Appeals Court Denies Trump Effort to Shield Records

A U.S. appeals court ruled against former President Donald Trump’s effort to shield documents from the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection, affirming a lower court’s ruling, the AP reports.

From the decision: “On the record before us, former President Trump has provided no basis for this court to override President Biden’s judgment and the agreement and accommodations worked out between the Political Branches over these documents.”

An appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court is expected within the next two weeks.
