A court-ordered financial auditor has caught Donald Trump quietly moving $40 million from the Trump Organization into a personal bank account—seemingly so the former president could pay his whopping $29 million tax bill.
Trump isn’t supposed to be moving any money around without alerting Barbara S. Jones, a former federal judge in New York tasked with babysitting the Trump Organization for its relentlessly shady business practices. But on Wednesday, she notified a New York state court about some major bank transfers that were never brought to her attention by the Trumps.
Cool cool cool, that’s just great. So there are going to be immediate legal consequences, right???
Fuck I’m so tired of this.
Oh yes yes, consequences aplenty! They are facing a fine of several thousand dollars here! Justice at long last!!
You forgot the strongly worded reprimand. He’ll think twice next time.
Susan Collins thinks he has already leaned his lesson.
I’m honestly starting to think he was sent to us as some sort of test to see how much bullshit we’ll put up with before we revolt, and we’re fucking failing.
Makes me think of Vault 11 from Fallout New Vegas where the population has to sacrifice one person every year or everyone would be killed.
Only it was a test and if they refused then nobody is killed. But they send sacrifices for almost 200 years.
Did the sacrifices that were sent actually get killed?
Oh yep, yep they did.
[End Turn.]
This made my day.
Just how fast you want them to move?! This was reported to the court TODAY.
And he stole classified documents three years ago. He orchestrated a failed coup three years ago too. At the rate this is going he’s going to be elected grand emperor and he will just dismiss the cases against him.
Probably before with the many laws he’s already broken and been indicted for.
Wake me up if he’s in a high max security prison with an orange jumpsuit and a tear tattooed next to his eye
the legal ramifications for Trump is so great, that it’ll spill over to people who shouldn’t be in trouble but sadly had the letter ‘T’ in their name. So sorry Tommy and Tina, you’re going to jail cause our Orange Idiot is too rich.
Oh, you too Anthony and Bridgette, don’t think we didn’t see those T’s hiding!
This is already done and has been for months. They are just trying to figure out exactly how fucked over here is.
What’s the issue here exactly?
You legally can’t treat a corporation as your personal ATM.
