Eric Trump must testify in New York AG probe before election, judge rules
Fox News ^ | 9/23/2020 | Morgan Phillips

A judge ruled Wednesday that Eric Trump must testify in response to a subpoena from the New York attorney general’s office as part of an investigation into whether the Trump organization improperly valued real estate assets in statements.

Eric Trump, the president’s middle son and a top executive at the organization, has until Oct. 7 — less than a month before the general election — to testify, Judge Arthur Engoron ruled after a hearing in Manhattan Supreme Court. Trump’s lawyers had requested to delay his deposition until after the election so he could campaign for his father.

New York Attorney General Letitia James requested the judge enforce her subpoena after Eric Trump abruptly canceled an interview with James’ office and a week after The Trump Organization said that neither the company nor its lawyers would comply with seven subpoenas tied to the investigation.

The Trump Organization, an umbrella group for the president’s financial holdings, hit back at James’ request, questioning the timing and argued that the probe is politically motivated.

Did the good judge have any opinion on the Biden news today?

His work for his father’s campaign is in the national interest. He should not have to do squat.

It’s an opinion of value for goodness sakes.

My opinion is different than someone else’s opinion. So what?

His testimony will be leaked, guaranteed. Ironic, prosecutor says no one is above the law except if your FBI, CIA, Hillary Clinton.

This is nothing but a vigilante prosecution and right before an election.

But Duraham and Barr are tip toeing around in their tutus, deathly afraid that someone will be a meany and accuse them of tampering with the election if they end their damn investigation and arrest people.

Yep.

Why it’s so chicken sh*t.

The NY AG is nothing more than a partisan piece of —— odiferous excrement.

Sad for NY. They actually had a turnaround in that state when Rudy was at the helm of NYC. But not now. It’s all returning to hell.

Of course it is, and she has been after any and all of the Trump family with fishing expeditions since she assumed office in Jan. of 2019. The Judge is indeed a Democrat, but he wasn’t appointed he was elected.
