Letitia James’s Former Colleague Says ‘Opportunistic’ NY AG Abused Her Power

 Former assistant New York solicitor general Brian Ginsberg has accused New York Attorney General Letitia James of abusing her prosecutorial powers in a case concerning a western New York school district. Ginsberg's claims follow previous criticisms of James’s legal conduct.

1. Allegations of Power Abuse:

• Ginsberg claims James is misusing her authority in a Title IX case involving allegations of sexual misconduct in schools. He urged the Supreme Court to intervene.

• He seeks to clarify the limits of "parens patriae" powers, which allow the government to act on behalf of individuals in specific cases.

2. Historical Context:

• Ginsberg highlighted James’s past actions, including a criticized environmental lawsuit against Pepsi, as examples of her alleged misuse of power. A New York Supreme Court justice reprimanded her regarding this case.

• James is accused of launching lawsuits that could be seen as "predatory" and politically motivated.

3. Current Case Background:

• James is pursuing legal action against the Niagara Wheatfield Central School District for failing to protect students from bullying and sexual assault. She argues that her intervention is justified due to the broader impact on the health of New York's citizens.

4. Court Decisions:

• A federal district court dismissed James's suit in 2022, but the Second Circuit Court of Appeals allowed it to proceed in late 2024. Ginsberg argues that this approval was incorrect.

5. Ginsberg’s Advocacy:

• Ginsberg calls for the Supreme Court to set clearer guidelines on the use of parens patriae litigation, asserting that state attorneys general often apply this doctrine too broadly, undermining the legal protections for defendants.

6. Additional Controversies:

• Recently, the Department of Justice has initiated an investigation into James for allegedly falsifying documents to secure favorable loans, mirroring accusations she made against former President Trump regarding his financial dealings.

7. Political Reactions:

• Prominent Republicans, including Rep. Elise Stefanik, have criticized James, pointing out the apparent hypocrisy in her actions compared to her prosecutorial endeavors against Trump.

The allegations against Letitia James raise significant concerns regarding her prosecutorial conduct and the potential misuse of power by state attorneys general. Ginsberg’s suggestions for clarification from the Supreme Court reflect ongoing debates about the boundaries of legal authority within state offices.

In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...
