Okay, Let me tell you about Big Tish, which is hilarious. I love Mike Davis at the Article 3 project is always calling her Big Tish. I love that. Big, tiny, big fat Fannie Willis. Big, fat Tish James. These are preposterous people who've grossly abused their power as government prosecutors in order to try and destroy their signature political opponent. That would be President Donald J. Trump. And thankfully, President Trump, of course, got the last laugh because he both won the election and is now apparently holding Tish James. Letitia James, the Attorney General of the state of New York, accountable for what appears to be the crimes that she committed. Now, let me take you back in time in terms of how Letitia James came into being. Who she is, what she stands for. Letitia James ran to become the state attorneys general on the idea that she would destroy Donald Trump. She made it a part of her campaign. Oh, I'm going after him. He's surely committed crimes, and we are going to use the weight of the, of, of the justice system in New York to hurt this man. Her goal, of course, was to debilitate him, to stop him from being able to mount yet another successful run for President of the United States. And she failed miserably in that goal. But it was not for a lack of trying. No, not at all. In fact, Letitia James, in late 2023, you know, in the heat of the election, announced a lawsuit against President Trump, accusing him of, of defrauding banks in order to secure loans at favorable terms. You remember this saga. This is the one where the New York State establishment and Judge Arthur Engoron, that lunatic, wild haired lunatic, were accusing President Trump of overstating the value of Mar A Lago. And then these idiots insisted that Mar A Lago was valued at 18 million, which is, as anybody who even has a cursory understanding of Palm beach real estate would tell you, this is insanity. There's no way that Mar A Lago, that beautiful estate right next to the Palm beach airport, would be worth 8, right on the water is worth $18 million, you know. No, not at all. It's a storied estate, a beautiful estate, and it's worth a lot more than 18 million bucks. And yet the state of New York kept saying that it's only $18 million under Letitia James, under Arthur Engoron. And so they go after President Trump for this. And in this rigged court where, remember, there were no victims here, all the banks said they were perfectly happy with their business with President Trump. They found no fault in his valuations. They said he routinely paid all of his obligations on time and they would love to do business with him again. Once again, a victimless scenario in a novel and abusive use of the law. At the end of it, the left imposed, Arthur Engoron imposed a massive, massive fine on President Trump for nothing. For nothing. They concluded that he owed $355 million. $355 million in, in a civil fraud verdict. Take a look at this here. I got the articles from the time. Look at this bad boy. A $355 million claim against President Trump after Friday's eye popping penalty in his New York civil fraud trial. The AP described gleefully in February of last year. He's going to need his cash. A judge ordered the former president to fork over $355 million of his fortune to plus interest, finding he lied for years about his wealth on financial statements that he used to secure loans and make deals as he built the real estate empire that vaulted him to fame in the presidency. So this is insane is what it is. A gross abuse of government power in a situation where nobody was victimized. And then in the last 24 hours, something really interesting has developed, really fascinating and so, so sweet. Suddenly, the feds now have credible evidence that it's Letitia James who has been defrauding lenders. Letitia James who has been telling lies. Letitia James, who has been securing loans through the use of those lies on favorable terms, is, in other words, defrauding these lenders to her own benefit. That's the news now. And here we go. Here's the New York Post with a version of this reporting this morning. Trump administration refers New York Attorney General Letitia James for potential prosecution over alleged mortgage fraud. New York Attorney General Letitia James, who infamously declared that no one is above the law when she was targeting Donald Trump, was just hit with a federal criminal referral for instances of alleged mortgage fraud on Tuesday, according to a letter that was just obtained by the New York Post. That letter, written by Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte, who sent it to Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, alleging that Letitia James, the Attorney General of New York, had falsified her own records to get home loans for for a property in Virginia that she claimed was her principal residence in 2023 while still serving as a New York State prosecutor. This occurred in late August of 2020, three, weeks before James began her civil fraud trial against the Trump Organization for over inflating the value of its properties, which ended in a $454 million judgment. That was initially. You get that detail. This fraud that the feds have discovered occurred in late August 23rd. That is just weeks before she prosecuted President Trump for what she herself had actually done. Oh, he's defrauding lenders. No, sweetheart, you're defrauding lenders. You're the one who did this. This is a case of projection, and it's instant. It's the second she's defrauding the lenders. She comes out and she goes, well, somebody else must be defrauding lenders. Maybe it's Donald Trump. Let's prosecute him. That's what happened. A little bit more for you. Now you have to take a look at this letter because the letter is dense with all sorts of scandalous information about how this all went down, how all of it went down. These are the receipts you're looking for. Here's the information. Take a look. This comes to us once again from the Federal Housing Service. The head of US Federal Housing, William Pulte, who sends this letter to Pam Bondi and Todd Blanche. And he said based on media reports he's discovered Letitia James has in multiple instances falsified bank documents and property records to acquire government backed assistance and loans and more favorable loan terms. This has potentially included the following one, falsifying her residence status for a Norfolk, Virginia based home in order to secure a lower mortgage rate. Here's I gotta tell you something about New York State law that you have to know here. Letitia James cannot, by New York State law, live in another state. If her residence is officially in a completely different state, her job is vacated, meaning she is not the Attorney General of the State of New York anymore. This case goes far beyond just who did she defraud when it came to some banks. It goes to