Wells Fargo and TD Bank have turned over President Trump’s financial records to the House Financial Services Committee, Fox News confirmed on Thursday, amid a contentious legal battle between the Trump administration and congressional Democrats seeking access to sensitive files. The committee, led by Chairwoman Maxine Waters, D-Calif., is one of several panels that have issued subpoenas and requests for Trump’s financial files. FEDERAL JUDGE RULES BANKS MUST COMPLY WITH SUBPOENAS FOR TRUMP FINANCIAL RECORDSNBC News first reported that Wells Fargo turned over a few thousand documents to the committee, and TD Bank provided a handful. Meanwhile, the House Ways and Means Committee is seeking the president’s tax returns, and has issued subpoenas for the files. Political candidates aren’t required to disclose their tax returns, though traditionally all candidates do.
