why stop there ?
why not go for 2.3 billion ?
or even 23 billion ?
Since his lickspittle defence team now runs the DOJ, a big payout seems very likely.
If he gets away with this, much bigger grifts are inevitable...
"..President Trump has reportedly demanded the Justice Department pay him $230 million in compensation for past investigations against him — and he just may get his wish.
Trump’s claims against the department, which he’s staffed with allies including his former personal attorney, is without precedent, according to The New York Times.
Justice Department regulations allow for the deputy attorney general to sign off on such a settlement. That office is occupied by Todd Blanche, who worked for Trump in the private sector and famously represented him during his 2024 “hush money” trial in New York City.
Stanley Woodward Jr., who heads the department’s civil division and has represented a number of other MAGA figures, including FBI Director Kash Patel, is also permitted to authorize a payment.
Trump’s demand reportedly came in the form of two administrative claims that could be heard by a court if ignored or declined by the DOJ. However, that’s unlikely considering the president is “already negotiating, in essence, with his subordinates,” according to The Times, citing sources familiar with the matter.
Trump’s claims were filed in 2023 and 2024. The first one reportedly says that, among other things, his rights were violated when the FBI and a special counsel investigated potential links between his 2016 presidential campaign and Russian interlopers.
The second complaint alleges the FBI and the DOJ violated his privacy when his Mar-a-Lago estate was searched for classified documents in 2022. It also accuses the DOJ of malicious prosecution in charging him with mishandling the sensitive records.
