Read this piece by a former federal prosecutor. He lays out exactly how rotten Trump’s settlement with himself really is.
Start with the basic structure, because once you see it you cannot unsee it.
Trump sued the IRS for $10 billion over the leak of his tax returns. The judge signaled the case could not move forward, because a president cannot sue the government he runs.
So Trump dropped it.
The judge in her dismissal order noted there was no settlement of record at all.
Then his own Justice Department, run by his former personal lawyer, Todd Blanche, conjured one anyway.
They created a $1.776 billion fund Trump controls, to pay people who claim they were targeted by the government. That includes pardoned January 6 rioters who attacked police officers.
Here is the part that should end the debate. In an addendum to the deal, Blanche barred the IRS from auditing Trump or affiliated individuals. Forbes calculated that immunity could save the Trumps more than $600 million. The man under investigation wrote himself a release from the investigation.
This is the abuse of public office for private gain. It is the very definition of corruption. And as the author warns, the courts may never touch it, because the only people harmed are the American people, and they may lack standing to sue.
Which means it falls to Congress to act.
And we must.

BREAKING: HOLY SH*T! Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito's son secretly received a top job inside the Trump administration while Alito was ruling on massive cases involving the White House.
This is corruption, nepotism, and in-kind bribery all wrapped up in one...
Philip Alito, the son of far-right Justice Samuel Alito, was given an appointment as a lawyer at the Treasury Department early on in Trump's second term. His father was aware of the appointment and did nothing to block it, unsurprising since Alito has zero interest in avoiding conflicts of interest or maintaining the legitimacy of the court.
This is the same Samuel Alito who was caught accepting bribes from billionaire Paul Singer in the form of luxury jet travel and an expensive fishing vacation. And that's just what we know about.
According to NOTUS, four government officials confirmed that Alito's son is working inside the office of the general counsel, which supports Treasury Secretary Bessent. Notus described the arrangement as a "closely guarded secret."
Philip Alito, in an apparent effort to maintain a low profile, does not have a public resume, LinkedIn profile, or a presence on the Treasury Department. Most of the images available of him online are older, from when his father was first appointed to the court. He's a ghost in the system, getting paid by our tax dollars, and presumably whispering in his father's ear to tilt rulings in Trump's favor.
“Everybody knew who he was. I think it’s fair to say he kept a pretty low profile. I kind of had the impression that he was kind of a little bit sheepish about his celebrity affiliation. You’d go into a meeting and if people were introducing themselves by first and last name, he’d just say ‘Phil,’ not Phil Alito. He’s a pretty soft-spoken guy,” one official stated.
The efforts to keep his identity shielded from not only the public, but his co-workers, proves that he knows what he's doing is deeply improper. If there was nothing to hide, he wouldn't need to keep his head down. But Alito, and presumably his father, know that this appointment further damages what little credibility the Supreme Court has left.
“There’s no doubt he got that position because of who he is,” another official told NOTUS. “[Advisers] are in all the meetings, so they knew all the issues across the board.”
Damningly, the younger Alito was working his Treasury job when the court ruled on Trump's tariffs. While the administration was ultimately defeated, Justice Alito joined with Brett Kavanaugh to rule in favor of Trump. At no point in the process did he disclose in court documents that his son was working for one side, nor did he recuse himself. The administration is insisting that the younger Alito had no role in the case, but this White House lies through its teeth at every turn.
And the problem hasn't diminished in the slightest. Trump's $1.776 billion slush fund for January 6th insurrectionists, MAGA loyalist, and Republican child molesters is getting hammered by lawsuits right now. When one of these cases inevitably ends up in front of the Supreme Court, Justice Alito will once again be ruling on a case in which his son has a vested interest in a particular outcome.
These crooks are laughing in our faces as they line their pockets, rig the system, and set their children up to do the same for the next generation.
Phillip Alito must be fired and Samuel Alito must be impeached!
Please ❤️ and share to demand that the proverbial heads start rolling!

@Freedom250 Donald Trump will be on that stage talking about how horrible all Muslims, immigrants, Democrats, and the Republicans who stood up to him and others are.
He will talk about how the people who tried to steal our election, shit in the Capitol, and beat cops deserve our money.

Trump may not have attended his son's wedding, but now we know his wedding present:
$600 million of your tax dollars to one of his companies.
The Trump family grift knows no bounds, and neither should our resolve to stop it.

They are looting this country. Dismantling it, selling it for parts, and lining their own pockets.
It is corruption to the highest degree.

New: A top White House aide intervened to get a $620 million Pentagon loan for a company tied to Donald Trump Jr. “The call came from the White House: We have to get this done,” said one person involved. propublica.org/article/donald…
English

Donald Trump Jr takes a financial stake in a company…
3 months later, the Pentagon gives it $620 million…
after Trump’s White House told them to…
And the company’s valuation rose from
$200 million to $2 billion as a result.
This is corruption.

This week alone:
DOJ opens an investigation into the woman Trump raped.
The White House is caught steering a $620 million contract to Don Jr.’s firm.
The Pentagon hands out a $10 billion contract after Trump buys stock in the company.
Foreign governments are caught funneling hundreds of millions into a random JPMorgan account tied to Trump’s “Board of Peace” with no oversight.
It’s just Thursday.
The corruption isn’t hidden anymore. It’s happening out in the open.

@NVDesertRose @SenRandPaul And Markwayne Mullin the Homeland Security chief who had 1.5 million forgiven.
English

@SenRandPaul Can they start with the PPP loan Oprah received, or Zuckerberg?
Maybe start with the Pelosis, get that money back.
English

Under Joe Biden, a number of Planned Parenthood affiliates applied for PPP loans totaling over $80 million. It was determined they were wrongfully granted these loans under the applicable affiliation rules.
This is the kind of mess President Trump is cleaning up.
GREAT WORK🇺🇸
Rapid Response 47@RapidResponse47
.@SBA_Kelly: "At the @SBAgov, we found $200B in fraudulent PPP loans that the Biden Administration tried to hide, and forgive, and sweep under the rug. We've turned the first $22B of that over to Treasury for collections, and to DOJ for prosecution."

Senator Mark Warner is now investigating Trump Mobile.
"It's a scam. It's a scam. There's no phone made from scratch in America like this… I think Americans have been hoodwinked. But this is an administration, whether it is the Trump mobile, whether it is the billion dollars for the ballroom, the billion eight of taxpayer money for the slush fund. I've never seen an administration where both the president and his closest allies are enriching themselves as much."

Call me old-fashioned, but I think it should be a bigger story that a sitting Republican member of Congress is missing, nobody knows where he is, yet he’s somehow still insider trading.
Dave Levinthal@davelevinthal
Whereabouts of missing Rep. Tom Kean (R-N.J.) remain unknown, but he’s trading stocks again. From today’s @NOTUSreports newsletter:

@sirDukeDevin If the Democrats do not win midterms and take congressional control...there will be no recovery. IMHO.
