PEOPLE!! I TOLD YOU *2 WEEKS AGO* THAT THE COURT *VOIDED* TRUMP’S CLAIMED IRS IMMUNITY!!!
by Anne P. Mitchell, Esq. – attorney, law professor emeritus, and author of Federal law
I’m sorry if I sound a little frustrated but, well, I am. Last night, after I announced that Blanche had issued a written statement disclaiming the anti-weaponization fund, masses of people started asking “But what about his immunity from IRS audit and investigation?”
I wrote and told you *2 weeks ago*, when the court order in that case came out, that *it was dead*. (Notes from the Front members, I am including both that order *and* the purported IRS immunity “agreement” so that you can see them together side-by-side.)
Now, of course, if you aren’t subscribed to my legal updates so that you get them all directly in your inbox, then you are at the mercy of the platform’s algorithm, so you may not have seen it.

Anyway Court order was issued on July 13 and I wrote it up that very same day.
But for those of you who missed it:
THE IRS IMMUNITY IS MOOT, VOID, DEAD, KAPUT!
Why?
First, because it *directly* violates Federal law. And you can’t “agree” to something that violates the law. Such “agreements” are void.
Second, it’s not even an agreement, it was a decree issued by Todd Blanche! (Notes from the Front members, you will see that in the included documents.)
(NOTE: THIS is the thing over which he should be refused confirmation! CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES – and CALL TILLIS AND CRONYN – and tell them to *not* confirm Blanche because while he put in writing that the anti-weaponization fund was not moving forward, he *unilaterally* tried to protect Trump from the IRS auditing his tax records!)
Third, the amnesty from IRS audits *relies* on the purported “settlement agreement”, which the Court *invalidated* in the Court’s July 13th ruling.
Fourth, the Court *explicitly* *prohibits* them from attempting to rely on the invalidated settlement.
This is, by the way, the ruling in which Blanche and the other attorneys are *referred for disciplinary action* the state bars, *and* in which the Judge found that Trump and Blanche had *acted in bad faith* to file a *collusive* lawsuit!
I URGE *everyone* to read the Court order (again, included for Notes from the Front members) – it’s a beautiful spanking, *and* it’s clear enough that even someone not familiar with the legal lingo (which by now many of you following me are) will understand this:
THE IMMUNITY FROM IRS AUDITS IS *DEAD*
(Actually it was never alive – it was *never* going to be legally viable – but on July 13th the Court made that clear.)
Notes from the Front members: the July 13th Court order shredding the settlement and IRS amnesty, along with the document trying – but *failing* – to give Trump that amnesty, are in your inbox now.

P.S. If you actually read all the way to the bottom please leave a sentence in a comment that includes the word “kaput”. It will show me that my efforts aren’t in vain and that people actually *do* read these things, and it will drive those who just skim crazy wondering just why everyone is talking about something being kaput! ;~)
