Trumps tax lawyers cut ties as he leaves office and reports say federal prosecutors already have his recordsDonald Trumps legal troubles began mounting before he could even step foot out of the White House on Wednesday.
Reports indicated early in the morning on Inauguration Day that federal prosecutors in New York had obtained some of his financial records amid an investigation into the former president and his private business.
Those records were obtained despite the Supreme Court having not yet made a decision on whether Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr can demand eight years of Mr Trumps tax records from his accounting firm, Mazars USA.
While the district attorneys office was still waiting for an order from the nations highest court on its subpoena powers, Bloomberg News reported the new developments meant investigators can begin verifying criminal allegations against the Trump Organization and former president.
Ah, the Trump IRS audit con job is coming to an end.
