Triggered - Donald Trump Jr - The New York DA's Witch Hunt Continues - My Thoughts

The DA and AG of the State of New York have charged the Trump Organization's CFO with tax evasion and conspiracy to commit tax evasion. Is this a political witch hunt or is this an abuse of power by government officials run amok? How is this any different than what Vladimir Putin does to his political enemies? How does this compare to what the mullahs in Iran do to their enemies? What is the difference between Putin and Donald Trump? What does this have to do with the Mueller investigation? How could this be anything other than a political persecution? What are the odds of this happening to Trump? Is this really a witch hunt, or is it a political ploy by the government to get rid of Donald Trump and his business empire in order to protect their political enemies from the press and the public? What will the media have to say about this, and why is this a bad thing? I'll tell you what, it's not a witchhunt, and it's NOT a political smear campaign. And I'll give you the numbers to back it up! If you don't like it, you're not going to like this, you won't like the results. I promise you won t like it! I'm not here to make it, I'm here to break it down and explain why this is a scam, and I'll show you why it's a scam! and why you should be mad at the media, not mad at it and what it is not a political corruption, and how it's no different than Vladimir Putin did it, and what we should do to our enemies in the same thing in the past, and we should all be mad about it, not like it. and how they should do it in the future. And why it would have been different than it would be different than this, not the way Putin does it in a few years ago, not in Iran, not Iran, and Iran does it like this in a couple of years, and much more. Let me know what you think about it. I'll be back with my thoughts on this in the next episode of the latest episode of Conspiracy Theories. Tweet me . if you agree or disagree with it? Timestamps: 1. 2. What do you think? 3. What are your thoughts? 4. Do you agree with the facts? 5. What would you like to see?

00:00:00.000 Well, guys, it's a sad day for America.

00:00:03.000 The District Attorney and the Attorney General of the State of New York indicted the Trump Organization's longtime accountant, 48 years, on charges essentially amounting to fringe benefits, you know, like a corporate car.

00:00:20.000 He got a corporate car. After 48 years of service, he got a corporate car, didn't pay tax on it.

00:00:24.000 Because that never happens in corporate America, right?

00:00:27.000 Definitely not a witch hunt, guys, right?

00:00:30.000 This is what they got. They're able to tie in the Trump Organization because he's the CFO, right?

00:00:34.000 So they try to do that for the flowery headlines because this is what they've been promising you, right?

00:00:39.000 The Attorney General of the state of New York campaigned on it before she had any evidence because it wasn't like she worked in the offices.

00:00:46.000 I'm gonna take down Donald Trump. 1.00

00:00:48.000 I'm gonna be a real pain in his ass in her words. 1.00

00:00:51.000 She's gonna know my name. 1.00

00:00:54.000 No consequence. How is this anything but a political persecution?

00:01:00.000 How is this anything other than a government abuse of power?

00:01:05.000 Let's break it down for you.

00:01:06.000 They've been doing this for about five years.

00:01:10.000 Hundreds of witnesses, presumably.

00:01:14.000 Countless hours of grand jury testimony.

00:01:18.000 Three million documents reviewed by the AG and the DA. Three million documents.

00:01:27.000 What they've got someone on is he didn't pay taxes on fringe benefits.

00:01:31.000 Let's break it down a little bit further because they've spent a lot of time trying to make this thing look really long and really scary and really powerful because that's what they do, right?

00:01:39.000 They're manipulating the facts then because they know they have a mainstream media that will run with it rampantly.

00:01:46.000 But funny enough, I'm watching commentators on CNN saying, man, this is what they got.

00:01:51.000 Kind of small potatoes, but that's not going to stop them, because this is what they do to their political enemies.

00:01:56.000 Again, five years, three million documents, hundreds of witnesses, presumably, countless hours of grand jury testimony, and they got the CFO on not paying taxes on fringe benefits.

00:02:07.000 I'll break down the math for you.

00:02:09.000 They say since 2005, I believe, about 16 years, He didn't pay taxes on $1.7 million worth of these fringe benefits.

