LOL OMG broad day light THEFT of US treasury.
You mean to suggest Scott Bessent and Pam Bondi won't treat this lawsuit fairly and impartially? How dare you!
All the presidents combined for the last century have only amassed $40 million in wealth while in office despite the whining and complaining by the right about the Clintons or Obama. All of them, combined, a century’s worth…$40 million
Trump has stuffed his pockets with $3 billion in since he got elected. In one year.
You mean the tax returns he was supposed to voluntarily release, himself?
I'll never forgive the assholes that voted this piece of shit into office again. I feel dumber every time I read this childish bullshit, and sad for humanity seeing the homuculi that applaud stupidity.

You shouldn't. These are the new Nazis. Sociopaths completely without respect for anything.
They will end up settling out of court for half that and he'll laugh all the way to the bank. Another grift executed.
Based on what little I know of this, myself only being versed in Bird Law, doesn't the IRS enjoy sovereign immunity as a governmental entity? They can just declare that they do not agree to being sued.
Yeah, but they're an executive agency, so Trump can just fire anyone who says no, until they get to someone who will agree to let the lawsuit proceed.
Don't try to make sense, you'll scare them!
What a sniveling cunt.
Definition of chode
Trump: I would like to sue the Office of the President of the USA for $10 billion dollars.
Taxpayers: But, you are the President.
Trump: Oh great, I’ll settle with myself for $5 billion dollars. Send a check.
Taxpayers:

Americans: what a brilliant man.
Art of the deal.

He's stealing our money
OUR. FUCKING. MONEY.
obligatory: fuck izrael too
Yea but at least some poor person isn’t getting your hard-earned dollar to get treatment for something for free. /s
I feel the same about all of these headlines.
No matter how conservative you are, how can you support this? Its just nuts.
Theft
It's not only for $10b because his lawyer 'intepreted' "a hundred hundred gazillion bigly dollars" at an actual amount rather than trying to explain how numbers work.
I can’t believe it took this long for someone to realize they can just openly plunder and get away with it. Or that we sit around and let it happen.
Previously they didn't have half of Congress and the Supreme Court willing to rubber stamp everything up to and including outright treason.
That’s about 66-67 dollars per tax payer. Like I have money to give this fuck nugget.
Eat my ass you irredeemable cunt
Watch the fucking system eat itself alive
What a doofus. He could've asked for 10 billion and fifty dollars. Now he's going to be 50$ short some day.
He better be careful. Not even the Joker said he would go against the IRS in Batman.
That's because the joker never was in charge of the federal government.
That being said, I think joker as president would be a nice step up... he's chaotic as hell, but he hates indiscriminately, he explicitly will not work with nazi's (If I recall a crossover had him meet red skull, who he opposed the second he realized he was a real nazi).
"You see, I'm demanding maybe the most anyone has ever demanded. They come up to me and tell me: sir, no one has ever demanded this much. I sued them for eleventyseven zillion dollars"
What damages? How about we dig into all the fraud on avoiding paying taxes on all that money daddy gave him?
Nitpick: if it's criminal then it's tax evasion, not tax avoidance.
you gotta use the translator:
“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,” a Trump spokesperson said in a statement.
“The IRS employee exposed factual, damning 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 obviously released to millions of people,” a rational person should take from that statement.
Fuck this guy
More distraction from his kiddie diddlying/trafficking/protecting his handlers, I see. $10 BILLION LAW SUIT vs the IRS!!! How un-astonishingly absurd and "dead cat on table" of him
Let's sue him ourselves, for... everything‽, in the amount of $1 Trillion dollars! muwhahahahahaaa! That should make him ~~shit his pants~~ back down a little
Or just continue letting him do whatever he wants, because he's captured the "checks and balances" and proven the lack of consequences. That bitch is fucked, it's the puppet-handlers that need to walk the line (if they wanna keep the charade up). And they don't give a fuck, cause they've got the perfect patsy
He can threaten everything once again, but good luck taking that grift to the grave. Salting the earth motherfuckers won't have a habitable Mars to run to, cause they're too busy burning the shit behind them
Enjoy the yachts while you can! I'll enjoy my humanity, meanwhile
