🚨BREAKING: Trump's IRS nominee Billy Long just had his personal debt paid off by donors whose firms have business before the tax agency he’d lead, according to documents reviewed by The Lever.

If confirmed, Long would be able to do favors for the donors. www.levernews.com/trump-irs-pi...

The White House basically gave Boasberg no choice. And unless they start cooperating very quickly, possibly even if they do, they’re looking at criminal contempt like a freight train. That’s going to raise some tricky issues of penalty, but the underlying finding should be secure. What total jerks.

Honestly I'm glad they picked Harvard to try out this novel "we're mad" legal theory of revoking tax-exempt status, given its infinite resources, deep network of powerful alumni, and law school attended by 142 sitting federal judges.

Good luck! 🫡

Marco Rubio says that Americans living in Europe shouldn't ever have to face any ramifications for their political speech online.

The chutzpah is jaw-dropping, as he is PERSONALLY trying to deport legal immigrants for their political speech in the United States.

A Trump ally has told CNN’s parent company that they could avoid future lawsuits from the Trump administration if they make a documentary about Melania Trump or a TV show about Donald Trump Jr., which would involve paying the Trump family large amounts of money.
A Donald Trump ally has a suggestion for Warner Bros. Discovery: Why don't you pay us or give us a TV show?
Donald Trump is suing some media companies. But he's also open to deals with them, like one with WBD that could include money, programming, or both.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.

That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.

So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

Kilmar Abrego Garcia lived in Maryland with his wife and their three children, and has never been charged with any crime.

The Department of Homeland Security issued him a work permit, and he joined a union, working full time as a sheet metal apprentice.

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination.

He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech.

Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin.

So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia has committed hundreds of crimes. And the fact that we can’t find evidence of any of them proves just how devious he was about covering it all up.
