Default TRUMP T.O. Facing HUGE Taxbill After Refusing to Release Tax Returns For Years

House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-KY) Proposal Would Force Trump to Do Something He's Refused to Do For Years

--- Refusing to Release His Trump Oganisation and Other Tax Returns, With The Blessing of Republicans in Congress.


MSRAW 22 MAY 2024





According to the Wall Street Journal, the bill, also sponsored by Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA), "would force presidents and vice presidents to disclose their tax filings for the two years before entering the White House, for the years while in office, and for two years afterward"

And "compel them, along with close family members such as children, siblings and in-laws, to disclose payments from foreign entities as well as large gifts and loans from family members."


It remains unclear whether this bill, which Comer praises as "a good product" that resolves a "gray area" in ethics law, will gain traction in the House or pass the Senate. However, it is a surprising development after Donald Trump spent years refusing to release his tax returns

Comer has for months led an investigation to impeach President Joe Biden for allegedly laundering international bribes, although no evidence of this has turned up, even from the GOP committee members' own witnesses.

In recent weeks, Comer has floated the idea of quietly ending the impeachment inquiry with a simple criminal referral to the Justice Department rather than a vote on articles of impeachment, which would effectively end the matter.

The White House says “We’re always happy to look at Congressman Comer’s bright ideas,” but President Biden has already disclosed all relevant financial information.
