                              Tax Returns

  On tax returns, yesterday a Federal appeals court ruled that Congress 
can seek 8 years of the President's tax returns. No doubt, the 
President will appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court in an effort to 
keep hidden what the President has been hiding for as long as he has 
been in public life--his tax returns.
  Why the President has engaged in such an astounding breach of 
transparency is still unknown.
  President Trump, what are you hiding?
  The DC Circuit's decision--an 8-to-3 ruling--was clearly the correct 
legal result. It should be upheld.
