Washington-Sana
Time newspaper revealed today that the US Supreme Court will consider the legitimacy of President Donald Trump's refusal to submit his tax data to Congress and the judiciary in a case that may lead to the identification and restriction of his presidential immunity.
The newspaper stated that during the first series in the framework of the case that will be held from tomorrow, the nine members of the Supreme Court will put their questions over the phone to the lawyers of the parties concerned, in a legal conflict between it and the Democratic deputies, which observers believe will negatively affect Trump's upcoming presidential campaign.
Trump, who made his fortune one of the foundations of his election campaign, is the second American president after Richard Nixon to refuse to reveal his tax status, which sparked controversy in American society, especially among the Democratic Party, and many speculation about why he refused to submit his tax returns even before he won the presidential elections in November 2016.
"There is something in these documents that the president does not want to see," commented Professor Stephen Mazi, political scientist and American author.
Several committees have directed requests to the accounting office "Mazars" and Deutsche Bank "and" Capital One "to obtain Trump financial documents dating back to the period between 2011 and 2018.
New York Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance also made a similar request to the Mazars office as part of an investigation into paying porn actress Stormy Daniels to buy her silence about a hypothetical relationship with Trump.
Trump immediately turned to the judiciary to prevent the delivery of these documents, considering that those requests were "illegal" and that he was "a victim" of a "campaign of persecution" against him.
