Journalist Tim O'Brien, who's seen Trump's taxes, thinks Trump's accountant will now flip in D.A. inquiry
https://currently.att.yahoo.com/att/...l&uh_test=1_11
Bloomberg's Tim O'Brien, one of the few journalists who has seen former President Donald Trump's tax returns, told MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell on Thursday night he will sleep better now that Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance finally has eight years of Trump's financial documents, from 2011 to 2019. Trump "is very afraid of what's in these documents, I think," because they put him in serious criminal jeopardy, O'Brien said, but he isn't the only one implicated.
O'Brien went on to explain why he thinks it's likely Trump's chief accountant, Allen Weisselberg, is likely to flip on Trump. "The thing to really focus in on here is that it's not just the tax records that Cy Vance has now," O'Brien said. "He probably has reams and reams of the accountant's work product. This is a criminal case, they're going to need to prove criminal intent on the part of Trump, his three eldest children, Allen Weisselberg, and anyone else in the Trump Organization who's fallen under the parameters of this investigation. And if there are email and notes and other records of communication about what they intended to do when they inflated the value of buildings so they could get loans against them and then turned around and deflated the value of the buildings so they could pay lower taxes on them, and there's a communication around that that predates any of these tax entries, that is gold for a prosecutor."
A few hours earlier, O'Brien told MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace that the particular eight years of documents Vance's team has "is important, because it predates Trump's ascent into the White House, and I think helps build the narrative around the money trail and Trump's motivations for his destructive and obscene dance with people like Vladimir Putin. It's a shame they couldn't go back further — think this is one of the tragic misses of Robert Mueller's investigation, he could have gone back further, I think, than Cy Vance is able to into Trump's finances."
O'Brien also underscored that the investigation implicates at least Eric Trump and Ivanka Trump, and "it also targets people inside the Trump Organization who might flip on Trump if they're exposed to criminal liability," but "the brass ring in all of this is that if Trump has a criminal conviction, he cannot run for president again, and that's looming over this entire thing as well."
C'MON MAN!!!!

If you think that Trump has cheated on his taxes, then you have to believe that the IRS was in on it. The IRS audits his returns every year. Think about it, fool.
Excellent news, very excellent!

The inquiry is not into tax cheating.
You see, the IRS has rules set up to have a narrow scope of inquiry. The look into specific things, and if they see something other than that thing, they keep quiet. Its to encourage drug dealers to continue paying taxes without fear of prosecution.
The DA has a much more broad scope of inquiry, fool.

How about you take your own advice and think about it. This is a question about who Trump is doing business with and how he is representing his wealth. This isn't an audit of his taxes. It's a criminal investigation into his business practices. Why do you suppose he doesn't want Vance to have his taxes? Think about THAT fool.

So the IRS and the NY tax agency ignore criminal activity? what exactly do you think he did that is criminal.
who do you think he did business with illegally? Be specific and stop the stupid generalization bullshit.
Next, tell us how Hunter and Joe got away with laundering billions from China into their personal accounts. You dems better think about this, what goes around, comes around. The Biden's are not clean, neither are Pelosi and Schumer and many others in both parties. But lets investigate how all of them became ultra rich on congressional salaries. you up for that?
