Prison Time? Letitia James’s $200K Mortgage Fraud Scheme Could Put Her Behind Bars For 15–30 Years

0

(DC Pundit) – Letitia James, New York’s Attorney General and self-proclaimed crusader against “financial fraud,” may have written the opening chapter of her own downfall. Mortgage records reveal that James signed off on what appears to be a fraudulent $200,000 “Credit Line Mortgage” with Citizens Bank back in 2021 and the penalties tied to her actions could carry serious prison time.

According to the documents, James misrepresented her five-unit apartment building in Brooklyn as a single-family dwelling. Why? Because commercial mortgages for multi-family properties come with much steeper costs and higher interest rates. By downgrading her property on paper, James avoided thousands in fees and landed herself a cheaper deal. That’s not a paperwork error, it’s deception.

The Certificate of Occupancy for James’s building at 296 Lafayette Avenue is crystal clear: it is legally designated as a “FIVE (5) FAMILY DWELLING.” Yet for two decades, James refinanced her property by claiming it had fewer units — first four, and then in 2021, she went all in by calling it a one-family home.

The financial incentive is obvious. Commercial closing costs can run up to seven times higher than residential ones, and interest rates for commercial loans often climb 1–3 percentage points above what homeowners pay. The mortgage James signed showed her total “Fees and Taxes” were just $4,070. Had she been truthful, her costs would have skyrocketed to $20,000 or more, plus a commercial appraisal, legal fees, and other expenses.

Here’s the kicker: under New York Penal Law Article 187, fraud involving loans over $50,000 qualifies as Mortgage Fraud in the Second Degree, a Class C felony punishable by up to 15 years behind bars. But because Citizens Bank is federally insured, federal statutes raise the stakes even higher, with penalties of up to 30 years in prison. The statute of limitations on her 2021 loan doesn’t expire until at least 2026, meaning prosecutors still have time to act.

And let’s not forget, James herself has argued — repeatedly — that fraud is still fraud even if no bank loses a dime. That was her entire case against President Donald Trump, when she declared, “When powerful people cheat to get better loans, it comes at the expense of honest and hardworking people. Everyday Americans cannot lie to a bank to get a mortgage to buy a home, and if they did, our government would throw the book at them. There simply cannot be different rules for different people.”

Well, well. By her own definition, James looks like a walking case study in hypocrisy. She set the standard, and now she’s been caught red-handed breaking it.

The reality is simple: if the same rules apply to everyone, then James should be staring down an indictment. New York Attorney General Letitia James built her career claiming no one is above the law. Now she might get the chance to prove she was right — from the defendant’s table.

From Angels To Activists: Victoria’s Secret Promotes Transgender Model

(DC Pundit) – Woke isn’t dead, in fact, it’s strutting down the runway in lingerie. Alex Consani, a man who pretends to be a woman, is celebrating his latest milestone: officially becoming a Victoria’s Secret angel for the 2025 runway show.

“Can’t stop smiling! So happy to have the opportunity to shoot with the baddest group of girls and the best team there is!” Consani wrote in an Instagram post, sharing behind-the-scenes images from the photoshoot — including a “tuck kit” meant to minimize the visibility of his genitals. Nothing says fashion like packing your genitals into a kit and calling it glamour.

Consani first appeared on the Victoria’s Secret catwalk last year, becoming one of the first transgender models featured in the brand’s fashion show alongside Valentina Sampaio. Last year also saw Consani, who has walked for Chanel and Stella McCartney, take home the Model of the Year award at the 2024 Fashion Awards in London, the first transgender winner in the award’s history.

“I’m the first trans woman to win this award,” Consani said, eliciting polite applause from the crowd. “But I can’t accept this award without thinking of those that came before me, and specifically the black trans women that really fought for this space that I’m in tonight.” One can’t help but notice the fashion industry continuing to highlight identity over artistry.

Consani also thanked his parents for supporting his modeling dreams from age 12. “And that’s something that I think a lot of other parents of trans children should follow,” he added. Social media clearly agrees — the model has over six million followers on TikTok, a platform where visibility often trumps talent. After signing with IMG Models in 2019, Consani debuted on the Tom Ford runway in 2021, proving that the industry rewards self-branding as much as modeling skill.

The Model of the Year award is determined by a combination of industry panel decisions and public votes, honoring those considered to have “dominated the industry” or made a “global impact” over the last twelve months. Last year’s nominees included black transgender model Kai-Isaiah Jamal, though plus-size model Paloma Elsesser ultimately claimed the prize.

