Trump’s legal team, which had urged the court to intervene in the three cases, hailed the justices’ action.
In a statement, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Democrats are "confident" the Supreme Court will "uphold the Constitution, the rulings of the lower courts and ensure that Congressional oversight can proceed." A divided federal appeals court panel in Washington upheld the Oversight panel’s subpoena in October, issuingHouse lawyers said the details on Trump’s financial dealings could help efforts to tighten financial disclosure laws and to regulate what so-called emoluments presidents and other officials can accept from foreign sources.
Oh look, Donald Putin is still at it.
If he has nothing to hide and his financial statements are truly “Fantastic” as he claims, then why is this going to the Supreme Court?
pay off by Gorsuch and Kavanagh for having gotten the seats that should have gone to Garland and some other decent jurist
SCOTUS has their reputations on the line! They must vote by the law not the party! America will be watching this closely! If they vote party line they are finished & disgraced! Scotus
What is he hiding? There is nothing normal, or business as usual here. If you think it is..........
In other words , after the sham impeachment fails miserably , the Dems already have a new distraction
Wonder if snakeO’s spying will end up at SC?
SCOTUS AMERICA iS WATCHING YOU. NO FAVORTISM FOR TRUMP. YOU KNOW HES DESTROYING AMERICA AND EMBARRASSING US WORLDWIDE?! CHILDREN DYING,BEING MOLESTED, STARVING,COLD, IN HIS DRACONIAN PRIVATE PRISONS! DONT YOU DARE PROTECT HIS FINANCIAL LIES FROM BEING REVEALED TO US!!
I cannot wait for this!!!
This is bullshit
Unemployment at a 50 year low of 3.5%. But, when Trump took office, it was at 4.7% and falling. So under Trump, it has dropped 1.2%. When Obama took office, unemployment was rising, he turned it around and brought it down from 7.8% to 4.7% or 3.1%. Not Trump's economy!
Transparency and honesty. Both should be American values? It's up to you, judges! :)
IMPEACH 45, PUT HIM AND ALL HIS COWHORES IN PRISON !
For transparency, allow the records to be opened
Supreme Court ==== Friends of Trump💥
Yes indeed
We AMERICANS don't care about his taxes. We do care about the DEMOCRATS taxes
Presidential candidates release their tax returns all the time, and since he's no longer involved in the family business how would that affect the presidency? I'm curious
Presuming these cases don't go his way what sort of a plan B will he try to pull off? If the financial and tax returns destroy his claims (presumably lies) about his finances and wealth thus resulting in creditors calling in his markers, what will be plan B?
Yes, six months from now...do better. And, this is not good news.
Well, he set up the Supreme court now didn't he? He knew this was coming & surrounded himself with people that would b beholding 2 him... e.g., PartyBoyKavanaugh & THEY say the system is rigged.. Give me a break! America's finally Reached Hell in Hand basket status. 🙄 Trumped
How good could this guy be if people just left him the fk alone?
Shut them DemoRats down. As an American don’t care what Trumps taxes are He has taken a salary from our Government. He has only did good he has only giving to this Country. Dems only want it to lie about our great President
👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿
There's no law that says he has to reveal his tax records to anyone. Even the phony Russian collusion conspiracy don't give anyone the rights to his tax returns.
And after acquittal in the Senate, he will be entirely uncontrollable should the Supreme Court reverse the lower courts.
The FIX IS IN!
The Dems desperation is reaching critical mass
I pray that the court supports the Constitution and debunks the total immunity argument. We must not become a monarchy especially with a criminal president.
fraud shitweasel
I believe John Roberts will do the right thing and will side with the constitution. I’m not sure about other conservative judges.
How about we don’t let those tax return come to light and Trump resign
Give up the presidents info. Pretty sure allot for him to hide in there. Why else would he fight so hard. He is an American shame and stain.
Just another stalling tactic from the judges he put on the bench!
Along partisan lines, the Supreme Court agreed to hear three separate court cases involving demands for access to Trump’s financial and tax records
🐴💩, we have NO RIGHT to his private records or MINE. I’m sure they’ll wire tap me too if I run for any CONSERVATIVE office too. Our country has a corrupt deep state unequaled!!
Why do we give a shit about his tax return
I fear that Scotus has been corrupted and will not do an honest job. Guess we will see when JusticeRoberts is on the Senate trial.
The fix is freaking in, and Trump’s favorite beer-swilling rapey justice will be the deciding vote. Unreal.
