Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 The Supreme Court issued rulings in two cases related to President Trump's financial records this morning. If you're just tuning in now, here's what you need to know about the rulings: The case about House subpoenas: The Supreme Court blocked House Democrats from accessing Trump's financial records for now, sending the case back down to the lower court for further review. The case about the New York subpoena: Justices ruled that the President is not immune from a subpoena for his financial documents from a New York prosecutor. This case was also sent to a lower court for further review. What this means for Trump's financial records: Since the cases will be handled at lower courts, it all but ensures that Trump's financial documents — which he has long sought to protect — will not be handed over before the November presidential election. How Trump is reacting: Trump has sent multiple tweets since the rulings were released. He claimed the court gave him a "delayed ruling" that they "never would have given" to another president. Remember: In both cases, both of Trump's appointees — Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh — joined the liberal justices and Chief Justice John Roberts on the 7-2 majorities. https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/supreme-court-trump-decision-07-09-20/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted July 9, 2020 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted July 9, 2020 Personally I'm more concerned about those that get wealthy while in office more so than those that come into office wealthy.

I don't agree that all of their finances should be open if they have other lines of business. If I run a shoe store and decide to run for congress, I'm fine showing what I make as a member of congress, but you have no right to know what's going on in my private business.

It's a fraud case where the prosecutors have asked for evidence that they ask for in similar cases day in day out. The prosecution may be political but breaking the law is breaking the law. They may not be able to indict him while in office but Jan of 2020 or 2024 they can. And IMO there is zero question he has at some point committed tax fraud, pretty much everyone in his business has most just aren't worth chasing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