00:02:21.000 By the way, half of that number was because my father, after almost 50 years of employment, paid for his grandkids' private school in New York City.

00:02:30.000 My dad did that because he's a good guy.

00:02:32.000 Takes care of his employees. Okay?

00:02:34.000 It was the nice thing to do.

00:02:36.000 The IRS has told us, and people who've worked in the IRS told us, that's not even taxable.

00:02:41.000 You're allowed to do that for education.

00:02:43.000 So, let's presume the 1.7 number probably goes to about half of that.

00:02:47.000 But let's just play with the full number so we really understand what we're talking about here.

00:02:51.000 Given what they've promised you for years, right?

00:02:53.000 They're taking them down!

00:02:55.000 They're gonna get Trump!

00:02:57.000 1.7 million dollars over 16 years.

00:03:01.000 Okay? What does that break out to?

00:03:05.000 What do you think? Not much.

00:03:08.000 1.7 over 16 years?

00:03:11.000 Not much. But guess what?

00:03:12.000 It's not 1.7 because it's 1.7 in income.

00:03:15.000 So let's be clear.

00:03:16.000 The New York State portion of that 1.7 in income is 8%.

00:03:21.000 That's what was avoided in taxes.

00:03:25.000 8% of that number, right?

00:03:28.000 They won't talk about that, but let's talk about the details.

00:03:30.000 That's $136,000 over 16 years.

00:03:38.000 Less than 10 grand a year, folks.

00:03:40.000 That's what this is about.

00:03:42.000 Less than 10 grand a year.

00:03:44.000 Now, if you take the schools and you take that out of it, because our IRS people tell us it's totally legit and totally fine, it's less than 5 grand a year.

00:03:54.000 You're telling me this isn't a political persecution?

00:03:56.000 You're saying this isn't abuse of power by government officials run amok?

00:04:02.000 And then just having a field day because they can get away with it?

00:04:05.000 How is this any different than what Vladimir Putin does?

00:04:11.000 Seriously, ask that question.

00:04:13.000 How is this any different?

00:04:15.000 He jails his political opponents.

00:04:17.000 A few years ago, it would have been different, right? 0.97

00:04:18.000 A few years ago, they just slip him a radioactive pill or shot, and they die.

00:04:23.000 Now he just sticks them in jail.

00:04:24.000 Just ask Novotny. He's sitting in jail.

00:04:27.000 He's the leader of the opposition party.

00:04:29.000 What were the charges? Who knows?

00:04:31.000 No one cares. Our media should be more outraged about that, but I guess because of the love fest of Putin now with Biden, they probably let it pass.

00:04:38.000 If it was under Trump, they'd go crazy.

00:04:41.000 How is this any different?

00:04:42.000 How is this any different than what the mullahs in Iran do to their political enemies?

00:04:49.000 To make it and take it a little bit further, the IRS in 230 years, we were not able to find one case where they prosecuted fringe benefits criminally.

00:05:03.000 Do you think the DA pays taxes on the parking pass that he gets to park downtown in New York?

00:05:09.000 That's like, you know, 30 to 50 bucks a day.

00:05:12.000 You think he does that or you think it's just sort of part of the job?

00:05:15.000 That's what we're talking about here, folks.

00:05:18.000 The DA's office has never prosecuted a claim like this on fringe benefits.

00:05:21.000 Frankly, Christie's Auction House Helped its clients avoid $189 million in taxes.

00:05:31.000 $189 million! Not five grand over 16 years, $189 million!

00:05:36.000 And they did a deferred prosecution where they paid a fine.

00:05:40.000 And yet, if you read this, it's the biggest Criminal malfeasance ever.

00:05:45.000 Because it's all optics and it's all nonsense.

00:05:48.000 Because they promised you these indictments.

00:05:50.000 Rather than just saying, you know what?

00:05:52.000 Maybe there's a chance that Donald Trump is just really good at building buildings and managing them.

00:05:56.000 Maybe he's really good at building golf courses and running them.

00:06:00.000 Maybe he's really good at building hotels.

00:06:02.000 God knows we got the accolades.

00:06:04.000 Maybe he just runs a business.

