Trump hits New York Gov. Cuomo over state’s probe into family business

President Trump on Tuesday went after New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) after the state escalated its investigation into the president’s family business.

“New York State and its Governor, Andrew Cuomo, are now proud members of the group of PRESIDENTIAL HARASSERS. No wonder people are fleeing the State in record numbers. The Witch Hunt continues!” Trump tweeted.

Trump’s rebuke comes one day after New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) issued subpoenas to two banks for documents related to Trump hotel projects in Washington, Chicago and Miami as well as Trump’s attempted purchase of the Buffalo Bills football team, according to The New York Times.

While the probe is believed to be civil and not criminal, the new requests add to Trump’s legal headaches from federal, state and congressional probes into his administration, campaign and businesses.

The New York attorney general issued the subpoenas after former Trump personal attorney Michael Cohen testified to Congress that Trump inflated his assets in order to obtain loans from Deutsche Bank.
