It sets an awful precedent if granted.
It makes the IRS a political investigation arm.
I can’t imagine Congress critters finding problems in tax returns AFTER they have been approved by the IRS. They are just FISHING.
“It sets an awful precedent if granted.

For a change?
Yes-— which would make the IRS the true national Gestapo. The nazi gestapo had such powers.... against anyone, but especially those who were not Nazi party members.
One more example of the totalitarian socialist democrats— the Leftist Police State.
It recognizes the IRS a political investigation arm, at least when democrats are in charge.
I think that if the Supreme Court rules that President Trump has to release his tax returns there will soon be a law passed whereby the Supreme Court justices will have to open their kimonos and publish their tax returns.
Be careful SC.
Also, is Trump accused of breaking some law or is this a fishing expedition in which Trump’s private financial information is leaked to the public to discredit him.
Which it already was under the Clintons and Obamas.
Years ago, in Clinton's first year, I sent a printed postcard that I'd received from a site I had donated money to. The card was demanding that Bill Clinton, known draft dodger not be allowed to attend the Veteran's Day ceremony at Arlington, and lay the wreath at the grave of the Unknown Soldier. I'd signed my real name and address to it. The following year I was audited by IRS...very funny because I had filed the short form for that year, owned nothing, and had nothing to claim. I always figured the audit had to do with that card. I've never been audited since, and in my retirement, I always file the short form.
Well now it will be out in the open instead of Rats getting away with it in secret like they’ve always done.
Like it's not already? You're killing me Smalls!
“It makes the IRS a political investigation arm.”
That’s exactly right. None of these @ssholes seem to understand that if it can be done to Trump, it can be done to them.
hussein made it into one.
That ship sailed a looooong time ago.
