The New York attorney general’s office says it is joining the Manhattan district attorney’s office in its criminal investigation into former President Trump and his company, the Trump Organization.
Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. has been conducting a criminal investigation for two years.
New York Attorney General Letitia James’ investigation until Tuesday, when her office announced the move, had been a civil investigation.
Vance and James are Democrats.
“We have informed the Trump Organization that our investigation into the company is no longer purely civil in nature,” said the attorney general’s office, according to the Associated Press .
James’ office offered no explanation for what prompted the change, reported first by CNN.
A Vance spokesperson has also declined comment. A message seeking comment was left with a lawyer for Trump and spokespeople for the former president and his company, the Associated Press also reports.

Trump has decried the investigations as part of a Democratic “witch hunt.”
James’ civil investigation and Vance’s criminal probe had overlapped in some areas, including examining whether Trump or his businesses manipulated the value of assets to gain favorable loan terms and tax benefits.Vance’s investigation also included a look at hush-money payments paid to women on Trump’s behalf and tax write-offs the Trump Organization claimed on millions of dollars in consulting fees, the wire service also reports.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
