Shining a beacon on why trump continues to pursue an exemption from the IRS. He gets Blanche, minus the 1776 billion for his mass insurrectionists, but keeps any audits of possible past money laundering for him, two of his sons, and the hundreds, if not thousands, of his companies.

You are suffering from the strong delusion sent from the Lord upon all those who will not accept a love of truth. See 2 Thessalonians ch 2

Thank you, Allison. WOW, the more you learn about the tRUMP’s, the worse it gets. We appreciate you.

Jan. 6th was not political expression. It was several crimes, on several levels.

By definition one can argue it was domestic terrorism.

So then, so was the Boston tea party, correct?

Man baby has gotta cry whenever anyone holds him to account. He is the most aggrieved human on planet earth. He is a mob boss. He expects everything to be run to his whim. There is a reporter who released yesterday T relationship with the Tates and the huge sex trafficking, world government influence, and mob tactics they are involved with. It dovetails with Epstein and T complicity there. It is supposed to be even larger and even involves Barron. This is why the Tates think they are untouchable. I’d like to know more regarding this. We need all of this screamed from the mountain tops and sky scrapers!

Thanks Allison!

I would love to see the associated SARs and what exactly the AML findings were: were they facilitating, structuring, avoiding OFAC sanction regimes?

Yet, NOW, Capital One is busy taking over Discover Card!!! And they are harassing me about $3.00 being owed on Capital One and told me I am risking a charge of $4.00 being assessed to the $3.00 I owe them, which I was not aware of. I mailed a check and Capitol one didn’t call or write or text me they didn’t have it. Rather, the ongoing antics are happening from Capital One. Horrible company and now they are forcing Discover out of the credit card business! Capital One people are rude as well.

Never ever treated this way with Discover people!

Never ever did I expect Capitol One to do the right thing. Losing the excellence of Discover service and corporate culture is awful but this news compensates a tad. Hum, takes a criminal organization to know the pitfalls?

Oh damn! I’ve held a discover card since they first opened a credit card business. What a damn waste.

Brenda Bridgett's avatar

I plan to cancel Capital One and take out some other credit card. Not giving them any more cash since I see how freaky they behave over the $3.00!!

I really appreciate you and Dana’s intelligent comments on the news and bringing to light news that was meant to go under the radar. TY!

Question: if the state bar to which Blanche’s behavior has been referred were to disbar him, would he even be allowed to act as Acting AG? If so, let’s get that state bar on the case!!

Colleen Wetteland's avatar

Sorry to say I heard one does not need to be a lawyer to be AG! I know - pretty stupid. That needs to change!

Annie's avatar

True- and equally as disgusting as the rest of this administration shows us that we have to change things.

"Candidates must have a J.D. or L.L.B. degree and must be, at the time of appointment, a current, active member in good standing of a State, territory of the United States, District of Columbia, or Commonwealth of Puerto Rico bar." That's from https://legalknowledgebase.com/what-are-the-requirements-to-be-the-attorney-general-of-the-united-states.

If any state bar disbarred Blanche, that might well disqualify him, but that's very unlikely to happen in the course of these confirmation hearings. Do those qualifications apply to *acting* AGs? I don't know. Blanche's nomination seems to be in trouble in any case.

Lou Kinsey 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦🇺🇸's avatar

We have had one non-lawyer appointed as AG because:

“How do you become the United States attorney general?

Under the Appointments Clause of the United States Constitution, the officeholder is nominated by the president of the United States, and, following a confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, will take office if confirmed by the majority of the full United States Senate.”

That’s all that is required of every cabinet level department. But I had to read further down from that site you listed. There are specific educational and professional requirements to work as a US AG for all districts, including having a law degree and a law license in the state they will serve as an AG, as opposed to THE AG.

Thank you for the clarification on Trump's money laundering. Trump owning Trump is something I'm certainly down for.

D.E. Rising's avatar

Awesome summary. As hilarious as it is maddening

Marliss Desens's avatar

Trump couldn't quit while he was behind.

Jeff Bush's avatar

Trump can’t even criminal without looking stupid.

criminals, most are usually stupid

Kathleen Daly's avatar

This was in 2021. This should have been highlighted and prosecuted. It is absurd that our legal system can’t operate in a time frame that serves the people and this country.

ruminator's avatar

Voters need to know things like this. It should have ended the 2024 election campaign, but Capital One gave him every possible benefit while following the law.

This guy will NEVER be happy, I take some solace in that.

Peter Doubt's avatar

It's criminal that our “legal” system seals results which protect Criminals

Cate's avatar

WOW!!! Thank you Capital One. Never thought those words would ever fall out of my mouth!!

I was out in Cali a few years ago, at Jalama Beach, a favorite place for campers and surfers. I went in for my Tuna Burger and there on the shelf was Trump Wine. I burst out laughing. Now that was just too much I thought. I also found it interesting that I had never Heard of trump wine anywhere before seeing this bottle. I mean I was in Wine country, never saw it anywhere on the shelves, never heard of a winery with his name on it. Seemed weird. But then again, he always has these useless products on the market, watches , coins, ect, Well this explains it. Money laundering.

This must be one of the reasons for Blanche putting the clause exempting the Trump Syndicate from IRS audits in the Weaponization Fund.

If more companies would stand up to DJT and associates law suits perhaps his disgusting behavior would get Congress to think twice about supporting him.

Our country is being run by criminals.

There’s no-one who gets quite to the heart of his venery like you do, Allison. You are a national treasure!
