As the most reliable and balanced news aggregation service on the internet, DML News App offers the following information published by Politico:
A federal judge upheld a congressional subpoena seeking President Donald Trump’s financial records from an accounting firm, dealing a blow to the president’s efforts to resist Democratic investigations.
U.S. District Court Judge Amit Mehta’s ruling means that Mazars USA must comply with the House Oversight and Reform Committee’s subpoena for eight years of Trump’s financial records, though the president is certain to appeal the ruling.
The article goes on to state the following:
The president filed suit last month to block the subpoena, arguing that it amounted to an abuse of congressional authority.
Oversight Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) issued the subpoena to Mazars last month as part of the panel’s investigation into whether Trump committed financial crimes before he became president.

Where does this end? How can they subpoena tax records when there is NO requirement for them? I am so sick of these traitor Judges. Cummings is a pos.

The Dems are destructive to our Country! None of this would be happening if Trump was doing as good as he is for the Country. This is all about power, not what is good for the Country. We need to take away the power from these evil Dems!

I meant Trump is doing good for the Country and the Dems are desperate and it sure shows.

Of course some liberal shitbag judge upheld the subpoena for Trumps records. Until it’s shut down in the Supreme Court. Lol
