Trump's tax returns, revealed at last

Six years of former President Donald Trump's federal tax returns were finally released on Friday. They include thousands of pages of dense financial data, showing that Trump and his wife Melania paid very little in federal income taxes in the first and last year of his presidency — and suggesting that contrary to his previous claims, Trump accepted his salary as president at least for his final year in office.

The House Ways and Means Committee released the redacted versions of Trump's returns for the tax years 2015 through 2020. The report comes days before Republicans are set to take control of the House, and ends Trump's extended efforts to conceal his tax returns from the public.
