Biden administration weighs turning over Trump tax returns to House Democrats

Why bother? The fractured GOP will still stonewall any investigation in a feeble attempt to save face.

Vance and James already have some of them and are building tax fraud cases againt Trumpet and his evil empire. They might even have the 8 years of records they were fighting for from Trumpet's accountants at Mazars USA.

They got Capone on tax evasion and will eventually nail Trumpet for the same crime.

Tick tock.

Biden administration weighs turning over Trump tax returns to House Democrats

House Democrats have renewed their long-stalled demand for Donald Trump’s federal tax records, but the Biden administration has not decided whether it will drop its predecessor’s objections and release the Treasury Department records to investigators, Justice Department attorneys told a federal judge Friday.



McFadden also kept in place an order requiring the government to give the former president’s lawyers 72 hours’ notice before releasing his tax return information to allow them to file a request to block the release.

Separation-of-powers issues that have slowed the case “may fall out” now that Trump is no longer in office, the judge noted.

“It would be a former president trying to stop a political branch, rather than one branch suing another. At least that’s my instinct,” said McFadden, a 2017 Trump appointee to the federal bench in Washington.

We can trust Adam The Leak Schiff and Eric Fang Swalwell.

Any day of the week over pro-Russian activists Jim Jordan, Devin Nunez, Steve Scalise, ect.

Thsoe two are a couple of shameless propagandists.  I am still waiting for Adam to reveal the bombshell evidence he always claimed to have.

Shameless propagandist perfectly describes Comrade Donnie and his pro-Russian sycophants.  Only the dumbest of the dumb deny Comrade Donnie's active engagement of Russian involvement on his behalf during the 2016 presidential elections.

It is easy to point out how Dorsey and Zuckerberg decided the election with their contributions.  Please explain how Russia colluded with Trump for his victory in 2016 because the Mueller Report didn't show that.

Mueller had his hands tied behind his back and Flynn plead guilty to ther FBI.

Vance is close. I could care less if Trumpet's cheating ass sits on a stainless steel toilet in a federal or a state prison. As long as he is inside looking out justice will be served.

George Conway hands Biden's DOJ a roadmap to make sure Trump ends up in jail

On Friday night, writing for The Washington Post, conservative attorney George Conway laid out the way forward to investigate former President Donald Trump for his criminal conduct in office now that he is a private citizen — and prosecute him where appropriate.

"Trump departed the White House a possible — many would say probable, provable — criminal, one who has left a sordid trail of potential and actual misconduct that remains to be fully investigated. A desperate fear of criminal indictment may even explain Trump's willingness to break any number of laws to stay in office despite losing his reelection bid, democracy and the Constitution be damned."

While President Joe Biden is correct to pledge to stay out of prosecutorial decisions surrounding Trump, wrote Conway, the Justice Department should not — and everything from the Russia obstruction of justice, to the Ukraine bribery scheme, to his attacks on the election and incitement of the Capitol riot, should be on the table to prosecute.

One important avenue, wrote Conway, is to follow the lead of New York prosecutors.

"[Manhattan DA Cyrus] Vance is running a state investigation, but if Trump has committed bank or insurance fraud, that would be chargeable as federal offenses as well, including mail or wire fraud."

"So, too, with state tax offenses, given how Trump's federal and state returns would no doubt track one another. Trump apparently had good reason to be concerned about who would fill [Preet] Bharara's old job."

I don't doubt for a minute that Trump used some shady tactics to avoid taxes, but there has been zero evidence presented that he did anything illegal.  If you think James and Vance are close, I'd really like to know how you know this.

The NYSD has been investigating Trumpet, his family and his businesses for 4 years. Both for criminal and civil offenses. Their hands were effectively tied during those psychologically arduous years but they have been quietly doing their homework and collecting what evidence they could.

They need those tax returns to prove parts of their case which is why Trumpet is fighting so hard to keep them hidden. They are also looking into the hush money paid to the working gals now that Individual 1 can be named, bank fraud, insurance fraud, the Trumpet Organization and more.

The SCOTUS ruled last year that NYS can see the tax returns but not the Ds. Well after appeal after appeal it appears Trumpet finally ran out of time, excuses and the executive shield but the SC is silent lately whichis confusing. It is just a matter of time until the NYSD and Congress gets the tax paperwork. They have hired a team of forensic specialists.

The NYSD just spoke to Cohen at length. To prove crimimality and not just creative bookeeping you need an inside man to testify. Since Individual 1 let Cohen take the blame for his crimes I'd bet they found their mole. As soon as those tax returns are released I'd guess the SDNY needs adequate time to delve into them.

Congress will also investigate Trumpet's Russian involvement, the Ukraine and plenty more. His monetizing the pardon process particularly telling. It is blatantly obvious that he is freeing anyone who can testify against him.

3 months? 6 Months? 1 year? I can't tell you that but I can tell you with much certainty that the tangerine fat man is going down.

Purely political
