BREAKING: Federal Judge Strikes Down Trump’s Lawsuit to Block Congress from Getting His Tax Returns
A federal judge on Tuesday struck down Trump’s lawsuit to block Congress from getting his tax returns.
US District Judge of the US District Court for the District of Columbia, Trevor McFadden, a Trump appointee, dismissed Trump’s case to keep the Treasury from giving his tax returns to the House Committee on Ways and Means.
Judge McFadden said even if Trump is right on the facts. he is wrong on the law.
“A long line of Supreme Court cases requires great deference to facially valid congressional inquiries. Even the special solicitude accorded former President does not alter the outcome. The Court will therefore dismiss the case,” the judge said in a 45-page memorandum.
