Soooo...when are you gonna explain the charges?

[fuzzypanda]

I'm guessing "orange man bad" is in there somewhere.

[hugoschmeisser]

anyone else impressed that this is all they could find wrong with 40 years of big business? I wonder how many other companies of this size or larger are this clean? I'm betting not many. if any.

[ChuteInSchitTV]

They're fishing. Pathetic! Weaponizing government another sign our great country is falling apart. Sad.

[Weimerica]

This is a complete joke, and could have been handled via certified mail rather than an indictment.

This isn't justice. This is political persecution. Make them pay the taxes owed plus a penalty and be done with it.

[dagenius]

3 years of investigation and this is what you came up with? Some taxes are owed on employee benefits? This is called “political retaliation”. Tactics used by Stalin, Mao, Castro etc.

[ccthunderccify]

You'd think the sad harassment would be over with them grabbing so many straws and wasting so much tax payer dollars. This is just getting very sad to keep watching

[electro]

the wich hunt continues and after 5 years they still got nothing..

[masona.]

“He, himself, is not charged.”

“There MAY be SOME indication.”

Yup, that sounds about right.

[californiaman]

Abolish the IRS and the Federal Reserve

[somethingsomethang]

Corrupt ny ag goes after Trump org but let’s Clinton foundation off for the same thing

[macro]

They have nothing, the fact that they had to resort to charging with scamming employee benefits indicates that they have absolutely nothing and wasted years on this

[dfgyuhdd]

Talk about reaching. They'll literally file charges against any piece of paper that has the word "Trump" on it at this point.

[FourThreeSeven]

Thats all they could find? Why even bother with these charges. What a bunch of clowns.

[jeffnagata]

It's not even at the Trump organization, it was an individual that received employee perks from a great boss, that didn't pay taxes on things such as a grand childs tuition or a rental apartment.

[cappy]

Lol after 5 yrs they finally found some low level tax stuff that will amount to a wet fart 😂

[cmdrbiglad]

seahawks should have ran the ball on the 1 yrd line

[itslash]

*5 year fishing expedition, only to turn up a rubber boot on a hook*

[jjano]

Rich people avoiding paying taxes. That's never happened before. Disgraceful front page news.

[rendabeltzer]

NY times couldn’t find single case like what Trumps CFO was charged with, not one, that says it all!
