Former President Donald Trump issued a statement about the Supreme Court's decision allowing the Manhattan District Attorney to subpoena his tax records, calling it a "witch hunt".
Earlier in the day, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling that directed Trump's accounting firm, Mazars USA, to comply with an expansive subpoena requiring the release of President Trump's tax records and financial documents to a grand jury, convened by Democrat Manhattan District Attorney, Cyrus Vance.
The records will not be subject to public disclosure unless criminal charges are brought against Trump and the records are offered as exhibits in the prosecution of a crime.
Excerpts of the statement follow:
This investigation is a continuation of the greatest political Witch Hunt in the history of our Country, whether it was the never ending $32 million Mueller hoax, which already investigated everything that could possibly be investigated, ‘Russia Russia Russia,’ where there was a finding of ‘No Collusion,’ or two ridiculous ‘Crazy Nancy’ inspired impeachment attempts where I was found NOT GUILTY. It just never ends!
The Supreme Court never should have let this “fishing expedition” happen, but they did. This is something which has never happened to a President before, it is all Democrat-inspired in a totally Democrat location, New York City and State, completely controlled and dominated by a heavily reported enemy of mine, Governor Andrew Cuomo.
The new phenomenon of “headhunting” prosecutors and AGs—who try to take down their political opponents using the law as a weapon—is a threat to the very foundation of our liberty. That’s what is done in third world countries. Even worse are those who run for prosecutorial or attorney general offices in far-left states and jurisdictions pledging to take out a political opponent. That’s fascism, not justice—and that is exactly what they are trying to do with respect to me, except that the people of our Country won’t stand for it.

It is time for all Americans to say no to this illigal democrat ran socialist power grab. The supreme Court has been compromised and no longer has the best interest of our country and people in its heart. It now is following a communist coward's agenda
GOD BLESS our President TRUMP
The Supreme Court is an embarrassment.
When are you ( the so call investigated journalist going to go after the real criminals in the government? After all it seems that the Democrats leadership can destroy our country and they are and you stand by and let's them do anything they want, WHY?
Trump is right. This Supreme Court is terrible!Rj
It is high time those that bring malicious charges and accusations (more than one) against citizens and which are later found to be innocent, those making the malicious charges should then be prosecuted and gaoled for a set term and damages awarded to the plaintiff?
Couldn't agree with you more! Why is it that only the accused pays a price? If you're going to lie, cheat, and steal, they by God, you should pay handsomely for your crimes against fellow citizens. This kind of stuff happens constantly, and has for countless decades in all courts across the country. Come to think of it, the police and DAs also need to be held accountable for their devious actions in "closing a case" so they can look good in the next election cycle. STOP THE STEAL of people's lives, livelihoods, and reputations.
Totally agree. This has gotten so far out of control it is a disgrace!
‘Si vis pacem, para bellum.’
The United States has been headed towards 3rd world banana dictatorship for awhile, now with the court formerly known as the Supreme, this decision to allow communist NY to take a supposedly protected exchange between the government and private citizen for political reasons is beyond the pale.
disgusting abuse of power that these democ ratts are displaying, new york is a sewer lead by democ ratts and supreme crt led by roberts has now become another branch of the swamp !! wen is this gonna stop !!!!,, and who has the balls to stop this behavior !!!! obviously “NO-ONE !!!!!!,, except maybe , We The People “ !!!!!
Supreme court that is not interested to find out details of stolen elections, or even see the thousands of proofs, which they have seen and read in private, but siding those criminals on left, continue the biggest witch hunt in world's history.
Donald J. Trump IS The Greatest President and country leader EVER, in ANY country, PERIOD
And this was said by NON-American. We LOVE President Trump !
Unfortunately the Supreme Court is afraid of the Democrats threat is expand the Court. The Democrats operate via threats. This behavior by the Democrats is only allowed because the MSM is not honest and does not care about America.
For America to survive and prosper we must have a fair, honest MSM that cares about America only. All these entities that do not care about America like Big Tech, other big corporations and the Democratic party would refrain from their behavior.
Love America first and only!!!!!
Whether people believe there is a Supreme Being called the Eternal God, those who have committedEvil having a conscience to do good or evil will have to One Day stand before JESUS CHRIST God's ANOINTED ONE. Those who have wittingly done evil to their fellow man Woman, their place will be in THE LAKE OF FIRE THAT BURNS WITH FIRE AND BRIMSTONE FOREVER!
Please bring Trump back!!!!! He is our president. The idiots that are speaking when he should be need to be gone. Where the hell is the kraken?
I have noticed since dopey Joe has been in office, not many officials call him president, but still call The Don president Trump, he told desantis to call him president but we all know what he told him, it's funny to watch all this from Australia
I am so sick of what is going on. Someone with power has got to stop this madness!!! These filthy democrats are destroying our country. If we are being run by the military, they need to dump this garbage now and get Trump back in, immediately. I don' care what history books will show, get it done now.
I do believe that in This Age both Political parties and their ideologies and the MEDIA have been weaponized , and here is the reason why. To overcome the the people and to fight
against the freedom loving sensible peoples of this earth , and for terrible evil reasons and a most Evil Purpose in order to bring FEAR and confusion! Why? In order to create CHAOS! This is Satan's plan! Paul the Apostle who met Jesus in the Spirit in a realm that many so called Christians no nothing about! However I DO. Warned us that we fight not against flesh and blood, but against Principalities, against powers , against the r Rulers of the darkness of this world. Against spiritual wickedness in HIGH places. phesians CHAPTER 6 VERSE 12 Please Be sure to read the following verse of warning!
The High places are those with status and power are empowered with a demonic spirit whose goal is to bring about the destruction of the people of this earth. The Mark of the Beast is here O6O6O6
and its in the Nano particles to change the MRNA and God given DNA! We are already in the Great Tribulation already, there is more to be fulfilled as Jesus said in Matthew chapter 24.
