The IRS Nailed Al Capone

So James Comey and Andrew McCabe both come under super duper top of the hill audits at the same time, what a coincidence.

So now Trump former Chief of Staff John Kelly has publicly stated that Trump wanted him to sic the IRS on Comey and McCabe, coincidence?

If Trump directed the IRS to go after political enemies, that is a crime, whether or not the IRS even did the audits, which it did.

Supposedly the IRS IG is investigating this and Kelly is a witness.

Will this be another crime that gets shit canned? If a Democratic president had done this it would be plastered all over the MSM 24/7.

No wonder Trump gets away with everything, no one gives a shit, the FBI would rather talk about the threat of China.

When will Wray be investigated for lying to Congress? No one gives a shit.

Michael Cohen goes on TV every day and claims that Trump could be indicted for tax fraud tomorrow, and he is willing to testify, but no one gives a shit.

Rant off.

who Trump had dinner with; Ye, Nick Fuentes, and Milo Yiannopoulos. Trump doesn't give a shit if we talk about that, he loves those people and the publicity.

3. Life is easier when you accept the fact that Trump is never going to be held accountable.

Or any of the GOP traitors in Congress, either. The DOJ is going to leave it up to the voters to make sure Trump never occupies the White House again, & to get rid of the riff-raff in Congress, too.

It's on us.

I guess the idea that there are still good people standing up to corruption is a fantasy.

The GOP isn’t going down, they are just getting more sneaky about corruption.

after church mom and dad would always take me to Moody's to but the Sunday paper and he had a wall of comic books and I was allowed to pick one. (they were either a nickel or a dime) Boy was I naive to pick Superman or Batman or one of the many other super heroes. It turns out it was all propaganda to make kids like me believe that someone gave a shit.
