So do we all.
What lies and what lawlessness? Makes me think that if they manage to get the documents they want that they are going to add something to them to make President Trump guilty, fake them up like O’s birth certificate.
They are really pushing this by lying themselves.

I dont get this.
Isnt it a fact, that our IRS filing, including those of any elected official, are confidential? Isnt it a fact, that such tax information can only be released under certain limited circumstances?
Isnt it a fact that you cant just call up the IRS and ask for copies of someones tax returns? Isnt it a fact that we have laws regulating release of tax information, which Democrats apparently want to violate?

Ha! You seem to think the Left would give 2* sh!ts re: “the Law”...let alone the tyrants in black-robes whom would back ‘em up [and when they do, ZERO from the (R)N(C) to impeach\disbar\remove])

Any congressional exemptions from legislation must approved in separate legislation with a mandatory roll call vote.

I fail to note where ANY ‘exemption’ to *any* govt employee, outside of that specifically listed in the Constitution, passes the “smell test”, if not smacks directly as antithesis to the Constitution (Equal of/under the Law. Nation of Laws, not of Men).
>Sexual harassment slush fund records. Why cant we see those?
Why not ask the (R)N(C) ‘leadership’? That was one of the FASTEST ‘under the rugs’ I’ve seem in ages.
Oh, I know, we only need to elect a few more “conservatives”...THEN watch the ‘magic’ *spit* *SMH*

So laws are now whatever Dems deem them to be? What statue says jail time is required for not doing what they want?
>
Why not? When you have the black-robed tyrants giving their approving ‘decrees’ to the lawlessness...and ZERO push back from the “small govt” (R)N(C).
Don’t know ‘bout you, but I haven’t seen/heard/read hide nor hair from, the supposed, ‘our side’ of the political isle. Silence is consent, no? (Yet, PLENTY here will continue to pull the SAME (R) lever for the SAME spineless\B. Arnold names...)
Exemptions should not be allowed. If needed, though, they should require a national plescite.
Plebescite. Fat fingers!
There may be legitimate reasons to exempt Congress from legislation just like exemptions are allowed for other organizations. The problem is Congress taking advantage of the exemption for the personal benefit of the Congressmen and to the detriment of the citizens of the U.S. Congress has forgotten that the interests of their members and those of the citizens often diverge and seldom are in alignment. I'm inclined to just force complete disclosure first. No more middle-of-the-night, voice votes to hide their devious actions. If complete disclosure doesn't work, then some national plebiscite is in order.
Trusting congress to disclose is folly to me. Legitimate exemptions may occasionally be needed, but less restrictions on society where congress can’t bother being under the same rules is even more attractive.