00:06:06.000 But it doesn't matter in 2021.

00:06:08.000 In 2021, you're allowed to prosecute your political enemies.

00:06:13.000 Right? That's what you do.

00:06:14.000 It's okay. Especially if you're a Democrat.

00:06:16.000 Now, if you're a Republican that's doing this to a Democrat, they'd lose their minds.

00:06:20.000 Compare this to the stuff that we know about Hunter Biden.

00:06:23.000 You think it's the same? You think it's even close?

00:06:26.000 Yet they won't even look at that.

00:06:28.000 They won't even touch it.

00:06:30.000 But they go after a 75-year-old guy who's worked somewhere for 48 years, done a great job just to try to hurt Donald Trump.

00:06:39.000 Maybe we can flip him.

00:06:41.000 Guys, the only problem with that is there has to be something to flip on.

00:06:45.000 Right? What if there's nothing to flip on because you ran a great business?

00:06:50.000 You think that in those three million documents, five years, the DA, the Attorney General, as well as teams of specialists they brought in costing, again, New York millions, you think maybe those guys would have found something beyond getting someone to flip.

00:07:07.000 Because you can't just say something, you have to actually back it up.

00:07:11.000 Maybe there's nothing to flip because I keep hearing, oh, he's going to cooperate!

00:07:14.000 He's going to cooperate now!

00:07:18.000 What's there to cooperate with?

00:07:19.000 We run a great business.

00:07:21.000 We run a clean company.

00:07:23.000 No one questioned that prior to us getting into politics.

00:07:25.000 But again, guys, definitely not a political persecution, right?

00:07:29.000 We've heard this stuff before, right?

00:07:31.000 This is what? Iteration 7, 8, 9, 10 of the Mueller hoax?

00:07:36.000 Remember, it was Mueller, Mueller, Mueller.

00:07:38.000 It was Russia, Russia, Russia. 0.87

00:07:40.000 I've gone through it. Don Jr.

00:07:43.000 committed treason. Don Jr.

00:07:45.000 perjured himself. None of it happened, right?

00:07:49.000 None of it happened. They say, oh, Donald Trump's just, he's really good at escaping things.

00:07:53.000 Maybe that's because he didn't do anything wrong, right?

00:07:56.000 Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, right?

00:07:58.000 That was for talking about maybe canceling an aid package.

00:08:02.000 Well, Joe Biden canceled an aid package to Ukraine while he's dealing with Putin.

00:08:06.000 Hmm, nothing. No commentary.

00:08:08.000 They don't even make the analogy.

00:08:09.000 Say, wow, I thought presidents got impeached for that kind of stuff.

00:08:13.000 So again, after everything they've promised you, you think this is what they were intending?

00:08:19.000 You think that the DA's office, who's been leaking all of this stuff selectively, or the AG's office leaking this stuff selectively because we hear about it from reporters before our own lawyers ever even hear it?

00:08:29.000 You think that this is what they expected or were hoping for?

00:08:33.000 I'm watching people on CNN say, man, if this is what they've got, it's small potatoes.

00:08:38.000 Because of course it is.

00:08:40.000 It's not going to stop the optic of it.

00:08:41.000 I get that. That's the game they've been playing forever.

00:08:43.000 They could get away with that. You think that if this was the case that they were hoping, this was going to finally take down Donald Trump, you think they'd drop it at 3 o'clock on an afternoon on Thursday going into the 4th of July weekend?

00:08:57.000 No, guys. That's when all the people that they're playing to, all the rich Manhattan-like liberals that are in their cars going onto the Hamptons, they won't even see this stuff because if they saw what was really happening, maybe even those partisan leftists would be like, man, this sounds a lot like a political persecution.

00:09:14.000 This sounds a lot like what Putin does to his enemies.

00:09:17.000 And they'd be right. And that's why it's dropping.

00:09:21.000 Late in the week, late in the day on a Thursday, when the city is empty, I'm looking out my window, I don't even see cars in the city.

00:09:26.000 Everyone's gone. You think that if they had something real that was going to take down Trump, all the things they promised after this many years and millions of dollars, you think they're doing that when they don't get the press bang for it?

