Supreme Court orders Trump financial records released to NY prosecutors
The US Supreme Court has ruled that US President Donald Trump must hand over financial records to prosecutors in New York.
In a 7-2 ruling, the court says the president does not have absolute immunity from criminal investigation.
“Two hundred years ago, a great jurist of our Court established that no citizen, not even the President, is categorically above the common duty to produce evidence when called upon in a criminal proceeding,” the court says. “We reaffirm that principle today.”
