New York Attorney General Letitia James, who was arraigned on Friday on charges of mortgage fraud, pleaded not guilty and said in a self-serving statement, "No one is above the law." No, that's not it … she joined the Democratic Party in saying that her arraignment wasn't about her; it was about all of us, and a justice system which has been used as a tool of revenge.
Revenge for what? This is a woman who campaigned on getting Donald Trump and took great pleasure in posting daily the interest accruing on his half-billion-dollar fine that was overturned by a state appeals court.
This isn’t about me. It’s about all of us.

It’s about a justice system which has been weaponized. A justice system which has been used as a tool of revenge.
My faith is strong. I have belief in the justice system and the rule of law. pic.twitter.com/rhOlswUlME
No, Letitia James — this is about you. You signed 13 falsified mortgages. That’s not “weaponization,” it’s fraud. The justice system didn’t target you — your own paperwork did. Looking forward to the next meltdown when the superseding indictments drop. https://t.co/FQtoh6wcuI

My faith is also strong… I believe @TishJames will get the justice she deserves.

Her only chance is to frame this as political. She knows it and it’s why she is spending all this time speaking about it.

If she was innocent, she wouldn’t need to say anything.
Still, let’s let the process work and justice be served.
James is trying to project her many crimes away from herself. No can do.

She wants to make it about big bad Trump because she can’t defend against the evidence.

@TishJames cannot accept responsibility for her actions. Narcissists have a hard time doing that.

What does “it’s about all of us” mean? 🤷🏻♀️

Back in August, The Atlantic's Conor Friedersdorf wrote that too many federal and state leaders had submitted home-loan applications with falsehoods in them to make felons of them all. Everybody does it! That's why it's about all of us.
Dear Letitia those long miserable cold nights year after year lying on hard concrete while enjoying nice tepid water from the sink on your toilet. Screams from your fellow prisoners all night long. The smells of desperation and fear. Thanks to Sam Antar.

No it’s about you dear. I did not commit mortgage fraud.

It's rich hearing James complain about a justice system that's been weaponized.
