The secret of why Donald Trump won't release his taxes

Havana Moon said:
On June 20, 2012, the Oversight Committee voted 23–17 along party lines to hold Holder in contempt of Congress for not releasing documents the committee had requested. ... On June 28, 2012, Holder became the first U.S. Attorney General in history to be held in both criminal and civil contempt.

And now Barr will be the second.

No way Trump has $3,500,000,000

No way Trump has $3,500,000.

No way Trump has $3,500.

No way Trump has $35.

No way Trump has $3.50.

No way Trump even has $0.35.

He's broke and he conned you because you're a fucking idiot.
 
No, President Trump did not call Nazis very fine people.

"During a press conference Tuesday President Trump once again commented on the violence in Charlottesville. Naturally, his remarks were instantly mis-characterized to portray Trump as condoning the very neo-Nazis and white supremacists he condemned in a brief speech Monday.

In no time, the political media set began virtue signalling based on inaccurate summations of what Trump said. Heaven forbid media actually listen to or watch the words on which they comment.

This rush to blame without proper knowledge has become a common occurance thanks to summaries like this one. Apparently, taking two minutes to watch the included video is too arduous a task."

"News anchors and pundits have repeated lies about Donald Trump and race so often that some of these narratives seem true, even to Americans who embrace the fruits of the president’s policies. The most pernicious and pervasive of these lies is the “Charlottesville Hoax,” the fake-news fabrication that he described the neo-Nazis who rallied in Charlottesville, Va., in August 2017 as “fine people.”

Just last week I exposed this falsehood, yet again, when CNN contributor Keith Boykin falsely stated, “When violent people were marching with tiki torches in Charlottesville, the president said they were ‘very fine people.’” When I objected and detailed that Trump’s “fine people on both sides” observation clearly related to those on both sides of the Confederate monument debate, and specifically excluded the violent supremacists, anchor Erin Burnett interjected, “He [Trump] didn’t say it was on the monument debate at all. No, they didn’t even try to use that defense. It’s a good one, but no one’s even tried to use it, so you just used it now.”

I know I do. Blech:palm:

And another thing, there is like absolutely nothing good that they stand for on issues. Oppose science, oppose art,
hell they can't even admit wealth disparity is a legitimate problem, much less talk about doing something about it.


For them it is all about the individual self interest while the earth turns to a polluted shithole, kids attention span goes
to zero like theirs, they eat shit processed foods, the wealthy are a class of nobles above all law, they have crap healthcare
if any, mortality rates explode, and the US becomes a backwater shithole nation with crumbling infrastructure while
the ruddy faced, orange conman picks petty squabbles with every country on earth and cozies up only to the most despicable

despots.

Republicans have made populism a dirty word.

One of those sides was all Nazis.

That wasn’t what he was talking about. He was talking about the non bro Nazis that were opposed to the statues being taken down.

Now I know to a shallow thinker like you they are one and the same. But they are not

In September 2012, after a nineteen-month review, the United States Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General cleared the Attorney General of any wrongdoing with regard to Fast and Furious, stating that there was "no evidence" that Holder knew about the operation before early 2011. The report did cite fourteen lower ranking officials for possible disciplinary action.[139] Holder responded to the internal investigation, saying "It is unfortunate that some were so quick to make baseless accusations before they possessed the facts about these operations – accusations that turned out to be without foundation and that have caused a great deal of unnecessary harm and confusion."[140]
In retrospective, David Weigel of Bloomberg Businessweek called the contempt of Congress vote "both popular and stunningly ineffective, enraging Holder and turning him into a more outspoken and implacable foe of Republican policies on voting rights and policing."[141] In August 2014, federal judge Amy Berman Jackson ordered the Justice Department to provide Congress with some of the previously withheld documents that had led Congress to hold Holder in contempt.[142]

That meant it was ok to refuse to give Congress documents they had requested?
