A federal court ruled on Tuesday that House Democrats are legally allowed to seek Donald Trump's tax returns. 'The DC Court of Appeals has just ruled that the law is on our side in seeking Trump's tax returns,' the House Ways and Means Committee official Twitter account posted. 'We expect to receive the requested tax returns and audit files immediately.'

It's a major blow to Trump's years-long fight in the courts to keep his tax returns from any kind of probe.

Late last year, Trump-appointed District Judge Trevor McFadden ruled that the Treasury Department can turn the former president's financial documents to House investigators.

The House Ways and Means Committee first requested Trump's tax returns from the Internal Revenue Service in the first half of 2019, months after Democrats took back control of the lower chamber in Congress.

Tuesday's ruling comes a day after Trump's Mar-a-Lago retreat in Florida was raided by FBI agents in an unrelated investigation into the former president's handling of classified White House documents.

I mean at this point, frick it. Why not? I'm honestly shocked someone at the IRS hasn't just illegally pulled them and handed them over yet.

They have. They needed judicial cover to leak them.

Pretty sure they already have but needed this “ruling” as cover.

By all means. Have at it.

If you can find something that the IRS, crawling up this man’s rectum with a microscope for several decades, didn’t find…more power to you.

Just know…this establishes precedent.

Awkward enough that you’ll never hear about it.

This all-out assault by Dems and their controlled Fed agencies on one person totally nullifies trust in the federal government.

The day after he's raided by the FBI?

Let me guess - all just coincidence?

The full court press has started. Something else will drop as well from the J6 committee I suspect.

They know they wont find anything illegal, but what they can do is leak it to the state run media that he LEGALLY did not pay any taxes while making millions. The legally part will not be mentioned.

Yay all the Russian payments made , that were never done, will be the topic of the news . It’s a pile on onslaught like never before. And when it flips , and it will, it’ll be well let’s heal the country. It’s late in the game and they cannot go back and start over. Democrats about to understand the price of phucking around and finding out
