Biden Department of Justice Directly Targets Trump, Directs IRS to Give His Tax Returns to Pelosi

Team Biden likely got a lackey from his justice department to come up with this illegal unconstitutional order.

The move is found no where in the U.S. Constitution or Bill of Rights, in fact it’s clear demonstration of discrimination against the former president.

For those on the left who are in continual attack dog mode it makes perfect sense.

When a party has nothing to offer it’s constituents , it goes into the free stuff to buy their votes.

The left is for growing a slothful wasteful government while taxing virtually every thing that moves or doesn’t move.

The Biden Department of Justice has ruled that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has to provide Congress with former President Donald Trump’s tax records.

The opinion, which was written by the Justice Department’s Legal Counsel team, stated that Congress has a “legitimate legislative purpose” to request former President Trump’s tax returns.

In assessing whether requested information could serve a legitimate legislative purpose, the Executive Branch must give due weight to Congress’s status as a co-equal branch of government.

Like courts, therefore, Executive Branch officials must apply a presumption that Legislative Branch officials act in good faith and in furtherance of legitimate objectives.

When one of the congressional tax committees requests tax information pursuant to section 6103(f)(1), and has invoked facially valid reasons for its request, the Executive Branch should conclude that the request lacks a legitimate legislative purpose only in exceptional circumstances.

The Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee has invoked sufficient reasons for requesting the former President’s tax information. Under section 6103(f)(1), Treasury must furnish the information to the Committee.

CNBC reports that the opinion “is a reversal of an opinion by the same office, during the Trump administration, which had backed the IRS’ refusal to give the committee Trump’s returns.”

Corrupt Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi praised the decision, thanking Ways and Means Committee Chairman Rep. Richie Neal (D-MA) for “delivering a victory for the rule of law.”

Check out what the Daily Wire reported:

For the past several years, Democrats’ requests to gain access to President Trump’s tax returns have slowly moved through the American court system. In February, the Supreme Court denied President Trump’s request to delay compliance to a subpoena from Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance. 

Trump characterized Vance’s investigation as part of “the greatest political witch hunt in the history of our country,” suggesting that Democrats in New York were failing to tackle violent crime to denigrating an opponent.“

That’s fascism, not justice — and that is exactly what they are trying to do with respect to me, except that the people of our Country won’t stand for it,” Trump said at the time.

“As Speaker, on behalf of the House of Representatives, I applaud Chairman Neal for his dignified pursuit of the truth and the Biden Administration Department of Justice for its respect for the law,” Pelosi said in a statement. “Access to former President Trump’s tax returns is a matter of national security.

The American people deserve to know the facts of his troubling conflicts of interest and undermining of our security and democracy as president.” [Who cares?]
