New York Attorney General has made a career out of going after President Donald Trump and proclaiming that “no one is above the law,” but now things have changed.
The Justice Department, led by U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi, has opened a criminal investigation into the Empire State’s top lawmaker, Fox News reported.
Separately, a grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia has started to send subpoenas in a case related to accusations that James committed mortgage fraud when she misrepresented a single-family home in Virginia as her primary residence to get better terms on her loan.
The news came after a criminal referral from the Trump administration’s Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte, who asked the DOJ to investigate James over that accusation and another case where she has been accused of misrepresenting the number of livable units in a Brooklyn apartment building to get better terms on her loan.
