The detailed audits of Comey and McCabe were investigated and determined to be a very strange coincidence but nothing more, so as you suggest it is unlikely that any case has some paper trail of nefarious plotting against enemies of the Administration.Obviously the date is an important factor, but what evidence should we expect to show it was "politically motivated"? If it was politically motivated, and there are multiple people involved, the odds of there being a paper trail are slim, right? Those involved aren't going to send emails discussing their plans.
I agree it was probably an error, but I’m going to call everything nefarious as we hear incessantly from the MAGAs.If Hegseth got a correspondence audit, that would usually be a 4-8 week matter. If it were an in-person audit, that would take a minimum of 3 months (and probably more like 5-7 months, or forever if your taxes are as complicated as, say, DJT).
Of course I guess another headline is that among other things, the SecDef who made $6 million the last two years didn't pay a sufficient amount of taxes, though the amount shown ($33,558), while not nothing, suggests some deduction or calculation error rather than nefarious tax dodging for that amount of income.
Cheat on the wife, cheat on the taxes. Like chocolate and peanut butter.Who would have thought he was a Tax cheat?
