N.Y. Attorney General Letitia James is a leader with deep integrity, courage, and an unflinching commitment to justice.
This indictment is about political retribution, pure and simple. It is the latest move by this administration to punish perceived political opposition of any kind.
The weaponization of the federal government could be used by any president – of any party – to punish anyone who disagrees with their agenda. It is a direct attack on the rule of law and the core rights of every American. And it is time for every leader who cares about our democracy to speak up.
As with every authoritarian assault, the real target isn’t one leader, it’s all of us. The goal is to intimidate, silence, and divide. But we see through these attacks – and we will not be silent. We are proud to stand in full solidarity with AG Letitia James and with every courageous leader who refuses to bend to corruption and fear.
