ONE, "And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."

I have a feeling someone will be embarrassed.

If you leftist do get to see Trump's financial records you are going to be embarrassed that you are not intelligent enough to make the kind of money he has made, and to have paid more in taxes than you could have made in a lifetime. Your king and queen had to steal, and corrupt their way along, even stealing from the White House along the way. what about those poor Haitians that were robbed out of their money that disappeared while the clintons held the bag.

This is for FeuxNose. I'd love to get a peak at Trump's transcripts, he must be hiding something since he won't release them.

Obama’s college records are not “sealed” by a court order, as this graphic would have you believe. It would be illegal under federal law (the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974) for Occidental, Columbia or Harvard Law School to give any former student’s records to reporters or members of the public without that person’s specific, written permission. Obama hasn’t released them, but neither have other presidential candidates released their college records. George W. Bush’s grades at Yale eventually became public, but only because somebody leaked them to the New Yorker magazine. Bush himself refused to release them, according to a 1999 profile in the Washington Post.

Just because Mr. Trump and his son in law are making a lot of money from foreign countries that might hate us don't mean it ain't legal. Some are just jealous that they ain't smart enough to cash in too.

Honestly, though, I’m pretty sure Drump and his Drumpfettes knew this would happen. He’s just going to stall as long as he can.

They never got Obammies transcripts or college records or Willies medical cocaine records so I doubt they will be successful getting Trumps financials.

Maybe justice will prevail.

A federal district judge has told the accounting firm Mazars it will need to turn over Donald Trump's accounting records from before he was President to the Democratic-controlled House Oversight Committee.

In a 41-page opinion, Judge Amit Mehta of the DC District Court rejected Trump's attempt to block the committee's subpoena, asserting that Congress is well within its authority to investigate the President.

Mehta's opinion will now likely become fodder for other judges to consider as Trump and his Cabinet try to hold off Congress from getting his business records, such as through the IRS, banks and in other court fights.

Congress specifically can probe the President for conflicts of interest and ethical questions, Mehta wrote.

"History has shown that congressionally-exposed criminal conduct by the President or a high-ranking Executive Branch official can lead to legislation," Mehta wrote, citing the Watergate investigation by the Senate.

"It is simply not fathomable that a Constitution that grants Congress the power to remove a President for reasons including criminal behavior would deny Congress the power to investigate him for unlawful conduct -- past or present -- even without formally opening an impeachment inquiry," he added.

"The court is well aware that this case involves records concerning the private and business affairs of the President of the United States. But on the question of whether to grant a stay pending appeal, the President is subject to the same legal standard as any other litigant that does not prevail," Mehta wrote.
