NY AG Letitia James Says Trump Investigation Will Proceed Whether President Wins Reelection or Not
With three days until the U.S. presidential election, New York Attorney General Letitia James on Saturday confirmed that the state's investigation into Donald Trump's family and business will proceed whether he's president or not.
Speaking on MSNBC, James reminded host Ali Velshi that New York has been conducting an investigation into the Trump Organization "related to financial impropriety."
"We will continue that investigation, and at this point in time there's nothing more that I can say other than the fact that they have used every legal attempt to block and to deny us information and to witnesses," the attorney general said. "We filed requests to compel and we were successful."
When asked about whether Trump has any avenues of "immunity" to shield him from the probe, James noted that the president's legal team "raised a number of defenses" in response to the state's motion to compel.
"But they were all denied by the federal court judge and our motion to compel was successful," she explained.
