Per the Times,
8 Years of Trump Tax Returns Are Subpoenaed by Manhattan D.A.
The pretext is an investigation of the Stormy Daniels payoffs.
My guess is that a criminal subpoena is harder to fight but secrecy rules also make it harder to leak without more dramatic consequences. But what do I know?
I just watched a video where the President said Mueller looked at these. If Mueller didn't find anything illegal, then why would the New York AG?
Seems to me this is just more BS from the dems.

Jack, well that decision is outrageous.
Basically they grant the right to use Eminent Domain for natural gas lines, just not for natural gas derived via Fracking, right? Okey Doke. That is pure left wing politics.
Extended, I guess that means the next court could deny Electricity Transmission Lines if the electricity they carry come from coal, right? Conversely, could they not grant preferential fast track consent for lines carrying, say, solar or wind electricity?
Think of every other "public need" applications of Eminent Domain and overlay their granting based on political favors of the day?
How in the world did we get to this point? What do they teach lawyers these days?

Reading TM's post--the first I'd learned of the subpoenas--was a gut punch. Is there no end to this?
And if that is how I feel, how does he just not write a nice letter of resignation , leave it on the desk in the Oval Office, walk out the door, and let Mikey do it?

anonamom,
I don't like how I am coming to hate them, either. That is why I don't answer the creeps I see on Twitter, and why I copy the President's tweets here as much as I can so that you guys don't have to see the replies.
Pence couldn't do it, though. He's a good and moral man, but he has been in politics all his life and doesn't know how to fight like Trump. Also, if Trump were to resign, they would go after him and his kids as a "lesson to us all."
Brad Parscale seems confident. I follow what he says. I think people are going to be indicted soon, too.
If you are not too tired, watch the rally tonight. I bet he has tons to say about what's been going on!
Posted by: MissMarple2 | September 16, 2019 at 06:41 PM
How does an investigation of one payment (completely legal on the face of it) get a subpoena for 8 years of returns. Does a judge have to sign off on it? And is there no appeal or recourse? It’s such an obvious fishing expedition.
Posted by: jimmyk | September 16, 2019 at 06:44 PM
I've come to hate the left like I hate roaches, rats, and, I'll throw in termites, too, simply because of the way those insects breed, explode, and destroy.
Evidently the left, with all of its media, celebrities, university partners, and moronic, gullible voters consider this a fight to the death of our way of life.
I. Hate. Them.

If the military was so low on ammo when Trump took office is like to know where all the billions of rounds went that were ordered during 404’s term. 5.56 doubled, sometimes close to tripled in price when production was limited. I imagine the Depts of Ed and Energy have quite the stockpile.

Until my doctor decided I needed a lumbar puncture and it went South. To confirm the Pressure Headaches diag.
I ended up at the University of Michigan Hospital last night and had a blood patch to fix the leak that was causing CSF Headaches. Worst pain I have ever had.
Tomorrow, back to work rocking out again. I hope!
