Panama papers and or Pentagon papers here we come. I just hope that the accountants and journalists can work fast enough to get out a revelation each day till Jan 20. This election might only end at that date!

Three points come to mind instantly directly concerning Trump:

Firstly, the mountains of Russian cash the Trump/Kushner have laundered directly through their condominium sales operations.

Secondly, the possible/probable Russian origin of Trumps corporate and personal borrowing through Deutsch Bank. These people aren't happy neither with losing their "laundered" capital through legal foreclosure or criminal bankrupcy nor with being exposed for their criminal behaviour on all the front pages of every newspaper and on headlines of every TV/internt news. Secrecy is golden and its breach deadly...and Putin is both their leader and their principal enforcer.

Thirdly, this will hit the Koch Poltical Network that own, organize and finance the GOP as they will be as exposed as their Russian "brothers" and other Plutocrats. They have the same morals, fears, aims and methods. Trump's campaign is running short of cash and his financiers might be a little annoyed that this breach was allowed and draw in their horns to protect their wealth and the GOP could suffer the consequences across the board. This is going to be fun!

Tears for the honor being so righteously bestowed upon Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

A little relief that justice is tapping more and more cracks into the veneer covering the dark money and greed that threaten our democracy and well being.
