Justice Dept. again sides with Trump over House in personal financial records fight
The Trump administration's Justice Department has again taken President Donald Trump's side in a fight between him -- as a private citizen -- and the US House of Representatives over subpoenas for his personal financial records.
The Justice Department argues the two banks shouldn't have to hand over the subpoenaed information and accuses lawmakers of not taking the correct steps to seek the documents.
This is the first time the Justice Department has spoken up in this subpoena fight. Its foray into the case comes as House Democrats' attempts heat up to get Trump's financial records and to consider formal impeachment proceedings of the President.
On Friday, the 2nd US Circuit Court of Appeals is scheduled to consider whether two banks, Deutsche Bank and Capital One, will have to turn over Trump's information to House committees. Judge Jon Newman, a Jimmy Carter appointee, and Judges Debra Ann Livingston and Peter Hall, both appointed by President George W. Bush, will hear the arguments.

that DOJ has taken that position. With Barr there we have NO person representing the Constitution, just the Dickhead-in-Chief.
It is a shame that we have to go to court for these issues, but this is a battle for the Constitution, the Congress, the balance of powers, and the actual existence of the United States of America (not to be over-dramatic, but really, it is!).
If the corruption has spread that far, we're screwed....... 
Words we never thought would be uttered!
