I had the privilege of sitting down with New York Attorney General Letitia James for a powerful and sobering conversation on the MeidasTouch Network—and if you think Trump’s fraud is limited to his bank statements, think again.
Let’s be clear: Attorney General James already made history by holding Donald Trump accountable in court, winning a $486 million civil fraud judgment for his years of cooking the books and inflating his assets to cheat the system. But what she shared with me goes beyond numbers. It’s a warning: Trump’s criminal business tactics are now being replicated in how he’s running the government—and the stakes couldn’t be higher.
James laid it out plainly. Trump and his MAGA enablers aren’t just engaging in fraud anymore—they’re waging a full-blown war on democracy. They’re using fake numbers to justify gutting Social Security and essential services. They’re flooding our institutions with chaos and contempt. And they’re doing it all while trying to consolidate power, punish dissenters, and dismantle the very rule of law.
As James said, “Authoritarian government requires cooperation and consent. But democracy, my friends, requires courage.” Let that sink in.
She didn’t hold back on the damage being done—whether it’s Elon Musk and his merry band of tech oligarchs invading our private data, or Trump’s DOJ lawyers bumbling around in court with no answers, no staff, and no shame. This administration is so sloppy, so corrupt, and so unmoored from the law, it makes Nixon look like a choirboy.
But here’s what gives me hope: Letitia James and a network of Democratic attorneys general across the country are holding the line. When Trump issues one of his authoritarian executive orders—whether it’s trying to terminate protections for Venezuelan immigrants, gut funding for rural schools, or fire federal workers illegally—James and her colleagues are in court filing restraining orders and winning. Over and over again.
She made it clear: this is about more than legal battles. It’s about protecting real people—veterans, teachers, LGBTQ+ communities, immigrants, seniors, working families—who Trump treats as expendable pawns in his quest for power.
And while MAGA Republicans cower in silence, AG James is out here organizing town halls, uniting the resistance, and preparing for every scenario. Project 2025? She and her team have dissected it, mapped it, and are building the legal infrastructure to stop it in its tracks.
So if you’re feeling anxious about the future, I get it. But James urged us all to stand up and “have some steel in [our] back.” She assured us that there are more of us than there are of them, and encouraged us to “tell the stories and let people know that this too, is our country.”
She’s right. It’s time to stand up, speak out, and get loud. Because we don’t need a king—we need a democracy. And with people like Letitia James leading the charge, we’ve got a fighting chance.
If you haven’t yet, go watch the full interview. Share it. Talk about it. Organize. And let’s keep building this movement—because we’re not just spectators in this moment. We’re the firewall.

"Trump doesn't know how to drive.
Trump doesn't know how to pump gas.
Trump doesn't know how to buy groceries.
Trump doesn’t know how to use a computer.
He's lived in a gold, chauffeur bubble his entire life.
He is completely, utterly out of touch with the American people." (Tristan Snell)
And he advertises Tesla's while sitting in one? It won't be the first time he's promoted something without knowing what he's talking about.
Where are the protests from owners of Ford, GMC, Dodge, Chrysler et al (and they’re employees)? Let's hear what they have to say.
Well, Trump himself was against electric cars, until he wasn't.
A pathalogical liar is always for something until he's not.

Trump is damn near illiterate. He consistently makes mistakes when pronouncing words that are outside of his limited vocabulary. It’s embarrassing for the American people. And he’s too ignorant to even be embarrassed.
A mistake because he doesn’t read, doesn’t pay pay attention. He’s not self-aware / cognizant enough to be embarrassed of consistently stupid he sounds. But nothing he does is honest!
He thinks the T on the hood is for him.
Haha, good point.

