Trump administration subpoenas New York Attorney General Letitia James
Briefly

Letitia James successfully sued Donald Trump for fraud in 2023, prompting a Department of Justice grand jury investigation into her actions. Subpoenas were issued to probe whether Trump’s civil rights were violated. This investigation extends to James's lawsuit against the National Rifle Association. James's office rejected any allegations of wrongdoing, asserting their commitment to litigation against Trump and the NRA. Her lawyer described the investigation as a blatant act of political retribution by the current administration, suggesting that Trump is improperly using the Justice Department for personal vendettas.
Investigating the fraud case Attorney General James won against President Trump and his businesses has to be the most blatant and desperate example of this administration carrying out the president's political retribution campaign.
Any weaponisation of the justice system should disturb every American, the statement said. We stand strongly behind our successful litigation against the Trump Organization and the National Rifle Association.
