On October 21, 2025, I received a phone call. It lasted for 51 seconds. “Hello, this is Letitia James. Your number showed up on my Caller ID. Who is this?” The voice was unmistakable. I knew it was her. I had just finished calling about twenty phone numbers associated with New York Attorney General Letitia James’s seven siblings, hoping to learn more about her niece, Shamice Thompson-Hairston, with whom James had jointly purchased a home in Norfolk, Virginia. I was calling from my California-based cell phone with an 805 area code. However, no one picked up and I had left...

Attorney General Letitia James, the architect of New York state’s mortgage-fraud crackdowns, now finds herself in the position of her former defendants, accused of exploiting the very system she once claimed to defend. The hypocrisy is undeniable. Any attempt by Letitia James to claim ignorance of the law as a defense in her mortgage fraud indictment is all but gone.

In June 2019, New York Attorney General Letitia James stood before the cameras to hail a conviction she...

Indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James was defiant Monday in her first public appearance since being hit with federal charges over allegations she committed bank fraud and lied to a financial institution to obtain a lower mortgage rate. “We see powerful voices trying to silence truth and punish dissent and weaponize justice for political gain,” James told supporters of Zohran Mamdani at a rally for the New York City mayoral frontrunner in Washington Heights. “We are witnessing the fraying of our democracy, the erosion of our system of government,” the Empire State’s top prosecutor argued, describing the current state...

The tenant living in the Virginia house at the center of New York Attorney General Letitia James's federal indictment is a 'fugitive' from justice, the Daily Mail can exclusively reveal. James has reportedly allowed her grandniece Nakia Thompson - along with Thompson's three children - to live in the three-bedroom property in Norfolk since 2020. Now, in an embarrassing twist for Donald Trump's nemesis, Daily Mail has discovered that Thompson is officially listed as an 'absconder' who is being sought by authorities in North Carolina for failing to finish her probation. 'Ms Thompson was sentenced to probation for misdemeanor convictions...

Democrats sound like pull-string talkie dolls as they line up to tremble their lower lips and cry about what Awful Orange Man is doing to their beloved Attorney General Letitia James. It only took about five minutes after the announcement of her federal mortgage-fraud indictment for Dems near and far to wring their handkerchiefs about the injustice of it all. “No one should be surprised that Donald Trump is employing fascist tactics,” fretted mayoral wannabe Zohran Mamdani. “Prosecuting his opponents, weaponizing the federal government, and attacking the very fabric of our democracy.” “Keep your corrupt, grubby, abusive hands off Tish...

<p>ALBANY – New York Attorney General Letitia James could soak taxpayers for millions of dollars in legal bills as she fights her new federal indictment — but she says she won’t be tapping into the $10 million state legal defense slush fund set up for that purpose.</p>

NEW YORK, NY — Sources said the indicted New York attorney general held out hope that she could ease her combative relationship with the president, as Letitia James attempted to smooth things over by sending Trump a heartfelt "Sorry I Maliciously Prosecuted You" card. Indicted on charges of bank fraud after spending the last two years prosecuting President Trump, James reportedly scrambled to perform some type of gesture that would thaw the ice between the two political enemies, eventually deciding that a greeting card was the perfect choice. "Dear Donald, my bad for trying to falsely imprison you," James wrote...

CNN anchor Kasie Hunt defended New York Attorney General Letitia James after she was indicted on charges related to mortgage fraud, Thursday, arguing that James’ alleged crime was “something that everyone in America” does. Reacting to James’ indictment on CNN’s The Arena, Hunt said, “We’re still getting the details, but if it’s related to this mortgage issue, I mean this is something that everyone in America, or many people at least, if you’re lucky enough to be able to buy a house in America, you deal with this, right? The federal government doesn’t go after all of these people for...

CNN star Anderson Cooper took a shot at newly indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James on Thursday, saying her previous vow on the campaign trail to zero in on President Trump was “not a great look” — as the Dem pol now insists that the charges against her are “political retribution.” Cooper brought up James’ conversation with a community activist who asked in 2018 if James was ready to sue the president — then in his first term in the Oval Office — as she ran for the state’s chief law enforcement position. “And she replied, ‘Oh we’re gonna...

Federal agents executing a search warrant at the downtown office of former National Security Adviser John Bolton in late August seized a cache of documents marked as classified, according to court documents. The office mission was the second such search conducted by the FBI following an early-morning raid at Bolton's home. The application for the warrant at his office, according to the filing, was to search for "evidence of a crime" and to locate potential "contraband, fruits of crime, or other items illegally possessed." An inventory of the property taken at Bolton's office indicates several electronic devices, as well as...
