Sean Hannity Lauds 'Patriotic' $1.76 Billion Slush Fund

Trump bootlicker Sean Hannity wants you to believe Trump and his cronies stealing $1.76 billion of our tax dollars is somehow "patriotic."

Here's Hannity from this Tuesday's show on Fox, giving the corruption a passing mention between segments, bashing Democrats for comparing Trump to Hitler, and talking to Ted Cruz via Media Matters:

SEAN HANNITY (HOST): President Trump has settled his $10 billion lawsuit with the IRS after suing over the illegal disclosure of not only his tax records, his entire family, every company owned by the Trump organization by a rogue IRS contractor who broke the law in doing so.

And as part of the agreement to end this case, the DOJ rightly agreed to set aside the patriotic amount of $1.76 billion to settle other claims like this.

In a statement tonight, the Trump Organization tells us that the settlement help provide accountability for the illegal leak of the tax information of President Trump, his sons, and over 500 Trump organization entities, leaks that resulted in criminal charges, prison sentences.

Maryland Sparks Trump Rant By Holding Fair Elections

On Monday, Donald Trump launched a rant on his Truth Social account intended to accuse Wes Moore of sending out duplicate ballots so people could vote twice.

"In Maryland, they sent out 500,000 Illegal Mail In Ballots, and they got caught! So now, they're going to send out 500,000 more Mail In Ballots, but nobody knows what's happening with the first 500,000 they sent," he wrote. "In addition, many of these Ballots went to Democrats, so any Republican running in Maryland doesn't have a chance!"

How terrible!!! You would think, from this opening salvo, that Wes Moore intentionally tried to bar Republicans from voting. And there's more.

"This was done by the Corrupt Governor of the State, Wes Moore. He allowed this to happen in order to make sure that Democrats win. It never made sense to me that Maryland was considered an automatic Democrat State, but now I see why. I'm sure this has gone on for years. I'm going to ask the Attorney General of the United States, and the DOJ, to bring an immediate investigation into this situation. President DONALD J. TRUMP"
