What is the justification for getting tax returns from BEFORE Trump was elected President? This is a FISHING expedition to try and find something, anything, or they'll just make shit up. This is also a big time loss for EVERY President that comes after him. Eternal vigilance Is the price of liberty. Speak out and be heard. Be seen and get noticed. Stand up and be counted. Cherish freedom. |

User ID: 75746040 United States 07/09/2020 10:41 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The ruling has immediate implications for Trump, who must face the voters in just four months – and now must prepare to contend with explosive reports about his sprawling business empire, multiple bankruptcies, and whatever else may emerge from the materials. The case are Trump v. Deutsch Bank, AG and Trump v. Vance, named for New York District Attorney Cy Vance, who also hit the institutions with subpoenas for Trump tax information. He is probing whether Stormy Daniels was paid hush money. [link to www.dailymail.co.uk (secure)] |

That principle applies, of course, to a President.” [link to twitter.com (secure)] Chief Justice Roberts writes for the Court: “We agree that Presidents are neither absolutely immune from state criminal subpoenas nor insulated by a heightened need standard. We agree that Presidents may challenge specific subpoenas as impeding their Article II functions.” [link to twitter.com (secure)] |

User ID: 79028215 United States 07/09/2020 10:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I like Trump but I think he is hiding something. If he wasn't hiding anything then why go through so much to keep his taxes sealed? Something fuckidy. Quoting: ambermink Because the responder thinks Trump may be hiding something, Trump needs to go to jail! LMAO. Right. Because there is no expectation of privacy when you become President, right? Because guys like Obama didn't do anything to hide their ENTIRE life and spend MILLIONS to do so having their records sealed? Congress can ONLY provide 'oversight' to Trump's activity as PRESIDENT, not when he was a private citizen. Congress has NO law enforcement power. NONE. They have NO investigative authority with regard to any alleged "criminal" activity. We have three EQUAL branches of government. Can the President investigate members of CONgress? Can the President investigate members of the Judicial branch? Eternal vigilance Is the price of liberty. Speak out and be heard. Be seen and get noticed. Stand up and be counted. Cherish freedom. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 78551315 United States 07/09/2020 10:46 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | House Democrats DENIED Trump's Tax Returns! Corrupt NY District Attorney granted the tax records for the grand jury ONLY UNDER SEAL. The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled in a 7-2 decision that a New York Grand Jury can have President Trump's tax records, after Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance, Jr. subpoenaed eight years of returns along with other records in connection with an investigation into hush money payments made to porn star Stormy Daniels, according to Axios. Manhattan DA Vance Jr. (whose father was Jimmy Carter's Secretary of State - and who took money from Harvey Weinstein while declining to prosecute him for sexual assault - and who sought a reduced sex-offender status for Jeffrey Epstein) wants to see if Trump's reimbursement of former attorney Michael Cohen for payments to Daniels and another woman violated any laws in New York, and whether Trump's accounting firm falsely accounted for the reimbursements as a legal expense. [link to www.zerohedge.com (secure)] So the corrupt pedo-loving Demonrat DA that supported Harvey Weinstain and supported Jeffrey Epstain was allowed to have copies of the tax returns FOR GRAND JURY USE (under seal) ONLY IN THE CASE OF STORMY DANIELS. It's fucking hilarious watching these pedo-loving Demonrats pinning their hopes and dreams on whether Trump paid someone money to be quiet about having sex. That's all these braindead hive-mind fools have! |

What I want to see is the tax returns of politicians AFTER they've been in office. Like Obama's, Biden's, Pelosi's and Newsome's.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78674431 While they're at it, release all of Obama's College Records, that's what I want to see..... how Names, SS#, and loans did he receive without breaking any laws? The Supreme Court just opened the door for that to happen. If it shows Obama was a foreign student his entire Presidency becomes null and void. Every law he passed and every Executive Order is wiped out. Also his SCOTUS picks would also be eliminated. Everything he did. Because he would have been Constitutionally ineligible to hold office. And it means he can't seal records indicating wrongdoing by his administration. |

It would have been leaked, and weaponized against him already. That doesn't mean they won't make some loose connections up and stomp their feet until Nov. I'd rather be real and rejected than fake and accepted. Individualism is the logical conclusion of rational political/social opinions. Leftism is the absence of any. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 37711225 United States 07/09/2020 10:51 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I will tell you exactly what he is hiding. He had business losses, in particular in Atlantic City. The law allows you to use those losses to offset future income for a long period of time. It is called, loss carry forward. (I am in this same position. My yearly earnings are actually negative on my tax returns and have been for several year now.) Trumps income could actually be (likely are) negative and thus he likely hasn't been paying much tax recently because of it. 100% legal and it is what all business people do. But one could easily see how it could be turned into political cannon fodder. Further, since he is a business man involved in tons of different businesses, his tax return is a few thousand pages. No ordinary person will be able to understand them at all. Again, a lot of political hay can be made by ignorant people, on both political sides. Trumps returns are continually be looked at by banks providing his company loans. He has been high profile for decades. I am sure he was audited by the State and the IRS often. (I personally as a low level business guy got audited on average every three years.) I do not believe that any problems with them will be found. Again just political ammunition. |

Good lord, there goes Oklahoma. I KNEW Gorsuch was a bad pick, I said so from Day 1. Stealth liberal like Roberts. Probably compromised. I bet Kavanaugh is too but they probably take turns playing the "liberal" or "conservative" in rulings. NEITHER is a real conservative but establishment types. The problem we've had right along is TRUMP's ADVISORS. His ADVISORS are NOT conservatives and DO NOT SUPPORT HIS AGENDA. Most of them are RINOs, anti-Trumpers, Never Trumpers, Swamp Things, etc. After 4 years Trump should be much further along in fighting these CLOWNS but he never really started because his "advisors" have held him back. And so....we end up here with this GROSS violation of privacy. ARE BIDEN'S TAXES GOING TO BE MADE PUBLIC? |

In the Demonrat hive-mind community they don't think that way. In their hive-minds, if everyone is doing it, you must do it also....there is no choice or freedom. This philosophy alleviates them of the burden of being accountable for their decisions and stops them from pre-maturely melting their brains when they try to think on their own. |

User ID: 73724632 United States 07/09/2020 10:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As far as Trump's taxes go.....this IS a gross violation of his privacy and exposes material that should only be the province of the IRS to the public who cannot understand the finances involved in a billionaire's taxes. We can barely understand our own. So they will pick and choose anything to make him look bad. WILL JOE BIDEN'S TAXES BE MADE PUBLIC? Trump needs to turn on SCOTUS and see if there is any room for prosecutions there. And whether "Ginsberg" is actually still alive ....which I doubt, I think it's a double. |
