The president could play a legal game that could keep the battle brewing even longer than his first term in office
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP, who pledged in April to fight “all the subpoenas”, has been dealt another blow in his battle to keep his tax returns private. In May, a federal judge in Washington, DC refused to quash a subpoena directing Mazars USA, the president's accounting firm, to give eight years of financial records to the House of Representatives.
The dissenting judge on the panel, Neomi Rao, saw things differently. A recent appointee of Mr Trump, Judge Rao wrote that the majority’s view of the case “breaks new ground” by blessing the subpoena “as part of the legislative power” when its true design is to investigate “allegations of illegal conduct against the president”.
