Donald Trump

Former President Donald Trump has dropped a long-running court fight with Congress over access to his New York state tax returns, notifying a judge late Friday in a joint filing with a House committee that the new Republican leadership "has no interest" in the documents.

The real punishment lies in the potential long-term blowback to the former president's business, going beyond reputational damage to freezing it out of coveted deals, bank loans and government contracts.

The man who oversaw the finances at Trump's companies for decades will immediately head to jail after being sentenced to five months for tax fraud.

Rep. Jason Smith will lead the powerful House Ways and Means Committee.

A judge denied a request by Donald Trump, his company and three of his children to toss out New York's $250 million lawsuit accusing them of deceiving banks and insurers for years.

Highlights from the former president's returns for 2015 to 2020, from write-offs to the SALT deduction and more.

The returns include personal and business filings from 2015 to 2020, and are the first complete look into his tax records for the years he was running for office and in the White House.

The former president's returns are being redacted to remove key identifying information, such as account numbers.

The earliest the information would be released is Dec. 27.

The Internal Revenue Service would be legally mandated to annually audit the president and publish the results under legislation passed by the House.