Why the hell is this even happening? Trump PROMISED TO SHOW US HIS TAX RETURNS! what the hell is he hiding?
Outrageous
Of course they did ... his little cronies will vote the way he tells them to... the Supreme Court is no longer an independent body ... a few are in Cheetos pocket which is the same has saying : Russians pockets .
Let's see what Pelosi and nadler paid.
I hope the Supreme Court Justices side with President Trump that his taxes are not New York's business or anyone else's
SUPREME Court should hear information on the FISA abuse charges and CLINTON EMAIL INVESTIGATION. WHY WERE THEY ALLOWED TO DESTROY EVIDENCE.
In March?
Now we will see how apolitical/nonpolitical/impartial and unbiased each SCOTUS Justice is.
Well we know Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh will land. They’ll protect this criminal at all costs despite his money laundering and mafia ties. Question is whether Roberts wants this to be on his court. GOP will find a way to protect dear leader.
Why bother? Roberts probably works for trump as his AG does.
Why would Trump not want to turn over records? Supreme Court may hear it, but if they excuse a crook, it is because they are crooks too. Well we already knew 1/2 the court is pro Trump.
WHAT is DerTrumpenFuhrer HIDING
Trump and GOP has been stacking lifetime appointment judges since January 2016.
5-4 decision to pretend Congress doesn’t exist incoming.
Harrasment pure and simple.
Why? Every President is REQUIRED to disclose this information upon entry into office. What makes Twitler so special? Only a criminal refuses so many legal imperatives like an immature baby. GUILTY!!!
So much corruption going on here, I'm sure that's exactly why they Republicans fought so hard to put Kavanaugh on the supreme Court
Why are we so worried about this! What does it have to do with the fake impeachment! He earned his millions BEFORE HE RAN FOR PRESIDENT Trump is not like Obama was and pretended to give billions of dollars to foreign countries!! And then his VP Biden goes and actually bribes!
REALPopularVote It should read Supreme Court Agrees to delay the process for Trumps Campaign!
Still looking for more, anything, to use against him? Since Democrats can’t win elections fair and square. How many years have concerns been raised about Pelosi, Clintons, Obamas, etc. and can’t get those activist judges and politicians or the media to do a damn thing about it.
When he was still a candidate for president he admitted that anyone looking into his financials would 'cross a red line'. Maybe because he's a career criminal selling himself as 'successful businessman'. His SCOTUS, his ruling, right?
Thank you Supreme Court . All Americans Should be protected and never Single out for Political Bias & Favors ! Something called Privacy ! Where All Americans Personal Records are protected from News Media & Public Viewing !
Hope the time they hear this, trump will be impeached and removed and eligible for jail
Why don’t you just resigned. You may not have to show anything then. And we’d be better off without you!
I no longer have faith in SCOTUS.
Yes they agree to hear his case and according to the Constitution they will uphold what they need to opold which is his privacy
😡
DeutscheBank FollowTrumpMoney straight to the criminal.
The Supreme Court shouldn’t have taken this up.
I was hoping it would pass on these. If it agrees that access should be denied, we are lost as a democracy.
It’s Great that they’ve decided to expedite it...
Well fine and dandy, you want Trump's financial records I the records of ALL of Congress AND their children (due to Biden). Lets see who is squeeky clean and who is not. Pelosi,Biden,Kerry,Shift, and let's not forget Mitt's. I bet Trump will be ONLY 1 not guilty of embezzling
If they rule in his favor then USSupremeCourt is corrupt too because of him !
I have little faith in the Federalist Society Supreme Court.
International crime syndicate. Kavanaugh and Gorsuch are going to reward him. Our country is being taken over by the mob.
And now we will see how many of the justices are bought and paid for.
The president has said he would release his tax records after the election, wonders never cease now he refuses, just another lie again, what a surprise.
Why does Nasty Pelosi always talk about upholding the constitution when she doesn't herself? It probably has something to do with her dementia
ConmanTrump does it again.
BS. Must be one of the leftovers from Big Ears.
The Supreme Court understands the imperative of complete functional transparency & impartiality. There can be no hint or fear that the Court is weighted towards Trump, & I do believe the Court will fulfill its scotus obligations w/ fair & strict adherence to the Constitution.⚖️🇺🇸
Leave our POTUS alone
If any of you think Trump's taxes are gonna help anything you're crazy. I'm more worried about carreer politicians that are worth millions on goverment salaries. You should be looking into that.
