Former President Donald Trump delivered an aggressive Easter Sunday message to New York Attorney General Letitia James, who is engaged in a civil investigation into possible fraud committed by the Trump Organization.
In his missive, sent via an email blast from Trump’s Save America PAC, Trump seized on James suspending her campaign for governor to seek reelection as attorney general instead.
“Happy Easter to failed gubernatorial candidate and racist Attorney General Letitia James,” Trump said. “May she remain healthy despite the fact that she will continue to drive business out of New York while at the same time keeping crime, death, and destruction in New York!”
James, a Democrat, filed a motion to hold Trump in civil contempt of court earlier this month, claiming he failed to turn over key documents for her inquiry.

“Despite a crystal clear order from the court, Donald Trump has refused to turn over documents as part of our investigation into him and the Trump Organization’s financial dealings,” she tweeted. “No one is above the law.”
James’s office began an investigation into the Trump Organization in 2019 after former Trump personal lawyer Michael Cohen testified before Congress that the company manipulated its asset valuations for tax and business benefits, and her team has been cooperating with a criminal investigation being run by the Manhattan district attorney.
Trump has denied any wrongdoing and criticized the investigations as politically motivated. He said James’s investigation is “just a continuation of the political Witch Hunt that has gone on against me by the Radical Left Democrats for years” in a statement last year.

In another Easter message, Trump chastised Democrats more generally.
“Happy Easter to all including the Radical Left Maniacs who are doing everything possible to destroy our Country. May they not succeed, but let them, nevertheless, be happy, healthy, wealthy, and well!” he said.