Alex Consani’s 2025 angel debut is more than just a runway appearance, it’s a clear sign that the left’s cultural agenda is alive, well, and packing a “tuck kit” for the cameras.

Unreal: Liberals Are Now Defending Drug Cartels Just To Attack Trump (VIDEO)

(DC Pundit) – One of the most predictable spectacles in American politics is watching liberals contort themselves into defending the indefensible, just because President Trump took action. They’ve done it with illegal immigration, they’ve done it with soft-on-crime policies, and now, believe it or not, they’re doing it with drug cartels.

Yes, drug cartels. The same murderous organizations that traffic fentanyl across our border, kill thousands of Americans every year, and leave a trail of violence from Mexico to small-town USA. Apparently, the left thinks those guys deserve a little sympathy.

This week, MSNBC trotted out Paul Rieckhoff, a military veteran turned liberal activist, to criticize Trump’s latest move against narco-terrorists. What was Trump’s unforgivable crime, you ask? The U.S. military destroyed a drug cartel vessel attempting to move poison into our country. In normal America, that’s called protecting the homeland. On MSNBC, it’s suddenly “dangerous.”

Rieckhoff claimed Trump was somehow putting U.S. troops at risk by taking out cartel operations. Let’s pause on that for a second. Exactly how is it endangering American forces to obliterate the very criminals who are killing Americans in record numbers? If anything, Trump’s decisive action makes the country safer and sends a crystal-clear message to these cartels: try to bring your poison across the border, and you’ll be met with overwhelming force.

This is the same tired playbook Democrats always run. No matter what Trump does—secure the border, rebuild the military, or defend American lives—they rush to TV cameras to scream “dangerous” or “reckless.” Never mind the fact that Trump’s policies save lives, while their policies open the floodgates for fentanyl, human trafficking, and chaos.

The truth is simple. The left hates Trump so much they’d rather side with foreign drug cartels than admit he’s right about protecting America. That’s not just partisan, it’s insane. Trump is doing what a Commander-in-Chief is supposed to do: keep Americans safe.

MTG Goes Nuclear: Vows To Expose Epstein Client List In Congress — “I’ll Say Every Damn Name” (VIDEO)

0

(DC Pundit) – Representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Thomas Massie (R-KY) are putting the political class on notice: the Epstein cover-up is ending. On Wednesday, both vowed to read the names of Epstein’s abusers and enablers out loud on the House floor if that’s what it takes to drag the truth into the sunlight. Considering how many elites have been hiding in the shadows for years, you can almost hear the panic at D.C. cocktail parties.

The moment came during a press conference where victims, hosted by Greene, Massie, and Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA), broke decades of silence. Their demand was simple: justice and transparency. Meanwhile, the Department of Justice continues to sit on a mountain of files.

Massie is pushing the Epstein Transparency Act to pry those files open. His discharge petition would force a full House vote requiring the DOJ to release almost everything, with only the victims’ private information redacted. The guilty, however, would no longer have the government running cover for them.

Epstein survivor Lisa Phillips remarked, “We know the names. Many of us were abused by them. We will compile the names we all know were regularly in the Epstein world, and it will be done by survivors and for survivors; no one else involved.” Translation: survivors are tired of the media’s kid-glove treatment of Epstein’s powerful pals.

Chauntee Davies went further, openly tying former President Bill Clinton to the Epstein orbit, recalling a trip to Africa with him while she was being “manipulated” and abused. For years, the press has treated Clinton’s connections to Epstein as some fringe conspiracy theory. Turns out it wasn’t the tinfoil crowd making things up, it was the establishment trying to keep the lid screwed down tight.

Greene, in trademark fashion, promised she’ll do what others are too scared to attempt. “If they want to give me a list, I will walk in that Capitol on the House floor, and I’ll say every damn name that abused these women,” she told reporters. Greene admitted the survivors could be sued “into poverty and homelessness” by “some of the richest, most powerful people in the world,” but she isn’t backing down.

Massie confirmed his petition is already at 214 signatures, just four shy of forcing the vote. “I’m 99% certain we’ll get 218,” he said, while warning that Speaker Mike Johnson might try a procedural stunt to protect the establishment.

