Donald Trump refuses to answer questions by AG James, claims he ‘did nothing wrong’

Donald Trump refuses to answer questions by AG James, claims he ‘did nothing wrong.’ This isn’t a prosecution, it’s persecution, just like yesterday’s panty sniffing raid by the FBI at his house in Florida.

“I declined to answer the questions under the rights and privileges afforded to every citizen under the United States Constitution,” Trump said in a statement, referring to the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.

“I once asked, ‘If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?’” Trump said. “Now I know the answer to that question. When your family, your company, and all the people in your orbit have become the targets of an unfounded, politically motivated Witch Hunt supported by lawyers, prosecutors, and the Fake News Media, you have no choice.”

Supreme Court Places Limitations on Excessive Fines for Those Convicted, Accused of Crimes

Supreme Court Places Limitations on Excessive Fines for Those Convicted, Accused of Crimes. They used the 14th Amendment. We wonder how this will affect the red flag seizure laws that can take guns away from citizen without due process?

“As it did in earlier cases applying parts of the Bill of Rights to the states, the court based its decision on the part of the 14th Amendment that says “no state shall deprive any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law.” 

Thomas said he would have relied on the Constitution’s language forbidding states from making or enforcing “any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States.” (5th Amendment)

Justice Neil Gorsuch also expressed his preference for the privileges or immunities clause.
