WASHINGTON — House Republicans on Tuesday blocked another attempt by Democrats to obtain President Donald Trump's tax returns from the IRS.

House Democrats tried for a third time to use a procedural vote to pry loose Trump's returns. Republicans thwarted the effort, 228-190, on a mostly party-line vote.

The vote happened as the House Ways and Means Committee debated a similar motion to get Trump's tax returns. That effort was expected to fail as well.

When you post, heed the Stop Sign and look around.

Does anyone in their right mind think tax reform will be passed without a look at Trump taxes to see how it personally benefits him? There are some pretty dumb people around if they think this won't be a huge issue in the future.
