New York Attorney General Letitia James accused Donald Trump of trying to cover up lies by seeking a mistrial in the fraud case against him.

“Once again, Donald Trump is trying to dismiss the truth and the facts, but the numbers and evidence don’t lie,” she said in a statement, after Trump’s lawyers filed the mistrial motion on Wednesday. “Trump is now being held accountable for the years of fraud he committed and the incredible ways he lied to enrich himself and his family. He can keep trying to distract from his fraud, but the truth always comes out.”

Her lawyers are expected to announce on Thursday whether they will file a rebuttal to Trump’s mistrial motion.
