BREAKING...Maddow: we've got Trump's tax returns!

[froggy]

Well at least we have a president that is not a politician maybe he will get something done while the politicians carry on their childish behavior

 

[Iceweasel]

Is that what we learned? Really?

I'm thinking we learned there's no level of insane the left will not go to over anything Trump. And then we learned that even if you paid 38 million in taxes that isn't enough for the left. They still want more.

Pres Trump and his Trumpettes cry too much...everything is UNFAIR for the special snowflakes.

You right wingers sure could dish it out the past 8 years, but are whiny little whimps when it comes to your precious Magog....what's up with that?

What's up with it is called seeing what you want to see and not seeing what you do not want to see. You lefties are still screaming bloody murder and you think it's going to be covered up with your projection?

WHO is screaming bloody murder??? near all the threads on this tax release are all started by CONsevatives?

It's great that the multi billionaire Trump paid federal income taxes in the year 2005! BRAVO for him!!!

there, ya happy now? or do you think we should all bow down and kiss his feet, or wash them with our tears and wipe them off with our hair?

What was the point in demanding they be released then? just something to whine about until they were? I wish he would have never released them...one less thing for the liberals to give themselves ulcers over...I want trump to ask russia to release the e-mails again

so we know of any foreign financial involvements with Nations, Banks, Oligarchs etc,

Sunlight is nature's best disinfectant...

That was not the Clinton's policy. Or Obama's.

Obama Spent $36 Million Last Year To Fight FOIA Lawsuits
President Barack Obama’s administration spent a record $36 million to battle Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuits, contradicting his promise to be the most transparent administration in history.

During Obama’s last year in office, the administration spent $36 million to pay legal fees to avoid releasing information sought by FOIA requests, the Associated Press reported Tuesday.

More than half the money was spent fighting lawsuits against three agencies. The Department of Justice accounted for $12 million, the Department Homeland Security spent $6.3 million and the Department of Defense spent $4.8 million.

The number of FOIA lawsuits brought against the government increased significantly during Obama’s two terms. Individuals, journalists and advocacy groups filed 300 FOIA lawsuits in 2009. That number increased through almost every year of Obama’s presidency, and a total of 512 lawsuits were filed in 2016, according to the FOIA Project.

A 2016 Government Accountability Office report shows that from 2009 to 2014, the administration spent $144 million for all of the FOIA lawsuits that government agencies and departments defended.

The increase in costs of FOIA lawsuits corresponds to the increase in legal battles brought against the government. For the past several years, the Obama administration set new records for the number of FOIA lawsuits.

What were you demanding Obama do after fifty days in office?
The fucking DEMs are doing everything possible to delay President Trump's administration from being fully staffed. Do you believe this is the right thing to do while at the same time demanding President Trump "do something!'?

Trump has neglected hiring 1000 staff members that require no congressional approval whatsoever. Nobody is stopping him. He's just too lazy to do it.

Or maybe he realizes that those thousand government jobs are unnecessary and a drain on taxpaying citizens.

Now was that his own money? Or taxpayer money?

"Most transparent administration" Such a lie that was.

Grrrr.

 

[BULLDOG]

I don't know eiither is guilty of a crime in that scenario, just that it is another left wing response to a point that wasn't made as opposed to the one that was made...do you think trump openly asking putin to "hack" into clintons server is as big a lie as the whopper Maddow told?...see how your analogy doesn't fit the point being made? right or wrong, the trump claim is not about lying, which I suspect is why you used it instead of trying to defend the indefensible Maddow lie

Trump asked the Russians to hack into HIllarys email server and find the 30.000 deleted emails. Whether Tump knew that was possible or not, isn't the question. The solicitation is the crime. Akin to inciding a riot, and when the mayhem breaks, pretending you had nothing to do with it.

I don't doubt that Trump searched his tax returns to find the one that made him look the best, and secretly mailed it himself. One return doesn't answer the question of why he is afraid to release all the others.

What it did was leave you fascists standing with egg on your face.

Like the "Russian hack " idiocy there will be the fringe who throw fits from now to Jan 20. 2025; but just like the other conspiracy nuts, your accomplishment will be only to further discredit yourselves and your failing party.

This yet another reason that the next democrat president hasn't been born yet.

Again, a tiny portion of his tax returns is not his tax returns.

 

[Uncensored2008]

Well, you run with that and see how it works out for your filthy party.

