Equal protection under the law SHOULD be balanced out with equal jeopardy under the law.
Otherwise, our decline into a banana republic (at best) is all but assured
Is this not a crime?
(taxpayer info is supposed to be protected by law)
Voters seek VENGEANCE on those that committed ELECTION FRAUD during the 2020 election
I want people in JAIL
All elected officials should release them.
Most people could care less about his tax returns.
A standard has been created... They may not like it, but the release of Trump’s taxes means that Clinton’s taxes, Bush’s taxes, Obama’s taxes and the taxes of all current and former politicians’ should be open and available for the public to review.
Time will tell...
Many voters realize the precedence this un-constituted committee set.
President Trump donated his Presidential salary to various agencies and causes and yet the Democrats are still going after him for his taxes. He didn’t do anything wrong with his taxes, his accountants just followed the law and got every deduction he could take which is legal, and so he didn’t pay millions and millions like the uninformed crowd thinks he should pay. Nothing illegal, nothing to see there.
They’re not after Trump, they’re after you. Trumps in the way.
A lot of Repukes to take revenge on as well.
start with pelosi
The average voter doesn’t even know this happened.
Maybe *EVERY* elected and appointed public official should be required to release their taxes, AND have themselves and all immediate family members audited in depth every year. Civil service (hired through normal channels) usually have their salary and benefits disclosed.
Any politician with a higher net worth anytime after taking office should be identified and given the full in-depth proctological treatment.
Democrat, Republican, Independent; we should trust NO ONE.
I’d rather voters seek revenge on all ComDems for turning the USA communist and making the FBI into the KGB. But that, alas, seems to not be in the cards.
And this helps the House write legislation how???
A judge needs to slap a court order on these jerks and have them explain why they lied to ‘the court.’
But it will be a nothing burger. The media will pick out “TRUMP DIDN’T PAY ANY TAXES” like they did with the leaked taxes that ugly man on MSNBC was so giddy about. “TRUMP ONLY PAID $500 in taxes.” (leaving out the fact he over paid by millions the year before)
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
“If the tax be not proposed for the common defence, or general welfare, but for other objects, wholly extraneous, (as for instance, for propagating Mahometanism among the Turks, or giving aids and subsidies to a foreign nation, to build palaces for its kings, or erect monuments to its heroes,) it would be wholly indefensible upon constitutional principles [emphases added].” — Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2 (1833).
“Cherish, therefore, the spirit of our people, and keep alive their attention. If once they become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, judges and governors, shall all become wolves [emphasis added]. It seems to be the law of our general nature.” - Thomas Jefferson (Letter to Edward Carrington January 16, 1787)
Unconstitutional federal taxes according to the excerpt from Gibbons v. Ogden above, arguably stolen state revenues, including money from citizens' wallets, are those taxes which the corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Congress cannot reasonably justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited power and other constitutionally enumerated expenses.
The bottom line is that ALL the states desperately need to effectively "secede" from the unconstitutionally big federal government by repealing the 16th (direct taxes) and 17th (popular voting for federal senators) Amendments (16&17A).
If the repeal 16&17A amendment was strictly limited to that purpose, then relatively little or ideally no discussion would be needed before ratification imo.
Why not demand Biden’s taxes? Surely, the Big Guy has receipts for all his assets? He should prove how he got rich legally on a Public servant’s salary.
