New York prosecutors have convened a grand jury to consider whether to indict former President Trump and Trump Organization executives as part of a criminal investigation into the company, according to the Associated Press.
The investigations are looking into potential bank, tax and insurance fraud. Trump denies any wrongdoing.
They include “scrutiny of Trump’s relationship with his lenders; a land donation he made to qualify for an income tax deduction; and tax write-offs his company claimed on millions of dollars in consulting fees it paid,” the AP reported.
Tuesday evening Donald Trump released a statement saying, “This is a continuation of the greatest Witch Hunt in American history. It began the day I came down the escalator in Trump Tower, and it’s never stopped. They wasted two years and $48 million in taxpayer dollars on Mueller and Russia Russia Russia, Impeachment Hoax #1, Impeachment Hoax #2, and it continues to this day, with illegally leaked confidential information.”
“This is purely political, and an affront to the almost 75 million voters who supported me in the Presidential Election, and it’s being driven by highly partisan Democrat prosecutors.”
The new grand jury could be asked to consider returning indictments. The AP reported that while working on that case, it also will be hearing other matters. The Post reported that the grand jury will meet three days a week for six months.

The dems are criminal. Whatever they are accusing others of, they have done themselves. I wish they would get over it.
