New Jersey’s top law enforcement agency is looking into claims of widespread harassment and immigration fraud at President Trump’s Garden State golf club after several former and
current housekeepers alleged racially-charged mistreatment, the Daily News has learned.
Anibal Romero, a Newark-based attorney, said Friday the state attorney general’s office recently reached out to him about claims that five of his clients were routinely threatened and
called racial slurs while working at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster.
The women — all of whom are or were undocumented immigrants — also accused their supervisor at the extravagant estate set them up with fraudulent work permits and threatened
to report them to federal authorities if they spoke out.
“These are elements of federal crimes and it’s important that the state attorney general’s office or federal authorities investigate this case,” Romero told The News. “It is unacceptable
that employees of the Trump National Golf Club have to endure this type of abuse.”
Romero said he has also established contact with federal authorities at “the highest level” but declined to specify what agencies he’s been in touch with. Citing policy, a spokeswoman
for the New Jersey AG’s office declined to confirm or deny whether an investigation has been opened into the Trump club.
The state AG development comes as the President faces a myriad of legal headaches, including federal and state investigations into his campaign, his inaugural committee and his
namesake foundation.
What the fuck, just about everything Trump owns is being probed
this is just glorious
imagine if they did a raid during one of the president's visits, how bad that would look.
Spoiler:
The wall is actually being made to keep them in, not out.
"You can't escape me now, Consuela! I own you!"
"My name's Grace-"
"Shut up and clean my toilets, Consuela!"
Romero'sngonna make trump his bitch
Sometimes I like to think about how people would be going batshit crazy over something like this if it were any other president, but because this is pretty minor compared to the laundry list of other scandals, this is just a small blip on the radar.
remember when fox went crazy when obama bought a hot dog
Even worse, fox once went crazy when Obama put Dijon Mustard on a fucking burger. "President Poupon" as Sean fucking Hannity of all people called him. Fox needs to be eradicated from this earth.
Remember when Trump ordered steak well-done?
Which, to be fair, is an actual crime and grounds for impeachment
Or that one time where Obama DARED to wear a tan suit!
Friend of mine posted some shit saying that eating steak with ketchup should affect your credit score. Thing is, he's a die-hard Trump supporter.
I don't think he understands the connection, it took me everything I had to refrain from saying something like "No wonder Trump had to get loans from the Russians..."
Goddamnit I can't unquote this
I know this is a joke but like even then nobody really cared that much other than making fun of him on the internet for it.
Remember when Fox didn't bat an eye when Trump had a "spiritual advisor" act blasphemous by saying that Jesus would be a sinner instead of the savior if it was concluded he illegally immigrated to Egypt as a baby?
