The political persecution of Trump continues.
Just one day after the FBI raided Trump’s Florida residence, a court ruled that the former president’s tax returns must be released to the House Ways and Means Committee.
A panel for the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia ruled 3-0 on Monday, upholding a prior decision by a federal judge.
Trump will likely take this fight to the Supreme Court.
CNBC reported:
Former President Donald Trump’s tax returns must be turned over to the House Ways and Means Committee, a federal appeals court panel said in a ruling Tuesday.
The 3-0 decision is the latest legal blow to Trump, who has repeatedly lost efforts in federal and state courts to shield his tax returns and business-related documents from various investigations.
The appeals panel said the House committee had the right under the law to obtain Trump’s tax records from the U.S. Treasury Department.
The decision upholds a prior decision, by a federal district court judge, which was issued in December.
