If you have a few mil, just try to NOT commit “tax fraud”. A billion, it’s a given.

Our law schools have raised a generation or two of Roland Freislers to man the judicial benches.

Article V before we can’t.

That is the truth. The corollary is that when you see the Left turn on one another, it means they sense no danger from the Right at that moment.

the fine is a maximum of a little over a million, but deal. Trump earns that in interest in a month.

I don’t know anything about this particular case. But the tax code is so complicated and arbitrary that I suppose an auditor could find fault with any return.

One is reminded of the classic Dr. Ferris quote from Atlas Shrugged:

Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men.

The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.

When will the persecution stop? What is enough? I don’t agree with a lot of what Trump says, but I like a lot of the things that he did. Apparently, the hate goes very deep.

Musk is next. Nixon was a boy scout compared to Joe Biden.

Deutsche Bank stopped doing business with Trump after 1/6. No other bank is willing to do business with him, not on the scale he wants.

No he doesn’t, none of the big four accounting firms will touch him.

He had Mazars doing his accounting, they dropped him earlier this year. I don’t know who, if anyone, has replaced them.

“These, and other projects, are enduring monuments to what Donald Trump did for that city when everyone had given up hope of that city, and it looked and smelled like a backed up toilet, sort of like it does right now.”

This country does not deserve a Trump or a DeSantis.

Alex Jones was told by his attorneys to move out of Austin because of tainted leftist juries and he chose not to do so and he paid the price with a corrupt, rigged judicial system. It would behoove any conservative to move to a friendly red area jurisdiction so they are not hounded and oppressed and target liek Trump and Alex for baseless lawsuits.
