President Trump slams Supreme Court decisions on tax returns

Trump says he is the victim of a 'political witch hunt'; reaction and analysis on 'The Five.'

Former President Trump asked the Supreme Court on Monday to block the release of his
tax records to Democrats on the House Ways and Means Committee.

The House Ways and Means Committee first requested six years of Trump's tax returns in
2019.
