Can you or anyone help me find where it says they are entitled to them by law ? The IRS has them and has audited them yet no criminal referrals ? That's strange maybe Maxine Watters will set everyone straight !

They aren't. My understanding is that it takes a signature from the releasee in order for the IRS to release anything. By law, that legislative wrote up.

If there is an ongoing investigation, yes they can get them with a court order.
You love making stuff up dont you ... what Government agency do you work for ? (Rhetorical Question) I provided links below you need to read it. The IRS would have to provide a criminal referral to the DOJ or he would have to authorize it. You must teach 101 level classes ? Maybe you should stick with Orange man bad !

Maybe a dedicated IRS #resist member will leak them so they can be fired, lose their pension, and then arrested, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees ? You could hold onto that hope ! [pfftt]

This guy has been on the board about 2 weeks and already recognizes what a fool and bureaucratic drone Cunty is. That’s hilarious.

Sure. It's 26 USC 6103(f). Glad I could help.

Thanks for that:

(f) Disclosure to Committees of Congress
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.

Good luck with that.

LOL!

No problem. You can also check paragraph 5 of 26 USC 6103(f) for fun too.

1. Presidents are not required by law to give us their taxes. If you read the Federal Statute you wont find it in a law anywhere.
2. First paragraph in link I provided explains process if Trumps taxes are criminal of what would happen. The Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division conducts criminal investigations regarding alleged violations of the Internal Revenue Code, the Bank Secrecy Act and various money laundering statutes. The findings of these investigations are referred to the Department of Justice for recommended prosecution.
https://www.irs.gov/compliance/criminal-investigation/how-criminal-investigations-are-initiated
3. Now Google Congressional Oversight Manual ... key words are Jurisdiction of authority. You will find the Congress has authority of oversight of the IRS but not Trumps Taxes that would be go back to 2.

I just showed you the statute. The tax returns can't be made public, but must be turned over to the Committee on Ways and Means.

It's mind boggling. :joy::joy::joy::joy:
It is easily one of the easiest codes to decipher. Team MAGA conservatives are all in for a monarch ruler this morning.

Right, that defeats the purpose to trash Trump. I kind of like paragraph g-1 though:

(g)Disclosure to President and certain other persons
Secretary shall furnish to the President, or to such employee or employees of the White House Office as the President may designate by name in such request, a return or return information with respect to any taxpayer named in such request. Any such request shall state—
taxpayer
whose return or return information is to be disclosed,
return or return information which is to be disclosed,
taxable period or periods covered by such return or return information, and
inspection or disclosure is requested.

He can obtain their's.

Indeed. So why all the whining and crying? It's called checks and balances. JFC

lol. The law doesn't mean what it says it means?

1. Thats why we have Lawyers and Judges so when Meth heads like you try to misinterpret it for personal gain you can be set straight !
2. Now back to my main point if Trumps Taxes shows anything illegal the following steps in the link would be followed.
https://www.irs.gov/compliance/criminal-investigation/how-criminal-investigations-are-initiated
3. Your desperation of maybe Trump taxes might show he is only worth 1.8 billion instead of 3.8 billion is not going to get you any closer to getting to use them as a political weapon.
4. In fairness I personally would like to see them along with all the Clinton Foundation Financials.
5. Orange man bad !
6. You let me know when Auntie Maxine gets a hold of them ?

Congress also has investigative and prosecutorial powers. You seem to get bent out of shape and slightly change the subjects. Very similar to a certain previously owned truck salesman.

Owned? lmao. JFC. People can't read anymore.


I do appreciate the Jonas chef kiss gif tho.

The only people who think you are not getting owned is moe and bru. LOL That says enough even without the chefs kiss.

Getting owned by legal beagles THE and ATL Jr? lol. Oh noes!!!!

ATL hasn't even posted in this thread. Now you are just flailing lol. Thank God you have constitutional scholars like moe and bru giving you strong legal advice. The inclusion of African-American White Male countryroads89 is certainly a game changer.

Their prosecution powers are limited to they can make a referral to the Department of Justice. (Mr Barr says Hi.) I 'm not bent out of shape I am blown away by your inability to read left to right top to bottom. Their investigative powers are also limited to the items in the manual The one I posted and you didnt read. For situational awareness purpose others who read the board will read the links provided and probably come to the same conclusion that You and Auntie Maxine are not getting a copy of Trumps taxes.
Orange man bad !

I can read. You asked for the law. I sent you the code section. You appear to be the one struggling with the reading and the comprehending aspect. After that you started flailing around everywhere else on nonsense.

Ole staunch conservative Bill Kristol Coop has a history of being wrong. He's still ultra mad over 2016.

He's a POS and I can't wait to laugh at him and his supporters on election night. Kansas is closer in the polls than PA. LOL. Blowout.
WVUCOOPER said:
I think that's what Kasich thinks, but I think he's delusional. We're going to nominate the most un-electable candidate in the history of the Electoral College. Either Trump or Cruz.
WVUCOOPER said:
Trump and Cruz are the only 2 in this whole process I wouldn't vote for over Clinton. Trump is going to get hammered. More interested in how the down ticket elections go.
WVUCOOPER said:
I disagree. Numbers will win this election. Demographics are changing and hurting the GOP. Now with Trump, they are sprinting away from those numbers. Good luck hanging on to the Senate and House.
WVUCOOPER said:
Look, I'm all for it. I hope he gets his x% and the party gets public money and lay the foundations of a viable 3rd party, but let's be serious - He's not winning the election and the best I can hope for is Trump and his legion of morons to get humiliated and exposed.
WVUCOOPER said:
No it's not. It's giving the election to something worse - Donald Trump.
WVUCOOPER said:
I was laughing at you. You've lost it. I hope you make it back after the election.
WVUCOOPER said:
Pence will concede, Trump will dispute the results until death and his morons will believe him that the election is rigged.
WVUCOOPER said:
If the GOP can get their **** together and bury the Trump faction, I believe the Dems have 23 of the 33 Senators up for re-election. The GOP could/should hold healthy majorities in both chambers.
WVUCOOPER said:
I don't think an armed coup is the fear so much as de-legitimizing our President and election process.

You gave one example and misquoted what it means ... again read this
https://www.irs.gov/compliance/criminal-investigation/how-criminal-investigations-are-initiated
Then understand that the only way your getting Trump on his Taxes is after he leaves office and that's even if there is anything illegal going on. On that note probably zero chance that while running for office the former administration made a call over to the IRS and asked "pls tell me you have something criminal to work with". Zero chance right ?
