A US judge has voided a legal agreement between President Donald Trump and federal agencies that granted him immunity from tax audits and allowed his administration to create a since-abandoned $1.8bn (£1.3bn) “anti-weaponisation” fund.
The fund, intended to compensate individuals claiming they were unfairly targeted by the government, was unveiled in May in exchange for Trump dropping his personal $10bn lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
But on Monday, US District Judge Kathleen Williams said the suit was filed for an improper purpose.
She also referred a Trump lawyer to state authorities to determine whether ethics rules were violated and disciplinary action required.
Round 1 goes to the people this is excellent.
Next, void his ‘immunity to anything he does while president’.
Is this where we all pretend we’re hillbillies and are shocked? He raped kids. He trafficked kids. He committed felonies he was never punished for. He did… A thousand other things. But yeah, he also tried to steal 1.8 minion dollars from taxpayers like me.
Now we all know, move along. No consequences for the RICH PEOPLE. That’s how it is in America, everyone.
