    Let’s pretend for a second this whole thing is not completely bonkers.

    The lawsuit alleges the IRS and Treasury Department failed to prevent the leak of Trump’s tax returns between 2018 and 2020 by former contractor Charles Littlejohn, who was later sentenced to five years in prison.

    How on earth is that worth 10 Billion? What damages has this done do the orange turd?

      An attempt to make him accountable like every other president’s published tax returns before him. He does not let himself be held accountable for anything whatsoever.

    He’s not “taking it” from “his IRS.” He’s stealing it from Americans who can barely pay their bills.

    The entire premise of the lawsuit was frivolous and corrupt, and the IRS engaging in any settlement talks that involve any payment whatsoever should be criminally prosecuted as conversion of public funds.

      He’s blatantly robbing the American taxpayers. People should be out in the streets for this.

    Trump is pulling off the greatest scam in the history of humankind, and he is not even trying to hide it, he is doing it openly. Meanwhile Americans are not even rioting, they are just standing by and watching in awe. Its fucking insane.
