New York Attorney General Letitia James Pleads Not Guilty
3 weeks ago
New York Attorney General Letitia James has pleaded not guilty to federal charges accusing her of lying on mortgage papers to secure favorable loan terms in a case pushed by President Donald Trump. James left the courthouse Friday smiling to cheers from supporters, who chanted, “We stand with Tish!” James says the case is about “a justice system which has been used as a tool of revenge." James faces bank fraud and false-statements charges in connection with a 2020 home purchase in Norfolk, Virginia. The Democrat has been a frequent target of the Republican president, especially after she won a massive civil fraud case against him.
