Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin signals he won't comply with subpoena for Trump tax returns, setting up court battle

There is a "difference in interpretation between Congress and us," Mnuchin testified Wednesday morning at the hearing. "That not only impacts this president and this Congress, but has a very big impact on every single taxpayer in weaponizing the IRS."

Mnuchin also testified that he has had no conversations with Trump or anyone else in the White House about the issue of whether to release Trump's tax returns. But he said he has spoken with IRS and Treasury legal teams, as well as with Rettig, who "independently concurred with my decisions."

That subpoena is just more junk mail from the dufus Dems.

Fine them.. let see how that works on them

he is a criminal like his dictator boss, hold on america because you elected a dictator that will be in power until he dies!

Steve Mnuchin used to produce movies, many of them may even be among your favorites. When you watch one of his movies, you fatten his bank account and support his agenda.

Not only is the president above the law, now the whole entire GOP is above the law...........

Of course you won't, you are the clown's monkey after all!!!

Trump and allies can not keep breaking and disregarding the law. $25,00O a day or time in jail.

hes a good man!!! Dems love to weaponize the IRS!!!

Lock the weasel up !

Please put this man in jail. He is too arrogant to be a public servant.

Put his ass in jail

Throw his ass in jail!

LOCK HIM UP.

😯

A little alone time in jail might refresh Mnuchin's memory that he works for the people of the US, not Trump.

Fine him $25,000 a day.

The Dems aren't going to do NOTHING

Arrest the bastard and put him in jail

Lock him up!! What the heck is wrong with republican leaders?

That’s just masturbation looking for a Kleenex...

We need Anonymous to get them.

Put his sucker behind in Jail nothing's to good for Steven Mnuchin,remember he flies private on tax payers money.

Throw him in prison

Then, we Lock HimUp!

Harrassment...they have no business looking at private citizen trumps taxes

Then send the bastard to jail. Not above the law.

Arrest him now.

Time to send the Sergeant at Arms and arrest him.

Good
