Incoming New York attorney general plans wide-ranging investigations of Trump and family

[Demovictory9]

New York Attorney Gen.-elect Letitia James says she plans to launch sweeping investigations into President Donald Trump, his family and "anyone" in his circle who may have violated the law once she settles into her new job next month.

"We will use every area of the law to investigate President Trump and his business transactions and that of his family as well," James, a Democrat, told NBC News in her first extensive interview since she was elected last month.

James outlined some of the probes she intends to pursue with regard to the president, his businesses and his family members. They include:

Any potential illegalities involving Trump's real estate holdings in New York, highlighting a New York Times investigation published in October into the president's finances.

The June 2016 Trump Tower meeting with a Russian official.

Examine government subsidies Trump received, which were also the subject of Times investigative work.

Whether he is in violation of the emoluments clause in the U.S. Constitution through his New York businesses.

Continue to probe the Trump Foundation.

"We want to investigate anyone in his orbit who has, in fact, violated the law," said James, who was endorsed by New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

Had I been in her position, I would have just started the investigations. Any announcements would be on paper. No interviews.

5. January is going to be very interesting.

Better stock up on popcorn. I'm still of a mind that Dump is going to reveal a very, very serious illness that he is fighting heroically and that the stress of the "witch hunt" is making it worse, so for the good of his family and him he's going to resign.
