The former president and the new candidate in the Republican primaries in the race to recapture the White House, Donald Trump, apparently suffered a severe blow to his political future today (Tuesday) when his request to stop the legislative moves of the Congress on the issue of alleged non-payment of taxes was rejected outright.

The US Supreme Court ruled that there is no justifiable reason to deny lawmakers access to IRS documents, meaning the documents that Trump submitted annually to the federal tax authorities.
As a reminder, in 2019 the House of Representatives ordered the US Department of the Treasury to hand over the information about Trump because of the suspicion of irregularities in the business of the then president.
Although the dry law obliges Congress to submit, the request was denied at the time because Trump was president, but in 2020 the request was resubmitted, which led to the filing of an appeal to the legal courts claiming that he has the authority as a former president to prevent the handing over of information as part of the separation of powers.
Be that as it may, as mentioned, the last stop ended on Tuesday and now he will be forced to reveal the confidential parts, which may prove or disprove or abuse the American tax system illegally in the framework of his various businesses.
