Former President Trump Invokes Fifth Amendment Rights

President Trump invoked his Fifth Amendment rights yesterday during his disposition with New York’s Attorney General Letitia James. Trump called the investigation an ‘unfoundly politically motivated witch hunt’ and added that he had ‘no choice’ due to the Biden administration and prosecutors across the nation having ‘lost all moral and ethical bounds of decency.’ Days before the deposition, FBI agents raided Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Resort as part of an unrelated federal investigation involving classified information that the National Archives and Records Administration believed to have been at the estate. The former President is the last member of the Trump family to be deposed as part of the investigation as Ivanka and Donald Trump Jr. were deposed earlier this month.
