While Trump’s administration has been disastrous for the United States and its allies, it’s proving to be a windfall for Trump’s businesses. Money has come flooding into his establishments around the globe as corporations and foreign governments try to curry favor with the president. The Trump Organization has also admitted it won’t fulfill previous promises to track profits made off foreign governments.

Politico reports that a group of Democrats in the House and Senate are moving to file a lawsuit against Trump, alleging that he is in violation of the emoluments clause of the Constitution.

“We’ll be suing to stop his violations of the emoluments clause,” senior House Judiciary member Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) confirmed in an interview. The lawsuit won’t be filed until next week at the earliest but dozens of Democrats on both sides of the Capitol have already signed on in support, Nadler said.

The legal case is just the latest volley in an ongoing war between the White House and lawmakers — mostly Democrats — over potential conflicts of interests related to the Trump corporation’s overseas business deals and foreign governments looking to curry favor with the administration.
