‘Completely hollow’: critics denounce Blanche deal to halt Trump slush fund. Trump can reverse any decision regarding the illegal slush fund/ Trump, his sons, and his businesses are all still immune from any audit or criminal activity found by the IRS. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The Trump administration's newest corruption scheme just dropped. Kash Patel may be using the FBI's budget as his personal slush fund to pay agents tens of thousands of dollars in exchange for carrying out illegal orders, or as hush money to keep quiet about what they witnessed.

Nothing makes someone look guiltier than forcing the Justice Department to promise never to investigate your taxes or prosecute you for anything they might find

For Trump and his friends: - A $1.8 billion slush fund, paid for by you. - A $1 billion ballroom, paid for by you. For you and other American taxpayers: - Millions kicked off health care. - Highest gas prices in 5 years. - Soaring costs for groceries and other necessities.

Trump sued the IRS. His DOJ settled it. Buried in the deal: the IRS can never audit Trump, his kids, or the Trump Org again. A pending audit could’ve cost him $100M+. He paid $750 in taxes in 2016. $750 in 2017. $0 in 2020. You likely paid more than the president. This is corruption as governance.

Trump is considering dropping his $10 billion IRS lawsuit in exchange for the creation of a $1.7 billion slush fund that he controls (funded by taxpayers) to pay graft, bribes, & kickbacks to allies who claim they were wrongfully targeted by the Biden administration. abcnews.com/US/trump-poi...

The apparent large flows of bribe money from various middle eastern autocracies to the Trump family, first through hotels etc now maybe this investment fund, kinda seems like a big deal to me. pic.twitter.com/i2hihboGbB
