Donald Trump will be deposed Thursday as part of a high-stakes civil case brought by New York state against the former president, some of his children and his sprawling business empire.

The lawsuit, brought last September by New York Attorney General Letitia James, alleges that Trump, his children Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump and Ivanka Trump, and the Trump Organization were involved in an expansive scheme lasting over a decade by providing false financial statements to lenders and others that the former president used to enrich himself. The suit from James, a Democrat, is seeking $250 million and bans on the Trumps’ ability to operate a business in the state.

In a civil case, if a defendant asserts the Fifth Amendment, the jury can make what’s known as an “adverse inference” and place weight against Trump for refusing to answer questions. Thursday’s appearance will also mark the first time Trump has been back in New York since he pleaded not guilty last week in Manhattan criminal court to 34 charges of falsifying business records following an investigation into hush money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels.

Right... we alllll believe you....

Another 'public official' whose campaign consisted of 'I'm gonna get Trump' in a country that is starting a freaking nuclear war, something that has escaped their myopic gaze. This is also abuse of power (like the NY County DA prosecution) and should be reviewed by Congress.

If they have a case,80% of Americans are also criminals.Leftist which are so Woke and corrupt can not even wait for court to decide.They are the judge and most are worst criminals.

Why sprawling empire words for convict sexual Manipulated exPres?

One of the family is probably close to a plea bargain, any guesses?

Another BS suit brought on by lib activist State AG. So she thinks big banks need protection. How about getting tough on the true criminals that plague NY and NYC?

HAHAHA

Blah blah blah!

The RABID left will do ANYTHING to stay in power.

You guys have got him this time!

Uh oh.

Biden crime family

Why post the sister on the right and not mention who the f she is? Like she’s Lizzo’s ugly sister or something

But still nothing on russian collusion, illegal docs, bride money, or any of that illegal shit you KNOW he did... just a porn star he paid to stfu (who then wrote a book) just like Clinton did?

You leftists are filthy traitors.

Tea Party. Democrats have failed miserably. Stop engaging Extremist. Stop the spread of Rumors-gossip. Exorcise Self control don't start that 'he said' she said stuff. Stop Taxing those who have made HUGE Contributions to meet American Community needs. Stop ASSAULT on Trump & GOP

You’ll get him this time 😂

I thought it said “disposed” 🤣

Fake news

Sorry your news is being “Trumped” by more important news. 🙃

Banana Republic of America!

You’re whole network is falling apart

'Show me the man, and I'll show you the crime.'

High stakes, huh?

Fifth Amendment is all this commie court deserves. Remember James ran only on ' putting Trump in jail.' Class act.

What is wrong with this black brother-sister team? The chips on their shoulders must be blinding them.

Whatever. More fake investigating.

Political prosecutions by black racist prosecutors

Racist

If he did wrong. The statute of limitations has long expired. Let’s go after bill clinton. He did the same thing. This has been a constant witch hunt. Since he announced he was running for president. The minute he announced nancy piglosie said she was to impeach him

More wasteful taxpayer money 🙄

Do you know deposition is another name for shit in Spanish? And constipation is a flu. Weird Latin evolution.

Meanwhile Epstein Clients are left alone, American Justice at work 😜✌️

.... trying to frame Trump because Democrats know they can't beat him in a fair election. It's like you're admitting you cheated in the last one.

No doubt all of these cases against Trump are coordinated. They hope to find a contradiction somewhere amongst the disparate cases so that they can charge him with perjury since, undoubtedly, their actual 'cases' are so weak.

Still at it huh fakenews ?

“Sprawling” LOL

Y'all still after Trump but not Biden and his son? Seriously 😒

Communist News Network!! scumbags of people work here. They deserve to drink dog water

Stories like this keep CNN and MSNBC in business.

Have your news networks showing you this?

Biden has gone all out Stalin.

Good morning everyone, it’s a dramatic world of today, start your day afresh with this music 👉

Lawfare promoted by CNN. There will be a reckoning.

This is all bull ....the banks made money and there was no complaints.... selective prosecution

walls are closing in 😱

What's the old saying? Oh, what a tangled web we weave when first we start behaving like Donald Trump. Something like that.

Why is this guy steal in politics? The American people is just a sucker for this man. He’s as crooked is they come. Get rid of him and get back to normal. You people are a head scratcher. My god he don’t do shit in four years. Just North Korean guy ass. GREAT. Suckers

There never would have been any invasions under Trump! Trump Made America Great and didn’t make Russia rich like Pedo Joe. Trump will win again. Of coarse the Communists and pedocrats don’t want this. They want a weak woke leader like Pedo Joe!

Lock that Cheeto up

A patriot😂A god? How what where? Who? Ahh, Mr Trump... the man who loves the truth, the tax transfer💰, the storming of the Capitol, and is at home in the crotch of women😡

Letitia James is racist piece of garbage.

Just look at both Letitia James, and Alvin Bragg, black racist lawyers attacking the Former President Trump with trumped up charges.

James is just another Democrat hack.

It's nothing. Funny how biden told reporters he would stop trump ftom running then couple days later sends his 3 best person to manhatten to he'll get trump. Thats election interference at its core.

If he wasn't innocent they would've gotten him years ago. This is all political meddling now.

Weaponized judicial system. More bullshit.

K

It’s funny stormy has to pay trump still and you have this bullshit
