They said, dont hit too much on freedom now, but hit the need for power. There, rix was saying, hit them now. I kept saying, give me time. We dropped like power. They have been primed and responded immediately. I myself, to be honest, i did not expect that enthusiastic response. Amy
Stokely Carmichael
adopted the name he died in and those 1998. Are some of the headlines. This democracy now, democracynow. Org, the war and peace report. Im amy goodman. Return to the guncontrol debate on capitol hill. For nearly 15 hours, democratic senator chris murphy of connecticut led a filibuster calling for stricter gun control in the wake of the orlando massacre that left 49 people dead.

With help from allies, he kept the filibuster going until 2 11 this morning saying that , republicans have agreed to hold votes on measures to expand background checks and prevent people on u. S. Terrorism watch lists from buying guns. Murphy accused the
Republicanled Senate
of failing to address the nations gun epidemic. I think the people notice when we remain silent i know it is unintentional, but it seems to some people as if we dont care about what happens when we dont try to do anything about it. And i understand we have deep disagreements here about how to proceed, but with the exception of one week in 2013, we have not brought a debate to this floor in which we try to hash out our differences. Republican leadership did not announce in the wake of orlando that we are going to spend this week working on trying to enact measures to make sure that another mass shooting doesnt happen. And a fundamental disconnect with the
American People
when these tragedies continue to occur and we just move forward with this is as usual. So im going to remain on this floor until we get some signal, some sign that we can come together on these two measures, that we can get a path forward on addressing this epidemic in a meaningful, bipartisan way. Amy on the president ial campaign trail,
Hillary Clinton
tweeted her support of murphys effort, saying some fights are too important to stay silent. Preventing gun violence is one of them. Stand strong chrismurphyct. Meanwhile, donald trump suggested in a tweet that he will push the nra to accept some new forms of gun control. He wrote i will be meeting with the nra, who has endorsed me, about not allowing people on the terrorist watch list, or the no fly list, to buy guns. Meanwhile, the cover of todays boston globe, features a large photo of a military style ar15 next to just three words make it stop. For more were joined by caroline fredrickson, president of the
American Constitution Society
for law and policy. Welcome to democracy now you are in washington, d. C. , with a knife longest filibuster in u. S. History took place on the floor of the senate will stop where the night long as filibuster in u. S. History took place on the floor of the senate. Quite i think it is pretty important to recognize the
Republican Leadership
has been unwilling to even discuss the most limited, basic, commonsensical restrictions on access to guns. And after this historic filibuster, they have agreed to allow votes to go forward on a couple again, we could be asking for a lot more, but these are some basic measures that the senate will move forward to a vote on. At least the
American People
can get these senators on the record. Amy talk about this. One of them is a nofly ,no buy. Explain what that is. Essentially, we have these terrorist watch list in the
United States
or the government has determined that people are perhaps terrorists were associated with terrorists and they are dangerous. The nofly list prevents them from getting on an airplane. The no buy list would extend that to the purchase of guns and saying, you know, as we might think another commonsense measure, that if you are thought to be a terrorist and we wont let you fly, we should probably not let you buy a gun. Amy theres
Something Interesting
that happened with republicans yesterday on this issue. Because the republicans have been so opposed, along with the nra, to any kind of regulation, they find themselves on the side of the terror watch list saying that there should be a way people can get off it which is interesting, and i think a lot of people would agree with that. What happens when you are put on this list and you have no recourse . They are calling for this now because theyre saying, if people cant get off it, they can buy guns. So explain what theyre pushing for. Well, and i think all of us who care about
Civil Liberties
should want to make sure that those lists are fairly come to an theres a process for getting off if there is a mistake. I know the aclu where i used to work has long pushed for that. I think that is important. But the idea is, what we need is a process that can recognize and deal with mistakes, but not put up a false effort to simply derail with the democrats are trying to do just what i am very for the nra and the
Republican Leadership
