Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green is breaking down and vowing to retaliate against Democrats for releasing Trump’s tax returns.
Green tweeted:
Democrats illegally released President Trump’s personal tax records, setting a new low for the largest witch hunt against a president in history.
Everyone can see how successful Pres Trump is, and he’s always in compliance with the IRS.
Now, the transformation is level playing field.

Years of litigation have proven that releasing Trump’s tax returns is not illegal. The only illegality Trump and his administration could commit would be if they were found to have prevented the IRS from auditing a sitting president while he was in office, as required by law.

If Marjorie Taylor Green threatens Joe Biden’s tax returns, she will be very disappointed to find out that the President’s legal audit has resumed under Biden and that the President has released all of his tax returns.
Green’s debacle shows that even Trump’s most loyal supporters in Congress know how damaging tax returns can be.
The idea of Donald Trump following IRS rules is almost as ludicrous as the idea of Trump being persecuted.
If Donald Trump wants to stop being prosecuted, having his tax returns released, and being investigated criminally, he should stop committing crimes.
Marjorie Taylor is giving Americans a sneak peek at the perverse acceptance of criminals and their crimes that House Republicans will bring to Congress after securing a majority in the House of Representatives in just days.
