4 hours agoCenter

President Trump says the US is not satisfied yet on Iran deal, “but we will be.” Speaking at a White House cabinet meeting, Trump added that Iran wants to make a deal and are "negotiating on fumes." Earlier Wednesday, the US denied an Iranian state television report on a draft interim peace deal that said maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz could return to normal within a month of it coming into effect. “This report from Iranian controlled media is not true and the MOU they ‘released’ is a complete fabrication,” the White House said in a social media post on Wednesday. “Nobody should believe what Iranian state media is putting out.” (Source: Bloomberg)

Trump could be liable for 'creative crimes' due to his IRS deal: law professor

Trump could be liable for 'creative crimes' due to his IRS deal: law professor

A controversial agreement granting Donald Trump immunity from IRS audits may ultimately prove worthless, according to University of Baltimore School of Law Professor Kim Wehle, who argues in a new column that it may not stand up to legal scrutiny under what are called "creative crimes."As part of a settlement with Trump over a leaked tax return lawsuit, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche signed off on an addendum granting the president sweeping tax protections. The IRS agreed to drop all pending audits of Trump — potentially saving him an estimated $100 million in liability — and the one-page document declared the U.S. government is "forever barred and precluded" from examining or prosecuting Trump, his sons, and the Trump Organization's tax filings.Writing for The Hill, Wehle's core argument is simple: Trump had no legal authority to grant himself this immunity in the first place. "The whole thing is bogus, so any attempt to use it as a valid legal defense is bogus, too," she wrote.Wehle pointed to Supreme Court precedent suggesting future courts may be willing to invalidate the deal. In July 2024, the Court granted Trump criminal immunity for official acts but explicitly stated that former presidents can still be prosecuted for crimes involving unofficial acts — a category that could theoretically include actions taken to minimize personal tax liability.While "Trump is operating as if he is above the law, there is room for future courts to find liability for 'creative crimes' he commits while in the White House," she elaborated.Even during Trump's first term, when he had a "friendly majority" on the Supreme Court, the justices refused to shield his personal accounting firm from turning over tax returns to congressional committees, the law professor wrote, noting that in 2022 the Court refused to block disclosure of Trump's tax returns and financial records to the House Ways and Means Committee.The critical question, according to Wehle, is not whether Trump currently possesses the constitutional authority to grant himself immunity — he doesn't she maintained — but whether future voters will elect an administration willing to challenge the addendum.If that happens, a future DOJ could argue that the agreement is legally void because Trump lacked authority to execute it. "The government would argue that the addendum should be given no weight because Trump had no legal authority to grant himself such immunity in the first place," Wehle explained.Trump's defense team would inevitably seek to invoke the addendum as a legal shield, but that defense would rest on a fundamentally flawed legal foundation. The deal represents Trump attempting to immunize himself unilaterally — an act that legal scholars argue exceeds presidential authority and could be dismantled by future courts or administrations, Wehle suggested.

Trump ally's 'freak' slur earns epic Epstein putdown from Dem star

Republicans have indicated they intend to portray Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico as a "freak," but he pushed back strongly against his GOP rival in Texas, Ken Paxton.The Donald Trump-endorsed Texas attorney general Paxton slurred the state legislator as "Tala-freako" in his victory speech after beating Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) in a closely watched GOP runoff election.Talarico leveled an attack of his own after Paxton and other Republicans smeared him in thinly veiled homophobic language."If Ken Paxton is worried about freaks, he should stop giving Epstein-style sweetheart deals to pedophiles," Talarico told CBS News. This is the guy who just released Adam Hoffman from jail, an admitted child rapist, after one of Ken Paxton's wealthy lawyer friends got involved in the case. Ken Paxton even kept him off the sex offender registry."Paxton’s office took over the case about three years ago after the locally elected district attorney recused himself, and Hoffman was released from jail this week after serving just under half of a 60-day sentence handed down as part of a plea agreement last month.The 49-year-old Hoffman, a former attorney in Waco, pleaded guilty to reduced charges of indecent assault and displaying harmful materials to a minor, both Class A misdemeanors punishable by up to a year in jail, as part of an agreement offered by Paxton's office after his trial on first-degree sexual abuse of a young child charges ended in June 2025 in a mistrial.Hoffman had been facing life without parole until Paxton's office reduced the charges in exchange for his guilty pleas, despite a friend of the defendant's son testifying that Hoffman had sexually assaulted him repeatedly over a three-year period starting when the boy was in third grade. - YouTube www.youtube.com
