the same law that Pelosi wants to use to get the President’s tax returns, has a section where the President can get her tax returns...
I’m guessing he (or via a proxy ) should subtly but loud enough to let Pelosi (and the House and Senate) and the public know...

Note that there is a specific Internal Revenue Service Code section that relates to processing tax returns for the President and Vice President. Special handling, does not get dumped in the Big Pile, probably does not even go into the data base in the Martinsburg WV computer. (probably in a locked safe in a DC IRS Attorney’s office.

“I have previously explained on Procedurally Taxing that the Section 6103 prohibition against disclosure of tax returns and return information provides only limited protection for the President’s tax returns. Section 6103 (b) establishes that the only protected returns and return information are those filed with the Service. Identical copies of the same documents which are not filed with the Service are not protected. Further, the statute establishes many detailed exceptions to the prohibition against disclosure.

Most of the commentary has focused upon the Section 6103(f) exception to the prohibition against disclosure which authorizes Congress to obtain returns and return information. Under the statute, the Service must provide the Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee any returns and return information specifically requested in writing, presumably including the President’s returns and any related audit files. The statute provides that any information in those documents identifying the taxpayer (i.e., the President) can be provided to the committee only when it is sitting in closed executive session. Interestingly, the statute does not contain any prohibition against further disclosure of the documents to the remainder of the Congress or disclosure of the information by the Congress to the general public. And, as Professor Yin has reported,Congress has occasionally read the statute as allowing it to disclose returns and return information to the public. Less formally, the documents might “leak.””


The information on his 1040 is safe until Nadler’s greasy Chick Dinners do a dirty fingerprint dance on the return.

If the Ds get his return it will be made public.
