Trump finances

In addition to his disputes with scientific experts over his self-medication and the source of Covid-19, President Trump is in another, behind-the-scenes, battle. Two committees at the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives, as well as New York prosecutors, have demanded financial records from two banks that did deals with Mr Trump - Deutsche Bank and Capital One - as well as from Mazars, the president's accountants. Trump's lawyers have resisted, and the cases have been taken to the Supreme Court, which will rule within the next few weeks.

ICIJ investigations suggest that neither the President nor his connections will want this area of his interests floodlit.
