Judge orders Trump accounting firm to turn over records.

"History has shown that congressionally-exposed criminal conduct by the President or a high-ranking Executive Branch official can lead to legislation."

"It is simply not fathomable that a Constitution that grants Congress the power to remove a President for reasons including criminal behavior would deny Congress the power to investigate him for unlawful conduct -- past or present -- even without formally opening an impeachment inquiry."

As a historian, I appreciate that Judge Mehta opened his decision with a quote from James Buchanan's (IMHO the 2nd worst president in history) objection to a Congressional action in 1860.

The judge denied the Trump legal team’s request for a stay pending appeal.
