I most certainly don't trust "Chief Justice Epstein Island" who wrote the majority opinion re: Trump's tax records. But isn't it possible this decision helps patriots? I mean, if you can subpoena a sitting president, you certainly can subpoena FORMER presidents. Hint, hint.

 

"The president can still contest the subpoena on other constitutional or legal grounds. Wednesday’s ruling only means that he does not enjoy blanket immunity from subpoenas issued in connection with state criminal investigations and is not entitled to heightened protections against such subpoenas."

 

"“Two hundred years ago, a great jurist of our Court established that no citizen, not even the President, is categorically above the common duty to produce evidence when called upon in a criminal proceeding. We reaffirm that principle today and hold that the President is neither absolutely immune from state criminal subpoenas seeking his private papers nor entitled to a heightened standard of need,” Roberts’ opinion states."

 

What gives more more concern, however, is that the liberal commie judges sided with Roberts on this, at least on the face of it (i.e., RBG may have given totally different reasons for siding against Trump on this).