is aiming for here. Amy explain. The best way to get something off the public stage is to set up meetings and to say theres going to be a dialogue and a discussion. Take a long time to finally reach the end, which is that you cant get to an agreement. I am somewhat skeptical, but i do think the democrats should be pushing as hard as they can. The filibuster is an important tool to bring people to the table. I think senator murphy was right not to back down simply because some republicans said they were discussing a possible compromise with senator feinstein. At the end of the day, that compromise discussion fell apart. Similar murphy was right to keep to the floor. I think the democrats have to continue to use these tools in order to make sure any agreement is one that actually has teeth. Amy

California Democratic<\/a> senator dianne finds that has released new statistics showing more than 90 of known or suspected terrorists have attempted to buy a gun since 2004 have passed a background check and been cleared to do so. The data from the
Government Accountability<\/a> office shows between 2004 and 2015, nearly 2500 people on the watch list applied to purchase weapons. 2300 of them were approved. Last year, individuals on the terrorist watch list were involved in background checks to purchase firearms, 244 times can only 21 of those were denied. Caroline fredrickson . I think it shows, we have a problem here. I know the fbi itself is talking about better ways to raise those
Warning Signals<\/a> up. But really, im sorry, but if you can get on an airplane or you cant get on an airplane, you really should not field a buy a gun. You should not be able to buy an automatic weapon of the kind that was used in orlando. We could ever that tragedy. Amy talk about an assault weapons ban. What is amazing is cbs just did a poll does have more than half the country is for an assault weapons ban. This week we did an interview with one of the leading activists from australia after the tense mania massacre 20 years ago tasmanian massacre 20 ors ago this spring, australia with all of the crocodile dundees, turned around in 10 days and fact, they all said you are a web to need an automatic weapon to kill animals. They turn that around completely and enforced strict gun reform and since that time, 20 years ago, there has never been a mass shooting in australia. Gun violence down 50 . But it seemed off the table yesterday, even for the democrats. Well, you know, it is a real shame. I think one of the things we need to bring to the table and the discussions about gun violence in the u. S. Is data. The data you just cited about the ability to prevent a mass shooting by getting rid of or making it impossible for average citizens to buy such a dangerous ,eapon, a military style weapon you know, it speaks for itself. We should be governed data like that. We should be having an actual reasonable discussion about what measures can be taken. That does not deny hunters the ability to go out. As you said, i think real hunters dont want to shoot down animals would automatic machine guns. Were not talking about restricting hunting rifles. But really, lets look at what is out there. Where these
Mass Shootings<\/a> you know, what are the weapons that are being used . I think if people could just be reasonable and sit around a table, we could come up with some appropriate regulations that would continue to allow people to exercise their
Second Amendment<\/a> rights, but not enable dangerous people who want to engage in mass murder to go out and buy these guns without any restrictions. Amy we have spent time talking about the terror watch list, but what about overall in society . I mean, when you have, for example, the young man in connecticut who gunned down the 26
School Children<\/a> and six staff and teachers in sandy hook. When you have the young man who killed people at the
Aurora Movie Theater<\/a> in colorado. These are not people who would traditionally put on a terror watch list. These are people who are extremely unstable, had various ways where people could see that they were, and also the issue of
Domestic Violence<\/a> which was raised on the floor of the senate yesterday. But as so often in these cases, you can trace back to a man who beat his wife or partner, as is the case with omar mateen. His first wife leaving him after four months. Amy, you raise a good point. This isnt a onesizefitsall answer, but there are a variety of proposals that have been suggested even as we go back to the assault weapons ban. Something that has been law in the past. We lived under that law. We lived under that law. It is constitutional, even under this supreme courts most restrictive version of the heller decision. There are a lot of limits that are constitutional that we can consider. And certainly expanding background checks, enforcing them. President obama has proposed tightening up some of the existing loopholes that would ensure that people who are engaged in
Domestic Violence<\/a>, that would extend to people who are not in a married relationship but to others people with serious
