This subpoena is for his tax returns and the Trump Organization corporate records from 2015 and 2016. It also ruled that since the subpoena's not to him, it's to his accountants, it doesn't require him to do anything that might be disruptive to his job as president. All this is pretty much consistent with what a trial judge ruled when the president sought to throw out the subpoena. What happens next will probably be an application to a single justice of the Supreme Court to stay, to stop the effect of this decision, until the Court can decide— Who is this justice? That'll be Justice Ginsburg because she is assigned by geography to hear appeals from federal courts coming from this circuit, the second circuit. Why, if I'm a US sitting president, why am I not immune from prosecution? Ah, great question. This does not address prosecution. This addresses investigation. No one is immune from the government investigating their behavior. In this case, the behavior being investigating occurred before he was president. That's what caused the court to say there's no immunity. The court expressly did not rule – DID NOT RULE – on whether a sitting president can be prosecuted by a state court. The answer to that is he probably cannot but that's a guess from me. So they request from the accountants-- I have 30 seconds here: Ginsburg does what and what happens after that? So if she stays the effect of the decision, then the Court has all the time it wants to decide whether or not to hear the appeal. If she doesn't stay the effect of the decision, I would imagine the president would then appeal to the entire court asking for a stay. If no stay is issued, then the subpoena's going to be complied with. Remember, it's not a subpoena to him, he can't physically stop it. So it's November 2019— Yes. How's this play out time table-wise? If the Supreme Court were to hear this, I think they would hear it on an emergency basis, meaning before Christmas. This is Fox News' senior judicial analyst Andrew Napolitano delivering yet another blow to the White House as he explains the implications of Trump's latest loss in the judicial system. Trump had previously sued the Manhattan DA's office to block a subpoena it sent to his accounting firm, Mazars USA, for 8 years of his tax returns. And in case you haven't heard the argument that Trump's lawyers made in court, his private attorney William Consovoy argued that a sitting president has “absolute immunity from criminal process of any kind,” that he cannot be prosecuted or even investigated while in office, even for shooting someone on the streets of Manhattan. And this assertion came in response to Trump's own statement from 2016, in which he said that he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and not lose any voters. And so obviously, Trump's lawyers decided that they'd ACTUALLY try and argue this defense, that Trump could indeed kill someone in broad daylight and not only could he not be prosecuted for murder, but that police wouldn't even be allowed to INVESTIGATE him. This might be a good time to remind you that Trump ran on a platform of “law and order.” And I know you're not gonna believe this, but somehow this defense didn't hold up. US District Judge Victor Marrero not only dismissed the lawsuit brought on by Trump but called his assertion of temporary presidential immunity “repugnant to the nation's fundamental structure and constitutional values.” He went on to say that such a position “would constitute an overreach of executive power.” And I know what you're thinking – Donald Trump? Overreaching his executive power? Never. Trump's team appealed that decision only to find that the 2nd US Court of Appeals, in a unanimous 3-0 ruling, upheld the district court's decision ordering Trump's tax returns to be released pursuant to the Manhattan DA's subpoena. At this point, the ONLY institution that could still stop Trump's taxes from being released is the Supreme Court. And you have to admit that there's some poetic justice in Justice Ginsburg being responsible for deciding whether or not to issue a stay on the ruling, given that the White House has been falling over itself the bury the 85-year-old liberal justice despite the fact that she's still very much alive. The Trump administration reportedly began preparing to replace Ginsburg after she simply missed oral arguments one time at the beginning of this year. Imagine missing work on Monday and your boss plans a candlelight vigil in your memory that same day. With all of that said, that's not to say that Justice Ginsburg won't rule fairly because, unlike the entirety of this administration, there are still some vestiges of the federal government that value, you know, our democracy. And I know Republicans, in their desperation to protect Trump from any and all accountability, will claim that the release of his tax returns is nothing more than a partisan witch hunt, but there's serious significance in allowing the release of Trump's tax returns. In this specific instance, the Manhattan DA is investigating Trump's role in illegal hush money payments for his affairs. And keep in mind, while this might seem minor compared to the REST of Trump's crimes, that doesn't mean it doesn't count. Michael Cohen is literally in prison for his role in this scheme. And not only did Cohen administer those hush money payments, but Trump reimbursed him, meaning Trump made undisclosed contributions to his own campaign AND because the payments were disguised as legal fees, Trump very likely deducted them on his tax returns as a business expense, which is tax fraud. But the only way to find that out is, you guessed it, by seeing his tax returns. But beyond that, knowing where Trump's financial interests lie is also a matter of national security. It might help explain things like, for example, why he might've completely rolled over for the Turks and allowed them unfettered access to attack our allies, the Kurds, and whether it just might have anything to do with the fact that Trump owns property in Istanbul. Knowing where Trump has financial interests might be helpful so we have a little advance notice when we're suddenly going to let the people guarding the ISIS prison cells be subject to attack by a hostile foreign power. And so now, our attention will now turn to the Supreme Court, where the justices will have to decide whether to shield a president who believes that he has the right to commit crimes uninhibited while he's in office, or if our laws and national security supersede Trump's superiority complex.
