Commissioner Koskinen’s question is a critical one: what is in the tax returns that requires this ban on audit-ban??? If Trump, his family members, & his businesses have done things legally, why would such a ban even be desirable? If anything, wouldn’t it be better to allow audits, which would prove the Trump family and businesses’ innocence?

June 1, 1933: The "Fund of German Trade and Industry" is created, a huge slush fund administered by Martin Bormann in the Führer's name. The regime used the funds to compensate SA Stormtroopers who committed street violence, subsidize the SS, and enrich Nazi party officials.

Erin Brockovich is back, and this time she's coming for the AI industry, calling out Big Tech's data center boom as the next great environmental shakedown of American communities. She launched a self-reporting map at brockovichdatacenter.com, and within a week over 1,600 residents had filed complaints spanning noise pollution, skyrocketing utility bills, and serious water depletion concerns. The pattern she's seeing looks awfully familiar: corporations dangle promises of jobs and tax revenue, municipalities wave projects through with minimal environmental review, and the people who actually live there get left holding the bag. The water issue alone should be setting off alarm bells. Data centers gulp enormous amounts of water to keep their cooling systems running, and some are being planted directly above critical aquifers. As Brockovich put it plainly, "Wasting heat is wasting water. We can't afford either." The technology to capture and reuse that waste heat already exists, it's just not being required. That's a policy failure, not a tech failure. A recent Gallup poll found that 7 in 10 Americans oppose data centers being built in their communities, with many saying they'd rather live near a nuclear plant. Brockovich's demand is straightforward: if Big Tech is going to drain public water supplies and jack up utility bills, the public deserves full transparency. "If you're using public resources, the public has a right to know how much. Sunlight is the best disinfectant."

The total value of Trump’s transactions in the first three months of this year—$750 million—is higher than the value of all trades by all 535 members of the House and Senate *combined* in an average year. open.substack.com/pub/thebulwark…

🚨 Arlington police officer arrested after girlfriend finds over 4,000 child porn files on two hard drives hidden behind his bulletproof vest An Arlington Police Department officer has been arrested after his girlfriend discovered more than 4,000 files of child sexual abuse material hidden on external hard drives behind his bulletproof vest. Dustin Bartlett, 41, is accused of possessing depictions of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct. Bartlett has been placed on administrative leave pending both criminal and internal investigations. He made his first court appearance this week and remains in custody. This case is especially disturbing because the material was found by his own girlfriend, hidden behind the very vest he wore while serving as a police officer. Once again, someone in a position of public trust is accused of exploiting children while hiding in plain sight.

I will not sit by and let Republicans characterize programs for the poorest of the poor women and children as “waste, fraud and abuse” when the real waste, fraud and abuse is being perpetrated by Donald Trump giving $1.8 BILLION to January 6th insurrectionists.
