    From here: New York prosecutors digging into Trump's tax, financial records

    Excerpt:
    Let's see him squirm out of this one. I wonder why it took 18 months to get them? Cuz he was a PotUS trying to get reelected ...?

    You guys got him this time! Surely this won’t also fizzle out into nothingness like every other attempt! Prison time here he comes! Life sentence lmao.

    I heard they found something in his taxes and have sentenced him to life of solitary confinement. (In the minds of many)

    New York prosecutors are like Capt. Queeg in The Caine Mutiny. They're convinced Trump stole the missing strawberries and they'll turn the ship upside down in order to prove it.

    Good movie BTW.

    So if there is something wrong with Trump's taxes then why didn't the IRS find it? This is nothing more than political harassment driven by hate and bigotry.

    HISTORY LESSON

    The origins of the two parties goes back a more than a century and a half - to a time just before the Civil War. And, though I am no historian, I wonder how the schism between the two parties did or did not contribute to that war.

    Anyway, here's an historical account of the party-evolution that some might find interesting: What is the Difference Between Republicans and Democrats.

    Excerpt:
    The above explanation should surprise no one ...

    It's the way the left operates now. Destroy any and all opposition. They have no concept of free and open political debate. Notice all the conservatives banned on Amazon and Facebook and the rest. It's totally outrageous but it continues.

    If only we had some kind of government entity that was charged with looking into tax laws and auditing people that were suspect. We could call it something like The Tax Police or Instigators of Real Solutions or something like that.

    Wrong. The reason it took 18 months is because of Trump. If he had nothing to hide, he wouldn't have fought the subpoena.

    Does that also apply to the Bidens and clintons? It took congress to find problems with Nixon’s taxes. And I don’t think they’re looking for tax filing issues.

    The Mazars subpoena also sought engagement agreements that define the accountants’ role in creating the tax returns and financial statements; source documents providing the accountants with raw financial data; and work papers and communications between the firm and Trump representatives. Those would include communications showing how the raw data was analyzed and treated in the preparation of the records.

    I don’t think is info that an IRS audit can get.

    Agreed on "good movie." However, I'd say Trump is more like Captain Queeg blaming the crew for stealing the election.

    UH OH
    You know what this means. We are going to have to IMPEACH the IRS. They INCITED Trump to cheat on taxes by never finding anything. I personally think they CAN find stuff if they dig deep enough. With all that money and properties owned there is bound to be something suspect. I say GOOD because now we can use this new standard to go after ALL RICH LIBERAL POLITICIANS.

    I do think that the beloved Donald J. Trump, AKA Da Trumpsta will live forever in the heads of the left side of the political spectrum.

    Cheato will definitely be used as justification for every precedent he set — for better or worse.

    SHOWTIME

    Because he was fighting in a court of law the past year and a half against opening the case. And, as PotUS, he had at the time control of the Uncle Sam's justice-system.That he was thwarting!

    I am soooo pleased to see the negative responses on this forum. Showing how dense to the juridical facts some people can be. Just likeTrump himself.

    Let's also wait-'n-see what an inspection of his behaviour can prove as regards his business activities. It's Showtime, Folks ... !!!

    HIGH-TIME FOR JUSTICE IN AMERICA

    It is high-time that ex-PotUS Trump should be brought to bear for his past behaviour as president. The process is in place and will be effective in bringing him before a court of law, where he can explain his past behaviour. All that needs to be done, is an investigation of his financial dealings whilst heading his company. Which may or may not prove evidential. Time will tell.

    See here:
    350 health professionals sign letter to Congress claiming Trump's mental health is deteriorating dangerously amid impeachment proceedings

    Excerpt (published 05/12/2019):

    The above is an excerpt of an article published in December of 2019. On January 3rd, 2021, fully a year later, and after a speech made directly to them in DC nearby Congress by Trump, a crowd went off and ransacked both the Senate and the HofR.

    Enough is enough ... !

    They just got their hands on documents that a court-case (more than a year long and during Trump's presidency) refused to consider. Nothing is predetermined and the documents now in possession of the NYC-prosecutor will be inspected for evidence.

    A court case is highly likely. Meanwhile the entire Trump-family seems to have quit NYC for sunny south-Florida. Damn good move ... !

    Well, if that was truly the case, Humpty's SCOTUS would have stopped it. They didn't.

    And FEAR... these people are so afraid he might regain that office that they're still losing their minds over him. I fully expect them to either convict him illegally OR to come up with some modern form of a Bill of Attainder.

    The whole thing is a farce. Literally, they want to exorcise a 'demon' that they just got done exorcising. I think the very same people who argued that Trump's losing it or has lost it, should look at themselves for losing it.
