Donald Bender, who stuck with Trump and the Trump Organization even as he worked at several different accounting firms, testified against the former president’s eponymous family company in Manhattan criminal court.
Bender prepared taxes for the Weisselbergs and the Trumps — including company executives Don Jr., Ivanka, Eric. He was technically a witness for the Trump Organization, claiming incredulously that he had reviewed all the books but somehow had no idea executives were doing this for years. But prosecutors tore that down as the sunset’s orange glow began to fill the courtroom.
Unlike the Trump Organization employees who testified before him, this accountant wasn’t going down with the ship. The global accounting company where Bender maintains his practice, Mazars USA, decided to ditch the Trump Organization earlier this year and disavow any of its financial statements. This week, Bender did the same on the witness stand.

Trump might have to face his worst nightmare — a D.C. jury
Federal prosecutors on Tuesday, under the direction of newly appointed Special Counsel Jack Smith, argued to the 11th Circuit Court that they should immediately shut down the Special Master process created by Judge Aileen Cannon.
Under that process, former President Donald Trump has the opportunity to challenge the search warrant executed at his office and residence long before he is indicted. Virtually no other criminal defendant has ever been given that opportunity.
The Oral Argument Shows That The 11th Circuit Is Likely To Reverse
Based on the oral argument, it appears that the 11th Circuit is about to bring the curtain down on the sideshow that Judge Cannon created. The three judges on the panel (two appointed by Trump, one appointed by George W. Bush) expressed extreme skepticism that Judge Cannon had the jurisdiction to take any action before indictment and, even if she did, that she had a factual predicate to have enjoined the Justice Department and appointed a Special Master.

Quote:General John Kelly—Trump’s former chief of staff—publicly stated that the former president demanded that the IRS conduct audits of his perceived enemies, including former FBI Director James Comey and former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.

If Trump made this demand while he was president, that is an unambiguous felony. Section 7217 of Title 26 of the United States Code makes it a crime for the “President” to “request, directly or indirectly, any officer or employee of the Internal Revenue Service to conduct or terminate an audit or other investigation of any particular taxpayer with respect to the tax liability of such taxpayer.”
A president who unlawfully seeks to have an individual audited is subject to up to five years in prison. The crime does not require that the IRS actually carry out the audit. The crime is completed with the mere request.
Here, however, there is strong evidence that Trump’s illegal demand was actually carried out. As reported earlier this summer, both Comey and McCabe were subjected to highly unusual IRS audits. The odds of an individual randomly being subjected to this type of audit are similar to being struck by lightning.

I've been audited. I haven't been struck by lightning.
They'd better have video evidence or legitimate signed documentation of Trump making that order, or this is one more lie that will go nowhere and make morons like you even more rabid when it fails, like everything else you've tried to do to Trump fails.

Quote:Richard Nixon ordered the IRS to audit his enemies, which is why Congress and President Ford, Nixon's replacement, made it illegal. That law doesn't automatically enforce itself. If the prosecutors don't enforce it because Trump and his defenders falsely swear it never happened then Trump doesn't go to jail. It is a very silly legal setup when criminals can go free based upon how many liars the criminal can afford to hire to swear to the criminal's innocence, but that's the silliness designed by lawyers to protect those who have a lot of money, enough to buy as many perjurers as needed to sway at least one juror.

Not pertinent to our discussion.

I know you hate the freedoms and rights that Americans have, but here in America you are innocent until proven guilty.
So once again I won't be reading the rest of your post because your brain is damaged and I don't bother trying to have real discussions with retarded people.

Quote:You have just explained why Trumptards and 6ixStringJack have had many failures in life. Trumptards refuse to admit they have done wrong and, therefore, don't correct themselves to avoid more failures. Their wife divorces them because they committed adultery and the Trumptard will deny they committed adultery. The Trumptard gets fired for embezzlement and the Trumptard will continue denying the money was stolen. Despite all of the Trumptard's denials, their marriage is over and their job has ended, along with their income, but until death, the Trumptard can continue to say they are innocent because nobody proved to the satisfaction of the Trumptard that they were guilty. Sadly, the Trumptards will get married and divorced more than once because they didn't learn their lesson. And the Trumptards will get hired and fired, again, because they didn't learn. Why should they learn? They are always innocent and the hero of their stories -- at least in their own mind.

I await you going back through your post history and presenting the class with all the times you've ever admitted you've ever done wrong or ever were wrong.
I won't hold my breath because it never happened.
Meanwhile, there's plenty of evidence of me admitting to my shortcomings and failures on this board, and subsequently learning from my mistakes, fixing things that I could, and realizing the fact that there are some things you just can't fix, making peace with that fact, and moving on.
That being said... Get fucked, liar. Look in a mirror. All of your baseless charges you've ever put against anyone here are simply projections of your own guilt for being a walking and talking piece of human garbage. You are doomed to die a failure at life because you never take a look at yourself and you are exactly the same shitty person you were when I stopped drinking just one month shy of 6 years ago.
You are a waste of carbon.