00:09:40.000 No, they're doing it because they know it's a joke.

00:09:42.000 I'm watching liberal commentators say it's a joke, okay?

00:09:46.000 And when a liberal commentator who hates Donald Trump's guts is saying, man, I hope there's more than this, you know they have a problem, but they had to do something.

00:09:54.000 They were forced because they told the American public for so long there was definitely something.

00:09:58.000 They told them they were going to take down Trump, right?

00:10:04.000 Our justice system is dead.

00:10:08.000 The American way of life is going to be dead if this keeps going like this because it's sick. 0.95

00:10:12.000 It's sick. Okay? 0.64

00:10:14.000 They're not focused on crime rates in New York that are skyrocketing going through the roof.

00:10:18.000 No. They had all their people focused on this for years.

00:10:22.000 Right? Not murderers.

00:10:23.000 Not rapists. Hell, they're letting some of those people just go. 0.99

00:10:26.000 Right? They decided not to prosecute hundreds of people that looted and rioted in New York over the last year.

00:10:32.000 They're not even going to get a slap on the wrist.

00:10:34.000 They're just letting them go. Whether it's because they're leftist, you know, partisan hacks or crazy, or maybe it's because they were too busy focused on this kind of nonsense. 0.99

00:10:44.000 You know, they didn't spend this kind of time on, you know, Purdue Pharma creating opioids and killing millions of Americans. 0.73

00:10:51.000 But we're going to get Donald Trump because we don't like what he says and we view him as a threat to the Democrat Party because he actually got things done.

00:11:00.000 Right? He did things...

00:11:02.000 For the African-American community, for the Hispanic community, things that Democrats talk about but don't actually do.

00:11:07.000 You know, they show up every four years, you know, with posters, vote for me, but don't actually do anything.

00:11:12.000 You know, maybe they saw that and they saw that as a threat.

00:11:14.000 They realized that so many of the other mealy-mouthed Republicans, they would much rather run against them because they'll fold under pressure.

00:11:21.000 They won't fight when they need to.

00:11:24.000 So let's go after Trump.

00:11:25.000 Let's hold this over his head.

00:11:27.000 You think this is what they intended?

00:11:28.000 You think this is, honestly, even the most ardent leftist in New York City?

00:11:33.000 You think this is what they were hoping for?

00:11:35.000 No, but this will be the excuse to drag it out, millions more dollars, countless hours wasted, missing actual crime going on in New York so they can try to hurt a 75-year-old guy so that he flips on Trump, but there's nothing to flip on.

00:11:50.000 But maybe they're just hoping that he lies about Trump at this point.

00:11:54.000 I imagine they wouldn't care.

00:11:55.000 They'd take that as a win in a second. 0.65

00:11:56.000 Because if you've been watching, you know that's probably right.

00:12:00.000 Right? They'd take that out.

00:12:01.000 Just say something. The problem with that is, you need actual evidence.

00:12:05.000 Okay? Even in this country, even in this system, even those people probably still need some actual evidence.

00:12:11.000 So, this is where we are.

00:12:14.000 Alright? This is where we are.

00:12:16.000 And these people should be ashamed of themselves.

00:12:19.000 It's disgusting that they'll destroy people's lives.

00:12:21.000 Remember, they were trying to go after his kid, you know, and then they realized that wasn't going anywhere to do this.

00:12:26.000 Yeah, that's all it is, man. 0.99

00:12:29.000 It's a game, and it sucks. 0.98

00:12:31.000 Because this isn't what America's about. 0.99

00:12:33.000 This is what Russia does. 0.95

00:12:34.000 This is what Iran does. 1.00

00:12:36.000 This is what China does. 0.98

00:12:37.000 But it's happening right here, right now. 0.99

00:12:39.000 And so many people are totally silent about it, which also sucks.

00:12:43.000 But we're going to keep fighting.

00:12:45.000 Because we have to. Because it's worth fighting for.

00:12:48.000 And we can't let this crap take over America. 0.98

00:12:50.000 Or we won't have an America that any of us recognize for our kids. 0.99
