A New York judge said Thursday that Donald Trump and two of his children have to testify in a business fraud investigation.

Judge says Trump, family aren't 'protected,' nor denied rights

In his written ruling, Engoron rejected the Trumps' claim that James improperly sought the Trumps' depositions to gain an improper advantage in the parallel criminal investigation led by the Manhattan district attorney and James' prosecutors. That argument"completely misses the mark," the judge wrote in his decision.

In a terse statement following the judge's ruling, a Trump Organization spokesperson said: “The entire system is corrupt.” The judge's ruling also cast aside the Trumps' claim that James was pursuing them as part of a political"vendetta." Engoron said he had privately reviewed thousands of documents filed as part of the attorney general's inquiry and determined that there was a"sufficient basis" for continuing the investigation.
