President Donald J. Trump is suing the U.S. Treasury and Internal Revenue Service.
ANY THOUGHTS?
The Twenty-fifth Amendment (Amendment XXV) to the United States Constitution addresses issues related to presidential succession and disability.
It clarifies that the vice president becomes president if the president dies, resigns, or is removed from office by impeachment. It also establishes the procedure for filling a vacancy in the office of the vice president.
The amendment provides for the temporary transfer of the president's powers and duties to the vice president, either on the president's initiative alone or on the initiative of the vice president, together with a majority of the president's cabinet. In either case, the vice president becomes the acting president until the president's powers and duties are restored.
Highly doubt Vice President JD Vance will gather Cabinet officials to demand the president act right or be pushed to the side. Hell, I believe he scares them and it's sad.
Someone could punch him in the face and he could die. No I am not encouraging violence on the President of the United States. I do not support any violence on anyone. I will not condone it though. I can not put empathy on antipathy.
The president who only pays less than $1,000 in taxes federal and state is suing the IRS after a man leaked his, Donald Trump, Jr., and Eric Trump's tax returns. It led to the New York Attorney General Letitia James to sue the Trump Organization for fraud.
Trump claimed the IRS failed in their obligation to prevent the leak of those tax records by former IRS employee Charles “Chaz” Littlejohn in 2019 and 2020.
Trump is the first U.S. president to be a billionaire, a convicted felon, a sexual predator, twice impeached, senile, online troll. He is the very definition of white privilege and entitlement.
He is an elitist.
Trump, thanks to his namesake, his "Art of the Deal" talk, his endless demonizing of critics and yes, his racism made him the 45th/47th President. He and Grover Cleveland will be the most polarizing two separate terms presidents in U.S. history.
Had the junk food media ignored him.....
Had former president Joe Biden allowed the U.S. Justice Department handle the matter the day after his acquittal from the Senate after the second impeachment trial....
Had Trump been sentenced to time in the iron college or federal time out.....
We wouldn't be in this mess.
The plaintiffs seek at least $10 billion in damages, according to the lawsuit in Miami federal court.
The civil complaint alleges that the IRS and Treasury failed in their obligation to prevent the leak of those tax records by former IRS employee Charles “Chaz” Littlejohn in 2019 and 2020.
In addition to Trump, the plaintiffs are his sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, and the Trump Organization, which the sons run.
A spokesman for Trump’s legal team told CNBC in a statement, “The IRS wrongly allowed a rogue, politically-motivated employee to leak private and confidential information about President Trump, his family, and the Trump Organization to the New York Times, ProPublica and other left-wing news outlets, which was then illegally released to millions of people.”
“President Trump continues to hold those who wrong America and Americans accountable,” the spokesman said.
The suit was filed three days after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he had cancelled all of his department’s contracts with the consulting firm Booz Allen Hamilton
in connection with the company’s contractor, Littlejohn, stealing and leaking confidential tax returns.
Littlejohn, 40, is serving a five-year prison sentence after having pleaded guilty in October 2023 to one count of disclosure of tax return information.
He admitted to leaking Trump’s tax records to The New York Times, and also admitted to leaking records about wealthy individuals to the news outlet ProPublica.
The news lawsuit says that Littlejohn, in a 2024 deposition, admitted disclosing “Trump information [that] included all businesses that he had owned” to the investigative news outlet ProPublica.

The suit asserts that ProPublica’s subsequent reporting on Trump’s tax documents falsely claimed that the records contained “versions of fraud.”
While that quote does appear in ProPublica’s October 2019 report, it comes from Nancy Wallace, a finance and real estate professor at the University of California-Berkeley’s Haas School of Business.
Wallace was one of a dozen real estate professionals interviewed by ProPublica who said they saw no clear explanation for “multiple inconsistencies in the documents,” according to the report.
“Defendants have caused Plaintiffs reputational and financial harm, public embarrassment, unfairly tarnished their business reputations, portrayed them in a false light, and negatively affected President Trump, and the other Plaintiffs’ public standing,” the lawsuit says.
It’s all but unheard of for a sitting president to sue their own administration, and the exorbitant damages figure being demanded raises various conflict-of-interest questions.
But Trump has reportedly made similar moves in the recent past: The New York Times reported in October that Trump sought $230 million from the Department of Justice as compensation for its past investigations into him.