Mental Illnesses<\/a> and other dangerous individuals would be barred from getting a gun. I think we can all agree that makes a lot of sense. Amy and in the case of the ar15, which is the mass shooters weapon of choice, whether it is adam lanza in connecticut of course, that is where chris murphy comes out of. He had just been elected to the senate when the sandy hook massacre took place. Whether it is james holmes at the aurora massacre or whether. T is mateen here in orlando 10 years, more than a decade ago, the assault weapons ban was allowed to lapse. What you think its chances are of being reinstated with more than half the population, according to cbs, saying they want to see it again . What we need is political will. We need people to stand up to the nra. It is about time. They are out of step with where the
American Public<\/a> is on so many gun issues. As you mentioned, 90 of the
American Public<\/a> wants stricter gun safety laws. I think we need somebody to say, you know, enough. It is time for us to actually move forward. Were going to protect second minute rights and ensure hunters can have their guns, but were also going to ensure that dangerous people and military style weapons are cant meet. That those people cannot buy those guns, that the guns are not available. It is about time. Weve seen way too much of this. You know, the tragedies keep mounting. Amy we will continue to cover this and see what happens. Caroline fredrickson president , of the
American Constitution Society<\/a> for law and policy. When we come back, we look at
Donald Trumps<\/a>
Business Record<\/a>. A number of journalists have been delving into his business practices. Stay with us. [music break] amy this is democracy now , democracynow. Org, the war and peace report. Im amy goodman. An antidonald trump playbook compiled by the
Democratic National<\/a> committee has leaked online following this weeks report that the
Democratic National<\/a> computers can
Democratic National<\/a> committees computers were breached by russian hackers. Human, in the document trump is pilloried as a , bad businessman and misogynist in chief. Well, instead of devising a dossier on trump, the dnc couldve just encouraged voters to pick up a newspaper and read the facts for themselves. A series of new investigative articles reveal trumps shady business dealings in
Atlantic City<\/a> his failure to pay , contracted workers over the years, and his decision to partake in what may amount to calculated tax fraud a felony. We begin by looking at a lengthy article this past weekend in the
New York Times<\/a> detailing how donald trump bankrupted his
Atlantic City<\/a> casinos, but still earned millions. Reporters
Ross Buettner<\/a> and
Charles Bagli<\/a> write even as his companies did poorly, mr. Trump did well. He put up little of his own money, shifted personal debts to the casinos and collected millions of dollars in salary, bonuses and other payments. The burden of his failures fell on investors and others who had bet on his business acumen. Their new article is headlined, how donald trump bankrupted his
Atlantic City<\/a> casinos but still earned millions. And
Charles Bagli<\/a>, welcome. Russ, lets start with you, how trump profited on failed casinos. I think the most surprising thing to me was the pattern of repeated over and over again,hich is him buying high mortgaging even higher, and then promising that everything was going to be wonderful. The inevitable happens that they run out of cash. The casinos cannot support the debt he has put on. He is able to get his investors to take a haircut, a big cut in the money they have upcoming, and the pattern starts all over again. That repeated itself four times and probably would have been a fit except investors had it with them. Four times bankruptcy . Yes. Amy which is interesting because many people who support donald trump, those who go up out to his rallies, talk about just this country needing jobs and we need a businessman to run this country correctly. That is right. That is the central core of his candidacy. Amy charles, tell us the story of the empire that donald trump assembled in
Atlantic City<\/a>. Layout the hole boardwalk geography. Voters in new jersey approved gambling in
Atlantic City<\/a> in the late 1970s. Easily development of a bunch of casinos down there. Donald trump came in in the second wave. In 1982, he got licensed and sought opportunity and he you back on other peoples efforts there. He had a great location. Yet a piece of land right next to the on the boardwalk next to the convention center. He did not have the money to actually correct the casino, so arrahs. Era h they let him have half the profits. So that was his first casino. The second casino, hilton, i just about completed a casino in the
Marina District<\/a> that could not get licensed. Donald bought it. Hisas directly across from patrons casino or harrahs casino. They were outraged about this. That partnership ended will stop donald now has two casinos. All of this was bought with debt. There wasnt a lot of money that donald was putting into the properties. So then he is no sooner done acquiring two when resorts international, which was the
