A former contractor for the Internal Revenue Service who pleaded guilty to leaking tax information to news outlets about former President Donald Trump and thousands of the countrys wealthiest people was sentenced to five years in prison Monday.
I want them to pay their share just like the rest of us Americans who try to be honest!

(96,882 posts)Tax forms are private. Unless you think it's okay for Republicans to issue tax information on Democrats, there's no excuse outside of legal procedure. Donald Trump HAS NOT BEEN CHARGED with tax fraud at any point. I respect the decision of the Biden Treasury Dept and Biden DOJ to decide if an indictment is warranted.
