NY Attorney General moves against Trump Foundation

As we have noted, Special Counsel Mueller is only part of the Trump investigation story. Keep your eyes on the NY Attorney General and the US Attorney for the NY area. 

The Hill -The New York State attorney general's office is suing the Trump Foundation for "persistent illegality," according to a court filing.

The original lawsuit, filed in June, alleged that the foundation had broken New York's charities laws to support Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.

"Donald J. Trump used his control over the Donald J. Trump Foundation for his benefit to advance his personal, business, and political interests in violation of federal and state law governing charities," it said.

The suit seeks to dissolve the foundation and temporarily bar Trump and his children from serving in other charities in the state.