For years, the rich and connected thought Epstein’s secrets would be buried with him. Greene and Massie are betting otherwise, and judging by the fury of survivors finally speaking out, Washington’s elite may soon find their names echoing from the House floor.

DERANGED Joy Reid Pushes Sick Conspiracy: Claims Trump Wasn’t Shot In Butler, PA (VIDEO)

(DC Pundit) – Former MSNBC host Joy Reid has always had a flair for saying bizarre things, but her latest rant takes it to an entirely new level. During a recent podcast appearance, Reid questioned whether the July 2024 assassination attempt on President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, even happened.

Reid scoffed, “He’s got these magical doctors who claimed that he was shot in the ear, but his ear, I guess, grew back. He had a Duplo bandage on one minute, no bandage the next. We can’t get a medical record from this alleged assassination. He was supposed to be shot. We have nothing. We’ve got nothing. You can’t even ask.”

This is the sort of commentary that makes conspiracy theorists on YouTube look restrained. Reid, who was shown the door by MSNBC last year for being too unhinged even for their standards, seems determined to prove the network was right to cut her loose. Without a corporate filter to rein her in, her rhetoric has only become more erratic.

Let’s be clear: the assassination attempt on President Trump was no illusion. The attack left Corey Comperatore, a 50-year-old firefighter and father, dead after he bravely shielded his family from gunfire. Others were injured. Law enforcement, eyewitnesses, and endless video footage confirm exactly what took place. Reid’s bizarre denial doesn’t just insult the President, it dishonors the sacrifice of a man who gave his life protecting his loved ones.

It’s one thing for a washed-up media personality to chase attention with outlandish claims. It’s another thing entirely to spit on the memory of victims in the process. Imagine being the Comperatore family and hearing someone dismiss the day’s horror as if it were staged theater.

Reid’s meltdown also highlights a broader problem on the Left: when reality doesn’t fit their narrative, they simply invent an alternate one. In this case, it’s the unbelievable claim that an assassination attempt witnessed by thousands and broadcast live across America never even happened.

Conservatives already knew Joy Reid was detached from reality. Now she’s confirmed it beyond all doubt. The sad part is that while she babbles into a microphone, families like the Comperatores are still living with the real cost of political violence, a cost Reid finds convenient to deny.

Broke In 2019, $30 Million Today: Ilhan Omar’s Stunning Riches Don’t Pass The Smell Test

0

(DC Pundit) – Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar has spent plenty of time sneering at critics who point out her growing fortune, dismissing it as “ridiculous” and “categorically false” to say she was worth millions.

Omar, who pulls in a congressional salary under $200,000 a year, now reports a net worth ranging anywhere from $6 million to as high as $30 million. Not bad for someone who lectures Americans about inequality while cozying up to the Bernie Sanders wing of the Democratic Party—the same crowd that rails against the rich while magically managing to get rich themselves.

The Washington Free Beacon laid out the jaw-dropping numbers: “Rep. Ilhan Omar’s personal fortune exploded to upwards of $30 million in 2024, the Minnesota Democrat disclosed just months after telling the press it is ‘ridiculous’ and ‘categorically false’ to say she is worth millions of dollars. Omar reported in her latest financial disclosure that she and her husband, former political consultant Tim Mynett, accumulated a net worth at the end of 2024 ranging from at least $6 million to $30 million. Their wealth is derived almost entirely from the value of Mynett’s ownership stake in his two companies that, together, were worth no more than $51,000 at the end of 2023. The exact value of Omar’s personal fortune at the end of 2024 is unclear—lawmakers disclose the value of their holdings and debts in ranges. Still, the figures in Omar’s latest disclosures show that her and her husband’s net worth skyrocketed by at least 3,500 percent in just one year.”

Let’s pause there. A net worth that grows by 3,500 percent in twelve months? That’s not just impressive, it’s financial wizardry that would make Wall Street billionaires jealous.

So the obvious question becomes: how? And perhaps more importantly, why isn’t anyone in authority demanding answers? If a Republican’s wealth shot up like this, every major news outlet in the country would already have a full-time investigative team camped outside their front door. But when it’s a progressive Democrat, the silence is deafening.

This is the same Ilhan Omar who champions “equity” and rails against the wealthy, all while quietly joining their ranks. The hypocrisy would be laughable if it weren’t so insulting to the Americans footing the bill for Washington’s games.

