Former Attorney General William Barr slammed a lawsuit against his onetime boss, former President Donald Trump, highlighting its political undertones.
Barr contended that it is hard not to conclude that the suit, announced Wednesday by New York Attorney General Letitia James, is a "political hit job" and jabbed at James for engaging in "gross overreach" by dragging Trump's children into the suit, hypothesizing that the legal tiff will backfire against her.
James unveiled a massive $250 million civil lawsuit against Trump, three of his adult children, and management at the Trump Organization, alleging they engaged in a pattern of fraudulent and deceptive business practices.

Legally adults and can be held responsible for their actions. Like daddy dear they have never had to pay any real penalty for their actions. They recently received several billion dollars as a gift for something all they have to do is pay the 250 mil and walk away.

(42,585 posts)You would think James went after a bunch of toddlers or even adolescents.
Donald Jr. is 44. Ivanka is 40. Eric is 38. All three served for years as Executive Vice Presidents of the Trump Organization (and presumably were paid well for their "service." ) Ivanka left the Organization in 2017 to become a Senior White House Advisor.
Yet Barr would have you believe that these were naive waifs who couldn't have known anything about anything involving the Trump Organization.
