NYT publishes Trump tax returns
-
HEre's the law:
(f)Disclosure to Committees of Congress
(1)Committee on Ways and Means, Committee on Finance, and Joint Committee on Taxation
Upon written request from the chairman of the Committee on Ways and Means of the House of Representatives, the chairman of the Committee on Finance of the Senate, or the chairman of the Joint Committee on Taxation, the Secretary shall furnish such committee with any return or return information specified in such request, except that any return or return information which can be associated with, or otherwise identify, directly or indirectly, a particular taxpayer shall be furnished to such committee only when sitting in closed executive session unless such taxpayer otherwise consents in writing to such disclosure.Emphasis mine.
Seems that the committee is acting outside the word of the law in its release of the information. But then, the New York Times did it a long time ago and there was no prosecution.

Let me guess, Trump’s taxes confirm he is a loser much more than he’s a winner. Shall I list his bankrupt companies again? I haven’t seen anything yet but I’m pretty confident Trump’s best asset is his ability to communicate and fool others into think he’s more successful than he actually is.

@bachophile I looked over and under where I could find something close to being that outrageous. Came up short.

Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

Did he do anything illegal? If so, prosecute away.
If you're outraged, change the tax code.
I doubt that he was personally involved with these returns. This is how accountants make a living.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

@George-K said in NYT publishes Trump tax returns:

Is anyone going to be prosecuted for breaking Federal law in this case.

If the principal haven't done anything dubious to begin with, the accountant would have no raw material with which to craft questionable tax returns. After all, the accountant still make money when preparing 100% honest tax returns, with lower risks too.

If you're really innocent, you don't need a lawyer, and you certainly don't need the 5th amendment, right?

Now prosecute the House Ways and Means Committee for the same crime.

As I said way way way back when, there are probably two reasons President Trump did not want to release his tax return
he wasn't as smart a business man as he claimed and didn't make as much money
he didn't donate very much money to charityI think if they examine the returns, I think both will probably be true.

Could very well be true.
Neither reason is enough for breaking the law.
ETA, regarding #1, how many men have gotten POORER during their presidency, (at least in the last 50 years)?
