You would think these clowns would have something better to do . . . keep it up! Will the last wealthy guy who leaves NY turn off the lights? I’m sure Fairfield County is licking it’s chops at that one.

An ex post facto law.
prohibited by Article I, Section 10, Clause 1, of the U.S. Constitution.

Yeah right...and get sued from what you have now to what you might have had in the future...your barking up the wrong tree with President Trump, but your dumb enough, beings as your a libtard to do just that...

Go ahead, we are popping pop corn now to watch your end everything in your life into flames and ashes and wind to blow those ashes into HELL!!!

Any plans for obama’s college records or college application?

I believe Republicans run the senate there but they are NY Republucans - in other words - worthless.

[upchuck]

See you in court :)

[AmusedBystander]

The only truly relevant question of a candidate would be whether they FILED their tax returns.

Since President Trump is under audit, it can be safely assumed that he DID file his return and that at the end of the audit he would have paid every penny that the government can lawfully collect.

Way down at the bottom of the ASS Press report:

The New York legislation would face better odds if not for the state Senate's odd partisan dynamics. The 63-seat chamber is now evenly split between Democrats and Republicans, with one vacant seat that's expected to go Democratic in an upcoming special election. But Republicans are in control thanks to the support of several Democrats, known as the Independent Democrats, who broke ranks with their party to empower the GOP.

The IDC supports the bill, according to spokeswoman Candice Giove, though Republicans can still block any effort to bring the bill to a vote.

If the Repubs can block the bill, so be it.

If I were a New Yorker, I'd be pissed that my legislature is wasting its time on this. High school. Partisan politics at its worst.

Next they will release how many pairs of socks he owns all important news to the left.

[Living Free in NH]

I think it’s pretty obvious that Trump isn’t going to take New York in 2020, so he could simply choose to not even bother to file there. FUNY!!!

[SandRat]

Something in my gut says this may be unconstitional, illegal and criminal, but I don’t know for sure.

[unixfox]

Surely we will be able to see ALL other NY politicians taxes as well?

What a bunch of pathetic losers.

[HarleyLady27]

[lastchance]

If this passes and WHEN it goes to court this type of skullduggery is a perfect example of when “intent” becomes an issue before the court.

[jiggyboy]

It’s still a Bill of Attainder.

[EinNYC]

Well, it's not like the NY Senate has anything truly useful to do, so they have to make up work to justify their miserable (and I mean miserable) existence. They are are busy trying to run NY as a sanctuary state and redistribute taxpayer money to illegal criminals, cut the pensions of people who worked for decades and who depend on those pensions, and otherwise degrade the life of NYers.

Going after Trump would firmly rest in the column of degrading peoples' lives. We finally have a president who seems genuinely interested in protecting and nurturing America, and these anal orifices are doing everything they can think of with their puny infantile minds to put roadblocks in his way.

[MGunny]

How about these nitwit politicians in my home state get a plan together to get rid of this MS 13 problem on Long Island . I was a cop for 24 years and never had any use for these morons!!!!.. Yea, great job!!!. Going after President Trump tax returns!!!!! This is why we need a second revolution!

[Steve_Seattle]

A bill clearly targeting one person - even if the language is supposedly neutral - should have a hard time getting past the “equal protection” and “bill of attainder” clauses.

[WMarshal]

The power to tax is the power to destroy and the income tax give the Feds the power to destroy American taxpayers. The income tax has to die because it has turned every American into a plantation slave.

Violating confidentiality. They are committing a crime, even if they pass a law to allow it. Any such law is invalid on its face and not binding.
