Over the weekend, the allegations returned to the fore, and for good reason. The New York Times reported on Saturday:
John F. Kelly, who served as former President Donald J. Trump’s second White House chief of staff, said in a sworn statement that Mr. Trump had discussed having the Internal Revenue Service and other federal agencies investigate two F.B.I. officials involved in the investigation into his campaign’s ties to Russia. Mr. Kelly said that his recollection of Mr. Trump’s comments to him was based on notes that he had taken at the time in 2018. Mr. Kelly provided copies of his notes to lawyers for one of the F.B.I. officials, who made the sworn statement public in a court filing.
I get what you’re saying, but Hunter did recently plead guilty to tax crimes.
not paying his taxes makes him smart. or so i was told.
And also unlawfully possessing a firearm, but you’d expect the right to love that.
Oh so is the GOP going to start disparaging people for tax crimes? Usually that doesn’t hurt their opinion of people.
Tax crimes by a private citizen do not warrant the resources being used up during this witch hunt.
He pled guilty to lying on a form about his addiction while purchasing a firearm and not paying taxes for two years while he was an addict (through he paid the back taxes after that eventually I think).
I honestly appreciate the fact that everyone was transparent about this and chose to be upfront and take responsibility rather than do all the shit that republicans do when accused of something.
He did. It was a plea bargain that included dropping the charges of improper gun ownership.
