New York Attorney General Letitia James is not taking President Donald Trump’s latest counterattack well. After spending years waging legal war against the former president, she’s now on the receiving end of a devastating blow—one that’s left her fuming in front of the cameras.

“It is important that Attorneys General representing our respective states stand up and enforce the rule of law. The Treasury and the President of these United States are not above the law,” James said.
For someone who once believed she would be the one to bring Trump down, it’s a brutal reality check. Not only has she failed to sideline him politically, but she now finds herself entangled in legal trouble of her own.
