A federal judge in Miami ruled Friday to reopen President Donald Trump's $10 billion lawsuit with the IRS and demanded the administration respond to allegations the suit was "premised on deception."

The ruling came after a bipartisan group of 35 former federal judges asked Judge Kathleen M. Williams to investigate the circumstances of Trump's questionable settlement with his own government, which led to the creation of a $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" fund.

The group of judges noted in their request that "although there is no settlement of record in this matter, public documents and announcements indicate that the dismissal of this case was premised on a purported settlement between the Parties," the filing reads.

The judges also made "grievous allegations" that Trump "voluntarily dismissed this litigation solely to avoid judicial scrutiny of a lawsuit that 'was collusive from the start' and was only filed to provide the imprimatur of legality for an unlawful settlement," Williams wrote.

Williams gave Trump a June 12 deadline to respond.

Separately on Friday, a federal judge in Virginia ruled to temporarily halt the creation of the slush fund, which the Trump administration has said could go toward paying those convicted of taking part in his failed coup on Jan 6th, 2021.

Friendly reminder that this 1.8 billion number they keep talking about, and the 1.776 billion they don't, is based entirely on MAGA's word. There's nothing about either amount in the actual documentation for the fund, or any stated amount at all. It's a fucking blank check.
This fund lets Trump take any amount of money he wants out of the US treasury, to be used however he wants, with no records or oversight on any of it.

SCOTUS will sort this shit out and get Trump his unlimited slush fund for political allies and his legal immunity for all crimes past and future for him and his family and businesses.

as the well-known and well beloved POTUS, "Jacques Abbadie once said,


"You can fool some of the people some of the time, you can fool some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all the people all of the time,”

I "The one fool sees itself" will add this addendum to this well-known phrase: "but you can fool most of the people most of the time".

Given trump and the republicans have already ignored SCOTUS rulings, I look forward to that precedent being used against them.

If you aren't complaining about Trump trying to line his pockets with $10 billion in taxpayer money then you're part of the problem.

Trump/the GOP haven't ignored SCOTUS rulings (I mean they have but not in a telling the court to go fuck itself way). They've ignored lower court rulings and then had SCOTUS dismantle any inquiries into whether or not that was legal after the fact. Totally different.
