Although President Donald Trump won the dispute over complying with congressional subpoenas for his financial records, he wasn’t happy that he had to hand over his tax returns to the Manhattan district attorney.

The commander-in-chief let his frustration be known to all via Twitter. (Mediaite)

President Donald Trump on Thursday called an effort to get his financial records “a political prosecution” by “corrupt New York” after the Supreme Court ruled investigators in the matter could move forward.

Writing in subsequent messages, Trump said, “We have a totally corrupt previous Administration, including a President and Vice President who spied on my campaign, AND GOT CAIGHT (sic)…and nothing happens to them. This crime was taking place even before my election, everyone knows it, and yet all are frozen stiff with fear.”

He also took a shot at the Senate Judiciary Committee, led by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), and Obama-era intelligence officials who spearheaded previous investigations into his administration: “No Republican Senate Judiciary response, NO ‘JUSTICE’, NO FBI, NO NOTHING. Major horror show REPORTS on Comey & McCabe, guilty as hell, nothing happens. Catch Obama & Biden cold, nothing. A 3 year, $45,000,000 Mueller HOAX, failed – investigated everything.”

Trump subsequently deleted the tweet before posting a message singling out former President Barack Obama and former Vice President Joe Biden, writing, “We have a totally corrupt previous Administration, including a President and Vice President who spied on my campaign, AND GOT CAUGHT.”

Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito were the Court’s only two dissenters in the case between Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. and Trump’s accounting firm, Mazars.

In your opinion, which Supreme Court decision has the most significant implications?

  • The ruling that Trump’s accounting firm must hand over financial records to Vance.
  • The ruling that Congressional Democrats cannot obtain Trump’s tax returns.
  • The ruling that half of Oklahoma, including Tulsa, is actually under Native American jurisdiction.

  1. Why are these other crooks not charged with anything, but President Trump is under constant watch at all times. He must be doing something right. All these judges, Democrats, want to run him through the mill, but Biden, Graham, Obama, Comey, Mueller, Shift, Nadler, Pelousi, Hillary, and many others nothing happens. Really amazing. Just proves how corrupt all these individuals, people in power are. There seems to be no offense for anything they do. I guess these military personnel are always doing things wrong though too. They need to go to jail if they do something wrong? Congress doesn’t. There is so much corruption everyone is covering for everyone else in politics. What a life. W.S.

    1. They were elected to their offices and they continue to get re-elected. So who’s at fault? I submit that it is the ignorant voters that elect them that are fault.

  2. Everyone of those crooks are looking out for each other it makes me sick Graham is the biggest of all he is sneaky as a snake!!!!

    1. They are ALL “sneaky as snakes”, that is how they got to where they are! And, We the People are DUMB enough to keep putting them there. Yes, lindsey graham is one of the biggest, if not THE biggest RINO of all; he opposes Trump at practically every turn. Must be he gets one of those BIG soros paychecks like the rest of the NEVER TRUMPers!

  3. I will still vote for Trump regardless of what these crooks do or say. Sounds a lot like 1862 doesn’t it.

  4. Dropping the president, and this decision, from my comment I have said before, and I stand by the statement, the Supreme Court and their appointment for life is the biggest scam in government. While I can agree that a president may have the power to appoint a judge it should be for a specified time limit (say 5 years). After that the individual judges should have to justify their position under the election laws. They should be put on a ballot and if the public rejected them they should be removed from the court. No position should be for life unrestricted. That’s what PUTIN just did for himself in Russia.

  5. The only solution is to rewrite senate and congressional rules. TERM LIMITS AND NO OUTSIDE INVESTMENTS OR OTHER MEANS OF GAINING WEALTH. NO MORE PERKS.

  6. It is no one’s business what our President ‘s tax returns say. He doesn’t even keep his paycheck! After all the corrupt nonsense from the previous President and vice president..and not even being held accountable..talk about being one-sided and unjust. I am so sick of it..you know, if these so-called leftists aren’t happy here..please just leave! The majority are just fine with the United States of America! Go start your own country and leave us to ours!

  7. TRUMP is correct. They have been after him for years and he is being treated different then all of the other political officials. If they want his tax returns it time for all elected officials to put their tax returns in the public eye. Let’s see Chuck and Nancy’s tax returns first. How do you get to be so rich on a salary of just about 175,000 per year. Not the 100’s of Millions they are worth. If they really believe in the rule of LAW than let’s see theirs first.

  8. You watch…when these corrupt attorneys have his tax records, so will the press and then the congress. Then SCOTUS will say … Gee wiz… who would of guessed? Oh well…too late now!!!

  9. First, think the Justices better remember that they have just ruled that “Non-Disclosure” is now open to review by the legal system. We should now subpoena all non-disclosures in the US Congress and the respective tax records of EVERY member of Congress. If it right for the President, then it is certainly right for the Swamp Snakes.

    Next, since the court decided that they wanted feather the nest of lawyers with the Oklahoma decision, think we should settle this big reparations issue with the BLM by awarding them California, the whole state, not just half. If they want more, New York is available.

  10. Please wait until I can get out of here! And as for the Oklahoma issue, I think it is funny as the devil that the court ruled the way it did, and now maybe the Congressional failure to do anything over the course of many years will come home to roost, at least there.

  11. Half of Oklahoma is less than the 15 million acres that was promised in the treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek in 1830. The terms of this “treaty of perpetual friendship” made the trail of tears possible. Our people were to be safely conveyed from Mississippi to Indian Territory which became Oklahoma. The terms of the treaty were horribly disregarded and so many loved ones died on the journey. families were not even allowed to stop long enough to bury the dead, or slow down for the old ones or babies. It is long past due for the government and the courts to start trying to comply with the treaties they signed and the guarantees they made.

  12. President Trump will win re-election, the gop will win back the house and the senate will gain gop seats! If the republicans don’t impeach Roberts and all the commie federal judges, this will be the last time they will ever hold power!
