CNN is reporting that the Ways and Means Committee has received 6 years of twice-impeached former president Trump’s tax returns.

The Treasury Department has complied with last week’s court order to hand over the documents, a spokesperson from the Treasury Department confirmed to CNN on Wednesday. The Supreme Court declined last week to intervene after courts said the House had power to request the returns from the IRS. The committee, led by Democrat Richard Neal, had sought six years of Trump’s tax records, primarily from the time he served as president. That included records about both Trump personally and several of his corporate entities.

This could go a long way into investigations regarding tax and insurance fraud, and other matters.

These are records sought by the committee for purposes of investigation regarding possible changes to the relevant tax laws, not necessarily investigations into potential criminal activity. As such, they are private records that will likely be used by the committee and not released to the public.

The records were provided by the Internal Revenue Service following years of DT’s attempt to slow or prevent the release.

This is breaking, and I cannot find any more details at this time. When more details become available I will try to update as I can.
