I don't care about a man who was rich then became a politician. I care more about people who weren't rich until they became politicians.

First start from Pelosi and Feinstein

[@hannahmurray3782]

Thelma Szaf- why should they be done before trump?

[@Chuck68ify]

Call your Senator.

[@jonathanpasch6604]

I demand an audit on The Clinton Foundation

[@hannahmurray3782]

Jonathan Pasch - you’ll need to do more than put your demands in a KZbin comments section.

[@jefferyhankins1980]

And Bill and Killary themselves!

[@binkiep2840]

The clinton foundation has already been audited. What else you got?

[@jang2505]

What are the nefarious and Democrats going to find that the IRS is not already aware of. You didn't like number 44 and you have more just like four number 45 what the hell is wrong with you? Judge, you leave little to be desired. I should say retired judge. I am so sick of the hatred and the comments in the attacking of our POTUS

[@ovniusa15]

When under investigation you don’t have to divulge anything

[@hannahmurray3782]

AR-15 - where in the law does it say that?

[@gordonlecroy4258]

You have the right to remain silent. If you are under investigation, you are NOT required to help them find evidence.

[@hannahmurray3782]

Gordon LeCroy - trump is not being asked to find evidence. Steve Mnuchin is.

[@randygibbons7817]

What's the big deal? President Trump said he would release his taxes. They're not going to find what they're looking for. The president is honest man who works really hard for the people.

Fraudulent WEAPONIZING is not a legal action; not in anyone’s opinion.

[@melv432100]

The I.R.S. should be abolished along with the Federal Reserve

[@hannahmurray3782]

Kevin Lemcom - why?

[@darwinpenning1319]

Donald Trump was duly elected President of the United States and any man or woman who can achieve that has earned respect and should be allowed to do the job unfettered.

[@hannahmurray3782]

Darwin Penning - unfettered? nonsense. The presidency is is one of three coequal branches. You are asking for a dictatorship. Why do you want a dictatorship? Vladimir Putin was elected. You want him?

[@Leonidus808]

Ridiculous statute. Tax returns should be private and confidential. Period.

[@matthewsoto5525]

She asked if they ever used the law to look at any other President's taxes, lol. Every other President voluntarily released their taxes

[@hannahmurray3782]

Matthew Soto - I don’t watch a lot of fox as it is so dumbed down I want to scream, and these three are probably the dumbest. I watched it because I like to hear what Napolitano has to say. But I think a lot goes over these interviewers’ heads.

[@jesseestes4393]

An audit usually consist of 10 to 12 years. The irs does not have to release them while in their possession!

[@steveboo14]

The guy who is leading the charge to get his returns, has neglected to show his taxes when requested....go figure.

[@Youngblood1934]

Who holds the pictures that blackmail Nat?

[@artraygalleryart1159]

We pay tax. Why didn't trump paid any tax?

[@randygibbons7817]

What's the big deal? President Trump said he would release his taxes. He's got nothing to worry about. They won't find whatever they're looking for. The president is a honest person who is very good at business.

[@tamelamcghee1458]

Blessings and continued prayers, president Trump

[@keithmccormick4768]

Thanks Napolitano but the president has his own lawyers.

[@timmylehin2375]

Trump as a president should not be allowing them with all these nonsense, they are getting too much.

[@Ed-ts4bj]

President Trump’s personal tax returns will show little to no taxes owed, his business’ tax returns will show income with taxes owed.

[@marynewport8427]

Bring out everyones returns.

[@nancyferrell4550]

What difference would tax returns make? They just want to be nosey. If the returns pass the auditors every year, let it go.

[@gregsmith7828]

1st, the irs is not a governmental agency. 2nd, the only entity has a right to see his taxes are the irs. 3rd. a 2 year investigation would have shown any issues .

[@JMichellePhillipsRisingthunder]

If Trump didn't want this to happen then he shouldn't keep running his big mouth about all of his money and should not have bragged about all of his investments and such. Plus the countless waste of taxpayer money. Like I said Trump brought this on his self. Let not get started on his undocumented employees over the years, pull up the court from Trump Towers, Trump had about 200 undocumented immigrants.

[@mrgaryg44]

Pull ya pants up america.

Ever since he didn't get nominated, Nap has been bitter and irrational in his hatred of Trump.

Isn't new York checking in to his taxes now

[@Herman47]

I suspect so. Cohen testified that Trumpy was playing games in reporting assessed values of some of his properties

[@Sailorjerry46]

Alright judge you won’t mind letting us all see your tax returns will you?

[@hannahmurray3782]

Sailorjerry46 - your point?

[@Sailorjerry46]

@Onair Carna Would you mind showing me your tax returns? Pls post them here in the comments for me

[@hannahmurray3782]

Sailorjerry46 - no, I am a private citizen. I don’t need to show you my tax returns. I need to show them to the secretary of the treasury if he asks. Trump is not a private citizen and there are good reasons why he should show congress his tax returns including susceptibility to blackmail. If he’s willing to go to court over this, there must be something criminal in them.

[@Sailorjerry46]

@Onair Carna He was a private citizen during the years they are asking for. Trump refuses to for the same reason that you refuse to show me yours.

[@Sailorjerry46]

@Onair Carna There is absolutely no reason why he should have to comply, and every reason why he shouldn’t. They are maliciously attacking him because their Russia scheme failed

[@aldeleon9811]

Couldn't he do the same thing to anyone of the dems?

[@hannahmurray3782]

Al De Leon - of course.

[@lorrycamill941]

Well if they are asking for Trump it would be for all demonRats as well

Neither is using “oversight” as an excuse to launch a fishing expedition to satisfy their curiosity.

[@TheWbiter]

What the hell happened to Nap and why is Fox employing him!?

[@RellyR510]

Cause he's honest someone has to be on fox

[@hannahmurray3782]

TheWbiter - I agree. An independent thinker who deals in facts should not be on fox.

[@arreolaluis2382]

No when i contacted aoc was because of the irs

[@profoundclarity8497]

If trump's just an innocent business man why does he not want to show his tax records or school records....he's fucking terrified....he feels the bubble closing in.....poor trump....be best ..

[@mars353]

I think there’s a court decision that says Congress can’t request tax returns just to look at them. Plus, the same law that gives congress this right also gives the president the right to look tax returns. He can invade their privacy just like they invade his.

[@alicel3992]

I'm not interested in Pres Trump's tax returns. But I want to see those of Nancy, Chuck, Diane, Barbara, Maxine, AOC, talib, Omar, bernie and many others who are making a fortune while "serving" in Congress. MAGA Pres Trump 2020

@Robert DeSio Just grab em by the pussy... Is that constitutional enough for you....LMAO

[@ocvegasproperty]

Why does he need any defense besides saying “no” to a bullshit invasion of privacy request.

[@nothingbut490]

Judge Nap has a dislike for Trump so don't take his opinion seriously

[@wainewizanthony7420]

Nap.... just reminded me why I get sick to my stomach now a days watching Fox... smdh

[@matthewthomas4812]

Every president has released there taxes since Nixon so what makes trump and you trumpets think that king trump should be treated any differently. Hypocrisy coming from all of you.

We need judge Nap like we need Juan Williams, to prove balanced debate you need a couple of leftists.

[@goodgoat3096]

Judge Nap seems to be getting senile. Time to put him out to pasture.

[@hannahmurray3782]

Is there no one on this thread listening to Tim O’Brien, trump’s biographer? O’Brien has seen trump’s tax returns and says he’s the most financially conflicted president in modern times.