First Company<\/a> to build a casino, is now building what they say will be the biggest casino in the world. The chairman died. Donald made a play for the company. Got into a fight with merv griffin, the talkshow host. They ended up splitting the baby. So he got the taj mahal. He told regulators, dont worry, im going to do fine here, i hate junk bond debt. It makes for junk companies. Within five minutes later, he turned around and put 675 million more debt, high interest debt, on the properties. So here he is now with three casinos by 1990 amy trump taj mahal. Trump taj mahal, and there all caps it with each other. Trump taj mahal opens. 58 millioning off ultimately that youre from his other two casinos. It was a fatal amount of debt that was there. The control commission was appalled at the high level of debt, 3. 4 billion on his entire empire that point. Amy so how, rest, did he make money . , each time he took it out, created a big pot of cash that could have supported the business for some number of years, that could have been reinvested in the business to make the casinos look better and work better. Instead, what seems to happen is it supported the bottom line that was winding and he pulled out large lagging and you pulled out 1 million he are basically for them using his name, rose to 2 million later on. You charged the casinos 300,000 in your for occasional use of his jet. He took a 5 million bonus in 1996, which was the year that the stock both hit its people and then sunk and began a long start slight from which it never recovered. Amy in september, this is former hewlettpackard ceo
Carly Fiorina<\/a> sparring with donald trump. There are a lot of us americans who believe we are going to have trouble someday paying back the interest on our debt. Because politicians have run up mountains of debt using other peoples money. That is in fact were cicely the way you ran your casinos will step you ran up mountains of debt as well as losses using other peoples money and you were forced to file for bankruptcy not once, not twice, four times. A record four times. Why should we trust you with the finances of this nation . Ive made over 10 billion. At a
Casino Company<\/a> caesars file for bankruptcy. Most everybody in
Atlantic City<\/a> is a must in trouble maybe i will blame chris. Atlantic city is a disaster. Wait a minute. I let use the. Atlantic city is a disaster and i did great in
Atlantic City<\/a>. I knew when to get out. My timing was great and i got a lot of credit for it. Amy i knew when to get out. My timing was great. Charles bagli . Absolutely not. The problems in
Atlantic City<\/a> started in 2006 when a pennsylvania started opening up casinos and siphoning off potential revenue for
Atlantic City<\/a>. But donald was fullbore from 1990 to 2004, in fact, he was finally ousted from the company because the management did not want him around anymore. Write, close examination of regulatory reviews, court records, security filings by the
New York Times<\/a>, leaves little doubt that mr. Trumps casino business was a protracted failure without now says his casinos were overtaken by the same tidal wave that eventually slammed this seaside citys gambling industry. In reality, he was failing in
Atlantic City<\/a> long before
Atlantic City<\/a> itself was failing. It even as his companies did poorly, mr. Trump did well. He put up little of his own money, shifted personal debts to the casinos, and collected millions of dollars in salary, bonuses, and other payments. The burden of his failures fell on investors and others who had bet on his business acumen. Suffered . Ner, who do you tell stories of the people who got hurt in this massive failure in
Atlantic City<\/a> . There were several large categories of people, one where people who worked on the initial taj mahal. That bankruptcy, they really shorted contractors who were owed money. They have performed work and had not been paid. They negotiated very small amounts for those people to be paid. We quoted one person in in the article his father almost lost her business, took . 30 on the dollar for the work he a done on the taj. Andothers were bondholders stockholders. Some of those, as mr. Trump has said, were sophisticated investors who shouldve been able to look at the
Balance Sheet<\/a> and see what they were getting into. Others were people who had their interment retirement invested or had their and retirement invested through mutual funds. ,e spoke with one stockholder one point was 500,000, and was left with essentially nothing. And it got how unusual is it for businessman. Four the group sees . I think it is somewhat unprecedented. The idea that wall street continued to give him money, not once, not twice, three, four times, i mean, we were kind of holding onto our heads when you look at the full record down in
Atlantic City<\/a>. I dont think ive seen anything like it. More recently, a number of
Casino Companies<\/a> have had trouble in
Atlantic City<\/a> because the market is shrinking. As other states put casinos online. Experience, i have never seen anything like it. Amy was a state takeover similar to flint . The state takeover of
