In a case brought in Maryland by the attorneys general of D.C. and Maryland, Justice Department lawyers representing the president have succeeded in temporarily blocking subpoenas for financial records and other documents related to Trump’s D.C. hotel. Sullivan noted that without seeking permission from Congress, the president has received payments for hotel rooms and events from foreign governments, as well as licensing fees paid by foreign governments for his show “The Apprentice” and intellectual property rights from China.

Take him down.

MalcolmNance The fake president needs to step down. He’s a hack and he’s a distraction. He is bad for America.

In a nation permeated by addiction of all kinds, our government should not promote or pay for the use of alcohol by those that represent us! If our leaders want a drink, pay for it out of the HUGH salaries we pay you!!

Can Taxpayers get a refund for the latest Bar Bill paid to MarALago ?!

Taxes?

Amazing how a political party no longer stands for its own principles and ideas, but only spends time on how to bring the competitor down. You often see that in 3rd world countries.

They'll insist on appealing all the way up. With every single case. Suit after suit is our modus operandi. While McConnell sends judges down the assemblyline.

It’s a good news

WebbL03 this is to be expected. trump already told us how bad his grifting has been...

YES! My 1st tax March sign 2017

Another very questionable decision by a federal judge. This is another political decision as the plantiffs are Atty Generals from two hard left states with no value in the decision. These lawsuits for personal revenge against Trump for beating Hillary could cause a revolution.

The coup continues

Trump really didn't think the whole running for president thing through, did he?

Hahahahaha! More TDS. More ‘gotcha’ weak-kneed nothingness. Dragged into another Dem created fiasco, Trump will hammer the Dems and win, again. This game is harmful for America...the continual Dem illicit subpoenas prevent Trump form doing even GREATER things. Economy stellar?

Thank you! 🇺🇸

Wow Democrats are desperate,harder to be grifters when a non pol wins,uh. Check out early Predidents who had businsses

Thank You Jesus!

Justice

muadglib The Traitor is a pigroach. Repubs are his paypigs.

Should of happened over a year ago!

*Drools.*

Good result for the RuleOfLaw, the SeparationOfPowers, and CongressionalOversight.

Is something that can be appealed to the SCOTUS?

Trump's finances will come out no matter what he does.
