#MSNBC #Trump #Ivanka
Oh well she lied saying she didn’t know Uncle Alan
Kind of like Hunter Biden lying on the federal ATF Form 4473 to unlawfully purchase a handgun????
@Truthseeker1 oh yes bc tax evasion and illegally purchasing a handgun are the same crimes…both awful crimes. Nothing to do with the other.
@Meghan Hixon Stop deflecting by bringing up Hunter.
@Truthseeker1 Source please?
@Meghan Hixon Obviously both are crimes but are you actually claiming not paying your taxes is a crime on the same level as illegally purchasing a handgun by a prohibited possessor??? You tell me one person on this thread, including you, who hasn’t “padded” your income tax deductions??? You’re essentially saying not paying adequate taxes, because supposedly its in the millions is liken to it’s a more serious crime because Biden bought a “moderately powerful” .38 cal revolver rather than an “extremely powerful” .44 cal magnum.
How perfect is this! The Apple of his eye, is the thorn in his side
😀😆😁😄🤣😆😃😄
“Sorry, Daddy – it’s only business.”
@julia howard You sure? Kitty seems like just another Trumpet playing his trombone. There area lot of delusional people. To be a troll one has to at least know they’re saying nonsense.
Then again it’s very common to be betrayed by your side chick 🤮
@kitty wiskers kiki tRumpdumblicans- so well named. Can’t even manage to spell Democratic correctly? Get it together kiki.
Ivanka is already distancing herself from her ex or Sugar Daddy or whatever donny is to her. 🖐 bye donny.
@Anand K yes
Trump would date her he said. What a cringe.
“I’m the worlds best french kisser. My daddy says so” -princess sparkle pony
@Ms. Ann no one with the name trump will ever again be considered a serious candidate
she’s a coward, just like her dad
I Really Like Jason Johnson! He’s like a legal wizard and a DJ doing the News. Rock on Jason!!🎩🇺🇸🎩🇺🇸🎩
Three cheers for ‘Fiddy’!
🤣🤣👏🏿👏🏿👍🏿🇬🇧
As I mentioned elsewhere, Jason Johnson is Tim Russert-esque. He has the congeniality, the extensive research mentality, the very analytical mind, and an everyman demeanor that makes him very approachable. I am expecting to see a great future in him.
That black nerd is a silly potato head just like you😂😂🤣
Guess they want to divert attention from Hunter, huh? Ha! His laptop, his emails, his love of hookers, art work selling for huge amounts and not releasing the names of purchasers? Really? If Don Jr did that, it’d be all over the news 24/7. C’mon guys! What happened to journalism?????? As football fans know–the best defense if a good offense.
Definitely Jason is sharp as a tac. I welcome him in the anchor chair. Get him his own show 🏆
The IRS is very touchy about Independent Contractors.
This anchorman will be fall guy.
If msnbc is wrong, nothing happen to Trump and his family and his associates, you will be laughing stock.
Well of course, MSNBC rating will be in the gutter
@Jin Lee Its on tape, on document and been admitted. What are you missing?
I also heard they LOVE being ignored and lied to – love it!!!!!!!!
@vlenhoff we do KNOW !! the Mueller report !!
@mj333 Exactly. We know 100% of the Obstruction. We know multiple Trump associates we’re charged. We also know Trump used his presidential pardoning powers on every single one ( for them staying quite ).
I highly recommend ” Where Law Ends’ ” by Andrew Weissman and the bipartisan Intelligence Report volume 5.
Then there is Trump’s behavior – which includes repeating Russian misinformation and the 2016 Election with the DNC server attack.
It’s no wonder Don the Con was so desperate to stay in the White House!
but Chumpers somehow cannot see this.
he also owes a half a billion dollars (to god only knows who) that he can’t pay back
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Some of us knew soon as he tested waters stating that he could get away with killing someone on the street of NY. He tested and tested… NOW IT’S FINALES TIME!!!
@juan vicks I prefer “MAGATS’.
Yea but we all knew that didn’t we???
Anyone that has stood before a judge knows that ignorance of the law is not a defense! 🤨 TFB 🤑
@D.A. Oh sounds like a smart move if that’s even true. We’re relying on the word of a liar who is known to lie under oath. You can’t believe anything these people say. They will say whatever they need to benefit themselves. All these people pointing the finger a trump are probably criminals themselves. Just look at Avenatti. A crook the whole time he was calling Trump a crook.
@Kevin C Michael Cohen was Trump’s fixer for over a decade and knows where a lot of bodies are buried, as they say. NY Prosecutors have interviewed him EIGHT (8) TIMES in building their cases against Trump. The walls are closing in. Enjoy the Trump Trials!
@D.A. Oh he’s a liar. Can’t believe anything he says. Would you believe him if he was testifying for Trump? I think not.
@D.A. Oh you mean they coerced and then rehearsed with him 8 times? Don’t get your hopes up. This will be like the 5th time they have tried to get Trump on some bogus charges.
@D.A. Oh I guess we just have to accept that there are a lot of people out there with so much hate they would accept tyrannical government in exchange for punishing the orange man.
It’s seems to me that the Trump family got rich by ripping people off.
Now you’re getting it
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
@stephen ashton I didn’t like when he dumped IVANA
so yeah, 40 yrs of this con…
@David Kobza go to your own thread, we’re busy here
@Sheez Nutz Biden’s 2020 tax returns. reported a federal adjusted gross income of $607,336 and owed $157,414 in federal income tax. He also reported an adjusted gross income of roughly $11 million in 2017 and $4.6 million in 2018. The bulk of that number comes from a multi-book deal with Flatiron Books valued at $8 million per Publishers Weekly, but he also earned a sizable income from speaking engagements. Biden’s basic speaking fee was $100,000, but it ranged from $40,000 to $190,000. He earned $540,000 as a professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Penn. All this information is public knowledge.
