House Dems seek documents on Trump's businesses from Capital One

Democrats on three House committees sent requests to Capital One executives for documents related to President Trump's ownership of the Trump Organization.
Politico reported Thursday that the House Oversight and Reform, Financial Services, and Intelligence committees sent a joint request last month to Capital One CEO Richard Fairbanks for any documents the company holds concerning Trump's trust, which holds his businesses, and a slew of companies that comprise the greater Trump Organization.
In the letter, Oversight Chairman Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), Financial Services Chairwoman Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) and Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) wrote that their investigations pertained to “potential foreign conflicts of interest, compliance with the foreign and domestic Emoluments Clauses of the U.S. Constitution, and any counterintelligence threats arising from links or coordination between U.S. persons and other foreign entities, including any financial or other compromise or leverage over the president and his business interests."
