The U.S. Justice Department has launched a criminal investigation into New York Attorney General Letitia James over allegations of mortgage fraud. This bombshell probe comes after years of James leading high-profile cases against former President Donald Trump, sparking accusations of political hypocrisy.
FBI agents are digging into claims that James falsified property records and bank documents to score sweetheart loan deals. Allegations include listing a Virginia home as her “primary residence” while living in New York and illegally securing loans for Brooklyn real estate. These are the same types of fraud charges James weaponized against Trump.
Republican Congresswoman Elise Stefanik praised the investigation, declaring “nobody is above the law.” Stefanik slammed James for allegedly committing the “same crime” she used to attack Trump. Conservatives see this as long-awaited justice after James spent years abusing her office to target political enemies.
The irony couldn’t be sharper. James famously vowed to “get Trump” before becoming attorney general, then hit him with a $500 million civil fraud judgment. Now she faces potential criminal charges for similar actions. This double standard exposes the rotten core of New York’s Democrat machine.
Behind the scenes, Democrats are scrambling to protect James with taxpayer cash. Governor Kathy Hochul secretly slipped a budget provision forcing New Yorkers to foot James’ legal bills. Working families pay while corrupt elites play—classic Albany corruption.
The FBI’s involvement shows this isn’t political gamesmanship. Agents are reviewing decades of property records, including a case linked to a tragic suicide during a prior fraud probe. Real consequences loom for James if the feds uncover solid evidence.
Conservatives nationwide are cheering this reckoning. For too long, radical prosecutors like James have twisted the law to crush their opponents. This investigation proves the Trump administration remains committed to draining the swamp—even targeting powerful Democrats.
Letitia James now stares down the same legal firepower she unleashed on innocent Americans. The message is clear: election-stealing, Trump-hating bureaucrats won’t escape accountability. The Biden era’s lawless persecution of conservatives is finally being answered with justice.
