Appeals Court Won't Step In on President Trump's Tax Returns For Now

The transcript discusses President Trump's legal efforts to delay a subpoena for his tax records, which are part of a broader investigation by the Manhattan District Attorney into alleged hush money payments and other criminal conduct involving the Trump Organization. Despite the President's claims of a 'witch hunt' and attempts to block access to his tax returns, the Supreme Court ruled that he is not exempt from subpoenas.
