Yesterday, I started the show with the news that Trump was reportedly planning to settle his $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS, potentially for enough money to double his net worth, I would note, potentially for protections from future IRS audits. And that whole settlement was reportedly expected to happen out of court before Trump's lawyers were expected to appear in front of a judge next week, and it had already been scheduled, a judge who very well may have thrown out the case entirely. So yeah, that- that's what we started the show with yesterday. If you were watching, you may remember. And just Trump's personal lawyers, again, again, this is, just, like, I have to restate this, coming to an agreement with the Justice Department run by his former personal lawyers privately to potentially give Trump billions of your tax dollars. And yesterday, that seemed unfathomably corrupt and brazen, far beyond what he had ever attempted in the past.
