Attorneys for Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance argued Monday that President Donald Trump should be forced to comply with a subpoena for his tax documents — and suggested that his company was under investigation for alleged insurance and bank fraud.

The disclosure in a federal court filing adds a new dimension to the battle over the president’s financial records.

Vance’s office subpoenaed Trump’s accounting firm, Mazars USA, in 2019 as part of an investigation into the Trump Organization about payments made to two women who have alleged affairs with the president, which he has denied. But the latest filing suggests Vance’s probe extends beyond the hush-money payments.

Trump’s lawyers filed an amended lawsuit last week saying Vance’s subpoena for tax documents from the president’s tax preparer was "overbroad" and was brought in bad faith. The new suit followed a decision by the Supreme Court last month that said a president is not immune from a grand jury subpoena while in office.

This is why Trump is so frantic; if he loses the election, there are indictments waiting for him.

Doubtlessly Michael Cohen could shed some light. Will his book come out before the election?

What about Playmate Shera Bechard? Why was Cohen involved in paying her hush money? We know she had an abortion after getting pregnant by an important Republican; and we know Elliott Broidy took the blame for that, but could he have have been taking the fall for Trump?

Keith Davidson - Wikipedia

In May 2018, The Wall Street Journal reported that Shera Bechard, another former Playmate, had retained Davidson to negotiate for her a $1.6 million payment from an unnamed Republican Party official. According to a nondisclosure agreement found among documents seized in the raid on Michael Cohen's office the previous month, the money was for an affair that had led to an abortion. The agreement had been signed "David Dennison," for Cohen's client, the same pseudonym that Trump had used to sign his agreement with Daniels while Davidson had represented her. The Journal later identified the official as Elliott Broidy, the Republican party's deputy finance chairman, a financier convicted of bribery in 2009. According to the Journal's account, after Bechard retained Davidson, he contacted Cohen.

New York magazine columnist Paul Campos suspected that, based on the timing of the arrangement, Broidy may have accepted responsibility for Trump. Campos believed it was much more plausible that it was Trump who had impregnated Bechard and paid to keep the abortion from becoming public knowledge. Campos noted that the first of eight $200,000 installments had been paid to Davidson in early December 2017, just before Bechard fired Davidson, believing he was putting the opposing client's interest above hers.

In July 2018, Broidy announced he was ceasing payments, claiming that the agreement was no longer valid because Davidson had leaked the information to Michael Avenatti, a claim Davidson denied. Campos said this, too, makes no sense as the unauthorized disclosure of the information would not be legal grounds to void the entire agreement; if that had happened, Broidy should have sued Davidson, since he had not represented Bechard since the agreement was signed.

He did say he thought there are three exceptions. Maybe if he wants a woman to have one, that would be a fourth.

He lists rape, incest and the life of the mother as three exceptions. If a fetus is really a person with all the rights according to human beings, I cannot justify abortion because of the sins of its parents. People who claim to be pro-life but say fetuses can be aborted in cases of incest and rape do not really believe they are persons.

Apparently, Trump organization has been suspected of bank fraud and insurance fraud, inflating or deflating value of properties to defraud tax agencies and banks. Which would explain why Trump is so frantic to keep the records hidden.

It seems that not all lives matter to Trump.

Washington—President Donald Trump asked a woman with whom he was having an extramarital affair in May of 2012, to get an abortion when he thought she might be pregnant, a newspaper reported Tuesday.

The Dallas Morning News said it obtained text messages between the president and the woman, who wrote on May 3 of that year: “Donny, you’ve been parading your pro-life stance all over the place but you had no issue asking me to abort our unborn child when you thought it would be bad for you.”

The president allegedly wrote back, “While I don’t think it’s mine, I really don’t. I can’t prove it, but I bet you’ve had a lot of sex. Anyway, I’ll send you a thou to get rid of it.”

In 2012, Donald Trump, not yet president, was married to Melania Trump and their son, Barron, was six.

Even more legal problems. . . .

In a loss for Trump, judge says woman who accused him of rape can proceed with defamation suit

A New York judge handed a loss Thursday to President Donald Trump in the defamation lawsuit brought by a woman who says he raped her years ago, rejecting Trump's bid to delay the case while an appeals court considered a separate, but similar, matter.

Verna Saunders, a New York Supreme Court Justice, wrote that the lawsuit filed by journalist E. Jean Carroll could move forward and need not wait for an appeals court decision in a similar suit brought by former "Apprentice" contestant Summer Zervos, who also alleges Trump sexually assaulted her.

The president has denied both women's allegations.

Thursday's ruling means that in the coming weeks and months, Carroll's legal team can press forward with seeking Trump's DNA, which they hope to compare to genetic material on the dress she said she wore during the incident, and with trying to interview Trump under oath. Trump can also seek depositions from Carroll and those she says she told about the incident. Saunders scheduled a telephone conference in the case for Sept. 30.

"We are now eager to move forward with discovery so that we can prove that Donald Trump defamed E. Jean Carroll when he lied about her in connection with her brave decision to tell the truth about the fact that Donald Trump had sexually assaulted her," said Roberta Kaplan, a lawyer for Carroll.
