    1. @Ash Roskell I’M FROM NEW YORK TOO SO I’VE KNOWN HOW TRUMP WAS & IS SINCE I WAS IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL & HE’S BEEN INVOLVED IN OVER 3,500 LAWSUITS SO HE GONNA DO AS HIS LAWYER TAUGHT HIM & ROGER STONE TOO=DELAY, DEFLECT & DENY & THATZ WHY HE’S STALLIN’ CONGRESS OUT BY TELLING ALL HIS PEOPLE TO IGNORE THEIR SUBPOENAS & THAT WAY THEY CAN=DELAY, DEFLECT & WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO THE COME DOWN=DENY!! MICHAEL COHEN & MANAFORT ETC.ETC. ALL TRIED THAT STRATEGY UNTIL IT GOT THEM SOME EXTRA CHARGES BUT HE CAN’T PLAY OUR ATTORNEY GENERAL LIKE THAT & EVENTUALLY SHE’S GONNA PASS OFF EVERYTHING SHE FINDS WHICH SHE ALREADY HAS TO CONGRESS SO THEY CAN DO THEIR THANG CUZ AS YOU’VE HEARD SHE’S DOIN’ HERS WITH 17 INVESTIGATIONS & COUNTING WHILE THEY AIN’T REALLY ON INVESTIGATION #1 ‘CAUSE TRUMP KEEPS PLAYING THEM & HOPING HE CAN STAY IN OFFICE BECAUSE AS SOON AS HE LEAVES ITZ A WRAP!!✊😎💯💪🗽🌉🌉🗽✌😂😂😂😂😂

    2. @Ash Roskell That’s right, I’ve had the pleasure of her helping me when she was Public Advocate in NYC, I had a problem for 6 months, when I went to her for help the problem was resolved in
      2 weeks. I said shoot, I should have went to her office first and spared myself all that unnecessary time lost.

  1. Every Elected Official Should Have Their Prior 4 Years And Current Finances Made Public
    Thumbs Down For No
    Thumbs up for Yes

    1. @Valdagast Bernie has shown his tax reports. Nothing criminal on his part. Trump doesn’t want the world to see he is in the pockets of Russia and Saudi’s.

    2. @Ian G Great. And I hope he gives 5000 accountants 5 years of work , only to shut up the constant noise from liberal Democrats in Congress, or governors and attorney generals in states like California and New York; that are doing all of this simply as a ” Yeah we’ re gonna get Trump now ! ” retaliation.

    3. @juicy420jam Absolutely. But he is a politician who grew rich. If all rich politicians are corrupted and Bernie is a rich politician…

    4. @Valdagast He got rich from writing a book that was a best seller. That doesn’t qualify as being corrupt. Constructive thinking is obviously not your strong suit. Maybe buy Bernie’s book and learn a thing or two.

  2. She’s gonna get trump!!! This lady is more intelligent than anyone in the trump’s administration…

    1. @harry johnston No. Much more, potentially. Ultimately Mueller could merely bark, this lady can, and most likely will, BITE. SDNY under Guilliani brought down the Mafia families in NYC. They know how to deal with crooks.

  3. Yeah to the great state of New York & AG Letitia James … thanks for standing up for America … wish the great state of New York would pass a similar law just passed in California requiring candidates for president to release their tax returns in order to appear on the primary ballot in March, 2020.

    1. @Sheik Yo Booty Since you put it that way, that would be his greatest achievement! He did something right.

    1. That’s right, she’s GOOD and I’m speaking from experience. Somebody was trying to screw me over for 6 months, they gave me a hard time, I went to her office that situation was settled in 2 weeks. At that point in time she was the Public Advocate for NYC, then she was elected for her present position.

    2. @Shah Bashah Yes she is, she don’t play. I’ve had the pleasure of her assisting me. She kicked butt.

    3. @Drew Drewski Yes it was, I did the happy dance. I said “Oh Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah,” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  4. So this is why Trump has been acting more deranged than usual. His worst nightmares are now having nightmares, and he’s terrified that all of them are about to come true. 😆

    1. @doobiewah357
      So of course you never addressed what I said, you ‘deflected’ instead. I’m not surprised, actually expected it. Whataboutism at best….lol

    2. Me thinks you are right. Once those taxes are exposed he will standing on the White House lawn in a tin foil hat.

    1. @a. barker I’m waiting for him to call her “NASTY” next. As he calls all powerful women he doesn’t like. I wouldn’t doubt he has already and I just missed it. She is a powerhouse and he’s in trouble!!

    2. @Angela Mitchell She is. I don’t see this being her only ambition. She can do a great deal of good for this country. Love her take no prisoner attitude because he’s President. It’s because you are President!

  5. this New York state AG sounds more presidential than the president. Team trump set the “barr” so low that this woman could leap it in her heels, or just step over it and not even realise it was a thing…. I mean I have zero say in US politics but IF i was a citizen and I had to pick between angry name calling on twitter vs structured and intelligent conversation.. I’d go for structure and intellect

  6. Well, Cmrd Don better not make fun of her or call her names because then she is going to get especially mean. LOL. Bravo, Attorney General James! I am a total fan.

  7. You got it her first folks: Trump will be the first former POTUS to be indicted of various crimes right after leaving office.

    1. Mueller confirmed twice during his Senate testimony, and in the Mueller Report, that the only reason Trump wasn’t already indicted, was due to a DOJ memo on not indicting a sitting President. And he confirmed twice that Trump can be indicted for the Obstruction of Justice, the moment he’s out of office.

      So yes, this will likely be a new one for the History books. Our first criminal POTUS.

  8. I hope Letitia James single-handedly takes down the corrupt Trump organization. Just take a look at Trump university, Trump charities, and not to mention the Trump real estate empire. All frauds!

  9. Eric Trump 2014…”We don’t rely on American banks. We have all the funding we need out of Russia.” – Lets see how much funding they did get

  10. AG James is a force of nature. I would not want to sit on the wrong side of the courtroom from her. She is always welcome to sit at our dinner table however.

  11. Trump is a liar, clear and simple. What is he doing being president. No one in their right mind should support him, republicans or democrats.

    “Donald Trump was the dumbest goddam student I ever had” Professor Kelley – Wharton

    1. Ian Home yep, a liar, a misogynistic narcissistic racist and pathological liar….incompetent to the bone.

  12. Game over once his taxes are exposed and he knows it. Those at the IRS withholding information need to be jailed until they comply. Its the only thing they’ll understand.

    1. YUP YUP BUT CONGRESS AIN’T DONE WITH YET THEY’RE JUST ON VACATION RIGHT NOW!!🇺🇸✌😂😂😂

  13. She’s a Trump Triple Threat………..smart, black and a woman. All three of which he can’t abide.

    1. We need more women in high positions, period. And hopefully they’ll follow Ms. James strength of character.
