New York City Prosecutor Opens Criminal Probe into Trump Organization
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, The New York Times reports the Manhattan District Attorney's
Office may bring criminal charges against the Trump Organization and two
senior company officials over hush money payments. Any convictions on
New York state charges would not be subject to a presidential pardon.
This all comes as New York's attorney general has opened a new criminal
inquiry into whether Michael Cohen violated state tax laws.
