Hillary Clinton ally David Brock has again offered money for information on President Donald Trump.
Brock, a Democratic operative who founded the progressive group American Bridge, said Tuesday night he is offering a $5 million reward to anyone who can provide him Trump's "complete, legally obtained tax returns."
The two tweets were in response to MSNBC host Rachel Maddow's report that same night on Trump's 2005 tax returns, which revealed that the president earned $153 million and paid $36.5 million in income taxes that year. Brock echoed many Trump critics who were disappointed Maddow's report did not reveal any damaging information about Trump, writing that he was left with "more questions than answers."
Maddow just opened the floodgates. Last year, I offered a $5m reward for anyone w Trump tax returns. Offer stands for new information.

Last year, Brock posted a plea on the website of Correct the Record, a super PAC he operates, asking for damaging audio or video of Trump yet to be released. Brock made the request during the 2016 presidential campaign and offered an unspecified amount of money.
Correct the Record's website claimed that, in order to make educated decisions about the candidates, voters needed to see "video or audio in the form of prior television or radio interviews or more candid video from events a candidate may have attended."
"TrumpLeaks is an effort to uncover unreported video or audio of Donald Trump so voters can have access to the Donald Trump who existed before running for president and before his recent affinity for teleprompters," Correct the Record said. "TrumpLeaks can provide some compensation to those who have usable, undoctored video or audio that has been legally obtained or is legally accessible."
Brock has continued his campaign assault since Trump was elected president. In January, he pitched his plans to use Shareblue, a media platform he owns, to take down Trump through impeachment at a private retreat for Democratic donors.
