>SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- California legislation that would require presidential and state gubernatorial candidates to release their tax returns in order to appear on the state's ballot cleared a significant hurdle, passing the State Assembly with an overwhelming majority vote.
>SB 27, co-authored by Senators Mike McGuire and Scott Wiener, was approved by the State Assembly Monday with a 57-17 vote, according to McGuire's office. It will be heard again in the State Senate this week, and if approved, will head to Gov. Gavin Newsom for his signature.
i have to hope that these people have better things to do this would spend a decade in court up to the scotus they all know this but they do it anyway. california is such a joke
Kevin Lee
Now if only States had any power over the federal government that would mean something
Carter Gonzalez
this niggers are insane
Landon Cox
Tenth Amendment gives them the right to do that - there is no Federal law against it, so the States have the right to do so
Ethan Turner
>states >controlling a federal election
They get a say, yes, but this is all saber rattling. Besides, didn't that one he-bitch maddow or whatever spend around a year pissing and moaning about this same thing, finally got some and it turned out to be fucking nothing?
if he has nothing to hide he will release them. unless there just happens to be some russian payments or money laundering going on in there...HMMMMM
Gavin Walker
This means absolutley nothing. BECAUSE TRUMP HAS PREVIOUSLY BEEN ON THE SAME BALLOT. They changed the law after he was elected. They cannot keep him from attempting to be re-elected.
Robert Collins
He won 2016. He is the President. And you're a snowflake for not accepting reality.
Chase Sullivan
youtube.com/watch?v=V3gxPVjQ8v0 SHILLS BTFO TRUMP SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER TO COLLECT INFORMATION REGARDING CITIZENSHIP ON CENSUS
>they can't use any gov't services Is that why they're on welfare?
Lincoln James
He was already on the fucking ballet. He won the fucking election. You cannot turn around and change the rules to not allow him to run. Trump has already passed more back ground checks then anyone on this website combined. The Presidential candidates already have to disclose personal info. He has done that. Trumps taxes? None of your fucking business. He made the money. Go be a jealous bitch elsewhere.
Jacob Green
Kill yourself FBI nigger, or better yet hopefully some American Redneck will gun you down with his AR-15.
Adrian Taylor
Not on the census retard. He caved on that! and instead ordered federal agencies to turn over any information they collect (or have) It will have nothing to due with the Census or allocation of Representatives or $$
Blake Miller
Wrong
Josiah Brooks
Explain to me how this works legally. I'm ignorant enlighten me.
Justin Clark
False
Matthew Lee
They do actually. Each state runs its own election, then uses the results to send the electors to DC to vote. That said, this will get struck down as it basically is saying "a candidate's 4th amendment rights must be violated in order to run for president, an action with already enumerated requirements in the Constitution." Also even if by some miracle it wasn't struck down, it would just mean Trump wouldn't be on the ballot in CA, he'd lose the popular vote, and liberals would whine when he still wins.
Michael Adams
Ahh, if only the rest of America was filthy, with shit covered streets, free needles for junkies, free health care for illegals, highest tax rate in the nation, socialist democratic utopia like San Francisco or a MS-13 haven like Los Angeles in Commiefornia. Getting rid of Trump and making sure the elections only favored one party would make everything soooo much better, right shillfag?
Aaron Thomas
Democratic strategy, if you can't win playing by the rules, change the rules. Always cheating cocksuckers
>california eternal blue hellhole >what'stheincentive.jpg
Samuel Taylor
Proof? I am ignorant enlighten me.
Alexander Murphy
imagine being so fuckin dumb you believe this....
Connor Clark
I remember reading that many states require more signatures for any party other than the big two to even appear. Some don't even allow anyone else on the ballot at all.
Jaxson Hughes
I'm not sure what they think this will do. Dems don't want to show their tax returns either and they are the ones that matter on the California ballot. Well, I guess their media pals will openly lie about them, and claim anything found in theirs is a right-wing conspiracy, so maybe it doesn't matter.
Jason Smith
all of the affected will be BTFO, do it, i wanna see how much of a fair share old bernie puts into the pot.
William Allen
The only people that have been shitting in my face are open border anti-white shitlibs like you.
Dylan Morgan
>he caved! Cope. Hope you don't have too hard a time answering that question on the next census lol
Thats not how it works and every Candidate since Nixon disclosed their tax returns. He's not on any ballots for 2020 yet. What backround checks? I bet he drops out anyway
Christian Martin
>not even through the senate >writing a news article about it Jesus fuck I want reporters to die. They always do this dumb sensationalist shit.
Samuel Barnes
Why do you think anyone is required to show the entire country their tax returns?
Jack Rogers
CA trying to meddle in the election
Robert Rodriguez
>option A: release tax returns, get on ballot, lose California >option B: don't release tax returns, don't get on ballot, lose California
>implying a republican being on the ticket in California makes a difference at all Democrats could nominate a turkey sandwich in California and it would win in a landslide
It's the reverse. There's no reason to do so. There is no valuable data for the public that can be gained through them that can't be gained without invading their privacy. That said, I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to it, if there wasn't such a Jew stranglehold on the media.