"Trump voters: We told you this was coming — and you have no one to blame but yourselves.
In just seven, short weeks, the traitor, Donald Trump, has crashed the economy, taken us to the brink of recession, wrecked the government, lost the respect of our friends and neighbors around the world, and surrendered to the murderous Vladimir Putin.
It is EXACTLY what was expected from the proven America-attacker by anybody capable of thinking about anything but themselves heading into November’s disastrous elections." (Raw Story).....
https://www.rawstory.com/raw-investigates/trump-voters-remorse/?u=7b9efb3185bef2bd309f85021fcf366956aa9a477375b276f5af3843618fd1f1
In my immediate family there are 8 of us. Three faithful to Donald, four Dems, and one who votes according to the recommendation of the last person he talks to before he votes. We don't talk politics. But I would rather say to them, "He lied to you." Need to keep the peace.
You are lucky. This atrocity has ripped my immediate family to shreds. It has left me doubting everything I thought I knew about evil . Showed me that I can feel real hate. I do not like it.
I am sorry to hear that. We just treat politics like the elephant in the room. I do send emails to all my family to give them a heads up about things they need to know the truth about--i.e., the possibility that SS is on the chopping block. (But I suspect the Trumpers do not like these emails.) It just makes me mad that they believe him. Two weeks ago my sister said, "You don't have to worry about the economy." Well, I know the stock market is not the economy, but you start messing with that and everything goes to hell. Also when things trickle down and affect my family, I let them know that, too. For example, 8,000 miles away in New Zealand my daughter runs a program to help teenaged girls explore careers in science. They had a $50K grant through the U.S. Embassy last year. Got a letter from the State Department notifying them that the grant is withdrawn because of the DEI Executive Order. So sad and backwards. Good luck.
More attacks on women! Makes me so angry! Such sad news
"The war on women has new momentum now that MAGA is back in power, and it could ultimately lead to American women losing the right to vote, argued a senior writer at Salon.
Amanda Marcotte wrote in Wednesday's piece that Donald Trump's success in repealing Roe — the landmark 1973 decision that gave women automony over their own bodies — has emboldened right-wing factions looking to strip women of even more rights.
Marcotte posted that "many on the right feel they no longer need to hide the naked sexism fueling their movement or put up with the annoyance of women in even token leadership positions," now that Trump is once again in charge.
"Forty-five percent of female voters backed Trump in 2024, despite his overt misogyny," Marcotte wrote. "Most, no doubt, believed that complicity would protect them, and that the attacks would be centered on other women. But while the GOP certainly wants to strip liberal and feminist women of their rights, male MAGA leaders are showing increasing interest in bringing Republican women to heel, both culturally and through the force of law." (RAW STORY)
It just got too hard. It's a no one wins situation. Just gets worse as time goes on. Sad.

"Stop Elon Musk from launching his own currency.
Congress is fast-tracking the GENIUS Act and the STABLE Act, two dangerous bills that would let Big Tech and Wall Street create their own stablecoins, with minimal oversight. This legislation would allow Elon Musk, Meta, or Amazon to become their own private banks, controlling digital money, collecting vast amounts of personal financial data, and even destabilizing the economy.
These bills are a dream come true for crypto speculators and corporate giants. They would allow companies like X (formerly Twitter) to launch their own stablecoins with no meaningful federal oversight posing massive risks to financial stability, consumer privacy, and fair competition.
If a major tech-issued stablecoin failed, it could trigger a market crash that would impact everyone, whether or not you’ve ever used crypto.
At the same time, crypto executives are actively working to weaken financial regulators and dismantle the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), the very agency that would protect people from payment fraud.
Don't let the fraud-ridden crypto industry cause market crashes or collapse the economy. Demand Congress vote no on current stablecoin legislation – the GENIUS Act and STABLE Act – before they create the next financial disaster.
SIGN and SEND
These bills also completely fail to protect consumers. Unlike traditional banks, stablecoin issuers would not have to follow longstanding guidelines that ensure banks serve the communities they profit from.
There are no clear rules for how stablecoin issuers must handle redemptions meaning they could impose excessive fees, long delays, or outright refuse to let people cash out. This could leave everyday consumers holding the bag in the next crypto crash.
The crypto industry is pouring money into lobbying to get these bills passed. But we know what happens when regulators give Wall Street and Silicon Valley too much leeway working people pay the price when their risky schemes collapse.
Congress must not put our economy in the hands of unregulated tech
n the GENIUS Act and STABLE Act now."

