Not enough people are talking about this.

Trump is trying to escape a $100 million dollar tax penalty, and Senate Republicans are helping him do it.

You know about the $1.8 billion slush fund he tried to create to reward his political allies. They got so much pushback that they’ve halted that, at least for now. But what you probably don’t know is that Trump gave himself, his family, and his businesses complete immunity from IRS audits, past and future.

Everyone focused on the slush fund, and almost nobody noticed the audit immunity. It’s still in place, and it cannot be allowed to stand.

NEW: About any Trump Admin. attempts to backdoor the slush fund and find another route for taxpayer-funded payouts to Jan 6 rioters, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) tells MSNOW:

"They'd like to find some way around it, to do it directly through the judgment fund or through some other mechanism. And we're not going to allow that to happen"

I’m just going to post this every few days rather than arguing with faceless, nameless trolls in the comments.

[Morgan J. Freeman @mjfree]

😱😱😱 And just like that, it completely VANISHED from the media.

But a sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.

Lets make this viral 👇

"The UFC event captures something about this moment in our history.

After all, it’s vulgar, it’s violent, it’s commercial, it’s grandiose, it’s tacky, and it dishonors a place once thought worthy of care and respect. In other words, it’s Donald Trump."

I agree 💯

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

trump is using Honor Guard troops as props for a UFC spectacle at the White House.

The presidency deserves better.
Our servicemembers deserve better.
America deserves better.

DISGRACEFUL.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

“Government resources” = your taxpayer dollars

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

WTF!!!!!

Trump is f-cking using Honor Guards at a UFC event on the Lincoln Memorial.

No this is NOT ok. Don’t you dare call yourself a “patriot” while supporting this crap.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Gas prices are soaring.

Grocery prices are skyrocketing.

Utility prices are increasing.

What are Republicans and trump focused on? Tax breaks for private jets.

November is coming.

Today has been a very bad day for Donald Trump. And bad days for Trump are good days for America.

🚨 Jonathan Karl Just Identified The Core Contradiction In Trump’s Iran Deal.

Trump is now promoting an agreement built around a familiar promise:

Iran will never obtain a nuclear weapon.

Sounds significant.

Until you remember where we’ve heard that before.

According to Jonathan Karl, that exact commitment appeared in the opening section of the Obama-era nuclear agreement negotiated more than a decade ago.

The same agreement Trump withdrew from in 2018. (Axios)

Think about the timeline.

First, Obama secured a deal in which Iran pledged it would never pursue a nuclear weapon.

Then Trump tore that deal up, calling it a disaster.

Now Trump is presenting a new agreement centered on the very same promise.

If the core nuclear commitment is the same one that already existed, what exactly was gained by killing the original deal in the first place?

JUST IN: This Is A Pretty Stunning Observation.

Trump is celebrating a new Iran agreement centered on a commitment that Iran will never obtain a nuclear weapon.

According to ABC's Jonathan Karl, that same commitment appeared in the very first paragraph of President Obama's nuclear deal more than a decade ago.

Think about that.

First came Obama's agreement.

Then Trump tore it up.

Now Trump is celebrating an agreement built around the same core promise.

#BREAKING: Psaki: “What is also quite revealing is that from the earliest discussion of the idea, [Todd] Blanche noted the potential for a quid pro quo…we don’t know whether [Ghislaine] Maxwell’s team actually asked for anything…what we do know is the timing was very freaking suspicious. Blanche sat down with Maxwell on July 24th and 25th of last year. Just ONE WEEK later, on August 1st, the FBI confirmed Maxwell had been transferred to a minimum security prison in Texas, that’s the one where a whistleblower told the House Judiciary Committee that Maxwell has since been able to enjoy things like customized meals and time with puppies…”🙄

[The Tennessee Holler @TheTNHoller]

“We are deeply disturbed to learn so many senior members of the Trump administration gathered in the Situation Room to discuss the release of the Epstein Files as a reputational problem… we are separately concerned Todd Blanche was at that table.”

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

Hey, @realDonaldTrump—wake up, pay attention—that's not an IQ test they keep making you take. Dude, try to stay awake!

It's a test for dementia! You still there??

Our team was out all day starting at 1145am Friday and almost all night… until the moment Trump’s name came off the Kennedy Center after 3am. We were well over 100k at the end just on X. Trump tried to hide this moment from the public. But we were there.

[Bill Madden @maddenifico]

If what Dan Bongino told Tucker Carlson is true, then Thomas Matthew Crooks was a sacrificial dupe that Trump intentionally had murdered to help him win a presidential election and stay out of prison.

Jeffrey Epstein claimed Trump could "crack" under pressure and described him as "evil beyond belief" and "nuts" when feeling cornered.

[Scott MacFarlane @MacFarlaneNews]

Team Trump confirms to the court .. they’ve taken Trump’s name off the Kennedy Center

[Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @AdamKinzinger]

Trump lies constantly and he is desperate for the Iran war to be over. So desperate that he’s giving Iran 20 times the money Obama did, and getting nothing in return, except an open strait that Iran will charge a “maintenance fee” to all ships. Well done, bozo
