Incoming New York AG Plans Political Witch Hunt Against Trump, Family, And Associates

When Democrats talk about “saving our Democracy”, does that include political investigations?

Incoming New York attorney general plans wide-ranging investigations of Trump and family

New York Attorney Gen.-elect Letitia James says she plans to launch sweeping investigations into President Donald Trump, his family and “anyone” in his circle who may have violated the law once she settles into her new job next month.

“We will use every area of the law to investigate President Trump and his business transactions and that of his family as well,” James, a Democrat, told NBC News in her first extensive interview since she was elected last month.

James outlined some of the probes she intends to pursue with regard to the president, his businesses and his family members. They include:

  • Any potential illegalities involving Trump’s real estate holdings in New York, highlighting a New York Times investigation published in October into the president’s finances.
  • The June 2016 Trump Tower meeting with a Russian official.
  • Examine government subsidies Trump received, which were also the subject of Times investigative work.
  • Whether he is in violation of the emoluments clause in the U.S. Constitution through his New York businesses.
  • Continue to probe the Trump Foundation.

So, essentially, a political witch hunt. What would happen if the FBI decided to suddenly investigate her? You can bet she’d throw a fit.

Does she want to open this can of worms? Do we want to formally use the power of the government for massive retaliatory investigations against political adversaries? Democrats should remember that this can work both ways. But, they just can’t accept the results at the ballot box, and when the political atmosphere becomes beyond toxic, it’ll be on their heads.

    Not one of these jerks want to be in office to do the business of the people. Our Republic is over. Our laws are one sided because those who enforce those laws will never take action against themselves.

    New York’s version of Wisconsin’s John Doe investigations. It’s what happens when you give the petulant, bullying children on the left power.

    The democrat left both in localities like New York or LA and nationally when they get an iota of power in the federal legislature or through the bureaucracy are now operating like the Khmer Rouge: no mercy, no morals and total contempt for anyone not in their ranks. This country is looking more and more like a witch hunt at every level. The “independent council” was to investigate some “Russia” collusion but now indicts people for lying about paying off hookers in NDA’s by tying it to election fraud. That’s bull.