"Tell Trump and Elon to stop cutting food programs for kids. Trump and his unelected billionaire crony Elon Musk are making senseless and cruel cuts to essential programs Americans rely on. The USDA pulled $1 billion in funding from two programs that provided money for schools and food banks to purchase food from local farms.
These programs were created under Biden’s administration to simultaneously support farmers and local food producers and provide food to families in need. Schools and childcare facilities were counting on this funding to feed their students. With grocery costs increasing, these cuts are cruel, unnecessary, and put Americans at risk of going hungry.
We’ve had enough of billionaires slashing important programs that people rely on. Join us in telling Trump and Elon Musk to stop their cruel cuts to food programs for kids!" (Left Action)......

Esp when his Health Czar says that the key to immunity is good food (tho it does not replace vaccines). While it ain't that simple, good, fresh food is necessary, and not available in food deserts. That's one reason why more food stamps (sorry, I'm too old to change) allow sugary drinks.
Those food desert stores (mostly gas-station type stores) rarely carry fresh food,and what they have is limited and v expensive.

Remember that story about kid Trump having thrown rocks At a toddler in a playpen in Queens? It has been said that thar was one of reasons father Freddy sent him to military school. Unfortunately, once there, Trump bought (or stole) medals from other students and school looked the other way.
I remember the story of the military school trying to help him develop some responsibility by making him the baseball team’s captain, but instead of developing positive leadership skills, he was an abusive bully and had to be removed. He really does have some serious irredeemable defects. But then, he’s the guy who admires Hannibal Lector. What can possibly go wrong? 😵💫‼️

It frightens me to realize the people who did not read it...nor believe it to be their playbook! I have always admired your expertise. Thank you Meidas for keeping the truth coming!

Trump family is suing Capital One Bank for “de-banking” the Trump accounts after January 6, 2021. Donald continuing on his vengeance tour.
It’s becoming absurd especially all his suits that will only distract from an upcoming attack of some sort, actually already happening internally, while the congress is dithering on whether he means to destroy the world or does it just feel like it?

"Economists at J.P. Morgan are now predicting a 40% chance of the U.S. entering a recession this year, after Trump's disastrous tariff policies. The instability in the government is also leading economists to predict long-term damage to U.S. credit.
Meanwhile the first criminal case involving abortion pills is underway in Louisiana, thanks to Donald Trump's abortion bans." (MeidasTouch)......

Really admire Attorney General Hanes
You need to interview the governor of ca -new some and find out where his head is fir interviewing Charlie Kirk
Steve Bannon etc
His leaning towards gay athletes —complete turn around
This is not the way that he is going to get anyone on his side
I thought he was politically savvy
He is making so many political mistakes right now.
Or maybe don’t ask him and let him commit political suicide
He is barking up the wrong tree
Not sure who or what got to him
One of the rumors that I have heard is his ex wife is meddling now that she is not djtjr finance anymore.

