WASHINGTON – A federal judge is giving former President Donald Trump time to challenge a Department of Justice order that said the IRS must surrender his income tax returns to Congress.

U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Columbia Trevor McFadden said that Trump and his lawyers have until Wednesday to issue a response.

Trevor Neil McFadden is a judge on the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. He was nominated to the court by President Donald Trump (R) on June 7, 2017, and confirmed by the U.S. Senate on October 30, 2017

1. From Fiona Hill, Yes, It Was a Coup Attempt

The judiciary: With the help of Republican lawmakers, Trump stacked federal courts with what he kept calling “his judges.” He successfully pushed through the appointments of three new Supreme Court justices ahead of the presidential election. He made his expectation clear that if the Supreme Court had to settle an election dispute, then “his justices” would tilt the verdict in his favor. Erdogan did the same in Turkey, purging the judiciary and installing loyalists who facilitated his rerun of the 2015 election and sentenced political opponents to long prison terms. Trump frequently called for investigations into his opponents and for courts and law enforcement to “lock them all up!”

3. If he wins, then none of us has to pay taxes, either. They're optional.

I'm serious.