 

[BULLDOG]

The small part of his returns is all we have so far, and important because it shows he is vulnerable. I wouldn't be surprised if Wikileaks has the entire set of returns, and will release them later.

The return we have shows that Trump paid a higher percent of his income than Madcow or any of the DNC Fascists do. Trump paid 25.6% - Peoples hero Bernie (Mao) Sanders paid 14%

{
The deductions left Sanders and his wife paying $27,653 in federal income taxes in 2014, on a joint income of $205,271 — an effective federal tax rate of 13.5 percent. If that seems low to you, your instincts are right: According to the Tax Foundation, the average federal income-tax rate for a couple making $200,000 to $500,000 in 2014 was 15.2 percent. The “millionaires and billionaires” that Sanders is so fond of berating payed, on average, just more than twice as much of their income (27.4 percent) in federal taxes as he did.

This was PRICELESS.....

Trump just keeps beating your asses and you guys just keep coming back for more, it's priceless entertainment.

His healthcare plan is DOA, his Muslim ban has been shut down again, his budget proposal is DOA, the Republican Senate Intelligence Committee chairman just said Trump's claims that Obama wiretapped him were just more bullshit, and he has tiny hands. Trump has to have rallys that are closed to all but his staunch supporters to get his required ego boost, any you think he's winning? That's funny.

Boohoo on the tax returns get over it.

 

[BULLDOG]

No. One return from 12 years ago is not what is needed. He needs to quit spending his time making up shit like his claim that Obama tapped him, and act like a grownup.

What you "need" is something that harms the object of your obsessive hatred. YOU thought Madcow would deliver, but instead she/it got played like a cheap kazoo.

The small part of his returns is all we have so far, and important because it shows he is vulnerable. I wouldn't be surprised if Wikileaks has the entire set of returns, and will release them later.

Illegally, of course.

As legal as every other piece of paper they released.

Good for him. Just because he isn't hiring people to do things doesn't mean it doesn't get done. It just means that people that don't like him are doing it, and he's silly if he thinks those people won't leak things he doesn't want leaked.

HUh? THAT was Clinton's policy and you can also thank president Clinton for releasing government information faster than it ever was released...President Clinton changed the rules so govt agencies were on a systematic schedule of releasing govt classified documents to the public among many other things to make our govt more transparent.

Hillary Clinton asked the govt to RELEASE ALL of her emails, instead they played games of this is classified and that is classified and all the outrage for 27 of her emails being super duper classified info and Judicial watch and the AP sued for them, and the govt would not budge, all the while Hillary Clinton kept saying release them release them....but noooooooooooooooo, and now less than 6 months after the election, ALL OF THOSE 27 super duper TOP SECRET CLASSIFIED HAVE BEEN DECLASSIFIED but 4 of them...does anyone even care what was in them or want to know why they were classified secret in the first place or does any media follow up on it and tell the public that they were all declassified since, NO OF COURSE NOT....who cares now...the election is over? sheesh...

Also, all your article shows is that mostly right wing entities, sued the Obama admin for every thing under the sun, but DID NOT do so with Bush....and have not done so with Trump, so far.

No. One return from 12 years ago is not what is needed. He needs to quit spending his time making up shit like his claim that Obama tapped him, and act like a grownup.

It's not even a complete return - all the most important information is missing, the schedules & attachments that show where he gets his money and who he owes.

He should turn over 40 years of returns just like Clinton did. What's he afraid of?

Thanks! So in July 2016, he asked if Russia could find the 30,000 emails Hillary deleted.



March 27, 2015 -- Rep. Trey Gowdy makes the statement, "Secretary Clinton unilaterally decided to wipe her server clean and permanently delete all emails from her personal server."

July 7, 2015 -- CNN's Brianna Keilar has an exclusive interview with Clinton. In response to being asked about deleting 33,000 emails while under investigation by a House panel, Clinton says other secretaries of state had done the same thing. Clinton also says she was never subpoenaed by the House.

August 11, 2015 -- Clinton agrees to turn over her private email server and a thumb-drive backup to authorities.

Timeline of Hillary Clinton's email scandal - CNNPolitics.com

Nearly a year after the US authorities had her server. More than a year after she had her server wiped.
Was he asking them to steal it from the CIA like Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible?

Now she's got 'Obama-itis', trying to blame everyone else becaue SHE over-hyped the disaster that blew up in her face.

Good-news / bad-news for her:
- Good News: The show was a ratings blowout

- Bad News: A record number of people watched her credibility crash and burn
