New York attorney general sues Trump Organization

New York Attorney General Letitia James is suing the Trump Organization for $250 million over its business practices. James claims the company manipulated its property valuations for years in an effort to game the system. CBS News investigative reporter Graham Kates and CBS News legal contributor Jessica Levinson discussed the significance of the suit, and CBS News congressional correspondent Scott MacFarlane explained the impact it could have on the company moving forward.

I’m not a Trump supporter but if we truly apply the law, most if not all politicians should be in jail and bankrupt.

Looks like season 7 of "We Finally Got Trump. Started. Just in time for the midterms.

This is a civil lawsuit not a criminal lawsuit...So good luck....

Is there even a single person on the left still sane?

The Democrat Party, and Pres. Biden are reaching for straws at this point. SMFH

Sue the Texas government, for valuation my personal property without ever stepping foot on my property. It's been going on for decades now. I'm paying taxes based on bogus numbers. Point being, there's a huge leeway on valuation.

Funny how the law works, you don’t need to prove your innocence the state must prove your guilt.

So record crime in NY and she is suing Trump in FL on bogus charges for political gain. Pathetic.

The hate is unreal. Cheating all of us is when inflation is a 8 percent and the President laughs.

Why have they waited so long? 2022 elections must be making them terrified 🤣

Another one? This lady needs to get a hobby.

In other words we have found no evidence to charge him with a crime so we’re suing him in civil court to save face 😂

Omg seriously?? Disgusting. Why is no one addressing on MSM, this unhealthy obsession?? 🇺🇲🇺🇲💪💪

[Theeboss]

So when this case ends in a loss for the AG, will we hear about it?

[stanzzup]

Can we just grow up as a country. It's embarrassing

[psylintzu]

So she had to drop the charges bc she could not prove guilt so now she is trying a civil case thinking she does not have to prove the same thing?

An attorney general who campaigned on a platform of persecuting an individual should not only be removed from office, she should be disbarred.
