Discussion: Treasury Refuses To Turn Trump Tax Returns Over to Congress

[kirkbross]

Skip the subpoena and file the lawsuit now. Time is of the essence and we know the subpoena is just a months-long delay.

Treasury Refuses To Turn Trump Tax Returns Over to Congress

Done just like a perfect little Trump Munchkin.

[thecaptain]

Is this the part where democrats demand random working class dude on the internet save the democracy or else apparently nothing can be done. Oh yea, it’s that predictable part too.

[hoppy]

Unfortunately, laws don’t apply to Republicans, because they are on Earth to be the ruling class.

“Treasury Refuses To Turn Trump Tax Returns Over to Congress”

I sure hate to say it,but NOW WHAT ?

[hoppy]

Now we soon find out if the Democrats in Congress are truly ready for the major leagues. If not, we need to look for some more AOC candidates for 2020 election.

Can’t put up with this level of arrogance.

This asshole just oozes arrogance.

Thanks for not answering the question.

I read an article last week by Lieu(?) that made the case to not subpoena, but to go directly to a civil suit. His claim was the subpoena would muddy the waters, where the civil suit has enough litigated law that it should be a pretty quick slam dunk.

@bentonf

But for now, we need to hit 'em right between the eyes with a 2 x 4

Can’t we hit them a little lower? Pretty please?

Mnuchin is now clearly breaking the law.

I’d prefer a tragedy at their expense.

It is possible to have a tragic farce. But whatever the tone, I insist on an old-fashioned morality tale, where evil is vanquished and good prevails. (And in this case, I do not want the bad guy to have the option of coming back for a sequel.)

He hates that he has to associate with anyone.

Except his wife when they are rolling on sheets of money, of course.

[robb_ludwig]

Is he showing contempt or is it just his face?

I think it might be both.

@paul_lukasiak

I’d like to see someone like AOC go on the floor of the House and announce that any IRS employee who brings her Trump’s tax returns will be able to use her office for asylum. then go to the floor of the house, and enter them into the record…

Or perhaps China could hack, steal, and leak them from the IRS. If it’s listening, of course.

IMPEACH MNUCHIN NOW!!

NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW!!! I’m

I respectfully disagree with that characterization. Chuck was just borrowing Amy’s.

If your expectation is to have random people on the internet figure out the Democrats large scale political strategies then have fun while the GOP continues to walk all over the Dem party. That seems like a much bigger failure than some ‘grade’ you give out to randos on the internet.

Activist Treasury Secretaries are the worst! I just want someone who calls balls and strikes, like John Roberts. /s
