The White House has released a statement in response to Rachel Maddow tweeting earlier tonight that she has Trump’s tax returns from 2005.

The statement, sent out to multiple news outlets tonight, starts out by saying, “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.”

It goes on to share information about President Trump‘s taxes.
