Trump is apparently willing to drop his demand for $10 billion from the IRS, which wouldn’t pass the smell test in a court of law (unless the judge was Aileen Cannon), if the Treasury sets up a $1.7 Billion fund to compensate anyone who was “wrongfully” prosecuted during Biden’s term.
That means that all of the MAGA crowd that attacked and defaced the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, will get not only a pardon but a payoff for their efforts to overthrow the Constitution. Also, the friends and allies of Trump who collaborated to nullify the 2020 election will be rewarded.
President Donald Trump is expected to drop his $10 billion lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service in exchange for the creation of a $1.7 billion fund to compensate allies who claim they were wrongfully targeted by the Biden administration, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.
The commission overseeing the compensation fund would have the total authority to hand out approximately $1.7 billion in taxpayer funds to settle claims brought by anyone who alleges they were harmed by the Biden administration’s “weaponization” of the legal system, including the nearly 1,600 individuals charged in connection with the Jan. 6 Capitol attack as well as potentially entities associated with President Trump himself.
While the settlement is expected to be agreed upon in the coming days, sources caution that the final terms will not be set until they are officially announced. Judge orders Trump, DOJ to justify why president’s $10B IRS lawsuit should proceed
In addition to a public apology from the IRS, the compensation fund is believed to be the main condition for Trump to drop a series of legal actions he filed against the federal government, including the $10 billion lawsuit related to the 2019 leak of his tax returns as well as $230 million in legal claims related to the 2022 search of his Mar-a-Lago estate and the Russia collusion investigation he faced during his first term in office, sources familiar with the ongoing deliberations said.
The settlement terms are expected to prohibit Trump from directly receiving payments related to those three legal claims; however, entities associated with Trump are not explicitly barred from filing additional claims, sources said.
In response to a request for comment, a spokesperson for President Trump’s legal team told ABC News, “The IRS wrongly allowed a rogue, politically-motivated employee to leak private and confidential information about President Trump, his family, and the Trump Organization to the New York Times, ProPublica and other left-wing news outlets, which was then illegally released to millions of people. President Trump continues to hold those who wrong America and Americans accountable.”
A spokesperson for the Justice Department declined to comment when contacted by ABC News. Representatives for the IRS and the Treasury Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment

Countersue for frivolous prosecution. Sue Trump personally, not the Office of President. This has nothing to do with his official duties so he has no immunity. Sue him for a billion dollars plus damages.

Trump has deep deep pockets. He’s filed thousands of lawsuits in his lifetime. Most people can’t afford it.

How can people who were already found guilty be given monetary rewards by the government after the fact for having broken the law? And why should people who didn’t break the law be subjected to having their tax dollars go to paying criminals for what they did?
I think it’s too ass-backwards for courts to consider that to be justice, even today. We’ve got billionaires, too. Maybe they can pay to help groups like ACLU fight it.

Good question. Each of those that will be rewarded by Trump’s slush fund were investigated for their participation in a violent asssault on the seat of our government. They were indicted by a grand jury. They were given a fair trial and found guilty. Now Trump has pardoned them and will enrich them with our tax dollars.

If this is not proof of treason, I don’t know what is.

I’ve known a lot of homeless people who did not realize that the president didn’t give a hoot about folks like them. To him, the struggling poor don’t even deserve food stamps, yet they voted for him because they believed he would make them rich –which they thought because each Apprentice show was about raising money for charity. (Most didn’t know about his own fraudulent charity.)
So many indigent people just could not grasp that he doesn’t care about those who are less fortunate. They believed he was was independently wealthy and successful and they couldn’t comprehend that he’d had several bankruptcies but landed on his feet, because of his rich family and a system that’s rigged in favor of wealthy people like them. It must have been wonderful for him to have had financial security no matter what for so long.
I just heard a helicopter circling nearby and became paranoid, afraid that I’m about to be arrested for my financial failures, my personal beliefs concerning humanity, my political convictions regarding our freedoms and rights –and for speaking my mind about it all. It can be a real challenge these days for people like me to think of this place as, “America, home of the free and the brave.” But there IS always hope…
Blessings to ALL!
