"The charges come just weeks after President Donald Trump criticized Attorney General Pam Bondi in a public social media post that, according to White House officials, was intended to be a private message. Pam: I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that, essentially, same old story as last time, all talk, no action,' Trump wrote on Sept. 20. Nothing is being done. What about Comey, Adam Shifty' Schiff, Leticia [sic]??? They're all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done."
"It's a bizarre case in many respects, he began. First of all, it's incredibly small potatoes. This is a house that was purchased for $137,000 in 2020, a year when the average house in America was sold for $383,000. So any mortgage, any insurance on a house of that value is going to be very small, and in ordinary circumstances wouldn't draw the attention of the Department of Justice."
The Department of Justice indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James on charges of bank fraud and making a false statement related to a mortgage application. The indictment followed public social media criticism from President Donald Trump and occurred amid an ongoing feud after a civil prosecution found the president liable for fraud, a judgment later overturned on appeal. The property at issue sold for $137,000 in 2020, far below the national average, making the mortgage and insurance amounts small. The indictment was brought by acting U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan, who was appointed after the prior U.S. Attorney declined to pursue charges.
