Schneiderman has had the trumps in his crosshairs for quite a while and as he has been recently re-elected it's not going to end any time soon

will dig up something on him to use to try to criminalize him with. He always done this to people who threaten him in any way. Lets hope he doesn't resort to putin tactics he uses against his opponents.

Sources with links to New York State justice and law enforcement report that Eric Schneiderman, the Attorney General of New York State, had Donald Trump, Donald Trump Jr, Eric Trump, and Ivanka Trump, under legal direct surveillance for some time at state level on an Enterprise Corruption case against Russian mobsters.
People are only looking at FISA. They forgot state law, one source said, speaking on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matters discussed.
The RICO case specifically, Enterprise Corruption, the name given in New York state law, formed the basis of the existing sealed indictment against Donald Trump presently at the Eastern District Court of Virginia. FISC retains some jurisdiction, but what precisely, sources did not specify.
The way in which Attorney General Schneidermans state case became a Federal indictment was reported exclusively by me at Patribotics. RICO and Enterprise Corruption cases are typically principally on financial and other crimes such as money laundering, corruption and so forth. However, in this case, there were also national security implications, which is why FISC took jurisdiction of the case from Schneiderman once it was determined that it touched upon Federal issues. Mr. Schneiderman dismissed his case at state level in order that his evidence should form the basis of a federal case. As a state Attorney General, Schneiderman did not need a judges permission to do this.
