This it's not going to be the biggest con of America history only, it's going to be the biggest con in the history of all the democracys of the world... If this family of thieves isn't prosecuted and condemned after they leave office, the US will never recover from this, it will be forever smeared from this, showing that after all the lawless country, the country where everything is possible, as long you have money is the US.,that after all the paper tiger is the US government and his laws....

This is what Timothy Snyder calls “superpower suicide”.

There is wrongness on every fricken level. Does this make you hyperventilate? Do you feel nauseous ? or maybe it is rage (a burn deep inside) waiting to come out⁉️ Well…I do❗️

Every day it’s something new - it’s been crazy - I long for boring! This is just to stressful, sad and sick!

That is exactly how I feel. I'm glad that there is more than one of us out there.

And we have not seen the worst of it yet.

I keep thinking it can't get worse. Then it does. Thank you for your hard work and efforts to enlighten us.

His suit is also 4 years too late, given the statute of limitations is 2 years, and its been 6. Trump seems to think that ANY limitations to his and his son's grasping money grubbing enterprises is tantamount to treason.

Fuck him and the boat he rowed in on.

What is exhausting is having stuff like this going on and have absolutely nothing we can do except watch?

Diana's avatar

Right!! Like a bad movie 🍿.

Yeah, except you can't change the channel!

That’s why self care is numero uno important.

If this con is allowed to happen without legal consequences, the USA will be a laughingstock country forever more.

Too late! We already are the laughingstock. We have been since November 5, 2024 when he was elected.

“Forty-five percent of the staffing reductions came specifically from the enforcement division. That is the division responsible for auditing wealthy taxpayers and large corporations.”

I guess those who accompanied Eric and his father to China are very, very happy.

THIS IS BLOOD BOILING. Todd Blanche is certainly a very busy guy between hiding the Epstein files…making personal deals with Ghislaine Maxwell and now personally signing off on the biggest con in this nation’s history…all while NEVER having been formally APPROVED for his job as both ACTING and ASSISTANT Director. This is way too much power in one man’s hands and they KNOW it. Once again they are doing end runs around the Constitution and the rule of law and getting away with it.

Bad things happen when good men do nothing …it’s really starting to look like there are no good men left. This settlement cannot be stopped by Congress it’s entirely in Blanche’s control…the only thing we can do is expose it..decry it..support all who scream about it .

They go beyond words to describe what they’re doing …there just aren’t enough in the dictionary .

We can’t give up ..we must fight any way we can..we may lose some battles but we MUST WIN THE WAR…and war is exactly what this is…a war between good and lawful and pure unadulterated EVIL. This administration is more than corrupt..inept..greedy..power-crazed..unconstitutional and illegal….it is sick with all the deadly sins and we need an exorcism in November.

Thank you Paula

All of my sentiments exactly

Especially the last paragraph

Amen 🙏🏽

Maybe call Pope Leo?

Paula Mutzel's avatar

If I could I would!

How that can be allowed when this insane president has already created such a huge deficit because of his war, is beyond comprehension! This is to enrich his own family ! Taking from the American people! If it was , as in the past, just an apology and no monetary compensation, why would the ruling change to benefit a con artist, such as Trump!

Sheila M's avatar

What can we do about this?!

People need to see this, understand this is NOT justifiable! …and be outraged enough to DO Something to STOP This!

Suel J's avatar

And just why the capitulation to this bullshit?

I can say, without a doubt that if this was being done by a democrat, not only would it be in every newspaper, it would be broadcast across every television new station in the country. I have said it before, and will say it again here, I’m never quite sure what disgusts me more… The audacity of this administration or the total and complete apathy and cowardice of not just the American people, but democratic leadership as well. I’m sick of hearing Democrats can’t do anything because they hold no power. That’s a horse shit and we all know it. Power comes in many forms and takes courage. I guess we’re just going to continue to bend over and take it, without a kiss. Not only is it going to hurt, it’s gonna cost us down the road and so many fucking ways.

The weaponized IRS has been financially raping me for 15 months - taking my entire pension plus a portion of an inheritance from my dead mother - over amounts I disputed for DECADES. I’ve reported all this repeatedly, and submitted reams of medical reports as evidence. Several times, actually, since they “conveniently lose” all evidence that actually works against their lies. I’m $40k in debt from trying to live while this travesty continues. I was uninsured for months bc I cannot afford $12,000 a year in premiums the ACA wants. If that’s affordable, the system is broken. I’ve got a history of cancer and just cancelled my mammogram and colonoscopy bc I cannot afford to self pay for something my crappy policy doesn’t cover. Please give me back my passport that the corrupt Republicans revoked so I can perhaps get back the job I lost and start receiving affordable medical care again elsewhere, since this government has formally stated it doesn’t give a crap about its own citizens.

Oh my goodness Barbara- your post was heartbreaking 💔- I truly hope it gets better‼️

Kim Ramey's avatar

I am literally sick to my stomach and shaking after reading your article. At the very least this is a conflict of interest. This should be stopped immediately! But, seeing as though the idiots in Washington through before the May 20th filing date, I am losing hope.

This makes me physically sick. How can this be happening? WTF is Congress doing but enabling this felon who should be in prison? Nothing. Will this nightmare never end? This man's greed is bottomless.
