Our New York Attorney General, Letitia James has her priorities in disarray. She is presently serving personal political objectives, not the people of New York State. With NY state suffering from economic decline, a surge in violence, demoralization of our police forces, random killings, drive by shootings, gang violence, drug sales, ambush attacks on police, smash and grab robberies, and a pervasive viral pandemic with no end in sight…our state’s chief officer of justice is focused on self serving politics.
Apparently with higher office in her sights (she schemed and manipulated to get rid of Andrew Cuomo almost singlehandedly to vacate the governor’s seat she seems to hunger for) while continuing to spend the people’s tax dollars and her official time on high visibility, politically-motivated investigations which profit no one and lead no where—all while the State is rocked by crime and corruption that rise to levels which threaten our very existence and cry out to be addressed, investigated and prosecuted.
One glaring example. The AGs well publicized investigation into the Trump organization. An investigation concerning the charge that some of the NY, Trump properties were evaluated above their actual value when seeking out bank loans and below their actual value when evaluated for taxes. Were this charge actually able to be effectively prosecuted —and not subject to a wide variation of subjective evaluations that are almost impossible to prove or disprove —the first of millions of culprits would be the denizens of Wall Street and every other business in the state. If there was ever a patent waste of time, a fishing expedition, and a “witch hunt” promoted for media attention and political motives…this is one great example.
If Ms James really wants to get the attention of NY voters— of all parties—she must get off the out dated and Clintonesque “Trump attack train” and get to work returning our great state to a safe place to go for a walk, to go shopping and do business. Then perhaps we might look at her as a real possibility for Governor.
