    ........in New York attorney general probe of President Trump’s company
    Eric Trump must comply with a subpoena for his testimony in a New York investigation into his family business before the presidential election, a judge on Wednesday ordered.

    The president’s middle son must testify as part of the prboe no later than Oct. 7, the judge ordered.

    Lawyers for Eric Trump had previously said that he was willing to be deposed as part of the New York attorney general’s probe of the Trump Organization, but only after the Nov. 3 contest between his father, President Donald Trump, and Democratic nominee Joe Biden.

    Crooked Donald isn't going to happy about this. If I were advising him I'd tell him not to sweat it. What could possibly be revealed that Trumpleton's would care about after all they've forgiven him for? Tax fraud........just add it to the list of crimes they've ignored.

    So let me get this straight....he agreed to testify but wanted to do it after he finished campaigning for his father....the judge said no, you gonna have to do it sooner.....and this is some sort of massive win for you? Do you think he's gonna change his testimony?

    Who indicated it was a massive win? The fact is Eric has been stonewalling for months, refusing to comply with the AG's requests for documents and testimony.............as is the Trump way.

    One might conclude this was an effort to prevent the testimony from being given before the election because of potentially damaging info coming out. That is, if any negative info actually mattered to Trumpleton's..........which it clearly does not.

    what are you talking about? Stonewalling? your post says that he agreed to testify....he agreed...that's hardly stonewalling.

    Testimony before a grand jury shouldn't be leaked....ever so no...doubtful.

    He is trying to campaign for his father....and is all over the country....that seems like the logical thing to me...since your theory would be illegal....you don't think Vance is planning to do that is he?? wow...sounds like this might be a conspiracy by Vance

    "James last month had filed an action with the court seeking Eric Trump’s compliance with the subpoena after she said that he had reneged on an agreement to testify this summer.

    James also sought to force compliance with subpoenas seeking documentation and testimony related to several Trump properties. Her office noted Wednesday that the judge’s order will give her access to documents that have been “withheld by the Trump Organization.”

    Why do you consider forcing the production of testimony and documents by way of a subpoena as some sort of badge of honor? Why not just cooperate with a legally warranted investigation?

    There was no subpona to testify....he voluteered

    but certainly wouldn't blame if he required one. As far as documents etc....because the Govt should have to prove what they want, and why they want it.

    I am not just gonna let a cop come to my house and look around.....i have a right to privacy, and so does a business...if they had a warrant that would be diffferent too...but they have no warrant.

    why do you think a Govt has a right to go root around in businesses or make people take off and come to them without an order?

    Incorrect. The judge ruled Eric had to comply with the subpoena and could not decide when he would comply.

    Trump is not sweating Eric's testimony before the election at all. What grand jury testimony do you think might be revealed?

    That is my point, as I said in the OP. Given what has already transpired (stealing from a charity, cheating on his wife with a porn star, paying illegal hush money right before the election, defrauding students of his school, botching the COVID response, epic corruption and incompetence, extorting a foreign leader for campaign help) nothing will dissuade Trumpleton's from supporting him. Surely not illegal activity at the Trump Org.

    won't sway republican voters, we had the emails to the Trump tower meeting released, they did not care

    Trump could lie to the American people about the dangers of a virus and play it down and not lose any votes

    What was there to care about? A British guy their company had done some business with wanted to set up a meeting? Big wooo

    why did the Govt of Moscow wire the Biden family $3.5 million? If a Brit wanting a meeting set off so much of an investigation...why can't we open a full scale one on that large sum of money being wired?

    like the Trump family should be investigated for the trademark deals China gave them - don't forget, Ivanka worked for the White House even

    Ivanka meets with China on white house business, they give her Trademarks as a gift?

    "Ivanka Trump Wins China Trademarks, Then Her Father Vows to Save ZTE"

    https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/28/business/ivanka-trump-china-trademarks.html

    "six days before the ZTE announcement, China said it approved five of Ms. Trump's trademarks, according to data from China's trademark office."
