    Ah, so according to Trump supporters, covid isn't as deadly in red states. That's comical.

    It's unassailable fact. The Red States have nearly all done a great job. Several Blue States screwed the pooch with deadly results, though some Blue States have done a very good job, right up there with the tremendous Red State jobs.

    Take CA Gov Newsome, At key moments he made good decisions where the Govs of the Blue States with horrific records made terrible choices that filled the mortuaries with the elderly. CA had the same stupid rule about forcing COVID positive patients into nursing homes, but when there was pushback, Newsom wisely backed off, and save likely tens of thousands.

    This was real life and we have Blue Govs that made deadly calls, with a real life butcher's bill, the result.

    Oregon is a Blue State and did a very good job, HI did an outstanding job. ME and VT did very good jobs. CA and WA did above average jobs.

    So Democrats will have to wait until AFTER Trump gets elected to commence with articles of impeachment after a special council is appointed (presuming Dems still control the HOR) to investigate Trump tax data.

    “it’s like Deja Vu all over again” :)

    All you have to do is insult your fellow Americans for having different beliefs. Take cheap jabs like "two brain cells". Sadly, your post is just another example of why Trump is an accurate reflection of the average American. We deserve him.

    On the contrary. My post expresses my opinion. Isn't that what forums like this are for?

    Your post was a cheap, Trump-like insult. (2 brain cells) Maybe one day, Americans will learn to respect those with opposing views. Until then, we deserve Trump.

    Back on topic, Government, IRS, and our legal system is already out of control with power. Dislike for Trump is not enough to justify this abuse.

    Just keeping everybody up-to-date

    Trump keeps fighting
    Here's the latest on the Vance case.... naturally Mr. Obstruction is keeping after it

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-files-challenge-subpoena-tax-212835162.html

    But here's what the Vance judge said on the case last week.

    SNIP
    In the video hearing, Marrero hinted that he had already addressed the president’s concerns last October and only new information would change his mind.
    ENDSNIP

    More filings today.... Vance's includes the quote “extensive and protracted criminal conduct at the Trump Organization.”

    Well, Duh!

    https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/prosecutor-seeking-trumps-taxes-cites-171546052.html

    Trumps Lying Filing filled with bullshit is due and arguments will be scheduled by mid August, at which point Marrero will rule that Trump has brought nothing new to the party and this lawsuit will be dismissed yet again.

    Sounds like the House has made whatever "modifications" they felt were needed to get their subpoena through the SCOTUS hoops... (although it wouldn't surprise me if Schiff just moved a few comma's around and called it done).

    I'm sure they are still asking for the basically the information they were before.

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/u-house-panel-narrows-deutsche-142202760.html

    Surprised it took them this long, but nothing moves fast in DC...

    Now what??

    BTFOM, but my hope is that Biden will win by an big margin, beyond argument, and Trump will be forced to leave office, at which time he becomes indictable for all of the corruption he's engaged in. One can dream . . .

    Well, that simple solution will be for the common good, but the point of this whole thing, from the Congressional side, is that Congress is the only party capable of providing oversight to the POTUS. If they cannot do that, in a timely and organized fashion, it's the same as having no oversight..

    Also the results of Congressional inquires can lead to criminal indictments, when forwarded to a future, real DOJ

    Thus, the House has to play this out to the end, even when Trump is gone, to set future precedent in case the Party Of Trump rebounds in 2024...
