With special counsel Mueller's probe now complete, others' investigations, including the New York attorney general's, are continuing.

Past attorneys general have used the Martin Act, considered to be the U.S.'s toughest such state statute in this realm, to expand their powers in the financial crimes sector. The law empowers the attorney general to subpoena witnesses and documents for information pertaining to possible fraud.

Vacco said the Martin Act is one of few in the nation that provides the attorney general with criminal investigative authority without having to first receive a referral from the governor or a state agency and he noted that a criminal prosecution often will start off as a civil investigation, which is what the Trump Organization is currently facing.

Knowing Trump, he will be proven guilty. Given his mob connection, what can NY do?

Just like Mueller's Investigation into a crime that didn't happen and no evidence to prove it did.

Zzzzzzz

So what

Dems are all about investigating! That's all they got! No ideas on how to run a country without lies and deceit!

The courts in New York will crucify Trump.

How about saving your own state of NY from bankruptcy and corruption

Nothing more than the continuation of a two year tantrum.

No it’s not, better check, employees pulled from that fake case and reassigned😒fake news, you are

Yep bc she is not biased one bit! 🤣

Then show the American public the Muller Report!

Political extremism has the left using 'Law' as a sword with MALICE the law reverses to a SWORD for POTUS

Shameful. Hopefully all those seeking to execute a coup on the United States of America will be themselves arrested and locked up. I've had enough, the people I talk to have had enough. We will vote against every Democrat. We will spread the truth of Democrat lies and hate.

And new ones are just starting

This will set what happens to every president in our country's future. The future for our future leaders is not bright.

Hopefully NYSD can put the final nails in the coffin real soon.... hahahahaha

America paid for the report we want to read it. What about obstruction. Don Jr. should be prosecuted for lying. America deserves the truth.

And a happy April Fools’ Day to you too.

Grasping for anything at this point. Embarrassed for Democrats. It's time to put Americans first, not conspiracy theories.

Lol. You people never give up, do ya? No matter how many times you make complete fools of yourselves you just keep it up. Why do you so strongly wish that the president of the United States would be a criminal? You are insane!

'now complete'? We know that it ended, but we don't know if it's complete. Why did it end at this point in time? We need to hear from Mueller.

LOL!

These investigations will provide a better picture as to how those working on behalf of foriegn intrests have operated for decades. I enthusiastically support shedding alittle light on these types of activities

Just keep dragging the hatred, slander and division Great job dems

New York is corrupt weaponizing law enforcement for political reasons

The same result will occur.

Go get'm!

To what end., No Collusion, he is President and the more the Radical Left attack him, the more his base loves him. QAnon / Breaking / WWG1WGA

You mean biased, racist

Nothing burgers for everyone!!!
