Ivanka Distances from Trump Election Farce as Jail Looms for Daddy's Best Girl

Mercury News: Ivanka Trump is among a growing number of President Donald Trump's close advisers who want nothing to do with his legal efforts to subvert the results of the Nov. 3 election, according to a new report.

These advisers may publicly act as though they believe Trump and his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani can pull some kind of courtroom miracle to prove widely debunked claims of election fraud, Axios reported.

Quote"But talk to them privately, and many say Rudy Giuliani and his team are on a dead-end path," Axios writers Jonathan Swan and Alayna Treene said.

"Even Jared and Ivanka think this is going nowhere," Swan and Treene said, citing people who have spoken to Trump's daughter and son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

According to Axios, Trump's close aides, who include Ivanka Trump, are averse to getting anywhere near Giuliani and his planned courtroom drama.

Quote"Most hardcore Trump sources have psychologically bailed, and are just waiting out the storm," Axios said.

Meanwhile, Ivanka Trump is facing the possibility of some courtroom drama of her own.

A bombshell New York Times report Thursday described how Ivanka Trump could be enmeshed in two separate fraud investigations by the New York attorney general and the Manhattan district attorney's office.

The investigations are looking into the president's business dealings as head of the Trump Organization. Ivanka Trump was a vice president in her father's company before she joined his White House in 2017.

Vanity Fair: Ivanka Trump – How dare you investigate my father for tax fraud which he definitely didn't use me to commit

Vanity Fair: Probably at the top of Javanka's mind are the billboards circling Trump Tower reminding passersby about their role in the COVID-19 crisis, which they really, really don't appreciate.

But seemingly the most pressing issue keeping the first daughter up at night is the prospect of her father going to prison, if her unusually huffy response to the news that he's being investigated for tax fraud is any indication.

QuoteCBS confirms: Ivanka subpoenaed for civil and criminal NY probes. Key to note many foreign money cases begin with fraud on taxes, a loan application, etc. If money is illicit, it requires layers of lies to hide its origin. Manafort case worked this way.

Commenting on a New York Times report that both Manhattan district attorney Cy Vance and New York state attorney general Letitia James have expanded their probes of Trump and his businesses to include suspicious tax write-offs on millions of dollars of consulting fees, some of which appear to have gone to his favorite child, Ivanka fumed on Twitter that this whole thing is apparently a witch hunt designed to take her extremely innocent father down:

She added: "This fishing expedition is very clearly part of a continued political vendetta."

https://twitter.com/TimesofIsrael/status/1329692718264508416?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1329692718264508416%7Ctwgr%5E&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.veteranstoday.com%2F2020%2F11%2F21%2Fvanity-fair-ivanka-trump-how-dare-you-investigate-my-father-for-tax-fraud-which-he-definitely-didnt-use-me-to-commit%2F

According to the Times, both Vance and James's office issued subpoenas to the Trump Organization in recent weeks relating to the consulting fees, following an investigation by the paper that revealed the president paid little to no income tax in the last two decades.

https://twitter.com/AP/status/1329635671846367233?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1329635671846367233%7Ctwgr%5E&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.veteranstoday.com%2F2020%2F11%2F21%2Fvanity-fair-ivanka-trump-how-dare-you-investigate-my-father-for-tax-fraud-which-he-definitely-didnt-use-me-to-commit%2F

That report also showed that Trump was able to reduce his taxable income by deducting approximately $26 million in fees to "consultants" as business expenses between 2010 and 2018. While the consultants' identities were not shown on tax records, some of the fees definitely seem like they were paid to Princess Purses, which might explain her testy reaction:
On a 2017 disclosure she filed when joining the White House as a presidential adviser, she reported receiving payments from a consulting company she co-owned, totaling $747,622, that exactly matched consulting fees claimed as tax deductions by the Trump Organization for hotel projects in Hawaii and Vancouver, British Columbia.
