The DNC should not allow any candidate on debate stage that hasn't released their tax returns

125. If you want to go there: We got Kamalas 2015 financials in 2016. Where are Bernie's 2015 returns?

Did Kamala run for POTUS in 2016, and kept promising tax returns by a certain date, then not deliver?

Then two years later, knowing that she was going to run for POTUS again, and still didn't get her taxes ready, even though she knew that it would again be an issue because they were not delivered the last time?

I would think that would have been the very first thing she - or anyone in that situation - would do.

Kirsten Gillibrand releases hers every year. Oh...I guess you don't want to point to her as an example.

I can put my hands on seven years of taxes in 5 minutes, because basic financial responsibility as a tax paying adult is that one keeps copies going back 7 years in case one is audited

And I'm not even planning to run for office.

But Kamala must really seem like a threat if people defending Bernie on the issue with personal financial transparency keep pointing the finger at her... but we know as much about Kamalas taxes as we do Bernie's, in fact her disclosure is more recent - 2015.

I guess one could just as well ask, "Where is Bernie's 2015 return" if Kamala supporters wanted to play the whataboutism game.

Harris reported an estimated minimum net worth of $391,100 in 2017, the first year she held federal office and had to submit the disclosures every member of Congress files.

Harris is thought to be considering a presidential bid in 2020, and the disclosure was among the first glimpses of the former California attorney general’s finances. Harris released tax returns during the 2016 campaign that showed she and her husband made $1.17 million in 2015 and paid $450,000 in state and federal income taxes.

According to the 2017 disclosure, Harris had $2 million in assets, including at least $250,000 in savings and a San Francisco Employees Retirement account worth at least $250,000 from her time as a city and county district attorney. The Democrat's husband, intellectual property and entertainment lawyer Doug Emhoff, held the bulk of their wealth. He has more than $900,000 in investments and retirement accounts. Emhoff also held their biggest liability, a mortgage worth at least $1 million.
