mab22 Posted September 12, 2020 at 02:15 AM Share Posted September 12, 2020 at 02:15 AM So was this democrat moron, who has no problem taxing everyone else and then cheats, ground zero or subject 1? ”Federal prosecutors said Link falsified his income on his return for 2016. Link reported his total income that year was $264,450 even though he knew his income "substantially exceeded that amount," according to the charging document.The tax charge followed media reports identifying Link as the unnamed senator who cooperated with the FBI and wore a wire to trap then-state Rep. Luis Arroyo of Chicago in a federal bribery case. Arroyo has pleaded not guilty.Federal documents indicate the person who cooperated falsified tax returns and helped the FBI to get leniency. Link repeatedly has denied he was the FBI source.“ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
