IRS hacked Clean, “Come Clean Geraldine”), democratic Vice Presidential nominee Geraldine Ferraro

Come On DNC - Tax Filing Releases, something not important before, In August of 1984, yielding to increasing criticism of her family’s questionable real estate dealings (you may remember the slogan “Come Clean Geraldine”), democratic Vice Presidential nominee Geraldine Ferraro released 6 years of tax returns. As nearly every tax lawyer understood (and a few of them tried valiantly to explain) Ferraro’s failure to release the partnership tax filings that were the source of her family’s income meant that her return disclosure was meaningless. The journalists naturally reported that she had demonstrated her finances to be above reproach. Her husband later pleaded guilty to fraudulently obtaining bank financing in a real estate transaction.
