1. 'The requests were filed Friday in a U.S. District Court in Maryland, as part of discovery

in the civil suit alleging Trump violated the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution, according to NPR.

D.C. Attorney General Karl Racine and Maryland Attorney General Brian Frosh claim in the lawsuit that Trump is profiting from foreign governments without congressional approval due to foreign officials staying in his hotel.

Trump has tried to have the case dismissed, but U.S. District Judge Peter Messitte ruled in July that the lawsuit can go forward.'
