The IRS didn't have to release Biden's tax returns. HE DID. Just like every other major presidential candidate has done for decades.
Are you saying that Trump was obligated to release his tax returns because doing so is a tradition?

So he’s made a slush fund with tax payer money? Blatant corruption in the open
That's certainly what it appears to be.

It was a $10B invasion. How much of the $10B went to the plaintiff?

While this may have the appearance of extreme corruption, I feel it is--for the sake of fairness--important to keep in mind all the money siphoned to Trump via the Board of Peace.

I’m debating whether it’s even worth reviewing the basics with you.
Here is a very simple question for you - does the IRS have unlimited authority to settle a monetary lawsuit
Yes or no?
Let's start with that

What about taxpayers? Can I be pissed?

Aren't taxpayers generally pissed at the IRS?

Anything I win I'm gonna give 100 percent to charity - really really good, good and respected charities apparently is the new taxpayers won't pay for the ballroom.
It's all sort of surreal.

These guys are extremely creative. They win by settling and the settlement magnifies the win exponentially.
Prosecutors and leftist judges are pissed right now
The liberal tears are delicious.

Trump destroying the republican party is pretty fun to watch at this point.
I predicted it in 2016, its coming to pass.

Maybe don't know. I do know I'm pissed at what seems to be non-stop graft at this point.

The last time I looked 8 of the 10 countries that currently make up the BoP had contributed nothing to the pot, despite all pledging to do so. We have pitched in somewhere around $10 billion, and I forget the other country. Meanwhile, the body that has been tabbed to lead the reconstruction of Gaza hasn't even been able to make it into Gaza at this point.
That "20 point plan" may well wind up being a disaster that ties us (via future administrations) to the future security of Gaza.

Yeah, I get that. I agree.
But that's not what I asked.

Hopefully, this settlement, and it's fund, will serve as a basis of future discouragement of such behavior.
it will be another tactic future administration will abuse to channel tax payer money to political operatives
If government is ever used in that way again, there should be a price to pay.
