VietPress USA (May 22, 2019): Yesterday, the New York Times reported that anti-money-laundering specialists at Deutsche Bank flagged multiple transactions involving Trump and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, in 2016 and 2017.
Trump was angry and strongly criticized the New York Time after the paper reported that anti-money-laundering specialists at Deutsche Bank flagged multiple transactions involving him and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, in 2016 and 2017, and recommended they be reported to a federal financial-crimes watchdog.
Trump refuses to provide any Bank statements and his banking details as well as his Tax returns.
The Democratic Lawmakers and two House Committees subpoenaed last month to request Deutsche Bank AG and Capital One Financial Corp to provide
bank documents related Trump, three of his children and the Trump Organization.
Today, U.S. District Judge Edgardo Ramos ruled at a court hearing in New York that Congress has the legal authority to demand the records, clearing the way for the banks to comply with subpoenas issued to them by two U.S. House of Representatives committees last month.
Donald Trump, his three children and his Trump Organization lost their bid to block Deutsche Bank AG and Capital One Financial Corp from providing financial records to Democratic lawmakers.
