Judge denies President Trump's bid to block US House cmte.'s bid to obtain some of the president's financial records from his accounting firm.
A federal judge in Washington D.C. on Monday ruled in favor of the House Oversight Committee's bid to obtain President Donald Trump's financial records from his accounting firm.
"Congress plainly views itself as having sweeping authority to investigate illegal conduct of a President, before and after taking office. This court is not prepared to roll back the tide of history," he added. In his ruling, Mehta noted that the subpoena called for Mazars USA"to produce financial records and other documents relating to President Trump personally as well as various associated businesses and entities dating back to 2011—years before he declared his candidacy for office."
