Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday filed a $100 million lawsuit against his niece Mary Trump, The New York Times and three of its reporters, arguing that the defendants were unjustly enriched after Mary Trump allegedly violated confidentiality provisions of the settlement agreement associated with her grandfather’s will.