WATCH: Rashida Tlaib Melts Down At Pro-Hamas Rally: “Look At This Room, Motherf**kers… We’re Not Going Anywhere”

0

(DC Pundit) – Rep. Rashida Tlaib, perhaps the loudest and most radical voice in the Squad, once again showcased her disdain for both America and Israel this weekend. Speaking at the People’s Conference for Palestine, a gathering featuring more open Hamas sympathizers than a Gaza street rally, Tlaib gave a speech that was equal parts rage, defiance, and vulgarity.

From the stage, she portrayed her very election to Congress not as a representation of the people of Michigan, but as some kind of act of “resistance” against the United States and Israel. Instead of speaking about improving life for her constituents, she used the moment to boast that Palestinians have “infiltrated” every corner of American life. That’s not exactly the kind of language most Americans want to hear from someone drawing a taxpayer-funded paycheck.

Tlaib doubled down, saying, “You all, they just don’t get it. They just don’t get it. They will never truly comprehend, even after seven decades, that we aren’t going anywhere. We are just getting started.” She then launched into her most vulgar tirade yet, declaring, “I want to say to all of them: every genocide enabler, look at this room, motherfuckers. We ain’t going anywhere. We are just growing, and growing, and growing.”

This wasn’t a slip of the tongue. It was a deliberate, profanity-laced boast, delivered with pride to a crowd cheering her on. Tlaib, who has a long track record of anti-Israel rhetoric and open hostility toward the Jewish state, is no stranger to controversy. But even by her standards, celebrating the idea of “infiltration” while cursing out anyone who disagrees with her shows just how far off the rails she’s gone.

Instead of condemning Hamas terrorists or acknowledging the brutal attacks that sparked global outrage, Tlaib chose to stand shoulder to shoulder with extremists who cheer violence and chant slogans against America’s closest ally in the Middle East.

And yet, Democrats in Congress continue to give her a free pass. Imagine for a moment if a Republican lawmaker stood on stage, declared their presence in government as proof of “infiltration,” and then screamed profanity at the opposition. The media would be in full panic mode, and the calls for resignation would be endless. With Tlaib, however, it’s business as usual.

For conservatives, this latest performance is another reminder of just how radical the Squad has become and why their agenda must be rejected at every turn.

Ilhan Omar Blasts Trump Official For Saying That Minnesota Church Shooter Was Trans, Calls For Assault Weapons Ban (VIDEO)

0

(DC Pundit) – Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) went on the attack Sunday against White House official Sebastian Gorka, accusing him of trying “to deflect from the reality” of the Minneapolis Catholic school shooting by bringing up gunman Robin Westman’s transgender identity.

Gorka, who serves as President Trump’s deputy assistant and senior director for counterterrorism, told CNN’s ‘State of the Union’ that Westman had an unmistakable “ideological” motive for targeting Annunciation Catholic School earlier this week. Two students were killed, and more than a dozen children and adults were injured while attending Mass.

“That’s what terrorism is,” Gorka said, pointing out that Westman’s twisted manifesto included antisemitic and anti-Israel rhetoric, and that “kill Donald Trump” was scrawled on one of the shooter’s gun magazines.

Gorka went further, highlighting that Westman’s confession—he was “‘tired of being trans’”—fits a disturbing pattern in recent mass shootings involving people struggling with gender identity.

“In just a couple of years, we have seen seven mass shootings involving people of transgender nature or who are confused in their gender identity,” Gorka said. “That is inordinately high.” He emphasized that the concern isn’t about sexual proclivities but about a repeated pattern of violent behavior.

Recent cases back up Gorka’s point. The 2023 Nashville Convent School shooter, who killed six, including three 9-year-old students, identified as transgender. The 2022 Colorado Springs gay bar shooting involved a nonbinary attacker. A 2019 Denver-area high school shooting and a 2018 Aberdeen, Maryland, Rite Aid distribution center shooting also involved transgender gunmen.

Omar, following Gorka on CNN, criticized him for highlighting Westman’s gender identity. “It’s really unfortunate that we have people, you know, like him, speaking on this,” the far-left congresswoman told host Brianna Keilar.

“He talked about their transgenderness, and then he says that shouldn’t really matter,” Omar continued. “These people are all over the place because they want to deflect from the reality,” she remarked.

Omar’s solution? Point the blame elsewhere. She called for banning assault weapons, using the tragedy as yet another reason for sweeping gun control measures.