Atlantic City<\/a> . Amy what theyre proposing. Atlantic city has been a mess for a long time. You can see the
Casino Industry<\/a> has been there for more than 35 years, and it still looks like a gap to city. Lots are sitting vacant. The state is edging toward a takeover of the city where theres a long history of corruption. I think theres equal blame for the city, the state, and the
Casino Industry<\/a>. Amy were going to go to break and come back to this discussion and broaden it out to usa today reporters a reporter for the daily beast, looking at
Donald Trumps<\/a> record from
Atlantic City<\/a> well, and beyond. We are talking with
Russ Buettner<\/a> and
Charles Bagli<\/a>, who wrote a piece, a major front page sunday piece in the
New York Times<\/a> called, how donald trump bankrupted his
Atlantic City<\/a> casinos, but still earned millions. Back in a minute. [music break] amy this is democracy now , democracynow. Org, the war and peace report. Im amy goodman. They were looking at
Business Record<\/a> of the
Presumptive Republican<\/a> president ial nominee donald trump. We turn to look at a new usa today expose that found hundreds of former employees and contractors have accused donald trump and his businesses of failing to pay them for their work. Victims have included a dishwasher in florida, a
Glass Company<\/a> in new jersey, a carpet company, a plumber, 48 waiters, dozens of bartenders at his resorts and clubs, and even several law firms that once represented him in these labor lawsuits. Joining us from new orleans is. Teve reilly his new exclusive is headlined hundreds allege donald trump , doesnt pay his bills. Steve reilly, welcome to democracy now what evidence do you have for that . Tell us these individual stories. The broader context, usa today started by gathering the history of litigation involving donald trump and his companies more than 3500 lawsuits which involve trump copies of the last several decades. Our most recent article we looked within that body of litigation at lawsuits involving allegations of nonpayment against
Donald Trumps<\/a> companies specifically, more than 60 lawsuits along with hundreds of other mechanics, liens, judgments, other filings which indicate there are allegations donald trump has not paid contractors, workers, employees for their services. So i can talk about specific examples. Iel article discusses the fr
Cabinetry Company<\/a> based out of philadelphia which did work on the casinos in
Atlantic City<\/a> in the 1980s. They built registration desks, slot machines. There is a dispute at the end of their work about 83,000. The allegation is that donald trump did not pay the company for the work, which eventually contributed to the bankruptcy of that company which employed in the 1980s. S amy lets go to paul friel speaking to usa today [captioning made possible by democracy now ] he did some work for a contractor,eneral for a hotel called harrahs that trump bought. Donald said, well, honestly, we owe you the money and we are willing to let you be happy with what you paid on the contract and or, you can simply take amy steve reilly, expand on that. The company decided, you know, what they do is that what approved a punch card by the general contractor. The work was essentially approved, according to the gentleman who just spoke, paul friel. They went for the final payment and were called into a meeting with donald and robert trump and were told, youre not going to be paid the final invoice of about 83,000, but you are welcome to come back and do future work for the trump organization. Cabinetry, and he tried to recoup the money and hired a lawyer, but dropped any attempt to regain that money because of legal fees eventually. After that, paul friel related of the company was unable to find work in
Atlantic City<\/a> from that point on. Amy you talk about juan carlos who own the paint spot in south florida . Thats another example of a company. This is a case that is still ongoing that is disputed of her paintwork done at the doral resort in florida. Theres a foreclosure proceeding and a dispute over payment for the work there. It is still going on right now. Amy you also talk about trumps companies having been cited for 24 violations of the fair labor standards act since 2005 for failing to pay overtime or minimum wage according to the u. S. Department of labor data. Can you talk about what you found their there . Those are dispute since 2005 over back wages and overtime and minimum wage. Trump, as a result of those cases, without paying back wages in both cases to some of his hourly employees at
Trump Mortgage<\/a> and one of his casinos. Amy steve reilly, i would to turn to audio of your interview with donald trump will stop you raised allegations by dishwasher and other hourly employees who said they were not paid fairly by trump. The article mentions a couple of allegations i believe a dishwasher a couple of other hourly employees and some department of labor citations for violations of the fair labor standards act. Unpaid overtime . When is this . U. S. Labor