@Raffinee_37 Don’t forget his late brother Fred’s two children! I am sure you remember his niece Mary Trump who had all of the boxes of tax info she gave to Suzana Craig @ the NYTs. She had all those documents since 2000 b/c she and her brother had to take legal action when Don the Con cheated them out of the majority of their inheritance from their late Father Fred Jr’s % of Fred Trump Sr. estate.
They put Wesley Snipes in Jail for 5 years for not being on top of his taxes. So these guys should be no different
@Shirley Porter Ah, full circle. Johnny Carson monologue from September 7th, 1989:
“Donald Trump in the news, starting a new game show, Trump Card . . . Apparently it’s a lot like Wheel of Fortune but instead of Vanna White, Leona Helmsley comes out and flips a homeless person into the street.”
@Brian Daniels Why didn’t Harvey Weinstein, Jeff Epstein or Bill Cosby go down years ago for their reported misdeeds? Rich, famous and/or powerful people have ways of keeping the law at arm’s length.
Leslie Snipes only did two years in prison December 2010 to November 2013
@Brian Daniels no, Trump was intentional in paying his people under the table with cars, apartments, etc. He kept their regular obvious income low for many many years because he was compensating them this way. It was most definitely a way to dodge paying taxes. That 1.7 million is 34 years of a regular person”s income. They had to pay taxes for those 34 years. By all or any of these people not paying taxes, it gives the rest of us a higher tax load to carry and pay.
good point
The average working stiff is waiting for “ perks” like health insurance,fair wages or a pension.👍🇺🇸
@Beni Flores Oh ok, I guess you support high has prices, open borders, inflation, more.crime and less jobs.
You.might as well be a democrat! Lol
@Coldwynn Frost
Didn’t Tucker Carlson’s pool boy steal that laptop?
Only the average non-Republican working stiff is waiting for health insurance, because all of the Republicans and the Retrumplicans I’m sure have signed up for the Trump healthcare plan, if not it’s coming out in two weeks!
Trump made sure his kids and cronies got millions of dollars while offering up 600 bucks to people during a pandemic.
Stand together with your brothers and sisters and DEMAND BETTER…don’t ‘wait’
Of all people, McDonalds workers did this and got their demanded wage.
People have more power than they think.
Double dipping pay checks and contract fees, Employee of a dozen companies
Isn’t this N.Y. mafia business 101. As an ex drug dealer, I may not understand a lot of the terms, but the business model I recognize.
And i bet all my cash, that you were more honorable than all these Trumf kids and lackeys!
HILARIOUS COMMENT
Ur absolutely right Mafia 101
@Elaine Daprano And Trump has worked closely with both.
Can’t wait for Trump’s QAnon followers to eventually realize how closely their Dear Leader was aligned with not only Jeff Epstein, but also human traffickers in Russian organized crime. Congress released a full report on this last year, but right-wingers somehow failed to read it.
@Joe Whereismycuecard more tears please, delicious!
They are so stupid they admitted everything they did!!! 😜🤣🧐
But nothing will happen to Donald.
The Trump Family Circus is winding down 🤡 🎪
The funny part is just beginning 🤣
And that coming from family. Mary knows them better than any of us.
Yeah she has a great history, why not believe her. 🤣
She is probably right, but she has no way of knowing this.
Family are the ones that turn the quickest. Mary can F off.
You Trump bootlickers are an embarrassment.
@Kille Like being an insider with a degree in psychology isn’t enough.
Its a cook out when the kids get indicted. Its a block party when orange man has a jump suit
@doeman35 You speak the truth. Sad!
@TheDiamond2009 It’s not partisan when someone (anyone) breaks the law. This is flat out tax evasion. Why are you defending a crook? Are you a crook? Makes sense if you are.
Don’t forget the party hats!
How many times y’all going to say this? You will forever be online looking like a
Idiots lol
@TheDiamond2009 delicious!!! more tears please.
It’s not fair just Papa goes to Prison he needs Company there,He will be lonely.
So, the family will join in. Birds of a feather flocks together.
Maybe they could share a cell with Michael Avenatti.
This trump organization was doing dirty business for many years – well known -Why nobody care to do something and let him get away – the organization is not to be the only one to blame -_who else was getting GIfTS to look the other way?? The I RS peoples ? Who ??
Anybody who has two sets of books KNOWS what they are doing is ILLEGAL!
Only according to MSNBS, Elaine.
@Stephen Kershaw No need to fall out of your chair laughing.Take it easy there.Wasnt trying to be a comic just asking a question which I take was a NO?Have you ever visited the states?
@M K all these people in power Dems and republicans are corrupt. Get a FFFen grip you really think this administration is on the up and up. This infrastructure bill is one of the biggest scam’s in the history of the world. It’s a FFFen green deal that nobody can prove will do anything for this planet … Are you thinking of trump when you fill up your car. Or him cutting off are energy supply then paying for one for Russia. Go replay Joe’s whisper speech. If you want something to do.
@Lisa Riggs prayers back to you.❤❤
I hope your day is wonderful as well!
@Deborah Bozin ^^^That guy right there is happy with it.
When will Donnie start denying the existence of his kids? When will the kids start claiming they don’t know who each other are? Watch this space .
Playing dumb, as opposed to normally being so, in the standard Trump style, is not going to keep Ivanka from being charged, if not ideally jailed.
“Lock her Up! LOCK HER UP”
Bet the Trumps aren’t chanting along now.
🙂
