The Manhattan District Attorney’s office announced last night that it will investigate now former New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman after the bombshell report by Ronan Farrow and the physical abuse of four women:
NEW: Manhattan D.A. Cyrus Vance has opened an investigation into "the recently reported allegations concerning Mr. Schneiderman,” a spox confirms to @NBCNews

And now, like @Schneiderman, we will focus on taking Trump down.
