It’s not clear what specifically triggered the president’s tweets.

James has been aggressive in investigating Trump and his administration. She filed or joined a barrage of lawsuits on issues from the administration’s decision to add a citizenship question to the census to the Trump Organization’s business practices.

The lawsuit against the Trump Foundation was started by James’s predecessor, Eric Schneiderman, who resigned in May 2018 after he was accused of abusing multiple women. Schneiderman disputed the allegation that he assaulted women during what he said were consensual sexual encounters.
