Politics The most Latino congressional district in the nation is split apart under draft redistricting maps. And Trump broke with tradition by refusing to disclose his tax returns. The government released the new figures in the days ahead of Sunshine Week, which ends Sunday, when news organizations promote open government and freedom of information.

Despite getting a series of Vietnam War medical deferments for bone spurs in his feet, Trump has said his military academy background provided "more training militarily than a lot of the guys that go into the military.

Trump told The Post during the campaign that he "did very well under the military system. I became one of the top guys at the whole school. He said his parents originally sent him there because "I was a wise guy, and they wanted to get me in line.

Those who were aware of the effort to conceal Trump's records said the request set off a frenzy at the military academy. The boarding school had no formal archive at the time. Jones said he combed through the basement of Scarborough Hall on the academy's sprawling campus 60 miles north of New York and found the real estate mogul's transcript in file cabinets containing student records.

Jones said he did not know whether the original request to remove Trump's records from the files came from Cohen. Coverdale declined to say where he hid Trump's records or to identify the people who ordered him to pull them out of the school's files. But to hear, 'You will deliver them to us'?

That doesn't happen. This was highly unusual. Leaders of the academy's board from that time also did not respond to requests for comment. Nor did Cohen or the school's current superintendent, Jie Zhang. Cohen said last week that he sent threatening letters to Trump's schools, warning that "we will hold your institution liable" if any of his records are released.

In his letter to the president of Fordham University, where Trump spent his first two years of college, studying business administration, Cohen demanded that the records be "permanently sealed" and said any release was "criminality," which "will lead to jail time.

A Fordham spokesman last week confirmed that the school received Cohen's letter, as well as a call from the Trump campaign, and responded that the university was bound by federal law not to reveal any student records without Trump's permission.
