A federal judge in New York ruled Wednesday that two banks that did business with President Trump must comply with congressional subpoenas seeking access to his financial records. The House Financial Services and Intelligence committees have requested the documents from Deutsche Bank and Capital One to investigate possible “foreign influence in the U.S. political process." Trump’s lawyers had asked the judge to temporarily block Congress from gaining access to the records. It also comes a day after Trump blocked former White House lawyer Don McGhan from appearing before the House Judiciary Committee. State lawmakers in New York approved a measure Wednesday to make those documents available to congressional committees.
