Former U.S. President Donald Trump repeatedly invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination during a civil investigation last summer, a video released by the New York State Attorney General’s office shows

for their continued invocation of meritless legal claims but exercised its discretion in not imposing such sanctions," the letter said. "It does not appear that this point was taken."Former U.S. President Donald Trump, who announced a third run for the presidency in 2024, hosts a New Year's Eve party at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, U.S. December 31, 2022.

James said the improper responses included Trump's objection to being labeled the "inactive president" of the Trump Organization during his White House term, though he had used that description in an October 2021 sworn deposition. Trump's daughter Ivanka was criticized by James for saying she did not know whether she had personally met with bankers, or could confirm the contents of her own emails.

James also rejected arguments by Donald Trump and his sons Donald Jr. and Eric that she lacked standing to sue and "acted contrary to the ancient and customary norms" governing prosecutors, saying Engoron had already rejected their contention that she was pursuing a political "witch hunt."

Of course he did..criminal!

He has nothing to hide!

DavidDermott Such a PO💩

trying to force someone to self-incriminate is not allowed - anyone in this position with decent legal cousel would do the same.

Only a liberal rag would frame a story in such a negative light.

Someone please explain to me, Can the fifth be invoked in Civil cases too ?

Should just haul him away

Some artists work in oils or clay.

He puts the 5 into the 45th Presidency

If only they put this amount of effort into the corrupt politicians who are actually in power

Is anyone honestly surprised 🙄🙄🙄

A crook!

Ok left, thank you for the update 🤡

At least Hillary answered questions…🤷🏽😆

5th Amendment, another stone in their pathway… So they wanna cut it! SavetheConstitution

“You see the mob takes the Fifth,” “If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?” “Fifth Amendment. Fifth Amendment. Fifth Amendment. Horrible.” Corruption Fraud

This you?

Trump is dishonnest. He may be questioned or not, brought to justice or not, he still is dishonnest, lying, delusionist, which gives him the right profile for another run as US president. Did he forge his diploms and invent his CV, too, like his colleagues? This would be a plus.

Looking forward to, 2024 Election.

“You see the mob takes the Fifth, If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?”

Only people with something to hide invoke the 5th.

Do you know who else repeatedly invoked the 5th, and said 'same answer' multiple times? [

Orange Jesus exposed & it ain't pretty... Before the was deposed he told that only 'Mob takes the Fifth!'

Doing what criminals do.

I thought only guilty guys pleads the fif, donny.

If Trump did it; why not she too?!

Liberals: Hillary NEVER invoked the fifth! Me: Neither did Bill. He just lied.

Seriously I'm looking forward to the day that name os taken off that building. Then I might visit US & NY again

when will Biden's family businesses be investigated❓ 👀

It's apparent Wharton has top notch reading comprehension curriculum that sticks...

How dare he invoke his constitutional rights! It’s obviously a sign of guilt! 🙄

Man is a walking crime wave. A life without consequences

Lock his ass up

Criminal

'Trumpy wants a cracker' is all this parrot can say over and over...

Of course he did. GOP full of hypocrites.

Remember that time he sodomized an intern in the Oval Office, lied under oath, and the Republican Party voted against his impeachment? Oh wait, that was Bill Clinton who literally took bags of $$$ from China at a Buddhist temple to interfere in a US election…

US laws give the benefit of the doubt to possible offenders. If Al Capone had access to Fifth Amendment tax returns in his time, would he have ended up in Alcatraz?

Which is his constitutional right.

Cool story bro. Oh look, the game is on.

Good

Coward!

Now, shouldn't those who support him ask what he is hiding?

It’s his constitutional right and it would be stupid for him not to.

Boring..........

It’s better than “I have no recollection of that.” -the Dems go-to response when questioned.

Good for him!

😅🤣😂

The good thing when Trump 🤡 uses Fifth Amendment that is he doesn't lie at that time.

Trump is a politician who worked for the national interest of the United States. Do not ignore these and treat them as petty criminals. It is not Joe Biden, who received $1.4 billion in Chinese Communist Party funds through the Bank of China.

get a skinhead lar you look a mess

Trump was begging for justice but pleaded the 5th.

As is the right of each and every American

1.2.3.4.FIF!

Cuz he’s a liar

And nothing happens

Over 400 times he plead the 5th. Don't his zombie MAGA followers get he lies to them and does the opposite of what he says? For years he said 'Pleading the 5th means you're guilty' and 'Only the mob plead the 5th'. Seems he may be both. You MAGA got suckered!!! Again and again!

Innocent people don’t invoke the 5th, I believe he said some form of that years ago.

Only guilty people plead the fifth!

Um... this is normal. Also, James has an extreme hard on for Trump and is abusing her position.

Excerpts of Donald Trump's deposition in New York attorney general's fraud investigationVideo obtained by CBS News provides the first look at former President Donald Trump's deposition last summer in the New York attorney general's civil fraud investigation. Trump sat for questioning under oath on Aug. 10. After preliminary procedural questions from state Attorney General Letitia James, Trump makes an opening statement calling the probe 'very unfair.' In these excerpts, he then repeatedly takes the Fifth Amendment, refusing to answer any questions at all, including about his and his company's finances. I thought only guilty people pled the fifth? Someone said “why plead the fifth if you’ve got to hide, right?” Can’t place who….. hmmmm Dementia Donald being a gigantic hypocrite? Must be a day that ends with the letter “y”.