Watch this dump ass celebrate before they even take up one conversation but I am skeptical that the greasing a judges palm will benefit trump that’s why he bought the collection of judges. I believe trump as this all planed before he ran for president a scam
This should never of been allowed ,and if they rule in his favor it's even a bigger disgrace
The most laughable part of this entire thing is if the shoe was on the other foot and this was a democrat president neither the media nor the buffoons in these comments would be complaining. Suddenly it would. Be perfectly and fine and not an issue. LAUGHABLE
We already know the court tilts towards buttrump.....
Let’s see all that funny money 💰
True colors of our system are showing us all how things work in America. If this was any other citizen of America we would not even have a choice of showing or not showing our taxes and finances. We would already be in prison because of NOT compliance with IRS. SHAMEFUL!👎
KrHarper7 Not allowing the lower court ruling to stand is very troubling.
BFD. Trump is slick and nothing will ever happen to him unless he’s voted out. We need an overwhelming landslide against Trump in November or he’ll be suing everyone he can.
Nothing to hide but the Russian loans, Saudi Loans and crimes,
I'd love to know what realDonaldTrump is hiding. He said he would release his taxes, so why is he fighting so hard not to? This is not the behavior of an innocent person.
Winning
President is doing such an awesome job for our country. Can’t you all leave him alone for just a little while.
You folks want something.... anything.... to sling at Trump. What you have done so far has failed. Wonder why? You should just sit out his term like we had to Obama’s. We’re still waiting on his birth certificate but we’re not sore losers like you dems are.
Question is, if these records are clean, why go through this whole effort to hide them? The answer is obvious, Trump is a career criminal and doesn’t want the world to know he is owned by Russian Oligarchs and also isn’t a so called billionaire.
Dk what the big deal is; trump said during the campaign that he has no problem releasing his tax returns!
Well, we knew that was coming.
Well then everything stays hidden. His hand picked judges will protect him.
F politico
Lock him up! Lock him up! Shame! Shame! Shame!
F the Supreme Court
Well that sounds about right. Don’t we deserve transparency under the constitution? And if not, how do we practice democracy. Seriously.
This is like the 6th time realDonaldTrump has taken this case to another Court after losing his case in the last court. This is Trump's tactics to drag out legal proceedings. He did the samething when a 13 year old girl accused him of raping her. He's a criminal.
Well, after the SCOTUS sides with Trump it will set a precedent for future candidates/President’s that they will be able to forgo showing financials...... Don Jr preparing for 2024...
Trump's tax records will help explain why he deep-sixed the Kurds. Bolton already hinted that Trump's governmental decisions are guided by his personal financial interests. In the meantime, I am done with tax filings until Trump releases his tax returns.
Why so secretive, Donbabyhands? realDonaldTrump
This might be enough to push him to resign. 🤞
1. What is realDonaldTrump hiding? 2. The Manhattan DA & Congress (House) subpoenas are “investigative subpoenas” issued to his accounting firm Mazars USA, not directly to the president. tRump will need to fight his case in NYC & DC Circuit Courts.
Criminal trumps & republiCON's bought Supreme Court!
So ridiculous that the Supreme Court is being asked to protect realDonaldTrump financial and tax records. What is he afraid of? presidentPathetic PresidentConman DumpTrump2020
Got to love a president that has to go all off the way to his rigged supreme court to break a campaign promise.
Unless he has something to hide what is the problem
Yeah Hooray!
We All Know The Real Reason He Never Released Them....
Exactly why is the “most transparent president ever” filing appeals to keep his Tax Returns from being released?When will Trumpublicans admit their leaders are just plain Dishonest?
Trump if your a honest man you would release Tax Records to Congress!! Honest men do not hide Taxes and stop Subpoenaed Records or People from Testifying to Congress! National Security is Bullshit! Can be testified to Congress behind closed doors with lawyers sworn silence!
The compromised SCOTUS gets to decide if America is allowed to see if the Traitor in the WH is a tax cheat criminal laundering money for the Russians. We are screwed
Why SCOTUS? Why?
Gr3Te4rights A stall and tactic!
This is a travesty
Sad that I have no faith they will do the right thing. First time I've ever felt this way about any Supreme Court case. 😣
WOW 😯 !! They know he is corrupt !! We will be watching how this turns out !!
