Republicans on Trump Tax Returns: Democrats ‘May Regret It Sooner Than They Think’
Breitbart ^ | 12/30/2022 | Joel B Pollack

Posted on 12/30/2022 12:27:52 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Republicans in the minority on the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee declared Friday that there had been “no legitimate legislative purpose” for the Democratic majority to release Donald Trump’s tax returns.

It was the first time Congress had ever obtained and released the federal tax returns of a private individual. Democrats claimed that they needed the returns as they considered future tax legislation. But the former president argued in court — to no avail — that Democrats were overstepping the separation of powers.

If only Republicans could be as ruthless and unyielding as the Democrats, instead of castrated, whiny, useless cucks..

And that, pretty much sums it up in a nutshell.

Interesting how the media points out when DJT didn’t pay taxes but leave out the part where he donated his presidential salary just like the Clintons, Obamas, Bidens, Pelosis . . .

GOP members of the Uniparty aren’t going to do anything. They are as dirty as their dim comrades. Trump wasn’t a member of their club, so this was okay in their book. There will be no pulling tax returns from anyone else.

It’s not intended for that. Now the sycophants in the media get to offer their opinions on the subject bringing in lawyers and accountants. But the kicker is Trump is a civilian. You cannot do this to Schumer.

I suggest that all members of Congress, White House staff, the heads of all Federal Agencies, all in the executive legislative and judiciary above a GS 14, all lobbyist on K street, have their tax returns made public. Oddly the K street proposal is very important.

It will not happen.

Nice additions.

Apparently AOC has become very wealthy in the short time she’s been in DC. It’d be nice to know how, if true.

As for Romney, didn’t even think of that POS.

“Release the returns over every member of the Biden family, every Democrat member of the House and Senate and every member of Biden’s cabinet. See how they like that.”

I would include the Republican members of the House and Senate as well.

Why do I get the feeling there is something in that omnibus mess that will prevent congress from doing it ever again. Schumer has pulled the football away several times.