Great interview with Leticia James. She is a rock star.
You give me courage, Ms James. Thank you!
I am thankful for our Attorney Generals who support democracy.
AG James makes us so proud!! I know that she will not let up just as I know He’s definitely afraid of and intimidated by her!
I especially appreciated the answer to the final-final question and AG James' passionate answer, sharing her experiences with fellow Brooklynites with similar concerns. THANK YOU AG James and all of or Dem AGs. I hope ALL of them are participating fully to protect us from the malfeasance of the federal govt in the hands of the wrecking-ball party formerly known as Republicans.
all good and fine but the fact of the matter is this is a coup and i think russia is behind it and as someone has said on here elon and doge left our treasury info wide open. pete got rid of our cyber security and now a foreign agent can just rob us blind then take over.
Excellent interview with the NYAG. She is a rock star!
What an incredible interview with AG James. I admire her love for our constitution and our country. I also admire her not giving up on her goals. She's a very strong woman and I know she's working hard to accomplish them!!!
Thank you Letitia James. You are true to your oath. Much respect for you.
Great guest you got there!! 👏👏👏👏
Everything Trump is doing is illegal... IMPEACH and fire IMPEACH him indict him JAIL him. Trump is a Con Man Traitor INSURRECTIONIST FELON!!!
Thank you Attorney General James. Stay strong.
I WANTED TO ADD THIS SOMEWHERE on Substack.
I’m new to this platform:
I copied it from FB and I’m leaving there ASAP!
Do you relate?
“I will not be drawn into debate over this post. I am aware of the arguments of people who disagree with the statements below. I am posting this for all those who may be living in fear in this moment so you know you are not alone. I share this piece in solidarity. This is where I stand: The 45/47th President, his power hungry cronies taking positions of authority in his Cabinet and administration, and the majority of Republicans in Congress are a real and active threat to me, my way of life, and all or most of the people I love. Some are saying that we should give Trump a chance, that we should "work together" with him because he won the election and he is "everyone's president." This is my response:
•I will not forget how badly he and so many others treated former President Barack Obama for 8 years and Biden cleaning up his mess...Lies about his legitimacy and hatred for his principles and his attempts to work within the system.
•I will not "work together" to privatize Medicare, cut Social Security and Medicaid.
•I will not "work together" to subvert the Constitution by illegitimately pushing unfit Cabinet nominees through on recess appointments without the advice and consent of the Senate.
•I will not "work together" to persecute Muslims.
•I will not "work together" to shut out refugees from other countries who seek asylum.
•I will not "work together" to lower taxes on the 1% and increase taxes on the middle class and poor.
•I will not "work together" to help Trump use the Presidency to line his pockets and those of his family and cronies.
•I will not "work together" to weaken and demolish environmental protection.
•I will not "work together" to sell American lands, especially National Parks, to companies which then despoil those lands.
•I will not "work together" to enable the killing of whole species of animals just because they are predators, or inconvenient for a few, or because some people want to get their thrills killing them.
•I will not "work together" to remove civil rights from anyone.
•I will not "work together" to alienate countries that have been our allies for as long as I have been alive.
•I will not "work together" to slash funding for education.
•I will not "work together" to take basic assistance from people who are at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder.
•I will not "work together" to get rid of common sense regulations on guns.
•I will not "work together" to eliminate the minimum wage.
•I will not "work together" to support so-called "Right To Work" laws, or undermine, weaken or destroy Unions in any way.
•I will not "work together" to suppress scientific research, be it on climate change, fracking, or any other issue where a majority of scientists agree that Trump and his supporters are wrong on the facts.
•I will not "work together" to criminalize abortion or restrict health care for women.
•I will not "work together" to increase the number of nations that have nuclear weapons.
•I will not "work together" to put even more "big money" into politics.
•I will not "work together" to violate the Geneva Convention.
•I will not "work together" to give the Ku Klux Klan, the Nazi Party and white supremacists a seat at the table, or to normalize their hatred.
•I will not "work together" to deny health care to people who need it.
•I will not "work together" to deny medical coverage to people on the basis of a "pre-existing condition."
•I will not "work together" to increase voter suppression.
•I will not "work together" to normalize tyranny.
•I will not “work together” to eliminate or reduce ethical oversight at any level of government.
•I will not "work together" with anyone who is, or admires, tyrants and dictators.
•I will not support anyone that thinks it's OK to put a pipeline to transport oil on Sacred Ground for Native Americans.
•I will not "work together" to legitimize racism, sexism, and authoritarianism.
This is my line, and I am drawing it.
•I WILL stand for honesty, love, respect for all living beings, and for the beating heart that is the center of Life itself.
•I WILL use my voice and my hands, to reach out to the uninformed, and to anyone who will LISTEN:
That "winning", "being great again", "rich" or even "beautiful" is nothing... When others are sacrificed to glorify its existence.

It’s heartening to have individuals like Ben Meiselas and NY AG Leticia James fighting for the American people. I support you both as best I can. Keep on keeping on! Your work is so much appreciated!

