Justice Department Takes Revenge on One of Trump’s Top Enemies
The Ministry of Justice has opened an investigation into the New York State Attorney General, Letitia James, in an apparent act of Trumpian remuneration.
Two assignments to appear from the Grand Jury were issued to the James office, requesting information relating to previous surveys of the Attorney General on the Trump organization and the National Rifle Association, reported Cnn.
The assignments are linked to the Trump banking fraud case, which James won against Trump in 2024, forcing him to collect $ 454 million for the defective business practices of his family.
Sources that spoke with the network also revealed that an investigation by the Grand Jury had been opened in Albany, examining if James had violated Trump’s constitutional rights to bring legal action against him.
James’ office vehemently rejected the accusations, highlighting his efforts to keep Trump responsible.
“All armaments of the judicial system should disturb each American,” said a spokesperson for the prosecutor general of New York State The New Republic. “We are strongly supported by our successful dispute against the Trump organization and the National Rifle Association, and we will continue to defend the rights of New Yorkers.”
James’ lawyer Abbe Lowell went further, telling CNN that the Trump administration’s investigation into the closed case of James “must be the most blatant and desperate example of the conduct of this administration.”
“Armed up the Ministry of Justice to try to punish an elected official for having done her job is an attack on the rule of law and a dangerous escalation of this administration,” added Lowell. “If the prosecutors carry out this inappropriate tactic and are really interested in the truth, we are ready and await the facts and the law.”
The best cop in New York has become one of the president’s main legal adversaries since the civil fraud case. In April, the Trump administration launched a investigation In his personal finances, accusing the Attorney General of going to bed on his bank statements in order to obtain better mortgage rates. At the time, Trump described James as a “completely corrupt politician” and a “wacky crook” and accused the first black woman in New York according to the state of being “racist”.