Department Violations<\/a> were in 2005 and 2008. 10 years ago. Steve. S ago, i have thousands of employees. Youre talking about a dishwasher from 10 years ago. You dont sound like youre going to be very good to me out of thats ok. I treated him fairly, steve. How do you respond when a reporter from a newspaper that you respect also talks about a dishwasher 10 years ago saying he did not get paid . Write not fair reporting. I pay my bills on time. I am proud to do it. I one of the best records in the country for paying on time, steve, ok . So your company doesnt have any systematic effort we pay everybody what theyre supposed to get paid and we pay on time. We employ thousands and thousands of people. Amy steve reilly, i want to play one more x with your interview with donald trump. Yet people who say you allege they did shoddy work in response to that, youre comforted did not pay them at all. Have ale do bad work, we contract i actually pay on time and even ahead of schedule is people do good jobs. Steve, if somebody does a bad job, as far as im concerned im a they violated their trust and their contract. You understand that. I pay my bills on time. Im proud of that. I am a believer of that. Amy steve reilly, your response, that again, donald trump being interviewed by you for usa today . We heard mr. Trumps response to some of these cases. That, you know, indicates that he did not make full payment or his companies did not make full payment for work is a case where the work was late or incomplete or shoddy. That does contradict some of the allegations that we reviewed, you know, especially the friel story that they were invited to come back and do future work, that type of story was related by a couple of other contractors as well. And also, regarding the u. S. Department of labor violations, you heard mr. Trump did not directly speak to those. He feels it was 10 years ago, we did notue, but get a full, you know, response as to his feelings about those late payments to hourly employees. Amy as you write with your reporting coinciding with
New York Times<\/a> reporters we were talking to, the taj mahal, records released by the new
Jersey Casino Control Commission<\/a> in 1990 show at least 253 subcontractors were not paid in full or on time, including workers who installed walls, chandeliers, plumbing. This is also what you found, russ and charles. I think what had
Million Dollars<\/a> worth of claims at the taj mahal in 1990, 1991. Amy how much . I think what hundred
Million Dollars<\/a>. It created a huge turmoil in the community and
Atlantic City<\/a> because a lot of these were small businesses. When you dont get 83,000 and then you have to go hire a lawyer to fight for you, you can bankrupt a small business. Amy what was
Donald Trumps<\/a> response to your article, russ . He did not question any of the points at we made some of that he pulled a lot of money out and is revenue lagged behind other casinos, nor that he shifted his personal debt onto the shareholders in his casinos. Some of the more specific things, he said he did not recall. The thing he stressed over and over again that he wanted to make sure that everyone who thought about is understood was that he personally made a lot of money from the casinos. And he wasnt too concerned that other people might have not done well. Amy were going to turn to one of your former colleagues, a new xpose in the daily beast called new evidence donald , trump didnt pay taxes. Joining us from rochester, new york,
David Cay Johnston<\/a> these to work at
New York Times<\/a> now reporting for the daily beast another publications. David, what did you find . Donald has done a good job of trying to give a number of things out of the
Public Record<\/a> and shut down investigations, but i found two tax appeals he filed from the year 1984. One with the city of new york and one with the state. In one of these two cases, donald filed something called the scheduled c, what a freelancer files. He reported zero income and 626,000 of expenses with no receipts and no documentation. That is something that could be construed as tax fraud. During the hearing, which lasted whodays, the cpa and lawyer had done
Donald Trumps<\/a> taxes for years was shown the tax return and he said, well, that is my signature, but i did not prepare that tax return. Was a photocopy. Of course, you can put a name on a document with a photocopy machine. My first big reporting award was for just such a device used by a corrupt michigan politician. Nottrump organization did respond to any of my questions. The trump campaign. Donald was hit in one case with a 35 realty and in the other case, the 25 penalty was not applied only because nobody could find the original tax return, which i think suggest that a photocopy is what was mailed in in the first place. It also shows in this two cases and the year 1984, donald paid no federal income taxes and theres good reason to think he doesnt pay them now because of a provision in federal law that allows large instant professional to live without paying income taxes. Amy in may on
Good Morning America<\/a> donald trump fielded questions from
