Supreme Court Delivers Trump Victory and Defeat

Supreme Court justices say Manhattan prosecutor can see President Trump’s personal financial records.

Washington, D.C. (Thursday, July 9, 2020) – In two separate rulings today, the U.S. Supreme Court delivered a mixed bag of decisions for President Trump about his business and financial affairs.  The high court in a 7-to-2 decision ruled a New York prosecutor can in fact see President Trump’s private and business financial records.  The decision ends an intense legal battle by Trump to keep those records under wrap.

Moments later, justices ruled unanimously blocking Congress from getting Trump’s financial records, sending the controversial case back to lower courts.
