Well, for two days now, the only conversation I've been having in this thread is surrounding Trump and his tax returns.

I know you're always bouncing all over the place and talking about whatever the hell you want. I'll leave you to it if we're not talking about his tax returns anymore. Enjoy.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Trump has cheated on his taxes. He has used every excuse not to do what every President does, share his tax returns. Every excuse but one: "I don't want to be caught cheating. Is that such a big crime?"

For several years, Trump reported larger losses than any other person in the United States. And in 1990 and 1991, Trump’s reported losses were double the losses that anyone else reported to the IRS. It’s certainly possible that Trump and his team of lawyers and accountants were simply a lot more clever than anyone else working in the tax field. But it’s also possible nobody else was claiming losses on this scale because there was no actual legal way to do so, and Trump just happened to get away with it.

The statute of limitations has expired.

Some shrewd people noticed, however, that there is no statute of limitations on judicial ethics investigations and filed a complaint against Trump’s sister Maryanne, who until recently was a federal appeals court judge. This would have launched an investigation of her that could, were she found guilty of wrongdoing, have implicated the president as well. But she cut the investigation short by retiring as soon as court officials announced that they were going to look into the complaint.

The Trump family has thus seemingly avoided legal accountability for the scam simply because this went down almost 30 years ago. But it raises the possibility that Trump is trying to keep his more recent returns hidden for the slightly banal reason that he’s been getting away with cheating on his taxes and doesn’t think his returns can bear public scrutiny.

I can't use Trump's tax returns to prove it, but Trump gave circumstantial evidence that he did cheat:

ongress-irs


The Democratic chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee on Friday issued subpoenas to Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig for six years of President Trump’s personal and business tax returns.

ps-tax-returns



The Ways and Means Committee won't be publicizing Trump's return. They are only looking for recent tax evasion. Trump and his sister have been caught cheating in the distant past. Have they recently stopped? No one can tell without the tax returns. Trump ordered the IRS to not release the tax returns. The reason the IRS gave for denying the request is fatuous. Mnuchin said that it lacked a “legitimate legislative purpose.” But that is the Committee's purpose. The Committee is looking for tax evasion so that they can decide for the need to write a law requiring future Presidential Candidates to reveal their tax returns. If Trump didn't evade taxes, there is no need to pass a new law and no need for Trump to keep his returns a secret from the Committee.

Two hours later, I realized that 6ix and Trump voters in general have impractical ideas about "proof" and law enforcement. Here is an extremely garish case where the privacy of a man in a wealthy neighborhood was invaded without "proof", only a tip. I will give you a tip: Trump has cheated on his taxes. It is time to kick down his front door and get the proof.

www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-saenz-arrest-gun-investigation-20
190509-story.html


“This is a big stash,” Ramirez told reporters at the scene. “It’s beyond comprehension that somebody can have so many weapons in a residence like this, in a neighborhood like this.”

Authorities launched the investigation into the cache after they received an anonymous tip about a person manufacturing and selling guns at the Bel-Air home.

The ATF said in a statement that its agents searched the house after discovering Saenz was illegally selling firearms outside the scope of the federal license he possesses. Law enforcement has not specified how any weapon sales were conducted.

Maybe Trump didn't cheat on taxes in the last 6 years. But who knows until you kick down his front door and look for proof? The Ways and Means Committee does have the law on their side against Trump and his secret tax returns kept safe behind a locked door. It is a door the Ways and Means Committee ought to force open. Maybe they will, but Trump will be on the other side, holding the door closed with all his strength like he has something to be ashamed of.

Gun dealers can overlook the correct paperwork and run afoul of the law. Sometimes sensational search warrants with piles of guns often end up without charges. Maybe that is what happened to Trump and his taxes. Maybe not.

Art installations blast audio of sobbing, detained children across New York City

It is a pop-up art installation of the most dystopian kind: Small kids curled up underneath foil survival blankets in chain-link cages, with audio of crying detained children wailing through speakers, dropped onto sidewalks throughout New York City.

Yeah. Because that's what the already highly agitated people need to be seeing and hearing on their daily commute to work.

What the hashtag should say is #ComingToASanctuaryCityNearYou
