Or at least I didn’t until I was talking to TPM’s Josh Kovensky and he mentioned it to me in passing.
But it didn’t become public until August 20th when it was included in a legal filing tied to the on-going tax returns litigation.
The IRS/Treasury response has been that there’s nothing to worry about on that front (the concerns are “unfounded”), so you don’t need the tax returns.
As you can see, the whole issue is rolled up into Neal’s strategy for getting the President’s tax returns.
Federal law says Neal can just ask for the returns and the IRS has to produce them.
There’s a whistleblower who says Trump’s appointees are interfering with the mandatory audit of the President’s tax returns.
That’s a big deal quite apart from how it affects the tax returns lawsuit!. »
