We outline several in our 2025 complaint when Trump tried to shakedown the DOJ for $230M in taxpayer funds.
Now he's suing the IRS for $10B.

So an odd thing here is that if you say "an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume" your point is to communicate "it is not really Batman" but the problem is that the real Batman, within the fiction of the comic book "Batman", is also, literally, an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume
