Summary

Liz Oyer talks to us about the president’s outrageous corruption and the complete distain he and his allies have for the American people and the rule of law. This billion dollar slush fund of taxpayer money his own personal lawyer has created for him along with the addition of total immunity from the IRS to ever hold him, his businesses, or his family accountable for tax evasion in perpetuity, has to have even president’s most ardent supporters questioning what’s going on.

0:00.0	The amount of debt that Donald Trump has forgiven through pardons is over $1.5 billion.
0:07.4	That's money that is owed to victims of crime as well as taxpayers from financial frauds and other crimes committed by wealthy Americans that were then forgiven by Donald Trump.
0:18.1	So $1.5 billion owed to us and to victims of crimes that Trump wiped out
0:23.2	with his partons.
0:33.3	Hello, and welcome to the Politics Girl podcast. I'm your host Lee McGowan. Let's get into it.
0:38.5	Well, after this week, the Trump administration is no longer just a corrupt enterprise. It's more like a criminal one.
0:44.7	In case you weren't following the case where Donald Trump was suing the Justice Department over a leaked tax return, the same tax returns he'd promised to release himself since 2014, but never did.
0:56.1	Trump was demanding a $10 billion payout, but has now officially dropped the lawsuit, which
1:01.9	was completely outrageous. It was a case that likely would have been thrown out should it have
1:05.7	ever got to court, because his personally appointed lawyer and current acting attorney general
1:10.5	offered him a settlement
1:11.8	instead. A settlement, which, among other things, will give him a $1.8 billion slush fund from taxpayer
1:19.3	dollars to do with what he wants. To talk about this lawsuit, the settlement and the additional
1:24.9	side dishes of the settlement, I am speaking today with
1:27.7	former DOJ official and presidential pardon lawyer Liz Oyer about what she calls the biggest heist
1:33.2	in history. If you don't know Liz from social media or substack, where she gives her legal and
1:38.0	governmental expertise to us daily, she was fired from the DOJ in March 2025 after she refused
1:43.8	Trump's request to let Mel Gibson have his gun rights restored just because he wanted them to be.
1:49.8	To her, the law still mattered, because along with her being a pardon attorney, Liz had spent 10 years as a federal public defender.
1:57.3	So without further ado, please welcome my guest, former DOJ pardon attorney, federal public defender,
2:03.0	and legal experts sounding the alarm about the Trump administration's abuse of our legal system, Liz Oyer.
2:08.9	Welcome, Liz.
