New York AG's Office Opens Criminal Probe Into Trump Organization

[killapicklepiratepanda]

You know if he never became president he more than likely wouldn't be in this mess

[victornewman]

From civil to criminal? Looks like she may have something solid.

[mattkemerait]

I'm no lawyer, but I'm guessing if we are hearing about it, it's been a criminal investigation for some time now and they have something solid enough to bring charges. Have your popcorn at the ready.

[psmith]

The party of Law and Order doesn’t want to hold the ex-president accountable, imagine that.

[CalebColeTrain]

We should investigate all senators and congressmen in the same way.

[billyboatman]

We can only hope that he finally gets his karma and is put behind bars. Praying for it.

ITS ABOUT TIME .... THE CULT IS CRUMBLING

[jefferymartin]

this is no different from the al capone and crew era, prosecute, convict and lock them up!

[Lyniquechunte]

Oh The Teflon coating is scratched up and Don is getting really sticky!! It’s time to throw him away. I hope everything he has done !his family and friends ha e done ! comes to light!! He will reap every one of his sewn seeds filled with evil deeds!

[kathleenaustin]

Civil is fines....criminal is time!!! Great news!!!👍👏💪😀

[ganeshiyer]

The announcement would not have been made so publicly if they didn’t already have something. Hopefully, this results in the arrest of Donald and his three children. Also, I hope the business licensees of these people will be revoked.

[stephenurso]

I'm guessing his finances are so clean you could probably call them laundered!

[gertyterry]

And then there’s the Georgia AG too. He’s done illegal things across the country. Somebody get this crime family off the streets and behind bars! 😡

[lawandacontreras]

Get it done! He has weaseled out of too much crimes!

[rehobothwell]

Even the most artful dodger has his day where there is no escape. This could be the beginning of such a reckoning for the former guy

[brahmburgers]

I had to look at the date of this video release. Telling us Trump is embedded within a criminal organization is like telling us trees have bark.

[pelicannurse]

Mika sounds so pleased. We have all been waiting for this.

[curiouscat]

Pray for Ms. James and her family's safety

[RedondoBeach]

Joe, you're 100% right. I'm also tired of talk, talk, talk, while he golfs and eats "hamberders."

[skycloudtraveler]

We are behind you all the way! Go Team!
