Democrats are racing to release information about former President Donald Trump's taxes before Republicans take control of Congress early next year.

Politico reported Friday that the House Ways and Means Committee will meet privately Tuesday at 3 p.m. to review the tax documents and vote on whether all or a portion of Trump's tax returns will be publicly released.

After a lengthy legal battle, House Ways and Means Committee Chair Richard Neal got his hands on Trump's tax returns in November....

...They consist of Trump's personal returns and returns from eight business entities, Politico said.

Democrats believe they're on solid legal footing to release the returns if the committee takes a vote....

Aren’t our dear leaders usually out of DC for the holidays this time of year?

Me too but find it unlikely.

I read The Rise And Fall Of The Third Reich many years ago, and one point that still sticks in my head today is how the Nazi government used judges to declare everything they did as ‘legal’.

Anything morally objectionable or flat out illegal, just get a judge to say otherwise, and problem solved! It’s now legal!

I don’t see how this Trump Tax Return thing is any different. They got the judges of the Supreme Court to just say Trump has no constitutional rights. Do whatever you want to Trump, it’s legal because we say so.

Adam Schitt already created the documents they will shove to the media, regardless of what the actual returns say

“What the h#ll do they think the tax returns will contain?“

They are,as usual, projecting. THEIR tax returns likely would embarrass them or actually get them indicted.

And since this is from the Daily Mail...

DM, how come no curiosity about whether Harry Markle is here on a visa that allows the Harkles to avoid paying US income taxes...?

They wouldn’t but they don’t care because their tax returns are all safe from any investigations. No Republican will go after the Democrats in any meaningful way.

Dems know they are getting a mulligan from the GOP to attack Trump and MAGA at their leisure.

If “Kevin” does not allow the seizure and publication of the tax returns for Nanzi Pelousy, ChuckU Schumer, and the rest of the charlatans in Congress then he must be relieved of his “speaker” post.

Trump gets audited every-year all year long by the IRS and if Harry Reid couldn’t find anything to leak there’s nothing

“ What a bunch of hooey. Trump has a myriad
of tax attorneys and accountants. Him,
being a huge target for tax fraud
alligation, would not risk losing his
fortune and possible jail time.”

You are missing the point. My elderly mother in law told me “Trump hasn’t paid taxes in 20 years”. That’s repeating media gaslighting about a real estate loss carry forward that was 100% legit.

They want to twist the truth for gullible people who don’t understand the tax code.

The Dems need to realize that this is a 2 Way St. I would think that Clinton and Obama would be against releasing trumps tax returns, not because they believe in fair play, but because they understand that they could have their private information released as well, and probably don’t want it to be released.

Also, if the Dems do decide to do this, the Republicans had b
*BETTER* release, everything that is available on both Clinton and Obama. The Dems need to feel the pain of the crap they pull all the time so that maybe they will think twice about doing more stuff that is indecent, just because they can.
