For years, our nation has been subjected to the constant, whirring accusations that the liberal left hurled at Donald Trump. They, even during his presidency, dissed and disarmed the man, attempting to pseudo-neuter the Commander in Chief right before our very eyes.
And now that Trump is out of office, away from the highly-hyped OLC decision on charging a sitting president with a crime, it appears as though some out there are chomping at the bit to see what they can make stick to Teflon Don.
In New York, the next step has just been taken in a case that could have some serious consequences for the former President.
New York prosecutors have convened a special grand jury to consider evidence in a criminal investigation into former President Donald Trump’s business dealings, a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press on Tuesday.
The development signals that the Manhattan district attorney’s office was moving toward seeking charges as a result of its two-year investigation, which included a lengthy legal battle to obtain Trump’s tax records.
The person familiar with the matter was not authorized to speak publicly and did so on condition of anonymity. The news was first reported by The Washington Post.
Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. is conducting a wide-ranging investigation into a variety of matters such as hush-money payments paid to women on Trump’s behalf, property valuations and employee compensation.
The news comes within hours of CNN conveniently obtaining an erroneously-redacted version of a court filing in the SDNY’s case against Rudy Giuliani that appears to widen the scope of that investigation mightily.
