A federal judge on Monday ordered Donald Trump’s accounting firm Mazars USA LLP to hand over eight years of the president’s financial records before he took office to the House Oversight and Reform Committee.
While the judge said that there are “limits on Congress’s investigative authority,” he noted that “those limits do not substantially constrain Congress” as long as they investigate “on a subject matter on which ‘legislation could be had.’” “We believe strongly in the ethical and professional rules and regulations that govern our industry, our work and our client interactions,” the spokesperson added. “As a matter of firm policy and professional rules we do not comment on the work we conduct for our clients.”
The president, a real estate developer and television host before he took office in 2017, has repeatedly refused calls to release his tax documents, a move at odds with the practice that all former presidents, with the exception of Gerald Ford, have abided by since Richard Nixon. Ford released a summary of his tax documents.
The Judge should have to hand his over. The Democrat's & Rino's in Congress should have to do the same. Especially Cummings
morgfair They won't
A federal judge should not be able to order the President to do anything .
Yes! Please cross reference Trumps financial records with Deutsche Bank records to see the laundered Russian money before and since taking office. Bank fraud, insurance fraud, huge fraud - the biggest.
An Obama appointee of course. And his decision, like so many other of Obama's appointees, will be overturned by SCOTUS Nothing to see here.

Trump will pitch immigration plan already facing stiff opposition in CongressPresident Trump will unveil a plan Thursday to add border security and foreign workers and reduce family ties, but not a bill with bipartisan support. In other words the same crap he’s been pushing - nothing new and no specifics - short simple phrases for his base. Goodness - if it were the exact same plan and was announced by Obama, the LAT's would be shrilling support for it. Sounds like more family separation
