Now what’s all this about Trump giving himself and the fam total immunity from everything forever?
The government, without any fanfare or even announcement, quietly added some very serious terms to the settlement that are remarkably favorable to Trump and those around him.
They say the government is “FOREVER BARRED and PRECLUDED” from bringing claims against Trump, his family or his businesses for past tax issues, up to the date of the settlement this week.
Well how nice for them.
If the terms are allowed to stand, Trump, his family and his businesses would effectively be immune from “claims” or “examinations” related to matters pending before the IRS, including in previously filed tax returns.
The terms were quietly added Tuesday in a hyperlink to Monday’s original Justice Department press release.
“quietly” – gee, I wonder why.
Trump can use the fund to pay off scores of allies who did all manner of things — including sometimes illegal — on his behalf.
That’s most notably the case with those who, in many cases, literally rose up in arms for Trump on January 6, 2021. Vice President JD Vance on Tuesday declined to rule out financial payments to the many already pardoned January 6 rioters who assaulted police, suggesting some of them might too have been “mistreated.”
Diddums.
