The DA Has Trump's Taxes

 The Manhattan District Attorney has received eight years of Donald Trump's tax returns pursuant to a Supreme Court order delivered to Trump's accountants, Mazars. It will take DA Cyrus Vance Jr.'s team awhile to go through the "millions of pages" of records. High on the list of objectives will be to see if the Trump Organization committed tax fraud by lowballing the value of his properties to the IRS while committing bank fraud by overvaluing them to banks for the purpose of securing loans. They will also try to establish whether Trump or the organization, under Trump's authority made illegal payments, such as the ones Trump's longtime "fixer" Michael Cohen made as hush money to buy the silence of women who claim to have had affairs with Trump. Cohen has served prison time for this offense, which he said Trump ordered and later reimbursed him.

For Trump, the clock is ticking.

Covid-19 Vaccination

I got my second covid-19 shot (Pfizer) yesterday about 1:30 pm. Starting late morning today I've begun to experience flu-like symptoms. My temperature is elevated to 99.5 and I have general achiness and fatigue. I understand this is good; it shows my immune system believes it is under assault by the virus and is implementing its countermeasures, part of which should entail manufacturing the appropriate t-cells to attack the virus and saving the templates so they can be rapidly produced should the real culprit ever show up. This is all good, but I'd recommend you not schedule anything strenuous the day after your second shot. I'll see if things improve or not tomorrow and give you another update.
