Here’s a breakdown of the President’s tax returns obtained by the New York Times and #WhyItMatters.

The @nytimes obtained 18 years of President Trump’s tax returns. Sources gave access to three NYT reporters to examine his tax records which have not been made public.
KEY POINTs
📉He paid $750/yr in federal income tax in 2016 (year he became president) and in 2017 (his first year in office).

📉11 out of 18 yrs the Times reviewed, Mr. Trump reported he lost more than he made, so he paid no income tax.
📉Over 18 years of returns the Times reviewed, he paid $95 Million in taxes BUT got $72.9 Million of that back in federal tax refunds.

📉He has $421 Million in loans and debt that will have to be paid back in coming years.
Why now?

One month ago, a federal judge dismissed Mr. Trump’s bid to block the release of his returns. A subpoena was issued by Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance Jr. 1 yr+ ago after Michael Cohen told Congress Mr. Trump misled tax officials about his assets. bit.ly/3cC1JXi
President Trump’s says the report is fake news.

Important to note: Presidents are not required to release their tax returns but it’s been standard practice to release returns during yrs in office. Every president since 1974 has done so except Gerald Ford. bit.ly/2HEFNPU
#WhyItMatters
It reveals Mr. Trump’s financial history and shows he paid little to no tax in recent years. It also contradicts Mr. Trump’s repeated assertion that he’s a successful businessman due to a history of significant business losses & debts. bit.ly/2EHmGn3

#NEW: As of today in LA County, if paramedics/EMTs can’t get a patient’s heart beating again on scene, they will no longer transport that patient to the hospital.

That way, doctors in overrun ERs can provide care for patients who are viable. New directive below.
Medical director Dr. Marc Eckstein of @LAFD tells me wait times are dangerously long.

During Christmas week, one hospital had 19 ambulances waiting to offload at the same time.

People going to ERs without life-threatening problems, are waiting 12-18 hours just to get seen.
Why not take patients to other counties?  

He says, “the reality is the entire region is severely impacted right now. So there's really nowhere to go. Orange County and Ventura County, they're all experiencing the same surge right now... this is not overstating the situation.”

Waters has received many complaints about extreme delays. In Inglewood some haven’t gotten mail in 4-5 days. Image
“People are not getting their mail, people are not getting their medicine... this is not a Democrat or Republican issue. This affects everyone,” says @RepBarragan.

Some of her small biz owner constituents are not able to work & one man had to wait 12 days for meds, she says. Image
Rep. Jimmy Gomez is Vice Chair of the Committee on Oversight and Reform, the main investigative body of the House of Reps.

He says next Monday 8/24, Postmater general Louis DeJoy will be questioned by the House & will ask WHO told him to remove sorting machines, mail boxes etc. Image
