WASHINGTON | A federal judge in Washington has ruled against President Donald Trump in a financial records dispute with Congress.

Judge Amit Mehta’s ruling says Trump cannot block the House subpoena of financial records.

The decision comes amid a widespread effort by the White House and the president’s lawyers to refuse to cooperate with congressional requests for information and records.

That's right Trump you crooked nitwit. Congress has oversight powers to stop idiots like yourself from becoming dictators. Trump is too clueless to understand what the separation of powers means. He might as well have taken an oath on a piece of soiled toilet paper.

There is this thing called the Constitution. Trump and many Trumpers think it applies to everyone else but themselves.

They only care about their twisted version of the 2nd amendment.

Did you see the picture of Trump when this came out ? He looks like his best friend just died.....except, he has NO best friends !

What a crooked idiot he is, thinking he can run this country like he ran his real estate businesses...….into the ground.

Link to the actual decision, if anyone wants to read it. It appears that it wasn’t even a close call.

The you-know-what is going to hit the fan. Releasing the documents from Deutsche Bank, where it is alleged that Kushner and Trump engaged in questionable money transfers to and from Russian individuals (laundering?), just might uncover criminal conduct. And we have 5 bank employees who say Kushner, on behalf of Trump, did some very suspicious transactions.


Popcorn time coming up...

yep.

"It is simply not fathomable that a Constitution that grants Congress the power to remove a President for reasons including criminal behavior would deny Congress the power to investigate him for unlawful conduct — past or present — even without formally opening an impeachment inquiry,"


- Judge Mehta

Good! How the hell can Congress have the power to impeach Trump but Trump thinks they can’t investigate him? The man has a block for brains.

Well I'm preparing to hear how Mehta is an evil, liberal, activist judge. Especially in contrast with Bill Barr who is the vanguard of truth and justice. LOL.
