You think there is a line for "bribes" and "inside information" on the IRS return?
Spoken like a dumbshit Evangelical. When it comes to who benefits most by playing the victim: American Indians, blacks, and women. I don't see much privileged treatment of Muslims. And, LGBT gets special rights for immoral behavior.
Every time a Jesus-hating Evangelical dumbshit whines about imagined antisemitism, which is frequent, they're trying to put Jews on top of the victimhood totem. Israel receives more US taxpayer money that any other country. Israel gets trade preferences with the US over nearly every other country in the world.
How come Christians didn't make your "not included" list? Most LGBT "special rights" are designed to oppress Christians. Christian freedoms are more often oppressed for the sake of Jews than for Muslims.

Has Nancy Pelosi released her and her husbands tax returns?
After all she is third in line for the Presidency. We should know.
You must have been missing the latest events?
Mar 3, 2019 - Democratic Reps. Ilhan Omar (Minn.) and Nita Lowey (N.Y.) feuded Sunday over support of Israel and alleged anti-Semitic comments.
What does that have to do w/ the topic???
Start spreading the news: New Yorkers are coughing up the most cash in state income taxes.
The Empire State collected $2,249 per capita in individual state income taxes during the 2017 fiscal year, according to data from the Tax Foundation.
Connecticut was second, at $2,218, followed by Massachusetts' $2,146.
In all, seven states don't tax individual income: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington state and Wyoming.
Tennessee and New Hampshire don't tax wages, but they do so on income from interest and dividends.
See below for a map of where your state ranks with respect to income tax, according to data from the Tax Foundation.
Don't tell me that "always" and "every single year" don't mean permanently. But on the hilarious side, note trump's claim that he gets audited because he's a "strong Christian." God should strike him dead for that audacity.
"I'm always audited by the IRS, which I think is very unfair — I don't know, maybe because of religion, maybe because of something else, maybe because I'm doing this, although this is just recently,"
Trump said in an interview with CNN's Chris Cuomo immediately following the 10th GOP debate on Thursday night.
Cuomo cut in: "What do you mean religion?"
"Well, maybe because of the fact that I'm a strong Christian, and I feel strongly about it and maybe there's a bias," Trump said.
Cuomo cut in again: "You think you can get audited for being a strong Christian?"
"Well, you see what's happened," Trump said. "You have many religious groups that are complaining about that. They've been complaining about it for a long time.
But I can tell you one thing: I am audited when I shouldn't be audited. ... I tell my people: Why is it that every single year, I'm audited, whereas other people that are very rich, people are never audited — and they don't even know what I'm talking about when I talk about audits."

Muslims are constantly forgiven by the left and the media. I mean they kill gays, and hang them from cranes all over the ME. Do you ever hear a peep out of feminists, or SJWs about the evils of Islam? NO! Never. The fact that they are OK with muslimes doing these things, means they consider them higher victims on the hierarchy and thus its OK!
Just because we trade and aid Israel, doesn't mean Jews get a pass. Often the left has attacked them on college campus, and with new reps like Illian Omar who's overtly antisemitic.
They shouldn't be fags. Besides, that's in the ME, not here. No one is getting free points for college admission by being Muslim, etc.
Feminists don't complain about Muslims because Feminists are busy hating Christians, which you left off your list. And, besides, that's in the ME. Muslims in America are still small potatoes, but you Evangelicals ironically are doing more than anyone else to bring Muslims to America.
Every Jew on the Supreme Court, as sure as the sun sets at night, votes against the Constitution to hurt Christian freedom at every chance, and who has called them out for it, or pointed out the disproportionate Jewish representation on the Supreme Court (vs. no Evangelicals). Look at the filth Jews in Hollywood feed the American people, and you'd sooner complain about me pointing out that they're Jews than complain about Jews using Hollywood to bash Christianity and Christian values.
Typical,
picking on the special needs kid in the class......
Will you actually post something in support of your opinions??

I'm not sure you understand the topic. Pelosi is second in line. POTUS is in a position to directly affect national policy. trump seems to do so commensurate with his portfolio.
Speaker of the House? Not so much.
Of course not. There is for investments though. And of course tax deductions. Enough to smell a rat or not.

Obama's administration audits His Opposition BECAUSE IT WAS A TACTIC TO BEND PEOPLE TO HIS CAUSE
Sucking ass is easy...holding your breath is difficult.
In 2013, the United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) revealed that it had selected political groups applying for tax-exempt status for intensive scrutiny based on their names or political themes. This led to wide condemnation of the agency and triggered several investigations, including a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) criminal probe ordered by United States Attorney General Eric Holder.
Initial reports described the selections as nearly exclusively of conservative groups with terms such as "Tea Party" in their names. According to Republican lawmakers, liberal-leaning groups and the Occupy movement had also triggered additional scrutiny, but at a lower rate than conservative groups.
The Republican majority on the House Oversight Committee issued a report, which concluded that although some liberal groups were selected for additional review, the scrutiny that these groups received did not amount to targeting when compared to the greater scrutiny received by conservative groups. The report was criticized by the committee's Democratic minority, which said that the report ignored evidence that the IRS used keywords to identify both liberal and conservative groups.
In January 2014, James Comey, who at the time was the FBI director, told Fox News that its investigation had found no evidence so far warranting the filing of federal criminal charges in connection with the controversy, as it had not found any evidence of "enemy hunting", and that the investigation continued.
On October 23, 2015, the Justice Department declared that no criminal charges would be filed. On September 8, 2017, the Trump Justice Department declined to reopen the criminal investigation into Lois Lerner, a central figure in the controversy.[1]
In late September 2017, an exhaustive report by the Treasury Department's inspector general found that from 2004 to 2013, the IRS used both conservative and liberal keywords to choose targets for further scrutiny.[2][3]
In October 2017, the Trump Administration agreed to settle a lawsuit filed on behalf of more than four hundred conservative nonprofit groups who claimed that they had been discriminated against by the Internal Revenue Service for an undisclosed amount described by plaintiffs' counsel as "very substantial." The Trump Administration also agreed to settle a second lawsuit brought by forty-one conservative organizations with an apology and an admission that subjecting them to "heightened scrutiny and inordinate delays" was wrongful.

^ What do you mean by that?
trump's been audited since the 1970s. Deal with it.
"I am audited when I shouldn't be audited. ... I tell my people: Why is it that every single year, I'm audited, whereas other people that are very rich, people are never audited — and they don't even know what I'm talking about when I talk about audits."

You are correct. I was wrong. Pelousy is 2nd in line
So isn't the House of Representatives and Senate a co equal branch of government? They can impact all sorts of things to enrich themselves. They impact national security as well with their ability to declare war. The President can't do that.
I find it humorous you don't demand their tax returns. I appreciate your hypocrisy. You are a partisan hack

I don't have a problem with every politician exposing all of their investments. That's not the topic. POTUS can affect change overnight with the use of a pen. No individual member of Congress can. It's clear that every foreign policy decision trump supports, directly affects his bottom line.
Imagine if Obama tried that?
