Supreme Court rejects appeal from company owned by an unidentified foreign government that has refused to turn over information demanded by special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation.

The Supreme Court is rejecting an appeal from a company owned by an unidentified foreign government that has refused to turn over information demanded by special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation.

The justices didn't comment Monday in turning away the company, which is racking up a fine of $50,000 a day for not complying with the grand jury subpoena for documents. Mueller turned over his report to Attorney General William Barr on Friday, but the status of the grand jury is unclear. Fines have been accruing since Jan. 15 and could total nearly $3.5 million. New daily fines stop once the grand jury is discharged.

Supreme Court won’t hear appeal from company resisting Mueller subpoenaThe foreign-owned corporation faces daily fines for not cooperating with grand jury. I don't get this either. Although I always knew nothing would be done to Trump. The US President is above the law while in office, so folks, elections matter a hell of lot more than you think. Unless he actually commits treason, he is safe from all till he is out. Something seems fishy...if there is still an ongoing legal battle about this, how can the MuellerReport be complete? A day late, a dollar short, no?
