The White House says President Donald Trump made more than $150 million in income in 2005 and paid $38 million in income taxes that year.
The acknowledgement comes as MSNBC host Rachel Maddow says she has obtained part of Trump’s 2005 tax forms.
The White House is pushing back pre-emptively, saying that publishing those returns would be illegal.
It says, “You know you are desperate for ratings when you are willing to violate the law to push a story about two pages of tax returns from over a decade ago.”
The White House adds that it is “totally illegal to steal and publish tax returns” and is bashing the “dishonest media.”
Trump refused to release his tax returns during the campaign, claiming he was under audit.

If she wasn’t perpetuating the poisoning of Jewish neshamos. I’d almost feel sorry for her.
A 1.5% return on investment.
What a successful businessman…
Rachel Madcow has to be brought up on charges for being an accessory to a crime.

BREAKING NEWS!!!!!: Trump paid $38,000,000 in fed taxes in 2005
Rachel Maddow is a goy.
To No. 1…
huhh?? What does Rachelah have to do with yiddeshe neshamos?? She is a very progressive journalist/TV host on MSNBC who is a lot smarter than Hannity on Fox but equally out of touch with the mainstream of the electorate. In any event, what was the big deal about 2 pages of a 12 year old tax return showing Trump paid a higher effective tax rate than both Obama and Clinton.
Gadolawhat
You are an imposter. You’re defense of her lies and anti torah outlook is because she’s smarter than Hannity, a true friend of the Jewish people? You are demented and most certainly worse than she is to Jewish neshamos!
