Oversight Committee reaches agreement to obtain Trump financial records

 

The House Oversight and Reform Committee on Thursday reached an agreement to obtain former President Trump’s financial records, Chairwoman Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) announced.

 

The agreement would end a years-long legal battle to obtain Trump’s financial records and require his accounting firm Mazars USA to turn the documents over to the committee.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to find an answer to "when?"  If anyone finds out please post a link.  No reason to assume it will be before 2032.

Lawyers for former President Donald Trump reversed course Thursday, opposing the unsealing of a more detailed list of the items seized during the FBI's Mar-a-Lago search.

But he didn't pay in cash.  Putin to Trump:  "I make you President of Ukraine when war over."

Maybe this has something to do with the wife's NFT business.

 

I like that they gave him back the passport, perhaps it was a subtle way of saying "don't let us keep you here."

I agree. The simplest explanation and the only one that makes sense is that he is just that stupid. I have difficulty accepting that he has a cogent, thought out plan for those documents, other then stashing evidence that may be used against him.

I see him like someone who steals a major art work and keeps it in his home so he can look at it, and gloat over it, whenever he wants.  Though, in Trump's case, I suspect he wouldn't even need to look at it, just the thought of it being there would be enough.

[pomchop]

All well and good that DOJ has a slam dunk case of obstruction....but let's not forget the bigger crime of fomenting a coup and all the many crimes committed in a clown show attempt to overthrow the will of the American voters via a violent insurrection after all of their other lame attempts had failed.  Treason?

[ozimoron]

"Mr. Trump devoured intelligence briefings about his foreign counterparts before and after calls with them. He was eager to deepen his relationships with autocrats like Kim Jong-un of North Korea or Xi Jinping of China and to get leverage over allies he took a personal dislike to, such as Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany, President Emmanuel Macron of France and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada," The Times reported.

 

Trump had reportedly bragged to friends he "knew illicit details" about Macron's sex life.

Having trouble understanding why people are attributing benign motives for Trump's behavior.

 

Look at the Trump Tower meeting with the Russians in 2016, the attempt to trade foreign aid to Ukraine for dirt on Biden, the "Russia, if you're listening..." speech, or the sophistication of the plot to overturn the 2020 election.

 

He didn't have that classified material down in Mar-a-Lago for presidential trophies, or because he's a petulant narcissist. He was planning on leveraging it with whoever he could in exchange for help getting back in the White House in 2024. He needed something he could provide up front, not just vague promises about what he could or would do once he got back in office, and classified documents fit the bill.

 

And another thing that should be pointed out is that because the volume of classified material which was found in FL was so extensive, he had to have gathered it over an extended period of time, which further suggests that his motive for doing so was more profound than just collecting trophies for personal gratification.

Where are the missing documents....this is a disaster of epic proportions, whatever they were on as far as classified material goes means lives are possibly now in danger....

The judge decided to release the list of document seized. We'll know why Trump ultimately did not want to have it published! ????

Off-topic, and misleading.  From your source:

 

"Officials said the piece of equipment, a voter assist terminal that helps people with disabilities cast their ballot on the actual voting machine, came from Wexford County in northwestern Michigan."

 

"Voter assist terminals are not used to tabulate ballots but are typically used by voters with disabilities who need assistance marking their ballot privately at polling places."

[ballpoint]

The Trump Tower in Manhattan is the home to the "45 Wine and Whisky" bar, where you, and other losers, can soak up Trump's narcisism while soaking up his overpriced beverages, surrounded by memorabilia of his term in office, including copies of the trade and space force deals he signed, a Trump football, and a photo of him holding a newspaper touting his acquital in one of his impeachment trials.  Oh, and an empty "classified" folder prominently displayed in a glass cabinet.

 

 

 

[ozimoron]

"Dozens of EMPTY folders labeled 'Classified' or 'Return to Military Aide.' Trump didn’t pack up EMPTY folders to take with him to FLA. Things just went from bad to worse to unfathomably dangerous."

FBI found exactly what Trump set up for them and wanted them to find.

 

The damaging docs the FBI and DOJ want to find, the Russia hoax, crossfire hurricane ETC docs, the same docs that will crucify Obama, Biden, Clinton,Clapper, Brennan, Comey, and so on ARE suddenly unaccounted for and NOWHERE to be found. NARA knows not where they are. You see, Trump has something the Washington swamp wants, want so bad they will go to any extreme to get. The liberals are in panic mode, and will get torched sometime early after the midterms.

Are you Trump's personal trusted confidante and BFF? Or is your imagination running wild.

 

You claim it, You own it. How about YOU backing it up?

The MAGA crowd don't need, nor want, facts as that would only mess with their beliefs. They're a cult, and cultists have faith, and that makes them impossible to engage with, impervious to facts/truth and unpredictable and dangerous when their god/idol eventually crashes and burns.

Clearly, you've learned nothing from previous and similar unfulfilled predictions. The storm that is always predicted to be coming somehow never shows up. It seems that there's a long-term drought in effect. Maybe the absence of storms is another consequence of global warming?
