Letitia James calls mortgage fraud case against her vindictive and asks judge to dismiss it
AP ^ | November 7, 2025 | Eric Tucker

New York Attorney General Letitia James asked a federal judge Friday to dismiss a mortgage fraud case against her, calling it a vindictive and politically motivated prosecution brought at the behest of a president who regards her as an enemy.

The motion, which had been expected, lays out a litany of comments from President Donald Trump designed to show the case was driven by personal animus that arose out of James' fraud lawsuit against Trump in her capacity as state attorney general.

She campaigned on getting Trump. Trump did nothing to her. She used her position, with the help and support of the White House to pursue Trump for political reasons.

Now, she believes that she is above the law. She believes that the tactics she used shouldn’t be used against her. Sorry, I am not accepting this. She should get Justice.

Trump never shied away from verbally condemning Tish James.

It’ll be interesting to see how this ruling goes.

Tish James is definitely accusing Trump of what she herself did in spades prior to trial.

She’s right - it is vindictive.
Next case!

We could go with the Atticus Finch solution, pretending that Aunt Jemima is Tim Johnson.

Typical of privileged far left lunatics. Screw up and blame others for revealing your screw ups. ‘How dare you blame me for doing what I accused you of! I’m a victim!” BS.

I don’t believe vindictive is a legal argument supporting a not guilty plea.

This worthless degenerate criminal is a victim. She is a victim of her own shriveled, criminal mind. What a sociopathic loser.

Yes, the case against Letitia is probably vindictive.

But, there are a lot of cases where the complainant only filed the case because the other person did something bad against them.

For instance, Person #1 lends a friend $1000. The friend is slow about paying it back. Then the friend says something nasty about Person #1 on Facebook. So Person #1 goes to Small Claims Court to get the money back from the friend.

What President Trump did or said is irrelevant.

As a lawyer, she relied on other lawyers to do her deals and signed where they told her to. She foolishly failed to read and understand what she was signing.

That’s what I’m pretty sure happened.

Isn’t this exactly what she did? The judge should hold her and her lawyer in COntempt for even making this argument