Congress might win a case like this if they can prove a verifiable legislative reason, but Congress, itself, has limited the ability of others to obtain personal income tax information in 1976 sec 6103 'improper purposes'. I doubt that a state can win one of these.
Hand Em over thug
Spilt in favor of Trump.
It was RBG who halted the subpoenas pending whether the SC would hear the appeal. They decided they will.
Time to lobby the states to basically have a requirement to be on the ballot a candidate must release their tax returns.
About fucking time. Let’s the games begin :)
I wish our federal government was as intense in working on problems for the American people as they are on the impeachment bullshit...
gumboqueen3030 Now would be a good time to find out who paid off all Kavanaugh's debts? There was never a good answer to that question.
Let's hope the judicial arm is still standing.
I don’t give a damn about his taxes. How bout y’all GET AL SHARPTURD to PAY HIS TAXES!!!!!!!!!!!
Mr. Transparent?
Imagine if they had denied cert without comment. Nope. The SCOTUS is begging for democrats to completely reform the court when they're in power.
Of course so they can help the criminal Trump. This is really what the forefathers wanted 🤔 CrooksInTheWhiteHouse
We the people will demand to see every congressional members’ tax forms, financial statements, a list of all the donors who give them money to run their campaigns & mental evaluations. For all persons who are paid with our tax dollars.
liberal obession with realDonaldTrump ‘s tax return is ridiculous. So dnc is questioning the trust worthiness of the irs ?
And let’s see if the court will magically find a way to side with Trump in all 3 cases. What’s happening under this asshole is pure insanity
😀
When all else fails move on to the tax records that have been read multiple times and nothing found.The democrooks are grasping at straws(except California where straws are illegal)they have yet to produce a single syllable of impeachable crimes but hey lets vote to impeach!
Trump 2020
If there’s anything we know about this administration, it’s that they’re corrupt as fuck. I wouldn’t be surprised if Barr and Chief Justice Roberts already have planned meetings including senatemajldr. Buckle up Patriots.
Doesn’t matter the SC is stacked for *45 Bought and paid for
The Court should have avoided this mess as there is no disagreement between lower courts. The arguments of Trump are beyond idiotic. Roberts has a hand grenade he does not want or need. Good luck.
Finally it’s about time
I just really want to know what he’s hiding. No one fights that much unless they have something to hide. TrumpCheats Showuswhatyourehiding
Straight bills*hit. They lock up the working man for traffic violations, but this crook can steal, siphon, assault, and break the law in countless ways. The American justice system is a JOKE.
Jeezus H tap dancing Christ, 45, just release your taxes so we can done with all this. What a waste of the court’s time!
What is so important about Trump's financials and tax returns, this is driven by the Democrats, if they make Trump show his financials and tax returns, all the politicians in Washington needs to release theirs to!
I’m curious why Bush v Gore was able to be heard so much quicker and this has to be heard only after the Impeachment hearings? Sounds like just more Trump home cooking to me.
Is it time to take to the streets in protest yet?
I’m taking a break from Twitter. After the SCOTUS decision all I feel is disgust. My last hope for justice and integrity died, and I’m furious. I bet my (very low) blood pressure is probably off the charts. I think its probably at 125. Arrrgh!
We vote the con man out, prosecute him to the fullest extend of the law. Best outcome he ends up in jail!
Crazy the amount of real cases the SC turns down and yet they pander to this idiot whos using the courts for everything he deems unfair
No it’s stupid stop invading the man personal stuff it’s I don’t care about his personal stuff it has nothing to do with him running the country which his has done an amazing job 😍 leave the president alone stop the nonsense now enough already realDonaldTrump and dbongino
🤦♀️
Bart O'Kavanaugh has to earn his pay!
Why it seems like just yesterday POTUS
Of course, thanks to the enemy of the state MoscowMitch, the judicial system has been weakened to be a check on things like this - he must be removed in 2020
Such time, energy and money being spent because realDonaldTrump refuses to do what ever president before him has always done. He is corrupt and a total disgrace to the office and the country.
SCOTUS didn’t even have the courtesy to fast track it. Knowing how partisan SCOTUS has become, this will get decided after Trump leaves office, making the cases moot. I had a bad feeling about this. Suspected this was gonna turn out this way. Actually worse; no fast tracking.
That answers it, they have to consider all three. The SC doesn't have time to beat the same dead horse.
Those scumbags are going to have this thief hide his finances from the voters even as he decides on billions of dollars of project funding ?
Bullshit
