Rumor has it that the IRS may have files that many taxpayers would consider private in nature.

But please feel free to post your last 10 year's of tax returns here if you feel like that is being overly-sensitive.

DOGE Has Entered the IRS

Oh, great, maybe those Trump tax returns that have been sitting for years at IRS "under audit" will finally get "audited" by very competent DOGE people and can finally be disclosed... for sake of "transparency" that both Trump and Musk cherish so.

Musk must be doing "God's" work - DOGE || E-GOD

Thanks for your "assurance" that they have already been "audited"... so, if they are no longer "under audit" why couldn't/can't we see them? Every other president had no problems producing them.

You know, in the name of "transparency" - that's what DOGE is supposedly doing, according to "very very special government employees" (Musk and Trump) and a number of other undisclosed "special" DOGE people (like "Big Balls" who had previously been fired for leaking sensitive info from cybersecurity firm to competitor) who are apparently excluded from "transparency" because "they themselves can decide" who has or doesn't have conflicts of interest, needs or doesn't need security clearance, who gets "divine forgiveness for 'human errors'" - applied by "very very special government employees" only to "very special government employees," but not real government employees or non-government employees/non-employees or...

transparency - the quality of allowing light to pass through so that objects behind can be distinctly seen; the quality of being easy to perceive or detect

It's quite transparent that transparency is the last thing on Trump's, Musk's, "MAGA" minds.

Trump's tax returns again, they were already stolen / leaked for all to see

Oh, don't play dumb and deflect. One "stolen (?) and leaked" return (which wouldn't be necessary if Trump were "transparent") from many years ago now constitutes "transparency" and we don't need to remember, ask or mention Trump's tax returns "under audit"? That's from/by a known conman who constantly talks about "corruption," "fraud" and "criminality" of anyone who doesn't sing praises to "their favorite Emperor" - who apparently "has no clothes" according to one 4-year old who saw him up close and personal in the Oval Office?

So what you're acknowledging here is that DOGE really is Musk-run hacker organization, weaponized specifically to look into IRS files with the goal of finding dirt on people in Trump's "enemies list" and even disseminating it online (most likely using Trump's own eX-Twitter - the cesspool of propaganda and fake "news"), to intimidate or embarrass them?

...

BTW, your / DOGE / Musk's / Trump's effort of shjvt-spreading misfired miserably already:

atlantablackstar.com - MAGA's Smear Campaign Backfires Again As Jasmine Crockett Shuts Down Absurd $9M Net Worth Claim from DOGE Fan Page - The outspoken Democratic representative from Texas is on the defense once again, calling out the latest slander against her as "dumber than bricks.":

|------- ... Clearly, her attackers are throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks " and for now, they seem to be having a difficult time of it.

... Just last week, disgraced MAGA influencer Ryan Fournier spun an elaborate lie that Crockett illegally diverted $500,000 of government funds to her "husband." For the record, she's not married, and Fournier quickly deleted the post once she called him out on social media.

... "All the while Elon is robbing the country blind... stealing from your farmers, grannies, and children, all while somehow getting hundreds of millions more in government contracts," she wrote, adding, "But y'all outraged about a easily disprovable lie and unfazed by an absolutely undeniable corrupt truth."

Here's the real numbers:

Elon Musk "found" 50 million US dollars buying condoms for Gaza, which he said Hamas was using in bombs.

One problem, USAID only spends 8 million or so on global condoms a year.

So it's obviously not true. Yet you would swallow that obvious lie without any proof and shamelessly repeat it.

Seems like you are an idiot and would slurp up any Trump lie that he spews out his trump hole.

Only the Gawds know why.
