brought by latitia james implicating donald trump and his three eldest children. yes, the result of an investigation into his business practices. but to understand what originally sparked had huge moment wednesday, we have to go back a bit further. the flutter of the bitter fly s wing happened in 2006 when donald trump reportedly made the decision to have an extra marital affair with a porn star named stormy daniels. a decade later, that one decision prompted a directive from trump to his attorney who often served as his fixer, michael cohen. cohen was reimbursed for illegal hush money payments to keep the entire favor affair quiet. and michael ultimately served time but not before fully
