Trump encourages supporters to dismiss news about his taxes
After a rant attacking Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), former President Donald Trump told his supporters that they should ignore news about his taxes.
It's been mere weeks since Trump's companies were found guilty of 17 counts of fraud, and his longtime accountant is headed to prison. Congress has fought for years to get ahold of Trump's business information as part of the House Reform and Oversight's investigation into any possible emoluments violations. They've been given documents from the Trump Org. hotel in Washington, D.C., that revealed some of the profits the president scored from foreign governments on and around major points in policy moves by the White House.
The tax information requested in this case, however, is part of a probe by the House Ways and Means Committee. In their Tuesday meeting, the committee will vote on whether to make the six years of tax records public, as an act of transparency.
“Nearly four years ago, the Ways and Means Committee set out to fulfill our legislative and oversight responsibilities, and evaluate the Internal Revenue Service’s mandatory audit program,” said Rep. Richard Neal (D-MA) in a statement. “As affirmed by the Supreme Court, the law was on our side, and on Tuesday, I will update the members of the committee.”
