The Democratic-controlled U.S. House Ways and Means Committee on Wednesday received six years of former President Donald Trump's federal tax returns, ending a three-year battle in which the 2024 Republican presidential candidate fought fiercely against sharing documents that every one of his predecessors since Richard Nixon have disclosed.
"Donald Trump has finally run out of places to hide," wrote Jason Easley and Sarah Jones at PoliticusUSA's The Daily. "For years the speculation about what is in the tax returns that Trump had refused to release ran rampant. Was he really broke? Did he take money from foreign governments? Did he commit crimes? There were so many questions, and now the answers could finally be arriving."
