The deal also extended unusual tax protections to #Trump, his family & their businesses, shielding them from all past tax claims — an extremely lucrative benefit for Trump who has repeatedly complained about burdensome #IRS audits.

…At issue for both senators is the agreement #ToddBlanche & the #DOJ announced in the spring to resolve #Trump’s lawsuit against the #IRS over the leak of his personal tax returns.
The deal, which was NOT approved by a #court, would have created a nearly $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded pool of money to reward people who claim they were victims of politically motivated prosecutions.

Crap. Now #Trump is saying he’ll just wait until #JohnCornyn & #ThomTillis leave the #Senate, & then he’ll re-nominate #ToddBlanche.

Trump suggested Thursday that he could withdraw Blanche’s nomination to become attorney general until next year, as a standoff continues with the 2 Republican senators who are demanding concessions from the admin before supporting Blanche.

#Trump said Thursday he may pull the nomination of #ToddBlanche for Attorney General, looking to avoid concessions to holdout #Republicans. Lawmakers on Wednesday scrapped a planned committee vote after key Republicans demanded more assurances about the “settlement” of Trump’s lawsuit against the #IRS.

That would give the Trump admin 3 AGs in less than 2 years.

The reasons for creating the #SlushFund, #ToddBlanche told lawmakers, “remain as important as they were before.”

[Cornyn & Thillis better stay strong & yovte against this confirming this corrupt lickspittle. More #Republicans should be against him!]

“This answer is, at best, misleading &, at worst, disingenuous. The court was available to review any pleading by any party at any time during this lawsuit,” the judge wrote.

Another federal judge, Leonie M. Brinkema of the Eastern District of Virginia, has left alive a lawsuit seeking to dismantle the #SlushFund.

Vaughn will receive a seven-figure settlement from the US government, his lawyers said, making him among those aligned with the #Trump admin who have received a payout by an alternative means.

…The continuing ability of the #DOJ to make such payouts with or without a formal fund structure is one of the sticking points between the Trump admin & Republican senators as they weigh the nomination of #ToddBlanche….

As senators delayed a crucial vote on #ToddBlanche’s nomination to be attorney general over the so-called weaponization fund, a million-dollar payment the #DOJ made to an #AntiAbortion activist underscored how it could still funnel #TaxpayersMoney to people who claim to be victims of government persecution [& whose politics #Trump agrees with].

A seven-figure “settlement” was announced hours before senators skeptical about the so-called weaponization fund delayed a crucial vote on #ToddBlanche’s nomination to be #US #AttorneyGeneral.

#Asylum seekers could be sent directly to #deportation under new federal rule

The #Trump admin rule, which took effect immediately, could transfer nearly 450,000 cases to #immigration “judges” [immigration judges are part of the #DOJ not the #judiciary], who could dismiss the asylum petitions.
