Unclear to me whether the Biden administration did anything to Lindell at all. He went bankrupt because he’s a coke-addicted moron.

Senate Republicans abruptly abandoned plans to take up a filibuster-proof bill on Thursday to fund President Trump’s immigration crackdown, a stunning turn demonstrating that members of his own party were not willing to risk politically toxic votes to advance the president’s personal agenda.

Though senators had widely been expected to bring their legislation to the floor before a weeklong recess, as Mr. Trump had demanded, G.O.P. leaders were unable to overcome deep concerns within their own ranks around the president’s plan to use a federal fund to pay people who claim to have been politically persecuted.

While the measure could still be taken up when lawmakers return, the delay underscored a toxic dynamic between the White House and the Republican-controlled Congress just months before the midterm elections.

Republicans had already appeared ready to jettison the White House’s request to include $1 billion for Mr. Trump’s ballroom project from the bill, after a small group of senators made clear they would not vote to advance it.

But there was even wider opposition to a Justice Department fund that Mr. Trump has said he wants to use to pay people who claim to have been unfairly targeted by the government. As Republicans discussed a way to curb that fund, Todd Blanche, the acting attorney general, traveled to the Capitol and met with them for roughly two hours behind closed doors.

The private meeting was highly contentious, according to people familiar with the session, who said that Mr. Blanche did not clarify any details on how the fund might be implemented or offer satisfying answers to questions from many senators about the lack of guardrails around the money.

“It is in real trouble — and it should be,” Senator Susan Collins, Republican of Maine, said in an interview shortly after leaving the session.

How does this have anything to do with IRS/taxes?

Trump is mad at something an IRS contractor did in 2020 when Trump was in charge of the IRS. So because he’s in charge of DOJ and the IRS again, he gets to direct DOJ to settle his lawsuit against the IRS with a $1.8B slush fund of your money to dish out to his minions. The DOJ under Biden sent the contractor to prison and the IRS under Biden settled similar lawsuits using none of your money, btw. Hope this helps.

Yeah no I understand that part I just don't understand how he's able to use a treasury fund for his settlement when my understanding is that there's no even legal standing for his lawsuit against the IRS. And why would that settlement be related to people who were quote unquote egregiously agreed by the government the settlement should only be related to anything tax related it shouldn't just be a open fun not that I think the settlement should exist in the beginning.
I mean the whole thing is a f****** farce to begin wuth.

Yes, those were all issues that the federal judge overseeing the lawsuit was concerned about — he also filed the suit years after the infraction — and she asked for briefs on them this week, then Trump quickly withdrew the lawsuit and they announced this private “settlement“ i.e. a thug fund.

With Trump’s Deal, a Possible $100 Million I.R.S. Penalty Melts Away
The tax service argued that the Trump Organization tried to claim the same losses twice. The president said the audit was a “disgrace.”

Since Trump never abides by any agreements, why should anyone else?

Is this really possible? Can the DOJ or IRS or whomever signed this thing really give Trump immunity and his enormous family immunity against any tax prosecution til they die? Does it apply to his grandkids too? We could have many generations of non-tax paying Trumps, who seem to be growing rich with their insider trading and self-dealing.