While Omar focuses on ideology and gender identity, Gorka’s approach highlights the underlying warning signs and patterns of violent behavior, a perspective conservatives argue is often ignored by the left in favor of narrative-driven finger-pointing.

Vile Democrats Claimed Trump Was “Dead” — His Public Appearance Just Humiliated Them All

(DC Pundit) – Over the past few days, Democrats and their media mouthpieces have been spinning one of the most bizarre conspiracy theories yet, claiming President Donald Trump was dead or on his deathbed. Apparently, when Trump takes a couple of days off the public schedule, the left assumes he’s either six feet under or being wheeled into hospice.

The entire circus kicked off when Trump, after a packed cabinet meeting earlier in the week, decided to take a short break from public events. For most normal people, that’s called “rest.” For Trump-hating Democrats, it was an excuse to light their hair on fire.

***********

Hashtags like “#TrumpIsDead” and “#WhereIsTrump” shot to the top of X. Far-left activists and bored keyboard warriors were joined by none other than Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, who posted, “Why don’t you send everyone proof of life first? (Either way, Chicago doesn’t want you here).” Yes, a sitting governor was gleefully fueling death rumors about the president of the United States. Classy.

Not to be outdone, Jon Cooper, the former Long Island campaign chair for Barack Obama, also joined the mob, sneering that Trump’s schedule had no public events and even “joking” with a reference to Weekend at Bernie’s.

But their ghoulish hopes collapsed Saturday morning. Around 8:45 a.m., President Trump walked out of the White House looking relaxed, healthy, and, judging by his crisp white polo, black pants, and trademark red MAGA hat, ready to crush more rumors on the golf course. Accompanied by his granddaughter Kai Trump, he was spotted heading to his club in Sterling, Virginia. Nothing says “proof of life” quite like a golf outing.

And just in case Democrats needed more humiliation, Daily Caller reporter Reagan Reese confirmed she sat down with Trump on Friday for a full interview. In other words, while the left was busy tweeting its little death hoax, Trump was doing what he always does: leading, strategizing, and preparing for the battles ahead.

This entire episode says more about Democrats than it does about Trump. The man takes a couple days off, and they fantasize about his funeral. Meanwhile, when Joe Biden disappears from public view for weeks at a time, we’re all expected to pretend it’s “just fine.”

Trump not only lives rent-free in the heads of Democrats, he apparently also haunts them in their dreams. And judging by his latest public appearance, he’s going to be haunting them for a very long time.

BUSTED: Governor Newsom Accidentally Admits That Illegal Aliens Are Casting Ballots (VIDEO)

(DC Pundit) – California Governor Gavin Newsom has let the cat out of the bag while defending his state’s sanctuary laws. Warning that Immigration and Customs Enforcement might show up at polling places to “chill participation,” Newsom revealed more than he probably intended. Translation: Democrats know illegal voting is happening, and they’re banking on it.

For years, Democrats and their media allies have repeated the tired mantra that non-citizen voting is a “myth.” They’ve called it fearmongering, dismissed it as conspiracy, and even mocked those who dared raise the issue. But the facts, those stubborn things, tell a different story.

A 2014 study published in Electoral Studies found that roughly one-quarter of non-citizens were likely registered to vote, and more than six percent admitted casting a ballot in 2008. That study concluded those illegal votes likely shifted critical contests in Democrats’ favor, including a Senate race that gave Barack Obama the majority needed to ram through Obamacare. Even more telling, over 81 percent of non-citizens who voted in 2008 said they supported Obama. Shocking? Not really.

Fast forward to recent years. ‘Just Facts’ updated the numbers using 2022 Census data and found that between 10% and 27% of non-citizens nationwide are illegally registered. With nearly 20 million non-citizen adults in the country, that means anywhere from two to five million are sitting on voter rolls right now. Based on turnout rates, that could translate to one million—maybe even three million—illegal ballots cast in 2024. For perspective, presidential elections have been decided by far smaller margins, and control of Congress often hangs on just a handful of seats.

Democrats like to shrug and insist the problem is “too small” to matter. But when elections are determined by razor-thin differences in swing states, even a fraction of those illegal votes could flip the outcome. Pretending otherwise isn’t just dishonest—it’s dangerous.

Newsom’s remarks aren’t just a gaffe; they’re an acknowledgment of a strategy the left desperately wants to keep under wraps. The question is no longer whether illegal aliens are voting. The question is how much longer Americans will tolerate Democrats enabling it.
