Pelosi says House Democrats will begin process to obtain Trump tax returns
Reuters ^ | December 13, 2018 | by Ginger Gibson

WASHINGTON - Nancy Pelosi said Democrats will begin to seek President Donald Trump’s tax returns - a move likely to prompt outrage from the White House - when they take control of the U.S. House of Representatives in January.

The House Ways and Means Committee will “take the first steps,” said Pelosi, who has the backing of her members to become the next speaker of the House in January.

“There is popular demand for the Congress to request the president’s tax returns,” she said, speaking to reporters. “I’m sure the White House will resist, so the question is where do we go from there.”

They can request all they like, but there’s no law that says he has to show them. And I’d bet big coin they DO NOT want to see them.

Pay back for the beotch slap she got at the WH.
What she doesn’t realize is the POTUS has a whole boxful of “beotch slaps” just waiting for her.
Go ahead, RATs, and jump. See what happens to ya.

What authority does congress have to demand tax returns from the IRS? For what purpose? To dig for dirt?

The fickle American people who gave the democrats return of the house should be exported to Venezuela.

He should say OK, as soon as every DemonRat in Congress releases theirs.

In the meantime he should direct the IRS to audit every last one of them.

Question 1: Does she file “jointly” or “separately”?

Question 2: Will hubby Blum’s taxes get leaked, too (or first...)?

That one keeps running through my mind as well. I think things are going to get very interesting next year. Then again, every one of the last ten years has been more interesting than the previous.

It's not stupidity so much as it is incredible arrogance. They're the Uniparty Elite!!! They're UNTOUCHABLE!!!

And so far, they have good reason to believe it. Hildebeeste is walking free, as are 0bama, and Abedin, and Comey, and ...

Why is all this attacking behavior not considered harassment and a sueable offense?

Why do you want Trump's tax returns, Nancy? The IRS has them all and if there were any problems with them, the IRS would have prosecuted Trump for them.

There is no need for you to see Trump's tax returns other than abusing your position for political gain.

Ok, arrogant stupidity. Like the guy that tries to outrun the cops in a 20 year old pickup.

It began decades ago. Most people are just too stupid to realize it has been taking place in terms of incrementally reducing our freedoms.
