Wow.
He's broken the law.
Y'all should impeach him.
yes, he had broken the law.
And as for impeachment, we're working on it. Of course since McConnell has no compunctions about being complicit with a law breaker, with any luck we can vote both of them out of office instead
Because they’re extremely complicated and his political opponents will find something in there to use against him. Remember Mitt Romney was donating 30% of his income to charity, tens of millions of dollars, and they still hammered him for his taxes. There’s nothing to gain from it.
Except of course that is "fake news!" because it's absolutely Congress's business, and there are laws saying so.
But that never stops the GOP from ignoring laws and putting party before country.
Delusional GOPer sheeple who accept all the BS Trump can throw, but whose heads would have exploded if Obama or another Democrat had claimed they didn't need to comply with a Congressional subpoena, and anyone who claims otherwise is a liar.
Meh...the DOJ sent Congress and their subpoenas packing last month, saying, in effect, it was quite clear to them that Congress was lying about having a legitimate legislative purpose in requesting these tax returns. The cat got out of the bag, obviously, when Congress subpoenaed six years of Trump's tax returns, under the transparent pretext of analyzing presidential tax audit procedures.
Of course, at the time the subpoena was issued, Trump had only been president for two years, not six, revealing the whole gambit to be a canard. If Congress had really deemed it necessary to subpoena six years of presidential tax returns for their stated purpose of reviewing presidential tax audit procedures, they would obviously have demanded Obama's tax returns for the last four years of his administration, in addition to the two years of returns Trump filed while president.
The DOJ rightly judged that the actual purpose of the Congressional request was to obtain Trump's tax returns for the express purpose of leaking them to the public, and they steadfastly refused to go along with the charade. I know we'll both agree that the DOJ arrived at absolutely the correct decision in this case, given that the Ways & Means Committee blatantly lied about why they wanted the tax returns.
Its obvious hes been screwing the system and doesnt want people to know, which is rather odd as he must know by now his base will give him a free pass on any coruption he has purpetrated,in his bases thinking this bum is akin to God and can do no wrong no matter what the allegation.
He doesn't want to, and he enjoys playing with Leftist bullies, who always think they can demand and insist and intimidate.
You'd would never get mine, either.
He who keeps secrets has secrets to keep.
He and others who hold onto secrets are operating on fear. This is very dangerous.

It remains to be seen whether the "DOJ" and Mnuchin "rightly judged," as Congress has decided to speak the only language Trump understands. They have sued the IRS and Treasury to obtain them. They do not need to 'justify' anything.
We will see how the judge rules to determine if the DOJ is even allowed to "rightly judge" anything in this case. We will see if this admin will obey the rule of law or remain lawless.