Hunter Wright
>John Podesta not toasting at his own party
Lucas Brown
Good idea
Julian Green
I don't think Trump being on CA's ballot would make a difference one way or the other.
Cameron Jackson
So Trump cannot appear on ballot if he doesn't release his tax returns? Taking into account elections aren't by popular vote, what's the point?
Nolan Long
Both of those are state government, and they've already been banned from talking to feds about illegals. The amount of information the EO will be able to gather is likely very low.
Landon Myers
It would count towards the popular vote, which, if he lost, they would use as an excuse to push for abolishing the electoral college. Once that's gone and the popular vote determines the presidency, they'd just start stuffing the ballot boxes with votes every illegal in the state, whether or not they even tried to vote.
Angel Collins
these retarded MIGA boomers trying to force narration that releasing tax returns is a bad thing >just die already
dank flex by the state for its' internal elections pretty much they want to constrain the repubs in the state as much as possible to make it a liberal mecca within the country, and the state doesnt realize that its federal importance to the union is waning
Joshua Fisher
What a dump.
Alexander Myers
Mass reply since you're all so God damn dumb you don't realize this hasn't even passed the senate of California. Not to mention it violates the constitution. Please fucking end your lives for replying seriously to this bait thread. You're dumber than God damn journalists.
Landon Smith
the apple jobs guy is actually john pederasta
William Thomas
>Would revealing them even matter at this point?
It wouldn't. The media will find something to mislead their puppets about, but to people who actually pay taxes, ie Republicans and Independents, won't find anything that would change their vote. It wouldn't change anything substantial, and would be more of a problem for Democrats than him.
Isaac Hill
Weren't they already release. And for fuck's sake, can people stop reddit spacing. We're halfway through summer. Can't some of you fuckers learn?
Tyler Nguyen
I'm guessing that you didn't watch him in the Rose Garden today, where he had Barr say it was not going to be on the Census (while dtrumpf was standing next to him) You retards believe that illigals are lying to get welfare and food stamps, but wouldn't lie on a census form. It doesn't matter anyway, maybe in 11 years it will be put on the form, but not in 2020
Camden Wright
they prove he had investments in russia and therefore commited multiple counts of capitol perjury. stop drinking the koolaid. just stop.
Trump has already been audited multiole times by the IRS. They are a federal agency. (Fuck off kid) Every single candidate running for President must pass a Fbi background check. (Fuck off shill)
Luis Harris
checked >and liberals would whine when he still wins. that's the best part. He won without California last time.
Michael Howard
>if you can't win playing by the rules, change the rules that what we call 'nigger baseball' around here
Noah Parker
I'm not american.
Grayson Jackson
Like it even matters if Trump is on the ballot in CA. This is a bullshit stunt.
Adam Miller
Is California actually retarded? States can't tell what the federal government has to do
Ryan Price
>every Candidate since Nixon disclosed their tax returns by choice - Trump chooses to not show his cope
Ryder Rogers
the US constitution lays out requirements for running for president. a state can't add to the requirements. this will go nowhere. thanks for playing
Sorry you were just caught in the cross fire my Brazilian friend
David King
>release and kikes nitpick and pilpul more talking points, no benefit to him >don't release and the left screeches about them for his entire presidency, making them look utterly insane to everyone else who doesn't give a shit
Jace Sanchez
Again? What? Didn't Madcow already do that? You know, that dude that has that MSNBC show?
Caleb Morales
then the state of california doesnt count toward the federal election. >wah we wont pay taxes then dont recieve aide >ahh earthquake LOL
Joshua Rogers
SON?! GET OFF THE COMPUTER AND TAKE OUT THE TRASH!
Julian Scott
CA will never vote red again who fucking cares?
Robert Roberts
It doesn't, however, say what is required to be put on the ballot.
Jaxson Ortiz
>private, personal financial information >neither presidents nor candidates are required to provide >you make a self-rule that makes no sense If you don't post a picture of yourself in 5 minutes, that means you have something to hide. It must be that you're a pedo. If you are not a pedo, you would post your picture
Brody Ortiz
KILL YOURSELF MEMEFLAG FAGGOTS
Caleb Morris
This is just performative to have the dems symbolically release theirs is 2020 and then make a campaign issue out of it.
Leo Harris
Lol as if Commiefornia was gonna vote Trump anyway.
Adrian Evans
>State legislate >Overriding anything federal lmfao K. So if a presidential candidate is from CA and running they have to release. Good thing Trump isn't living in or running from California.
Carson Martin
We know it's just a worthless stunt that wouldn't ever actually make it into law. That doesn't mean I wouldn't answer people's questions about the hypothetical. If you are mad at people replying in a bait thread, why are you drawing attention with a massive response? Fuck off wannabe board police
Gabriel King
So my state can make a law stating no one from out state can be on the ballot?
Blake Harris
pozzed blood play enthusiast Scott (((Weiner))) strikes again kikes...is nothing beyond their reach?
