The House Ways and Means Committee voted to release Trump’s tax returns in an attempt to harass him.

GALLAGHER: Here is Texas Congressman Kevin Brady over this really grotesque display of retribution and an attempt to crucify Trump by having his tax returns released. Listen to Kevin Brady.

BRADY: Going forward, the Majority Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee and the Senate Finance Committee will have nearly unlimited power to target and make public the tax returns of private citizens. And not just private citizens, political enemies, business and labor leaders, or even the returns of Supreme Court justices themselves. No party in Congress should have that power. No individuals in Congress should have that power. It’s a power to embarrass, to harass, or destroy Americans through disclosure of their tax returns.

GALLAGHER: Of course he is right. What possible reason do they have in Congress to release a former President’s tax returns to the American public? Kevin Brady is right. All it is is an attempt to embarrass and harass Trump. He is a former President and a presidential candidate. An announced candidate for 2024. I am so sick of these twisted, vicious, bitter shrews doing what they have been doing to Donald Trump. They are going to go too far. It is going to have the opposite effect. Do they not realize how many people are coming out of the wood work saying this is wrong and I am going to support Trump despite them? Am I missing this here? You ok with this? You ok with the House ways and means committee after their closed door meeting to vote 24-11 to release Trump’s tax returns? 6 years of his tax returns. For what? To what end? Well we know what it is. Just to embarrass him.
