It is happening after a legal tug-of-war that has been going on for three years. CNN writes that it was a unanimous decision. The court rejected, without comment, Trump’s request for a decision that would prevent the Ministry of Finance from handing over tax returns for six years. Refusal to publish Trump is the only president in the United States in modern times who has not published his tax returns. The disputed documents include tax returns and information about some of the business activities of the former president. During Trump’s time as president, the ministry refused to release these papers. The Biden administration said, citing federal court rules, that the committee had the right to access the disclosures of all taxpayers, including the president’s. The document must now be handed over to the control committee in the House of Representatives, where the Democrats have a majority. Long battle Donald Trump has tried to prevent the request entirely since it came from Democrat Richard Neal back in 2019. The long battle to get access to examine the tax returns of the former president has been going on in the American legal apparatus for several years. Among other things, Trump has argued that a sitting president has immunity with regard to criminal investigations, then that extradition is a breach of privacy and an attempt by the Democrats to harm him.
