A federal appeals court will hear on Sept. 1, President Donald Trump’s emergency request to put on hold a judge’s ruling that would make it possible for Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. to enforce a subpoena for his tax returns and other financial records.
What is in Trump’s tax return that he is so desperate to hide and keeps on delaying his promise to show his tax return “very soon”?
While Trump’s delay in his tax returns is public info/justice denied…
Trump’s delays in Covid-19 response lead to a lot of unnecessary Covid deaths!
Meanwhile…at least justice was not denied to Stormy:
I think Fat Nixon’s attorneys are really taxing the patience of the judge. To the point of no returns.
Petulance really needs to be dealt with immediately, strongly, and with no options to avoid the consequences.
I’m thinking the Supreme Court has had enough of Trump’s tax returns tantrums. They’ve heard the case and ruled. Those tax returns are going to be before a grand jury real soon now. I can’t wait for the leaks to start.
If trump looks guilty of tax fraud and laundering Russian mafia drug money and paying off prostitutes while his wife is pregnant, lying on bank loans…it goes on and on. "I Just Can’t Take It Anymore! "
Gee, if you’re honest, if you have nothing to hide, why do you keep trying to hide stuff?
Tick tock, motherfucker.
And if it was you or me …
They would have had those records 2 years ago and we would be locked up by now
“If you’re honest”? That’s a rhetorical question…right?
He is only delaying the inevitable. Trump’s taxes will be released to the grand jury and the public at some point.
I am so tired of this fascist toad taking advantage of provisions put in place by our system of justice to protect the innocent.
Because there is no doubt in my mind that, were it possible for him to create a draconian system with few or NO protections, Trump would do so, all while declaring himself to be Permanently Innocent.
Didn’t that horse leave the barn 3 1/2 years ago?
IANAL but it would seem to me that if a circuit court is willing to hear an emergency appeal to overturn an order of release, it would also grant the courtesy of a temporary stay until that appeal is heard and ruled on, especially if it’s less than a couple of weeks away, the DA effectively only has a day or two to enforce the subpoena before the hearing, and the possibility of irreparable harm exists. I’m not being nice to Trump, mind you, just thinking in terms of what seems to make sense.
In any case, I assume that given the timing, Vance will hold off on enforcing the subpoena for a day or two, perhaps a bit longer, since such action is likely to take a while anyway (and, unofficially, I’m sure he’d like this to happen as close to the election as possible, for obvious reasons, not just to help Biden and humanity itself, but as payback for 2016, and perhaps because he’d like to be the new US Attorney for SDNY given that the NY AG is taken) and even if he enforced it and got the records, if the ruling ended up going in Trump’s favor, these records would be permanently seized and of no use to him.
Either way, it’s clearly going to SCOTUS, and I’m pretty sure they’ll rule against Trump, again. Although who knows, the previous ruling was on general principles but this one will be based on the facts of the case and applicable law. Stay tuned.
ILLegal. TrUmp has Blanket Immunity. CoNstitutioaL criSiS!
That the 2nd Circuit refused to grant a stay says (to me, anyway) that Trump has little chance of success on September 1st.
Why has this become the story? The Daniels tryst was a little after the birth. I somehow doubt she was pregnant again. And the payoffs came some 11 years later. You are doing your credibility no favors.
Given the garbage they submitted as “evidence” to the trial court, I think their chance of success approaches zero.
I hope we’re right.
In other news, they seem to be having trouble getting the WiFi for the RNC to respond to all the ankle bracelets being worn by the speakers.
To his 40% he really could murder someone in Times Sq and they wouldn’t blink an eyelash. He’s their padrone, the man who sticks it to people like you and me whom they despise and blame for their ignorance and misery.
Hey, Donnie, what have you got to lose?
