Another opportunity to destroy US democracy

The Supreme Court will hear arguments in the landmark separation of powers fight over access to President Trump’s financial records on March 31, the court announced Friday.

The dispute involves separate efforts by House Democrats and New York state prosecutors to obtain years of Trump’s financial records and tax returns.

A blockbuster ruling on the extent of presidential immunity in the face of congressional oversight and state prosecutorial power is expected by late June, just months ahead of Election Day.

Congressional oversight has been strangled into a coma.
