NY AG Letitia James Rips Doj probe stirs into alleged real estate fraud

The competitive Attorney General Letitia James was aimed at her series of lawsuits against the Trump government on New York Bigwigs – when she blew up the brewing investigations in her real estate stocks as “nothing more than retaliation”.

“To date, we have submitted 21, 22, 23 lawsuits against this administration,” she boasted, after giving the keynote at the association for a better New York “Power Breakfast” in Manhattan.

Then she rattled a laundry list of legal disputes that her office submitted, and spanned matters, including citizenship, the financing of the Office for Management and the Household (OMB), the termination of Covid grants and cuts in American.

She also blew up the government’s hard attitude towards illegal immigration and called it “a flaw of moral fibers in our nation”, which “contradicts poetry at the Statue of Liberty, which immigrants welcomes on our banks to look for a better life.”

Asked by the position of a growing number of probes with which it is confronted with suspected cases of mortgage fraud – including a criminal investigation that was initiated by the FBI and the US law firm in Albany at the beginning of this month – James rejected the accusations.

“I don’t know, they keep saying that you will investigate me – as you know that we have submitted a lawsuit against Donald Trump and his family. We have submitted a judgment of 454 million US dollars, which has come into account. I have no idea when this case is decided. This investigation is nothing more than retaliation. It is unfounded,” she said.

The investigation of her real estate stocks, which was first reported by the Albany Times Union, began when the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, William Pulte, sent a criminal transfer to the Ministry of Justice last month.

Pulle claimed James “fake” by claiming in writing that a Norfolk, Virginia, which she bought with her niece in 2023, would be her “main apartment”, while she was a top police officer, and that she had incorrectly presented the number of units in her residence in Brooklyn in order to receive cheaper log terms.

James admitted to make an office company at a form of lawyers’ attorney lawyers as part of the purchase of the Virginia property, but claims that misconduct ends there.

“But before that I had given the mortgage broker that I am actually not based in Virginia in bold capital letters and will never be,” she said.

“You have just taken over the power of the lawyer and you use this as the basis for the enforcement for your investigation. In reality, the lawyer’s authority was never used to determine my justification for a mortgage for a mortgage for a house in the state of Virginia. My niece, who has two children – I wanted her to have a home,” said AG.

The high -ranking lawyer Abbe David Lowell, one of the best lawyers in Hunter Biden in the former son of the first son drawn by Scandal, was retained by the Attorney General.

A James spokesman said that she would pay for a combination of private legal defense funds and state funds, which means that New York taxpayers will ultimately contribute the legal template for at least some of its services.
