With Trump’s tax returns, leftists have a new conspiracy theory
By Andrea Widburg

Last week, the Supreme Court greenlighted the Manhattan District Attorney’s fishing expedition into Donald Trump’s tax returns for the past eight years. Trump, therefore, turned over a million pages of financial to the D.A. That’s good enough for the Trump Derangement Syndrome suffers to breathe new life into their Russia conspiracy theory.

Since 2019, when Robert Mueller admitted that Trump had not colluded with the Russians, Cyrus Vance, Jr., the Manhattan District Attorney has been trying to get Trump’s tax returns. The basis for this push was the vague claim that there was “possibly extensive and protracted criminal conduct at the Trump Organization.”

Of course, this isn’t how American law is supposed to work. Traditionally, the government first knows there’s a crime and then must prove it. What Vance’s office is doing is purely Soviet: They’ve got the man and now they want his taxes to prove a crime, any crime.

Still, Vance got a grand jury to demand Trump’s tax returns. As everyone knows, a prosecutor can get a grand jury to rubber-stamp anything he wants.

Used to be that prosecutors had to show probable cause to dig into a man's papers.

Now all they need to show is an (R) after his name.

Stinker & Widberg are kindred morons, indeed.
The Vance Inquiry has absolutely nothing, NOTHING, to do w/the
'Russia Conspiracy Theory', a fave neurosis of Trump's Posse.
Yet has everything to do w/likely tax fraud involving asset values
applied by Trump and his flunkies, to reduce the taxable base of
real estate sold by Trump over the past 30 years; a figure
conservatively estimated in the multi-tens of millions.
