There apparently is no such thing as the rule of law and due process rights for any American whom the Democrats don’t personally like.
On Saturday, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that Donald Trump is owed a million dollar refund on a skyscraper, according to a state order. But the Cook County’s attorney general, Kimberly Foxx, has filed a lawsuit to block the tax refund for Trump personally.
“The Illinois Property Tax Appeal Board has decided former President Donald Trump is due a $1 million refund on his skyscraper’s 2011 tax bill, ruling last month that the Cook County Board of Review overestimated the value of the building’s hotel rooms and retail space,” the Sun Times reported.

Cook County has filed actions against Trump and his policies on illegal immigration, including on the “public charge” rule, employment practices, as well as health care polices.
