Supreme Court Temporarily Blocks Subpoena For Trump Tax Returns | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC

  1. I guess Kavanaugh is finally paying back his debt to the Republicans… probably stalling for time so the House can’t use this against Trump in the Impeachment Inquiry. Hopefully, they won’t stall for too long.

    1. Evan Hayford They’re putin’s string pulling puppets following his orders so they can get paid a fortune by him. They’re all compromised by him, it’s so obvious

    2. Evan Hayford, Democrats are trying to violate Trumps 4th Amendment rights! Dont like it.. fine. You do not have to vote for him.. and probably wont even if he does release them!

    3. @o griss Electoral college protects the smaller states from the bigger states. We are a REPUBLIC of 50 states, not a mob Federal Democracy!

    1. @Dom Braswell I fact check before I spew lies online, therefore you’re wrong of course. No shocker, when you’re so bias you cant see, it’s called delusion.

    2. @Jett Spirit I fact check too. Trump asked on camera for investigations on Biden…..on video. I cant say if he should be removed. If you are ignore that he asked on camera, then your bs holds weight. If you want to ignore the factual substance, then is discussion is going nowhere. Cant change willful ignorance…I await your spin from substance..

    3. @Dom Braswell my thoughts are not but biased they are as follows: I’ve observed this President attacked at every angle possible and I think he deserved much of it, as far as smack back at him. I do not think attacks in media with no substance is how you remove or take down either side. Not on rumours or feelings FACTS. What I heard and saw with how all this went down with Biden was thru his sons corruption with a country his father is in charge of policy for. That wouldn’t even be an issue if joe biden himself didnt make a bold announcement how he fired prosecutor overseeing investigation into his son’s corruption in ukrain or else no aid available. ANY President in office or AG should have rightfully looked into that. I saw Democrats upset the president was looking into it. It’s his duty to do so. So he does and again the Democrats have tried to make that look suspicious. Just because someone is running for president, that doesn’t excuse, it should add scrutiny. If crimes are presented, I’d impeach him in a second., but you have to have something., all we see is Democrats lying and covering.

    4. @Jett Spirit you spun exactly as I predicted. You are not as unbiased as you think. What Biden is accused of questionable. Lindsey is finally attempting to do something about it. But personally feel that it’s not gonna lead to any new revelations, who knows? If it does, guess what? I like Biden but if the investigation yields NEW facts, I’m unbiased enough to accept facts I dont like. Trump is accused of doing something questionable and something was done about it and his supporters are not accepting facts they dont like….I’m unbiased because I accept ethical right and wrongs.. No matter how I personally feel about it.

    1. @Door Spook
      The IRS a separate entity by itself to safeguard peoples federal tax ID number .

      If Trump’s taxes are in order or not is a Matter for The IRS .

      Not Congress with their pinocchio noses .
      The more lies they tell the nosier they get .

      I have seen Democrats proclaiming Ukraine was under attack by Russia insinuating they were dieing by the thousands on the Russian front and aid was being witheld .

    2. @Door Spook
      Non Ukrainian people in Ukraine wanting to cash in on the cash cow pipe line Russian Natural gas to Europe .

      Democrats we were only there to keep it all on the up and up fair and free from corruption .

      Any Americans getting money in their pockets ?

      Russian gas , Ukraine and Europe .

    3. @Door Spook
      The gas company admits it was paying Hunter Biden to Influence Joe Biden .
      No quid pro quo , quid pro quo Democrats say nothing needed to be said , Quid pro quo just a favor of advantage given , Joe’s son Hunter high paying position .

      Democrats say that’s rediculous where is your proof that anything changed hands .

      President Ukraine no he did not feel pressured by Trump = Democrats we’ll be the Judge on that .

      Ukraine gas company yes we were paying Hunter Biden to Influence Joe Biden = Democrats we’ll be the Judge on That .

  2. Cohen warned them: “The more people that follow Mr. Trump, as I did blindly, are going to suffer the same consequences that I’m suffering.”
    Either Trump burns them or they torch themselves working for him.

    1. @Sapphire Riddles
      Lawyers can’t resist the temptation of getting a high level job in the government, at any cost!

    1. great idea. i wondered why no one ever leaked the mueller report. they leak what they want to leak and nothing more…

    1. Now the government is corrupt,, but I bet government is your best friend when supporting illegals crossing border illegally and live illegal!!? They’re your best friend when they support laws letting men use women’s restrooms!!? Or when you President have White House lit up in rainbow colors?!? Government been corrupt since the existence of humans!! All them are crooks who points finger at the next crook!! This situation boils down to the fact that it’s benrfits from being rich and not poor!! Funny how we choose to speak against and scream corrupt when it’s convenient!!! But eat up a pound of **** when it comes to other b.s!!

    2. President Trump has always had the best CPAs/Accountants and has always filed taxes legally; if he didn’t, the IRS would have been on his case long before now.
      I laugh when people say that he cheats on his taxes bc they have know idea what they are talking about.

    1. @Mind Freshener You don’t have a clue, the IRS going through them? They would not find he played games with property tax values v taxes. The IRS went through Nixon’s, the House Ways and Means suspected something wasn’t right. They went through them and threw them back at the IRS with a list of things they missed. He got nailed for back taxes and fines, and a hard core Nixon supporter that worked for the IRS was fired and locked up for ignoring it.

  3. even if there is a legitimate reason for the block – it looks like it is a corrupt action to protect the president

    1. Exactly! Since Kavanaugh’s speech about “Revenge of the Clintons” we will never know how much ‘I like 🍻’ has to pay back for his job.

  4. So even the Supreme Court isn’t interested in holding this guy’s feet to the fire. Hey, America, we had a good run.

    1. Actually..its lying cheating and RIPPING people off..he makes all the promises in the world..just don’t expect payment..stormy was the exception and only so he could capitalize on a bigger con..presidency..

  5. The supreme court’s mr. ” i love beer” is already ruling and bowing to his orange king. Sad to see it happening so quickly.
    The american justice is screwed.

    1. It’s not just Kavanaugh, Trump fixed a Conservative majority onto the Supreme Court – and many lower courts, too. Conservatives want to regress America to the 1950s. Young voters want to fashion their own future world, not put on a shoe they have outgrown as a hand-me-down. The future is theirs to improve upon.

  6. Another reminder that when conservatives claim to be “tough on crime” there’s a silent “but only when other people do it” at the end

    1. Tbh, you can easily see right through his pathetic lies. Only 30% of the population is wearing blinders and earplugs.
