Former Trump Tax Attorney Busted on Federal Extortion Charges
The attorney hired by President Donald Trump to challenge his Chicago tax assessments was slapped with federal charges Thursday, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
Federal agents raided Ed Burke’s government office and personal business office in the last two months.
It was unclear at the time if the federal investigation was regarding the president’s finances or something outside of Burke’s work for Trump. Burke did tax-related work for the Trump Organization for the past twelve years before the two parties severed the relationship earlier this year.

Another one bites the dust?
Even if this charge has nothing to do with Trump I am pretty sure that he will trade like a trading mans trading things about Trump to make this all go away!