George Stephanopoulos<\/a> it out his tax history. What is your tax rate . None of your business. But i find very hard to pay as little tax as possible. Amy
David Cay Johnston<\/a> . Well, i think that tells you the way he snapped at the question that donald has no intention of producing his tax returns. If elected president , he wont do so. Addingmn showed how by one line to the tax code, congress could make public the returns of president ial candidates who appear on the ballot from any state. 1920s, tax returns were
Public Record<\/a>. Theres no reason not to do this. Those republicans who are very distressed about mr. Trump, i would think, might be very interested in this as a way to bring forth the things that trouble them. Amy you said it quickly before that clip, go back to why he doesnt have to pay taxes . Because if donald is anywhere near as wealthy as he claims to be, and donald has acknowledged under oath that he basically makes up numbers that make him look good if yes enough depreciation from his buildings, he is allowed to use that to offset income from the other things like selling ties made in china and running golf courses. Effectively, he didnt get a zero interest loan from the government on his taxes. My column in march, i showed how if trumps numbers he is publicly said were true, then he stands to make about 130 million net profit off his income taxes from a single year. The taxes would have only been 23
Million Dollars<\/a>. Amy you write, the tradition of president ial candidates disclosing their tax returns has an august purpose, making sure another criminal is not a heartbeat from the presidency or in the oval office. You note the
Disclosure Commission<\/a> space to winnsboro active resigned as
Vice President<\/a> 1973 been pled guilty to attacks from. Elaborate on this tradition. When
Richard Nixon<\/a> was in the white house and famously said im not a crook and his tax returns were audited, he released tax information. It turned out his tax returns were in fact corrupt. His tax lawyer went to prison over it. Agnew resigned as
Vice President<\/a> of pledged to a felony involving tax crime. That is the reason candidates have been releasing returns since then. For example, we have
Hillary Clinton<\/a> of bill clintons tax returns going back to the 1980s. By the way, they changed the way they did a tax returns because of an article i wrote in
New York Times<\/a> showing they had paid more than twice as much federal income tax as a law requires, even know they paid almost 10,000 that year for tax advice. Amy again, congress, youre saying, could with a very easy one
Line Movement<\/a> to the tax code force donald trump to reveal his hand . What they would do a sibley direct the
Internal Revenue<\/a> service to post the tax returns that it has online for any president ial candidate who appears in lets say 10 or more states. That is an objective standard so it would apply to him or clinton, donald trump, and gary johnson, and perhaps some others. Trump no doubt would try to challenge it as a bill of attainder, which the constitution prohibits but if it is objective standard, that should not stand. I dont see any reason not to do this. I think would be a great public in effect because donald trump signed those tax returns under penalty of perjury. His assertion that he cannot release them because he is being audited or not only absurd, but what about all of his returns up to the year 2011, which are no longer under audit . I fought my fellow journalists for not asking him, where are your 2011 and earlier tax returns, since they are no wonder no longer under audit . You write, tax returns were
Public Record<\/a> and newspapers routinely reported the precise income and tax paid by prominent americans. What changed . Well, some of those prominent americans did what wealthy people always do. They spent some money getting people in congress to change the law. That would not happen anymore. I think it is a good disinfectant, but in this case, im proposing would only make them public for president ial candidates who are going to appear on the balance of pick a number, 10, 15, or 20 states, and the government being the one doing the disclosing. To know our need president or the people we are going to vote for as president are not crooks. Amy deeply donald trump engaged in outright tax fraud . I think there is incredibly strong evidence of that. I think that it explains thoroughly donald reasons for not disclosing. Thework that was done by other three reporters who have been on the show, all about things ive been intimately familiar about, is excellent and accurate work. Donald has a long history of not paying people, saying things that are not true not just to the news media, but under oath of not paying his bills, of stuffing his own pocket while shorting other people. And to donald, theres nothing wrong with that. His own reality. Donald is a narcissist. And you and i exist for only one of two purposes, either to adore donald or to be a foil to build more support from those people who are door donald. Amy we have to leave it there.
