Letitia James has acknowledged that she is in legal hot water by hiring big-gun criminal defense attorney Abbe David Lowell. (If that name sounds familiar, it's because Lowell was one of Hunter Biden's lawyers during his special counsel probe — which resulted in gun and tax charges for the then-first son.)
To be precise, James herself didn't hire Lowell; her office did. "The attorney general’s office said that Lowell was hired by the attorney general’s office and not retained personally by James," reports the Times Union. Yes, that means taxpayers are footing her legal bills. Neat trick.
Lowell sent a six-page letter to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi on Thursday. His missive was a rebuttal to the criminal referral previously sent to Bondi by Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte.
Lowell's letter was a posturing attempt to wave away the numerous, er, inconsistencies in James's real estate dealings over the past 40-plus years. Oddly, all of these innocent mistakes occurred in the direction of more favorable terms for Tish and her family member-partners. Quelle coïncidence!
The first of these happy accidents in James's favor was her claim on a 2023 specific power of attorney that she intended to make a Virginia home her primary residence — while she was firing up her lawfair trial against Trump in her role as N.Y. Attorney General.
Lowell explained that kindly old Aunt Tish was simply helping her niece purchase the home as the younger woman's residence and had made that clear in earlier emails to the mortgage broker:

P
Unethical, as is Tush James.
“...Letitia James has acknowledged that she is in legal hot water...”
Crime porn.
The Ghettopotamus wants to lynch the Caucasian PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES for his “mistakes” and “errors”. String her fat keister up!
She should be forced to resign as a resident of Virginia or deny being a resident of Virginia and she admits she lied on her mortgage, which is fraud. Then she still needs to resign and go to prison.
Still a crime. She’s not denying it.
Indeed.
She cannot claim ignorance, mistake or ignorance of the law. She prosecuted Trump for this.
I'm sorry your Honor, my crimes were mistakes and errors - yea, doesn't cut it.
Wish me luck.
Ok Fine, if it was all “Mistakes” shen needs to be DISBARRED IMMEDIATELY for being STUPID.
As usual, democrats rarely pay for anything with their own money. The citizens of NY state should be up in arms about the use of state funds for the defense of her personal crimes.
The Hillary Defense.
“Well ok then!”
but she can’t read or write and someone else did it ,LOL
The old, spineless GOP goober response to egregious, politically-motivated, leftist lawfare, like James’, would have been to sacrifice the attacked member of the herd to the lions, or to simply run-away, and be content they temporarily avoided political death.
The new, vastly-improved Trump philosophy is to give the attackers double the amount of lawfare, based on the facts of their actual corruption.
Try using the “mistakes and errors” excuse with the IRS after filing a bogus tax return. I’m sure they’ll be quite sympathetic.
How stupid is this idiot?
She’s prosecuting people for minor crimes and making up new crimes.
She knows dirty Dems have her back
” ‘Mistakes’ and ‘Errors’
I’m sorry your Honor, my crimes were mistakes and errors - yea, doesn’t cut it.”
An average person might make one mistake but she had multiple
entries in question on her mortgage paperwork. Worse, because as a lawyer, she should know enough to double check what she’s signing. If she is that sloppy of an attorney, it’s time to give back her license to practice law!!
Methinks GUILTY as charged for fraud!
