NEW YORK (AP) — The Manhattan district attorney says a criminal investigation into former President Donald Trump and his business practices is continuing, despite a recent shakeup in the probe’s leadership. Alvin Bragg’s statement was part of a double dose of bad legal news for Trump Thursday. New York Attorney General Letitia James also asked a court to hold Trump in contempt and fine him $10,000 per day for failing to comply with a subpoena for documents in her ongoing civil investigation. Trump slammed James as an “operative for the Democrat Party” and called her effort to sanction him “a continuation of the greatest Witch Hunt of all time.”
