Rep. Kevin Brady (R-Texas) called on Monday for a probe into the sources of The New York Times story that detailed up to nearly two decades of President Trump's tax documents and business dealings.
Brady, the head Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee, released a statement on the Times report that published on Sunday, saying a “felony crime was committed” by giving Trump’s tax information to the newspaper.
"While many critics question the article’s accuracy, equally troubling is the prospect that a felony crime was committed by releasing the private tax return information of an individual - in this case the President’s,” he said.
“To ensure every American is protected against the illegal release of their tax returns for political reasons, I am calling for an investigation of the source and to prosecute if the law was broken,” he added.

I'm glad someone is asking the question.
How come we don’t get leaks from the Durham investigation that could help Trump?
Because Durham plays for the other team.
Lol
That’s what I want to know!!! Why do libs get to commit criminal acts time after time ?
Isn’t there some law against obtaining someone else’s financial data without their permission?
Good for Brady.
I don’t expect much to come out of his ‘calling for a probe of source’ of NYT tax hit piece, thought.
Trump released fake returns to set them up.
I’m sure Lois Lerner would know...she’s walking free somewhere.
Which district is conducting the investigation into Trump’s taxes and business dealings?
SDNY.
The U.S. Attorney in the SDNY has it out for Trump, and she no doubt had something to do with it. She’s working for the democrats, and she and democrats and the liberal media, will do anything to harm Trump in the final days until the election.
Is the rest of the GOP on vacation or something?
This is some of the most fake news I've seen on The Hill. Brady didn't say a crime was committed.
"... the prospect that a felony crime was committed..."
"...I am calling for an investigation of the source and to prosecute if the law was broken..."
That would be amazing if true. Are you just speculating or do you have info?
That would be an awesome move.
figure up what Trump does not take in salary for 4 years.. figure what he saved the gov always “under budget”.
and ask biden if they paid taxes on china money.. on ukraine money.
Why are legislators calling for probes? How about they legislate the removal of legislation for a while? Like five decades worth. “Burn it down” as it were.
Oh no, not an investigation!!. the dems are shaking in their loafers now... Please, no more 800 an hr attorneys doing more investigations.
Media sources are confidential.
