The New York Attorney General's office announced this week that it will be joining the Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr's years-long criminal investigation of the Trump Organization. Attorney General Letitia James said: "We have informed the Trump Organization that our investigation into the organization is no longer purely civil in nature. We are now actively investigating the Trump Organization in a criminal capacity, along with the Manhattan DA." Donald Trump issued a scathing statement via the Desk of Donald Trump slamming the witch hunt.
