NEW YORK/REGULATIONS/TRUMP BUSINESS: “A state regulator has subpoenaed an insurance provider for The Trump Organization, opening a new front in the widening investigations focused on President Donald Trump, his business, family, and White House administration. Aon, a London-headquartered financial services company that is one of the world’s largest insurance brokerages, said it was served a subpoena on Monday by the New York Department of Financial Services. Donna Mirandola, Aon’s vice president of global content marketing, confirmed the subpoena. The insurance brokerage intends to cooperate with the request but would not ‘comment on specific client matters,’ she said in an email response. Another person with knowledge of the subpoena confirmed that the request sought records of communications involving Aon, Trump and his company, as well as internal documents for related insurance coverage. The person declined to be named because the subpoena had not been disclosed publicly. A spokeswoman for The Trump Organization did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment. The New York action, combined with moves by the Democratically controlled House, represents the latest in a series of new investigations that could target Trump through the second half of his White House term.”
