    Trump’s tax returns from past 10 years show he received money from Russia twice — for Miss Universe pageant and property sold to a Russian billionaire – By Ken Thomas and Darlene Superville l May 12 2017

    WASHINGTON — Lawyers for President Donald Trump said Friday that a review of his last 10 years of tax returns did not reflect “any income of any type from Russian sources,” with some exceptions.

    It’s the latest attempt by the president to tamp down concerns about any Russian ties amid an ongoing investigation of his campaign’s associates.

    The attorneys did not release copies of Trump’s tax returns, so The Associated Press cannot independently verify their conclusions. Their review also notably takes into account Trump’s returns from only the past 10 years, leaving questions about whether there were financial dealings with Russia in earlier years.

    In a letter released to the AP, the attorneys said there was no equity investment by Russians in entities controlled by Trump or debt owed by Trump to Russian lenders. But it reflected some exceptions, including income from the 2013 Miss Universe pageant that was held in Moscow and a property sold to a Russian billionaire in 2008 for $95 million.
