Democrats from the House and Senate have told a federal judge they'd like to begin pursuing President Trump's personal financial records and corporate records next month as part of a lawsuit over his business properties

The request has not yet been approved by a judge. But if the timeline is approved, this case would add yet another layer to various pursuits by members of Congress of Trump's financial history.Democrats claim they did not have the opportunity to consider and approve Trump's business proceeds from foreign governments when he became President.

Democrats, in this lawsuit, say they'd like to learn"if he is receiving funds from the Trust, or if he is receiving funds from his business enterprises through other means."Congressional Democrats also said they may want to ask Trump limited questions and would seek his personal financial records, according to Tuesday's court filing.

This is wrong on so many levels. They are fishing

Instead of working for the people

About time!!

Let me translate. We can’t beat him in 2020 so our best shot is continue investigations in desperation

Why? There’s no reason for them to get them. I’d like to see financial records for all of them. They come in to office and become millionaires in just a few years. Doesn’t that make you wonder CNN? A real news organization would investigate that fact.

🙄 lol

Trump takes aim at House Democrats as they prepare to discuss impeachment callsIn early-morning tweets, the president claimed lawmakers are getting no work done and are instead harassing him. Let the HouseDemocrats pander to the radical left. They are only losing more voters who used to vote Democrat. The Senate will never vote to impeach so this show only hurts the left even more in 2020. Having Shit for Brains is believing Trump over 900+ ex-Federal Attorneys stating the Muller Report was correct about the 10 OBSTRUCTION of JUSTICE chargers that he committed, but then there are a lot of uneducated people out there which Trump says he loves & easy to control.

Judge says Deutsche Bank, Capital One can give Trump financial records to House DemocratsA federal judge in New York City on Wednesday said Deutsche Bank and Capitol One can turn over financial documents related to President Donald Trump and his businesses in response to subpoenas from House Democrats. Judge Edgardo Ramos's ruling came after a hearing at which lawyers for Trump, his three older children, and the Trump Organization argued that the subpoenas should be quashed. Absolutely hopefully they will use money laundering and fraud specialists on international level.. different law might apply in different countries...

Liberal activist group seeks to pressure House Democrats into impeaching TrumpThe growing number of calls for impeachment from activist groups could put the Democratic Party in a more politically difficult situation, with leadership concerned that such a divisive process could place Democrats in swing districts in peril come 2020. Someone needs to. They are ignoring their responsibilities. Actually, what has happened in the last week should be enough for Pelosi to decide to go ahead with the impeachment process. Notice that outside groups did not have to pressure the GOP into impeaching Clinton or investigating emails, Benghazi, Fast & Furious or IRS. Let’s face facts, Dems are not good with political power, they flinch in the face of hardball politics & bring slingshots to gun fights.
