callous agenda as much. But no he does not have any traditional virtue.
I feel the same about all of these headlines.
No matter how conservative you are, how can you support this? Its just nuts.
Trump: I would like to sue the Office of the President of the USA for $10 billion dollars.
Taxpayers: But, you are the President.
Trump: Oh great, I’ll settle with myself for $5 billion dollars. Send a check.
Taxpayers:

Americans: what a brilliant man.
Art of the deal.

Say what you want, he got himself to become a president. Obviously he did something right.
That something being lying, cheating, frauding, being stupidly lucky as well as removed which somehow is that combo that makes giant idiots rise to the top...
Technically, he barely did shit other than be his usual asshole moronic self. The evil fuckers (Thiel and co.) in the shadows got him elected.
Obviously he did something right.
Hillary: "Donald, my close personal friend and Epstein associate, would you mind running in the Republican primary and sabotaging their campaign so I can be president?"
Trump: "Absolutely. Would love it. Really looking forward to you winning. Unless you don't! Haha. But seriously, good luck out there. Can't wait to receive a bunch of kickbacks under your administration."
2016 was literally "What if The Producers ran for President"?
It's not only for $10b because his lawyer 'intepreted' "a hundred hundred gazillion bigly dollars" at an actual amount rather than trying to explain how numbers work.
How can he show damages when all the other presidents released theirs?
That's the best part: he doesn't have to. He can just order IRS to settle.
No he can't. The IRS legal team isn't an executive function.
Another good news!

Doesn't matter commissioners do not decide settlements.
Who hires the IRS lawyers that do decide them?
The IRS oig.
OMG! The good news just keeps coming and coming

"On September 24, 2025, federal judge Ana C. Reyes ruled that the administration unlawfully fired 17 inspectors general, but refused to reinstate them, noting that Trump could simply re-fire them after providing the congressionally mandated 30 days' notice."
That's not new, he's getting sued by a handful of them.
Didn't you read the part about the judge refusing to reinstate them?
So you still believe the people that decide settlements for IRS are independent of the administration even though Trump can just fire them at will... That's why everyone laughed at you. Now I feel stupid for providing arguments. I should have just laughed as well.
The judge didn't refuse to reinstate them they ordered the white house to and the white house refused, that's why they're being sued.
Wrong:
"A federal judge found President Donald Trump unlawfully fired several agency watchdogs early in his second term, but won’t reinstate them to their government oversight jobs."
"Reinstatement would also be challenging, because the Senate has begun confirming some of their successors.
In August, the Senate confirmed Cheryl Mason as the permanent IG for the Department of Veterans Affairs — replacing Michael Missal, the previous VA inspector general and one of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit. Other agency watchdog offices continue to operate with acting IGs."
Maybe the will appeal to the Supreme Court. This one is still independent, right??
The judge can't, it's not that they won't. It's portrayed in the media as refusal but if you actually read what's in pacer you'll find out that's not the case.
Reinstatement would also be challenging, because the Senate has begun confirming some of their successors.
Yeah that doesn't change the fact they were removed illegally nor does it have anything to do with the judge being a factor.
They don't need to at this point and it would behoove them to wait as long as possible because back pay is from the time of notice, the judge is technically just helping them make a case for far more backpay.
That's all great but you do realize that those fired inspectors don't make any decisions now?That the newly confirmed guy that Trump chose is making the decisions now? Like, you still live in some parallel world where laws mean something while in the real world Trump is making illegal decisions every day and everyone obeys them. I bet once he gets the $10B from IRS settlement you will still claim that the money are not really his.
Oh you sweet summer child
Oh you infantilizing winter moron. Make an actual argument not a veiled insult.
Yhe irs' leadership is appointed by prez snd can be fired at will. They can order the legal team, and or fimd ways to get them out.
I remimd you he sued parts of the federal government already and they settled with him, what did he Sue again I can't recall at the moment. I think at least two lawsuits one with the FBI was it?
The oig isn't and the oig is who would appoint outside counsel since everyone involved in conflicted.
He didn't, and they didn't. He certainly threatened to I'll give you that.
I presume you are referring to the office of Inspector general, and they can be fired by the president he is fired several already last year.
That would make the oig as conflicted as the IRS commissioner in which case it would dump out to Congress to choose.
That said the oig for Treasury is a very large office for an oig and that's a very tall tree to chop down by millimeters, trump would be dead before all conflictions are litigated.
hahahahahahahaha
Based on what little I know of this, myself only being versed in Bird Law, doesn't the IRS enjoy sovereign immunity as a governmental entity? They can just declare that they do not agree to being sued.
Yeah, but they're an executive agency, so Trump can just fire anyone who says no, until they get to someone who will agree to let the lawsuit proceed.
Their counsel has to provide a vigorous defense of the IRS so they can't walk into court and agree with Trump.
Are any of their remaining staff capable of providing a vigorous defense?
That’s a point
No. You can sue the IRS for all kinds of reasons related to your taxes. You're expected to go through administrative channels first, but you absolutely can sue the IRS.
But the defendant can't issue a counter suit. How is that possible. I hate this timeline. He will get away with it too watch...
He's stealing our money
OUR. FUCKING. MONEY.
obligatory: fuck izrael too
He better be careful. Not even the Joker said he would go against the IRS in Batman.
That's because the joker never was in charge of the federal government.
That being said, I think joker as president would be a nice step up... he's chaotic as hell, but he hates indiscriminately, he explicitly will not work with nazi's (If I recall a crossover had him meet red skull, who he opposed the second he realized he was a real nazi).
What a doofus. He could've asked for 10 billion and fifty dollars. Now he's going to be 50$ short some day.
I can’t believe it took this long for someone to realize they can just openly plunder and get away with it. Or that we sit around and let it happen.
There've got to be laws against that, right?
"You see, I'm demanding maybe the most anyone has ever demanded. They come up to me and tell me: sir, no one has ever demanded this much. I sued them for eleventyseven zillion dollars"
you gotta use the translator:
“The IRS wrongly allowed a rogue, politically-motivated employee to leak private and confidential information about President Trump, his family, and the Trump Organization to the New York Times, ProPublica and other left-wing news outlets, which was then illegally released to millions of people,” a Trump spokesperson said in a statement.
“The IRS employee exposed factual, damning information about President Trump, his family, and the Trump Organization to the New York Times, ProPublica and other left-wing news outlets, which was then obviously released to millions of people,” a rational person should take from that statement.
What damages? How about we dig into all the fraud on avoiding paying taxes on all that money daddy gave him?
Fuck this guy
