You know what I found in my mailbox today? I found out my tax return was rejected because I didn't know the difference between "adjusted gross income" and "taxable income". So I gotta wait an extra month to get my $165 bucks. Fuckin' Trump! Fuckin' Bush! Not fuckin' Obama! That last one was just to piss off the right.Maybe page 3 and 4 will be found in the mailbox tomorrow...
"The Russians?"
So leaks are good only when it hurts your political opponent.
Leaks aren't always illegal. Sometimes, whistleblowers aren't breaking the law, just loyalty.
The left has condemned WikiLeaks and Snowden because they hurt the Dems. Charges can and will be filed on Snowden if he ever leaves his safe space.
Maddow would be in violation of the law for hacking the IRS, which is likely the only way to get the returns. Serious stuff, for sure.
She didn't hack the IRS. Someone mailed the pages to someone else. She did nothing wrong, nor did NBC.
It's exactly the same for reporters as it is for you and I. Woodward and Bernstein weren't receiving documents that it was illegal for them to have.
Wrong, possession of stolen financial documents is a felony. Releasing the documents without written signed authorization is a Felony, ask the people who work in your doctors office about personal documents, apparently a kindergartner knows more than you do about it. Maybe you would like the fact that you had the crabs and the clap released to all of your potential sex partners.
NO. I showed you the law for reporters. It isn't the same as it is for you and I.
Easy question, did Woodward and Bernstein go to jail? NO, they didn't. Stop before you keep making a fool of yourself. Just go and do a Google search for Reporter's privilege and Journalistic Shield Laws. You have no clue what the **** you are talking about. Hell if you watched the show they even explained it to you. It would have only been illegal if they had asked someone to steal the information and give it to them, and they didn't.
How'd your prediction of him not paying "any federal taxes" turn out?
Thank you Rachel Madcow for demonstrating to the country just how ******* idiotic the left is.
We don't know and don't care. This is a 2005 1040 form only. It's 12 years old and it means NADA. I don't give a rats ass what he made or how much he paid in taxes. That's not the POINT of Presidential Candidates releasing their returns over the last 40 years.
"Never in American history has a president-elect presented more conflict of interest questions and foreign entanglements than Donald Trump. Given the vast and global scope of Trump’s business interests, many of which remain shrouded in secrecy, we cannot predict the full gamut of legal and constitutional challenges that lie ahead. But one violation, of constitutional magnitude, will run from the instant that Mr. Trump swears he will “faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” While holding office, Mr. Trump will receive—by virtue of his continued interest in the Trump Organization and his stake in hundreds of other entities—a steady stream of monetary and other benefits from foreign powers and their agents."
The Emoluments Clause: Its text, meaning, and application to Donald J. Trump | Brookings Institution
Article I, Section 9 of the Constitution provides as follows: “No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”
This is why for the last 40 years all Presidential CANDIDATES turned over their income tax returns (without argument.) Trump is the ONLY President in the last 40 years that refused to turn over his. In fact, Hillary Clinton told you this during one of the debates. The importance of releasing income tax returns was not how much they made, or how much they paid in taxes, it was to see if there were any foreign conflicts of interest.
This is an impeachable offense. Again, if Republicans won't do it, be assured Democrats will in 2018.

Speaking of Turkey, General Flynn just disclosed he's a paid lobbyist for them.
Questions abound over Flynn lobbying for Turkey
It just never stops does it?

No, how much he paid was not the point. The actual point was for some red meat that the partisans can drool over without cause and point to Trump as some horrific monster. It was, when they were hidden, that he had not paid taxes in 18 years. Noe that has been ripped away as the bullshit that it was and there apparently was nothing in those taxes that the left can latch onto they dont matter at all. You want more so you can find that golden nugget and demand answers.
Why do you think that he will not release them? He knows that there is noting to gain - no matter what is in them the left will look for something to beat him with and there is noting there for his supporters.
Who do you think released it and why? Best guess?
