#ToddBlanche, the acting US #AG, confirmed in writing [1 unsigned] on Sunday night that the #DOJ would abandon “elements” of the deal it struck with #Trump to “resolve” his lawsuit against the #IRS, conceding to demands from Republican senators who had threatened to block his nomination as attorney general. #law #criminal #theft #fraud #JudicialProcess #judiciary #TaxpayersMoney #kleptocracy #MafiaState #Jan6 #MAGASlushFund #SlushFund

Still, even in its new form, #ToddBlanche’s order for the #IRS to abandon any audits of #Trump’s previous tax returns is an unprecedented & “potentially” (definitely) illegal benefit to a sitting president, worth tens of millions of dollars in lower taxes & avoided penalties. #law #criminal #theft #fraud #JudicialProcess #judiciary #TaxpayersMoney #kleptocracy #MafiaState

Williams’ 56-page opinion blasted the behavior of both the #DOJ — stating that the admin’s response to the case disregarded DOJ policies & potentially the #law — & of the private attorneys who brought the lawsuit on #Trump’s behalf. https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/28468904-trump-v-irs-order/ #IRS #law #criminal #fraud #DOJ #JudicialProcess #theft #TaxpayersMoney #kleptocracy #MafiaState #Jan6 #MAGASlushFund #SlushFund

US District ⁠Judge Kathleen Williams found that #Trump & the ​#IRS, which he oversees as president, were not ​truly adverse to each other as is required in #civil lawsuits under the #US #Constitution. Williams referred a ​Trump lawyer in the case & senior ​#DOJ officials who signed off on the settlement ‌to ⁠state #bar authorities to determine if their actions violated #LegalEthics rules. #law #criminal #fraud #JudicialProcess #theft #TaxpayersMoney #kleptocracy #MafiaState #SlushFund

"This action was never about a party seeking judicial resolution of a ​legal issue ​or a ⁠factual dispute," Williams wrote. The judge said it was instead an attempt ​to "provide some legitimacy to an agreement ​to ⁠confer #immunity to people & entities affiliated with the president & to earmark billions of dollars ⁠from American ​#taxpayers to redress grievances not ​defined in the #law." #Trump #criminal #DOJ #JudicialProcess #theft #TaxpayersMoney #kleptocracy #MafiaState #Jan6 #SlushFund
