🚨BREAKING: Two separate New York State #fraud investigations into Trump and his businesses—1 CRIMINAL and 1 civil—have expanded to include tax write-offs on millions of dollars in consulting fees, some of which appear to have gone to @IvankaTrump.💥
The inquiries —a CRIMINAL investigation by Manhattan DA Cy Vance Jr and a civil one by the state attorney general, @NewYorkStateAG James are being conducted independently, bBth offices *issued subpoenas* to the Trump Organization in recent weeks for records related to the fees.🔥
Trump reduced his taxable income by deducting ~$26 million in fees to unidentified consultants as a “business expense” between 2010 and 2018.
Some of those fees appear to have been paid to Ivanka.🧐
On a 2017 disclosure Ivanka filed when joining the WH, she reported payments from a “consulting” company she co-owned totaling $747,622 that exactly matched consulting fees claimed as tax deductions by Trump Org.
Ivanka WORKS FOR Trump Org—getting “consulting” fees is FRAUD.💥
Ivanka was an executive officer of the Trump companies that made the payments—meaning she wastreated as a consultant while also working for the company.
VERY SHADY.🙄

BREAKING: Great news! @pfizer to submit an Emergency Use Authorization request to @US_FDA *TODAY* for its #coronavirus vaccine—they’ll will distribute the #vaccine "within hours after authorization.”
Pfizer has enough to dose ~12.5 million Americans this year, much more in 2021.
Pfizer’s #vaccine was 95% effective at preventing #COVID19 and had NO serious safety issues.
✅94% effective in people >65, who are more likely to develop life-threatening illness
✅Safety data available for 100 children between 12-15 yo
Once Pfizer and BioNTech file their application, the data will be scrutinized by regulators — including at a full-day advisory committee meeting in which external scientists will meet to make recommendations to the agency on whether it should clear the vaccine for broader use.🧐
⚠️NO SURPRISE: the surge of new #coronavirus cases is WORST in states whose leaders neglected to enforce virus containment efforts or failed to implement mask mandates, such as #SouthDakota and #NorthDakota, 2 of the 3 hottest #COVID19 zones in the world.
A relationship between policies and #coronavirus cases is CLEAR:
States with more consistent control policies—such as in New England—avoided a summer surge and are now having a smaller fall surge, as opposed to states that rolled them back very quickly like #Florida or #Texas.
For a while, its residents were spared. Now, nearly 1 in 10 North Dakotans have tested positive for #coronavirus — about a third of those in just the past 2 weeks — and **1 in 1,000 have DIED of #COVID19**.😱
ENCOURAGING: Pfizer says the vaccine is >94% effective in adults over 65 years old, who have higher risk for serious #COVID19 and death, and added; “Efficacy was consistent across age, race and ethnicity demographics.”
Based on current projections, Pfizer and its partner expect to produce globally up to 50 million vaccine doses in 2020 (2 doses needed for each person vaccinated) and up to 1.3 billion doses in 2021.🙏
🚨BREAKING: Good news! #Moderna says preliminary data show that its #coronavirus vaccine was 94.5% effective in protecting study volunteers from #COVID19.
Moderna also says that the preliminary data show that its #vaccine is safe, but they still await longer-term safety results that will be available in late November.🙏
Although preliminary—and we will need to see data published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal—Moderna’s results “are very impressive and very encouraging and exciting results,” per Dr. Fauci.
If all goes well, Moderna’s #vaccine could be authorized by FDA next month!

Winter is coming.😰
In-home gatherings are fueling #coronavirus spread.
As I warned, we are "heading down the path to Hell...
“We represented the opposing sides in Bush v. Gore. We still don’t agree about how SCOTUS ruled, but we completely agree that nothing in that case—or in SCOTUS’ decision—supports the challenges now being thrown about in an attempt to undermine #PresidentElect@JoeBiden’s victory”
🔥”Over the past week, we have heard repeated assertions that the outcome of this election is somehow in doubt, as it was in 2000.
