In the span of a week, the Trump administration has stonewalled a number of inquiries for information to be made public. But the refusals to provide information to Congress and the public go beyond that.
Washington Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed he's the most transparent president in American history, but just in the span of a week, his administration has stonewalled a number of inquiries for information to be made public.
The lack of transparency includes refusing to share how much the Secret Service has spent protecting the President and his family, a detailed and consistent justification for the targeted strike that killed Iran's Qasem Soleimani, key Ukraine-aid related documents at the heart of the impeachment case and an undisclosed White House meeting with a top Saudi official.