"PLEASE SIGN PETITION: Tell Conservative Media: Stop Lying About Election Results. Newsmax just agreed to a $40 million settlement with Smartmatic, a voting technology company, after being sued for spreading false claims about the 2020 election. This follows Fox News’ $787.5 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems last year.
These lawsuits exposed how conservative media outlets knowingly spread lies about the election—lies that helped fuel the violent January 6 insurrection, and undermine faith in American democracy.
Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. That’s a fact. But right-wing media executives decided they could make more money by spreading false claims that the election was stolen. They pandered to Trump’s conspiracy theories and misled millions of viewers, knowing full well their lies could—and did—lead to violence. Now, after years of legal battles, Newsmax and Fox News are paying the price.
Lying about election results for profit is deeply unpatriotic. It’s an attack on democracy itself. These media companies put their bottom line ahead of the truth, stoking dangerous extremism and giving Trump the propaganda he needed to push his “Stop the Steal” movement. Hopefully, these settlements serve as a warning to any other corporation that might consider lying about future election results.
But financial penalties aren’t enough. Newsmax, Fox News, and other right-wing media companies must be held accountable—not just in court, but by the public. We must demand that they stop promoting election lies, correct the damage they’ve done, and commit to honest journalism moving forward.
Sign the petition to tell conservative media: Stop lying about election results. The American people deserve the truth—not propaganda designed to tear our democracy apart." (Civic Shout)......

"Trump and his Department of Justice have just invoked the Alien Enemies Act, a Mass Kidnapping wartime law from the 18th-century that would give Trump the power to unilaterally pick and choose any person he wants to deport.
No process. No checks on his actions. Just his word. Just inhumane targeting.
The courts have temporarily blocked this move, but that doesn’t mean the administration will give up their push to enable Trump access to an unprecedented authoritarian power to pick, choose, kidnap, detain, and deport anyone he does not want in this country — solely because he is President.
We need people to speak out against this horrifying violation of our basic human rights. We are on a fast track towards fascism, and we need everyone to show our opposition against it." (Carolina, United We Dream Action)

"Rubio says South Africa’s ambassador no longer welcome in US, after criticizing Trump.
The move comes amid rising tensions between the U.S. and South Africa. Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, said Friday that South Africa’s ambassador to the U.S. is a “race-baiting politician”, who is no longer welcome in the country — the latest sign of tension between the Trump administration and the African nation.
Rubio declared that Ambassador Ebrahim Rasool is persona non grata in a social media post, after the diplomat accused President Donald Trump of promoting global white supremacy." (Politico)......

"Elon Musk exposed in plot to rewrite corporate law to pad his wallet
Stop SB21: A Delaware judge blocked the outrageous $56 BILLION pay package that Elon tried to give himself — and now Elon is out for revenge. Musk's own attorneys wrote a piece of legislation, SB 21, that would create convenient carve-outs that would allow him and his billionaire cronies to essentially steal from the companies they control. Delaware Senate Democrats passed the bill despite this flagrant power grab, but the House still needs to vote next week.

