In a massive accusation toward leftist lawmakers, the Trump administration has filed a criminal referral against New York Attorney General Letitia James over mortgage fraud.
See the video below.
The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) sent the referral to the Department of Justice, accusing James of falsifying records to obtain favorable loan terms – the very type of activity she has prosecuted others for.
FHFA Director William Pulte’s referral to the DOJ contains multiple damning allegations against James.
The documents claimed she misrepresented a Virginia property as her principal residence despite New York law requiring the state’s AG to reside within New York.
She also allegedly listed a New York property as a four-unit structure instead of five to qualify for certain loan programs.
Perhaps most shocking is the accusation that James falsely claimed her father was her husband on mortgage documents.
“Ms. James, for both properties listed above, appears to have falsified records in order to meet certain lending requirements and receive favorable loan terms,” Pulte wrote in the referral letter.
These fraudulent activities reportedly occurred in August 2023, shortly before James’s civil fraud trial against the Trump Organization.
The revelations first surfaced weeks ago when retired NYPD inspector Paul Mauro reported on documents presented by Sam Antar.
“The documents presented by Sam Antar, and the research he has done, appear entirely authentic,” Mauro stated.
Moreover, the New York Post previously reported that James and her father were listed as “husband and wife” on property documents dating back to 1983 and 2000.
The irony is impossible to ignore. James has built her career targeting President Trump, securing a $454 million civil fraud judgment against him based on allegations similar to what she now faces.
The AG has repeatedly claimed that “no one is above the law” while pursuing Trump, but now finds herself potentially caught in her own legal trap.
Legal experts suggested the allegations could lead to serious charges including wire fraud, mail fraud, bank fraud, and making false statements to a financial institution.
Attorney Jonathan Turley highlighted James’s legal jeopardy: “These are misleading statements. Either it’s your principal residence or it’s not. Either you’re married to your father or he’s your father.”
President Trump has demanded James’s immediate resignation, calling her a “corrupt politician.”
The timing could not be worse for James, as her office is simultaneously examining potential insider trading related to President Trump’s tariff announcements in what appears to be yet another politically motivated investigation.
The Attorney General’s office has responded defiantly, saying James “will not be intimidated by bullies — no matter who they are.”
James has filed numerous lawsuits against the Trump administration throughout her tenure.
Now, as the tables turn, Americans wait to see if the Attorney General who has made a career out of prosecuting others will face the consequences of her own alleged fraudulent actions.
