Sworn Deposition Shows Ivanka Lied Under Oath

When she was asked under oath in a sworn deposition she gave regarding possibly illegal fundraising and spending by the 2017 Trump inaugural, Ivanka Trump appears to have lied about her knowledge of how her father’s company, the Trump Organization, was run, and who was in charge of the day-to-day operations of the corporation.

Lying during a deposition is a crime. Just the same as testimony in court while under oath, lying as part of a deposition is also considered perjury.

The possible lies told by Ivanka were revealed by Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, a former close friend of Melania Trump who has soured on the Trumps since they attempted to blame her for the questionable finances of the Trump inaugural committee. Wolkoff posted this excerpt from Ivanka’s deposition on Twitter:

Allen Weisselberg has been the chief financial officer of the Trump Organization since the early 1970s and is considered to be the person who knows where every dollar of the company’s money is raised and spent.

Shortly after Wolkoff made her posting, Trump’s former personal attorney and fixer, Michael Cohen, responded with this:

Ivanka isn’t he first of the Trump children to get caught lying under oath. Her brother, Donald Trump Jr., also appears to have perjured himself, as Mother Jones first reported in April:

“During his deposition, Trump Jr. frequently replied, ‘I don’t recall,’ and he downplayed his involvement in preparation for his father’s inauguration in January 2017. In several exchanges, he made statements that are contradicted by documents or the recollections of others and that appear to be false.”

Don Jr’s. apparent lying was also regarding the 2017 Trump inaugural committee, which is believed to have personally enriched the Trump Organization by tens of millions of dollars, money that was diverted illegally to the Trump family in violation of federal and state law.

Perhaps the truest words ever said by a member of the Trump family were reportedly uttered by the failed, one-term former president, who raged that he wasn’t getting any of the money for the presidential transition:

“Fuck the law. I don’t give a fuck about the law. I want my fucking money.”

For a con man and grifter, it’s always about the fucking money. And it’s clear the Trump children inherited that grifting gene from their old man.

Cindy McCain Reveals Secrets About Ivanka Trump In Her Startling New Book

Cindy McCain was married to the late Arizona Sen. John McCain for 38 years, and she’s written a memoir that focuses in part on the last few months of her husband’s life entitled Stronger, in which she reveals that in the final days of the senator’s life, only a few “trusted” people were allowed to visit: Joe Biden, Lindsey Graham, and Mitt Romney.

Interestingly, Mrs. McCain notes, her husband’s running mate, Sarah Palin, never reached out when the senator was diagnosed with brain cancer:

“In the fourteen months that John had been sick, she never once spoke to him. He had put her on the political map, and she didn’t even send him a note of good wishes when he was down. That is not someone you invite to a final farewell.

“I was just very disappointed in what Mrs. Palin did, because I just felt that… I had hoped that she had felt my husband was as loved as I did. And I was just very disappointed. I think I was more disappointed than John.”

Another person who wasn’t invited: Then-President Donald Trump. However, his daughter, Ivanka, along with her husband, Jared Kushner, did make an appearance, and McCain took it all in stride, refusing to hold a grudge against Ivanka even though her father had gone out of the way to say horrible things about the late senator:

“John always taught me that it takes more energy to be mad than to simply move on,” she writes in her memoir. “I don’t know exactly why Ivanka and Jared wanted to be there. But I am hoping they came for the reason I would think — that they mourned the loss of my husband.”

There was no reason for Ivanka to attend the McCain funeral, and it’s incredibly generous of Mrs. McCain to suggest that Ivanka was mourning the senator’s death. It’s a lot more likely she did it because she has political ambitions and didn’t want to diss a war hero.

Ivanka Trump may appear to be classier than her lowlife father, but she’s a bottom feeder, too. As for politics, here’s a bold prediction: No Trump will ever hold any office again in this country. They’re political poison and the American people have rejected them.

Ivanka Trump Accidentally Admits That Her Father Has Ruined Her Life

With the Texas ice storm dominating the headlines, you may have missed another announcement that came down the pike on Thursday: Ivanka Trump has decided that she won’t run against Sen. Marco Rubio in 2022, the Associated Press reports:

“The former president’s eldest daughter and ex-senior White House adviser spoke with Rubio several weeks ago and told him she would not be running for his seat, according to a Rubio campaign spokesperson. The two have also discussed appearing at a joint event.

“The conversation, first reported by The New York Times, comes a day after Donald Trump re-emerged after nearly a moth of self-imposed silence, conducting a series of interviews to commemorate the death of conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh. Trump would not comment on his political future in the interviews, saying it was too soon to talk about whether he will run again in 2024.”

But what Ivanka really revealed is that she knows she has no political future whatsoever.

How so? Well, if the former president’s daughter really wanted to follow in his footsteps, she’d jump right in while a large portion of the GOP is still obsessed with all things Trump.

She didn’t, however, and that speaks volumes about Ivanka’s awareness that her father has destroyed whatever chances she had of holding any elected office, as Bess Levin notes in Vanity Fair:

“As you might have heard, Ivanka’s dad incited a fascist coup in an attempt to overthrow the U.S. government, undertaken by people the former first daughter addressed as ‘American patriots,’ before trying to furiously backtrack. And apparently having uncharacteristically read the room, Ivanka has decided that now is not the right time to take the first step in a series of steps that she believes will lead to her becoming the U.S.’s first woman president.”

Ivanka isn’t the only Trump who plans to sit out 2022. Bloomberg reports Don Jr. will also steer clear of seeking any elected office in the next election cycle:

“Trump’s oldest son, Donald Trump Jr., also doesn’t plan to run for any office in the next election cycle, though he’s aware of suggestions that he pursue a Senate seat from Pennsylvania or Montana or move to Wyoming to challenge Republican Representative Liz Cheney, people familiar with his plans said. Cheney, daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, voted to impeach the former president and was censured by her state Republican Party amid demands for her resignation.”

The Trump siblings are learning something that Rick Wilson put his finger on a few years back: Everything Donald Trump touches dies. And that now includes the so-called political futures of his family members.

Former Staffer Says Jared Kushner Is Gay And In An ‘Arranged Marriage’ With Ivanka

The final night of the Republican convention last month was full-scale propaganda night, with the apex of the lying and misinformation being (as you’d expect), Donald Trump’s 70-minute long rant in which he repeatedly patted himself on the back while simultaneously spewing out bullshit about how terrible things would be if he’s not reelected. In other words, only he can fix it, but he’s had four years and hasn’t fixed shit. But give him four more and everything will be unicorns and cotton candy.


Prior to the Donald’s dystopian soliloquy, however, his daughter, Ivanka — who also happens to work in the White House in some capacity no can seem to explain — did her best to paint her father as some sort of normal guy instead of the monster he truly is.

Perhaps the most disgusting thing Ivanka said was this:

“Dad, people attack you for being unconventional. But I love you for being real, and I respect you for being effective.”

Effective at what? Being a total racist asshole so filled with bullshit that everything he does is coated with a dark sheen of fetid feces?


Around the time Ivanka was speaking, Noel Casler, who was a showrunner on “The Apprentice,” fired off a tweet that got a lot of attention on social media:

Wow! Now that’s a headline-grabber!

Most people who read Casler’s tweet said they had no problem believing his accusation, but some also had questions:

Things just keep getting more interesting when it comes to the Trumps. Hopefully very soon they can work out their issues in private or, even better, in prison.
