Getting his tax returns won’t do them any good because they are written in RUSSIAN.

“Okay, didn’t a district court just put a hold on this subpoena? My, how fast cases move through the system when leftists are at the wheel.”

That is certainly what I thought. Either this is somehow different or there are a lot of people here that don’t have a clue. Because you are the only one who mentioned it.

Yeah. He entered the Senate with about a hundred grand in his accounts and left with several millions.

This means anyone’s tax info can be provided to corrupt dems in DC.

Serving a subpoena to German banks, subject to German banking laws, hmmmm. . .politically motivated supoena grasping for Trump’s info and trying to force the banks to bow to congress, yeah, right. . .so, if a German bank subpoenas the US government to provide info on Merkle’s banking, “bite me” comes to mind.

Yeah, yeah. . .post 9-1-1 changes to laws took place but that was aimed at terrorists, not politicians for political purposes, since what are the charges again. . .politics

SCOTUS issued a stay on Nov. 26 pending a writ of certiorari by Dec. 5th.

Not sure why NYPost is publishing a late old news nothingburger. More TDS, I guess.

Here’s the referenced WSJ article published NOVEMBER 25!!!!

WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court granted President Trump’s emergency request to suspend enforcement of a congressional subpoena seeking his financial records from his accounting firm, a move that could keep the documents from House Democrats for months—if they see them at all.

But in tandem with blocking the subpoena for now, the court signaled Mr. Trump would have to move quickly with his appeal, ensuring the president can’t delay proceedings through the 2020 election.

Someone more legally savvy than me please explain how a federal appeals court can overrule the Supreme Court?

This is the only thing that I can figure.

It appears that both Congress and Manhattan are after Trumps returns. Modern day reporters are very lazy and ignorant. And sometimes they deliberately intend to mislead. It sounds so much better for them to say “Congress” instead of “Manhattan”.

I believe that the previous case that got delayed by the supreme court had to do with Manhattan. And this one has to do with congress. But I am not positive.

Congress, New York, and California. California tried to impose requirement that POTUS could not be on ballot without revealing tax return. Court ruled that out.

Disgusting bunch of DimBulbRATS.
