Aside from the investigation into the Capitol riots, former President Donald Trump is at the center of another probe by the New York Attorney General. As part of the probe, Attorney General Letitia James has now subpoenaed records from Trump’s hotel in Washington DC.
James has subpoenaed records from the Trump hotel in Washington DC, requesting information from the General Services Administration, who chose the now-former president to lead the Old Post Office project upon development. Previous requests by James focused mostly on the relationship between Trump and the hotel during his term in the White House. The move also comes as the former president is looking to sell the property, making $100 million in profits.
“The documents James sought included a scorecard GSA used to rank Trump’s bid against those of other developers who proposed leasing and redeveloping the federally owned Old Post Office Pavillion downtown,” said the report by the Washington Post.
“That information could fit into James’s broader effort to show a pattern of Trump giving false information to business partners, banks, and insurers to secure loans and other deals.”
The House Oversight Committee raised concerns last year that Trump misled the GSA in order to secure the deal. In a letter to administrator Robin Carnahan, Democratic Rep. Gerry Connolly said that the former president did not disclose the millions of dollars in debt when he made the bid to secure the lease. Connolly also called for an investigation to be launched.
“If he walks away from this laughing all the way to the bank with a $100 million profit, we will have debased the whole concept of enforcing conflict of interests laws and ethics,” said Connolly.
Trump has often attacked James for her probe into his business practices and recently he attacked James again for continuing her probe into his business. Trump and his attorneys accused James of “selective prosecution.”
The attorneys cited an email from James’ campaign to her supporters on January 9, following her issuance of subpoenas to Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump Jr, and the former president. The email warned that should Trump run for president again in 2024, he may succeed and that the Capitol insurrection is also pointing towards him.
Trump’s attorneys accused James of prosecuting the former president based on his political views and speech as part of an effort to hinder his political aspirations.
