New York City prosecutors have subpoenaed President Donald Trump’s tax returns, a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press on Monday.
Manhattan District Attorney’s Cyrus Vance Jr.’s office recently sent a subpoena to Trump’s accounting firm seeking the last eight years of state and federal tax returns for Trump and his company, the Trump Organization, the person said.
The person was not authorized to speak publicly about the matter and spoke on the condition of anonymity.
Asked about the subpoena as he left the White House on Monday, Trump said: “I don’t know anything about it.” A lawyer for the Trump Organization, Marc Mukasey, said he is “evaluating the situation and will respond as appropriate.” …

Why should we be hanging our heads in shame?
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Sounds like a typical case of TFS
TFS?
Good luck on understanding them if they get them. A man like Trump hires the best accountants and tax lawyers available to avoid paying taxes. I doubt if Trump does anything other than make a cursory review, ask if the returns are within existing tax laws, and sign. Trump is interested in cash flow, not profit and taxation. That’s how wealth is built.
I’m not interested in debating. I read your questions as disingenuous.
Call your squad, form a circle, feel good.
Genuine: Thanks for your valuable contributions to this site.
A clarification on what was meant, is not a debate.
Ugh dang phone, sorry I meant TDS
Bump
Your counsel is appreciated but off base, so thanks anyway.
Hey DUmmy - a simple answer is not so hard.
Unless you don’t have one...
We are all still waiting...
Offbase? LOL. Nobody knows what the heck you are trying say, and we are off base?
You nailed it ‘Free. If that nOOb isn’t a DUmper, I haven’t seen one.
Two words. Pound sand

There is no crime unless you broke the payments up to avoid being detected, or you used campaign funds. Trump isn’t the type who personally conducts transfers or such himself....he has accountants to do the simple stuff. I also doubt you can find this linked to any campaign fund. So they are mostly fishing for something that would be illegal.
Now, what they might uncover if they dug real deep....there might be another ‘Stormy’ out there that hasn’t be identified yet. I’m taking the guess that this is their ultimate hope...a second Stormy.
Trump could hand monies to her personally,....it's still not a crime.
A Bill of Attainder targeted toward one person. Very Bad.
It opens fishing expeditions on all of us ultimately through our tax records.
The DemocRATS deserve what they are going to get at the Ballot Boxes from here on OUT!
Let me re-ask the question differently.
Did you mean to say that the Trump base should be ashamed because the left takes such actions without fear?
That is one interpretation of what you wrote, and the most benign. However, it does hint at extra-legal repercussions that should be coming from the base.
Because your original statement was ambiguous, you were asked what you meant. Apparently, that is problematic for you.
