The IRS has access to his returns...they audit him every year.

Where in my comment, that you'd quoted, did I ask for proof that he did not leak? The first line in that quoted comment was not about leaks it was about taxes. The rest of that quoted comment goes as follows ... "Your proof that mueller doesn't leak is because he filed detailed indictments? You have absolutely no proof that he doesn't leak." <---As you can see there is no request for proof, it is simply a statement of fact.

Just my opinion, but I agree with that theory and that coming to light is what has Trump and his kids so freaking frightened. Never mind collusion or sex payoffs; laundering Russian $ would put him in a real bad spot (not to mention Republicans in the House and Senate).

It is not a statement of fact, it is a logical fallacy.


Quote:
The argument from ignorance (or argumentum ad ignorantiam and negative proof) is a logical fallacy that claims the truth of a premise is based on the fact that it has not (yet) been proven false, or that a premise is false because it has not (yet) been proven true. This is often phrased as "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence".

Quote:
“â€The very lack of evidence is thus treated as evidence; the absence of smoke proves that the fire is very carefully hidden.
—C.S. Lewis

Trump has argued that he couldn't release the records because he was being audited by the Internal Revenue Service. But previous presidents and vice presidents have also been in the same situation, and have publicly released their tax returns.






Mueller May Have Information on Trump's Tax Returns



Hey everyone...... mark that date "OCT15" on your calendars! Great that it's before the midterm elections,LOL,LOL,LOL!



stupid topic....the IRS has all of Trump's tax returns and so does the New York State tax commission. If they have a problem with his returns they can audit his returns and subpoena bank statements.


You don't need Mueller for that.

I haven't read this thread in its entirety but of course Mueller has Trump's tax returns. Afterall, the IRS does. Just because the public doesn't get to see them doesn't mean the Fed is also in the blind here. What a hilarious post.

Trump is our employee and should be checked out.
"Trump was never vetted properly."

Funny you should say that.

Many said the same thing about Obama.

We know MORE about Trump's life before he became president and with only a year and half of being office them we do about Obama's life before becoming president and with 8 years in office.

And the left NEVER COMPLAINED then but, somehow are super concerned now.

I wonder WHY?
