Summary

New York Attorney General Letitia James is back in the news as her team files a brief in Donald Trump's appeal of the massive, nearly half-billion dollar civil fraud judgment entered against him.

AG James tells the New York appeals court that Trump's appeal is "awash in meritless legal arguments" and ignores volumes of trial evidence showing that he and his co-defendants engaged in "fraud and illegality on an immense scale."

Glenn reviews this recent court filing by AG James' team as well as the many other current legal woes of Donald Trump.
