The Trump family and Trump Organization are suing Deutsche Bank and Capital One to block them from handing over financial records requested in congressional subpoenas.
Deutsche Bank was subpoenaed earlier this month by the House Intel and Financial Services Committees.
Attorneys for the president said in a statement tonight the subpoenas are “unlawful and illegitimate” and that “every citizen should be concerned about this sweeping, lawless, invasion of privacy.”
