New York Attorney General Letitia James says she’s just another stop on President Donald Trump’s ‘Revenge Tour.’ I'm not going to lie - ‘Revenge Tour’ sounds awesome! It's so much better than that lame ‘Fighting Oligarchy’ tour featuring Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Back to James, she's facing possible mortgage fraud charges. Woo Hoo! So she ran to Chris Hayes, of all people, to whine about it.
Start here. (READ)
Letitia James calls possible mortgage fraud charges against her part of Trump’s “REVENGE TOUR."
"I will respond to these baseless allegations at the appropriate time and in the appropriate way."
"I am 100% confident that it will not result in any criminal indictment or action against me. And that it is nothing more than a revenge tour and that Donald Trump just, just, ultimately got to the “J’s” and I was next."
On listing the Virginia property as her principal residence:
"It's baseless. Everybody knows I'm a resident of New York, specifically Brooklyn. And again, we will respond at the appropriate time in the appropriate way, to these baseless allegations."
It’s not revenge. It’s accountability.
No one is above the law, Tish.
Here’s the full exchange between James and an unprepared Hayes. (WATCH)

Another note on this clip: Chris Hayes, purported “journalist” — claims to not be in possession of the basic facts of the case:

“Here’s what THEY SAID you did."
Isn’t his job to find out what she did?
That’s a rhetorical question. He’s a propagandist. pic.twitter.com/oJcI2WNhvg
Chris looks sad because he knows she's guilty.

If I'm being honest, he always looks like that. As for Hayes being lost, we can’t expect Hayes to do any prep for these interviews.
Posters say James claims she’s confident, but she sounds nervous.

Letitia James sounds scared. She should be. The DOJ wouldn’t be bringing these charges if there wasn’t evidence of wrongdoing.
At the least James is going to have to pay some stiff fines. But DOJ will clearly be pushing for a lot more.
Sucks to be her.

Haven’t we heard that somewhere before?
Yep, ‘innocent’ people have nothing to worry about. Wink, wink.
Commenters say they see panic starting to set in.
She is panicking

She has good reason to panic…there are receipts.
— E (@_eday) April 29, 2025
But she never said that she didn’t commit mortgage fraud, probably because, she apparently did. The documents speak for themselves.
— Ken Jones (@KennethJJones) April 29, 2025
She never outright denies anything.

“Baseless!” is the deflection repeated ad nauseam.
Well, Letitia James is a lawyer after all. Anyway, I really want Trump’s team to print up some ‘Revenge Tour’ t-shirts. List the names on the back like tour dates.
