@SpiralCow @clearing_fog @rhonda_harbison @kyledcheney @TeresaCCarter2 1/ Too many lawsuits and countersuits for me to keep up with, but article mentions 2 suits to obtain tfg's tax records:
1. Manhattan DA*
2. House Ways & Means Committee [WAMC]
Today's ruling was on House WAMC:
*Manhattan DA rec'd tfg's tax returns Feb 2021
@SpiralCow @clearing_fog @rhonda_harbison @kyledcheney @TeresaCCarter2 2/ Dec 14, 2021:
"[A]fter a lengthy court battle, Trump’s accountants [Mazars USA] turned those records over to the Manhattan prosecutor in Feb of this year [2021]. Unlike [House WAMC Richard] Neal [MA-01], the prosecutors are forbidden by law...
politico.com/news/2021/12/1…
@SpiralCow @clearing_fog @rhonda_harbison @kyledcheney @TeresaCCarter2 3/ ...from releasing those records publicly because they were obtained as part of a grand jury probe."
HWAM Committe chair Richard Neal "has been seeking Trump’s tax returns since the middle of 2019. Neal reissued the request after Trump left office earlier this year [2021]...
@SpiralCow @clearing_fog @rhonda_harbison @kyledcheney @TeresaCCarter2 4/ ...saying the returns are necessary for a potential reform of the IRS program that audits presidential tax returns annually."
Judge Trevor "McFadden noted Neal’s decision to change the scope of the committee’s inquiry when he reissued his request for the returns this year...
@SpiralCow @clearing_fog @rhonda_harbison @kyledcheney @TeresaCCarter2 5/ ...While the 2019 request sought returns for tax yrs 2013 to 2018—much of which occurred before Trump’s presidency—the new request stretches from 2015 to 2018, encompassing Trump’s presidency plus an extra yr on either side*.
*this makes no sense to me, since tfg left this yr
@SpiralCow @clearing_fog @rhonda_harbison @kyledcheney @TeresaCCarter2 6/ "The Court agrees with the Federal Parties that returns from those other years could further the Committee’s study of the Program*,” [Judge Trevor] McFadden ruled.
*I believe McFadden is referring to potential reform of IRS program that audits presidential returns (tweet #4⤴️)
@SpiralCow @clearing_fog @rhonda_harbison @kyledcheney @TeresaCCarter2 7/ ...'Like an audit of any other taxpayer, a presidential audit can extend beyond a current return to “related returns” from other yrs.'"
I believe Judge McFadden is encouraging House WAMC chair Neal to expand probe into tfg tax returns back to original request, from 2013-2018.
@SpiralCow @clearing_fog @rhonda_harbison @kyledcheney @TeresaCCarter2 8/ Judge Trevor McFadden:
“It might not be right or wise to [publicly] publish the returns, but 👉it is the Chairman’s right to do so. Congress has granted him this extraordinary power👈, and courts are loath to second guess congressional motives or duly enacted statutes. (con't)
@SpiralCow @clearing_fog @rhonda_harbison @kyledcheney @TeresaCCarter2 9/ ...The Court will not do so here and thus must dismiss this case.”
If tfg appeals the case by the end of the year, his appeal would go to D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, where Merrick Garland sat before he became AG. /end

@YDanasmithdutra @dwinfrey72 @Reuters Lots of *really* shady stuff going on at that film production. You know how it's common for ppl to leap on any New Mexico connection and link to Jeffrey Epstein? Or perhaps to Vegas #1Oct2017?
Well, this happened 13 miles south of Santa Fe.