to what extent did she defraud the people of the State of New York if she actually established her residence in a completely different state, New York State law dictates she's not allowed to be the Attorney General anymore. You are not allowed to hold public office in New York if you're not a resident of the state. And that would also mean that the ensuing prosecution of President Trump that took place just weeks later was itself a total scam for yet another reason, because she wasn't the lawful Attorney General of the state. I am very eager to see where all of this goes. The Trump administration identifying this, handing this now off to the Justice Department, the Attorney General, Pam Bondi, and saying, now's your chance, you can prosecute this. Here's what else we know. She's also believed to have, quote, misrepresented property descriptions to meet stringent requirements for government backed loans and government assistance. In other words, she's stealing from the taxpayers. On August 17th of 2023, this would be just weeks before she prosecuted Trump, Letitia James granted someone called Shamice Thompson Hairston power of attorney to make a Virginia property her principal residence. And on August 30th and 31st, through her attorney, Letitia James purchased this property in Norfolk in a Fannie Mae Freddie Mac form ended mortgage documents. She reaffirmed that would be Letitia James, that this would be her primary residence despite being a statewide public office holder in the state of New York at the very same time and primarily residing in the State of New York. In fact, a building permit that was issued on her New York property on July 15th of this past year refers to it as the James residence and says it, quote, remains occupied. So she's now claiming two different properties as her quote, primary residence. And anybody who's ever had to deal with taxes or mortgages or anything related to having a home or having a second home, say an investment property. You know that these distinctions are not meaningless. These are massive distinctions that give you meaningful financial advantages. And here she is taking, taking advantage of the taxpayer. Primary residence mortgages receive more favorable loan terms, including lower interest rates than secondary residence mortgages. Lenders view secondary residence mortgages as significantly riskier than as a borrower is more likely to continue paying off a primary residence during any financial hardship. Well, that makes a lot of sense. If you fall on hard times and you can't make the bills work, what's the place that you're gonna work the hardest to keep? What's the home you live in, your second home? Well, you might let some of those payments lapse. That's why lenders are concerned about that. Interest rates on secondary residence mortgages are typically from a quarter to half a percentage point higher than their primary residence counterparts. However, this gap can actually widen depending on the lender at the time of the purchase. Letitia James was the Attorney General of New York and is required by law to have her primary residence in the state of New York, even though her mortgage application lists her intent to have the Norfolk, Virginia property as her primary home. Isn't this amazing? Isn't this. Let me zoom in on that a little bit for you so we can see this better. It appears Ms. James's property and mortgage related misrepresentations may have continued to her recent 2023 Norfolk, Virginia property purchase in order to secure that lower interest rate. Okay, so there you go. Then they get into the fact that she's got this Brooklyn property as well. She's got a Brooklyn property that is separate from the place that she lives, not her residence. This is a property where she is, she has a five family dwelling in it. In other words, she's, she's charging people rent to live there. A five family dwelling and that property in Brooklyn, when she secured the mortgage for it, she bought it under the terms of a four unit program in order to receive three federal assistance. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac backed mortgages have favorable rates and terms to traditional private mortgages. Conforming single family loans are subject to a cap of four dwellings per property. Four dwellings, a building that exceeds four units must be treated as a multifamily property and typically as a larger down payment requirement, higher interest rate terms, with interest rates being up to a percentage point higher due to lenders viewing multifamily homes as. As being significantly riskier. So now we found yet another distortion, another misrepresentation, another count of fraud where she's lying about the number of families who are living in this property. How many units are in the property she claimed? 4. In order to get the federal terms, it's actually 5. These are problems. One more for you in this because it's endless. All of the things she's accused of, your endless. They've also included additional documentation here in the referral letter which shows that back in 1983 and then again in the year 2000, Letitia James listed her father as her husband. You heard me correctly, this is typical left wing nonsense. She listed her father as her husband in order to secure a home mortgage. Letitia James in 2000 was once again listed as husband and wife with her father in these documents. They say while this was a long time ago, it raises serious concerns about the validity of Letitia James's representations on mortgage applications. So all the way through. Yeah, that's right. The chat is pointing out this is Ilhan Omar territory Ilhan, who married her brother to commit immigration fraud. Here you have Letitia James on documents claiming that her father is her husband to make these mortgage applications over and over and over again. Evidence of her criminality, of her fraudulence. And so there she was, late 2023, getting in front of microphones. Big Tish James accusing President Trump of. Of wrongdoing, saying that he violated the law, that he. That he overvalued his properties in order to get favorable terms from lenders. This woman was lying on practically every mortgage form she could get her hands on in order to get. Yes, favorable terms. And additionally, according to these documents, to defraud federal taxpayers for access to federal programs that she should not have had access to. That's the Attorney General of New York who should not be in that job if her primary residence is in Norfolk, Virginia. It's against the law. Boy, she's in for a world of hurt, isn't she? Again, I think we've reached the find out phase. I want to remind you of how President Trump responded back when the state of New York, Letitia James, Arthur Angron were insisting that Mar A Lago is worth a mere $18 million. Take a look. Here's the president. They valued Mar A Lago.