"NOT THE FIGHT DEMS WANTED TODAY: Ahead of a midnight deadline to fund the government … at a moment when escalating tariffs and raging economic uncertainty have put the Dow on track for its worst week in two years … as President Donald Trump is expected to invoke the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to carry out mass deportations as soon as today … with the president due to speak this afternoon at the Justice Department amid ongoing concerns about its independence and the rule of law … Democrats are seized by a debate over Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s reluctant support for the House GOP’s continuing resolution to avoid a shutdown.
The summary: On Tuesday, the House approved a stopgap that would keep the federal government funded through the end of the fiscal year, 217-213. … On Wednesday, Schumer announced that the House-backed CR did not not have the eight Democratic votes needed to overcome a filibuster — which some observers interpreted to mean that Schumer was going to go all-in on opposing the CR. … Yesterday, Schumer announced that he will support the CR.
What Schumer said: “As bad as passing the continuing resolution would be, I believe a government shutdown is far worse,” he wrote in a Times op-ed, launching into four primary reasons for that calculation:
(1) A shutdown would give Trump and Elon Musk the ability to “destroy vital government services at a significantly faster rate than they can right now;”
(2) Republicans could use the shutdown to “cherry-pick which parts of government to reopen;”
(3) it’d mean “real pain for American families,” and;
(4) it would distract from the “chaos” reining across government and the economy.
Cue the outrage. While it’s almost a certainty that there are a sufficient number of Senate Dems who privately share Schumer’s thinking, you sure didn’t hear from them in the ensuing maelstrom of reactions.
Today, you’re going to want to watch a few different things …
1. The split within the Senate Dem caucus. Support for the CR does not break down neatly along ideological lines. Yes, Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) will vote for cloture. Yes, the most prominent lefties are nos. But it’s striking how many early-tenure Democratic senators — especially those from states Trump carried in 2024 — have lined up in opposition to the CR across a wide spectrum of views.
Consider this: In the hours after Schumer told his colleagues his position on the CR, Sens. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.), Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.), Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.), and Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) all reiterated their opposition to the CR. Add to that mix a few freshmen from bluer states, like Andy Kim (D-N.J.), Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-Del.), and Angela Alsobrooks (D-Md.), and you start to see a breakdown that is perhaps less ideological than generational. These younger, newer members view the world differently, Senate insiders told Playbook last night.
2. The House Dem reaction. One of the most surprising developments of the last 12 hours is that late last night, House Democratic leadership — repeat: not backbenchers — felt compelled to release a fiery statement that does not give Senate Dems who support the CR much of any room for cover.
From the statement: “The far-right Republican funding bill will unleash havoc on everyday Americans, giving Donald Trump and Elon Musk even more power to continue dismantling the federal government,” read the joint release from Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Whip Katherine Clark and Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar. “House Democrats will not be complicit.”
Thought bubble: When was the last time that fellow Brooklynites Jeffries and Schumer seemed on such different pages in such a public manner?
And the caucus seems unified: “Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason,” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) noted last night. The gentlewoman from Queens was at a House Dem retreat in Virginia, where some members were “so infuriated with Schumer’s decision that some have begun encouraging her to run against Schumer in a primary, according to a Democratic member who directly spoke with Ocasio-Cortez about running,” CNN’s Sarah Ferris reports. “The member said that Democrats in Leesburg were ‘so mad’ that even centrist Democrats were ‘ready to write checks for AOC for Senate,’ adding that they have ‘never seen people so mad.’”
3. If not fight now, then when? On some level, this is a debate about what an effective resistance looks like. “In a political economy that requires attention and friction, we are passing up a huge opportunity to fight an unpopular president and his billionaire buddy,” posted Mike Casca, AOC’s chief of staff. “Fights define you. FDR knew this. Harry Reid knew this.”
But but but: Former Reid right hand Adam Jentleson sees it quite differently: “Schumer is right. Dems are understandably spoiling for a fight but this was not it. … Fight — but pick smart fights.”
What would a “smart” fight look like? The “oppose the CR” argument is more or less as Casca laid it out. But there are, of course, other ways to see it. Matt Yglesias offers a different view: The House Dems’ approach failed to bring Republicans to the negotiating table because they ruled out giving any votes to the CR. As a result, the party-line bill had to placate conservative Republicans, and as such, shifted “public policy to the right somewhat.” Senate Dems were left with no cards, and keeping the government open is the less-bad option.
Or, as Senate Republicans see it: “The Democrats have A or B: Keep the government open or yield the authority to the president,” Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.), told my POLITICO colleagues Jennifer Scholtes and Megan Messerly.
That’s the calculation Schumer made: “Musk has already said he wants a shutdown, and public reporting has shown he is already making plans to expedite his destruction of key government programs and services,” Schumer said on the Senate floor last night. “A shutdown would give Donald Trump the keys to the city, the state and the country.”
The question now: How many other Senate Dems are making the same calculation?" (Politico)

❌ DOGE accidentally revealed the location of a classified secret national security complex and 13 other sensitive sites;
❌ Admitted to lying about 1,000 cases of so-called wasteful spending and had to issue 1,000 corrections;
