NY AG Leticia James Subpoenas Donald, Don Jr. & Ivanka Trump, While Eric Pleads the 5th 500 Times!

Glenn Kirschner

We just learned from New York State Court filings that NY Attorney General is seeking the testimony of former President Donald Trump, as well as Don Jr. and Ivanka in connection with AG James' civil fraud investigation into the Trump Organization. In that same filing, we learned that when Eric Trump testified in the same investigation he invoked his 5th Amendment right against self-incrimination more than 500 times. Of course, it's Eric father who famously said only mobsters plead the 5th. But setting aside the comedic value of the new revelation, here are the legal consequences of pleading the 5th Amendment in a civil investigation.

whining it's fake news, that the media is out to get him and his 5th-Amendment family of grifters, that it's all a big Witch Hunt the dems invent evidence blah blah blah and the republiQons will all support and run for (except Liz Cheney).

That's all they'll have for platform...
