New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman has opened an investigation into the Donald J. Trump Foundation “to make sure it’s complying with the laws governing charities in New York," he said Tuesday.

A source familiar with the matter confirmed Schneiderman’s remark and said the New York Attorney General’s office “has opened an inquiry into the Trump Foundation based on troubling transactions that have recently come to light.”

Schneiderman -- who for months has tangled with Trump over a fraud lawsuit his office filed against Trump University, the Manhattan billionaire’s real estate seminar program -- told CNN’s “The Lead” that the GOP nominee’s charitable foundation is also under scrutiny.

4. Looks like Eric will be handed that job. When he's not killing endangered animals for no reason.

Ya know, if this unravels its no telling who else will go down with the Don.

3. Uh Oh..Schneiderman's building a Wall around Trump!!

Brick by Brick...

Go get him!

5. Bout. Fucking. Time.

Let's hope that this lying, racist, misogynistic, narcissistic, attention-addicted assclown is arrested, tried, convicted, sentenced, and put away like any common sociopath.

The only difference between sociopathic street criminals and sociopathic business criminals is that the former are severely punished while the latter are generously rewarded. Let's as a society treat Donald Trump like the unreformed fraud that we all already know he is.

6. But

Will this hurt him with voters ? Nothing seems to stick I hope it does

[BumRushDaShow]

7. Maybe the RW-leaning indies

But if this gives them 2nd thoughts, they can sit it out for all I care rather than vote for Drumpf.

8. Excellent news! . . . nt

[NastyRiffraff]

9. Good!

I can't understand why this POS isn't in jail.

[blueseas]

10. Good news!!

Keep going....

11. My only fear about this

is the time it takes to do something like this. Typically it can take many months and even years to complete an investigation, especially if it is a criminal matter. If tRump does his usual tactics he will employ every method in the world to delay or deflect this.

So while it is much deserved and over due, I am afraid it won't come in time to hurt him for this election.

13. Court of Public Opinion

They need to prosecute the case in the court of public opinion

12. Trump Is Above The Law - So Is His Banker Friends

Don't get your hopes up.

Jail is for poor / black people. Not folks in Trump's "league".

White collar crime isn't really crime, it is just inconveniencing others.....

14. Lock'im up.

That's what our Rethug friends would say, if Trump were the Democratic nominee - and even if he had committed a tenth as much fraud (or no fraud at all).

15. Zimmerman could have done that painting for a lot less

I can't imagine him doing any worse.
