A SANTOS SCOOP: The 2022 Santos campaign reported a Santos family member donated $5800. We spoke to this person. They say they never gave any money. Yet another questionable donation for Santos. The latest from Noah Lanard and me....And Santos' campaign reported several of his relatives—including a mail handler, a painter, students & his sister Tiffany—made large donations totaling over $45K. Tiffany wouldn't confirm whether she & these relatives made the donations.

People need to be better informed. That’s a no brainer. Yet the more we absorb news coverage the more negative we are about the state of our lives. From time to time someone comes up with a “good news” show and it inevitably fails. People seem to thrive on bad news. That’s why we cover plane crashes but not when planes land safely. It’s why our lives are impacted by events that really don’t have a direct impact. “I can’t go bowling tonight because they had an earthquake in Bangladesh”.

J6 committee report says “The central cause of Jan. 6 was one man, former President Donald Trump, whom many others followed,” the report said. “None of the events of Jan. 6 would have happened without him.” Right..probably enough to indict, but convict?
The I.R.S. has a $7 trillion shortfall from rich taxpayers because of insufficient staff to audit their complex returns. That’s why Republicans starve the I.R.S. of funding.
One of the reasons Trump didn't want you to see his taxes: On their 2020 income tax returns, Trump and his wife Melania paid no federal income taxes and claimed a refund of $5.47 million,

The House Ways and Means Committee voted to release six years of Mr. Trump’s tax returns, ending a nearly four-year process to make his financial information public.

This may turn out to be Trump's ultimate downfall.
