    NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump’s chief financial officer is expected to plead guilty to tax violations Thursday in a deal that would require him to testify about illicit business practices at the former president’s company, two people familiar with
    the matter told The Associated Press.

    Allen Weisselberg is charged with taking more than $1.7 million in off-the-books compensation from the Trump Organization over several years, including untaxed perks like rent, car payments and school tuition.

    The plea deal would require Weisselberg to speak in court Thursday about the company’s role in the alleged compensation arrangement and possibly serve as a witness when the Trump Organization goes on trial in October on related charges, the people said.

    This gets back to what I have been saying all along. The best chance
    of "getting Trump" will be some obscure financial beef that most
    Americans won't fully understand and he will pay a fine. I suspect any
    of us who don't just live on a W2 and have no property or investments,
    have done something that violates some obscure law.
    John chastises me for taking a shortcut on my Schedule K, even tho it
    results in me paying a few bucks more in taxes. I assume it is still
    illegal.
    I have been audited twice and both times, the IRS owed me money.
    Master criminal I am.
    Come and get me copper ;)

    So, you're fine with cheating. Whooo... you got away with it. I'm sure
    we can get one of the 87,000 IRS agents to take another look. What a
    fucking moron.
