At a rally for New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani yesterday, New York Attorney General Letitia James made her first public appearance since the Trump administration’s shameful action.

"I stand on solid rock," she declared. "And I will not bow, I will not break, I will not bend. I will not capitulate. I will not give in. I will not give up!" She warned of "powerful voices trying to silence truth and punish dissent" and "weaponize justice for political gain."

Donald Trump wants to end the political career of this rising star, but as Zohran Mamdani told her over the roaring crowd, "For years you have fought the good fight for New Yorkers, and now it’s our time to fight for you."

Will you show that we stand in solidarity with Letitia James (and help advance her political power) by donating to her next campaign here? Chip in here.

Politico reports: "Trump and James faced off for three months in a courtroom in late 2023 during a civil fraud case concerning his family business. Early last year, James won the lawsuit...The judge imposed a massive judgment of nearly half a billion dollars, a financial blow that could have been crippling to Trump at the time."

"We are witnessing the fraying of our democracy, the erosion of our system of government," James warned the packed rally. "This is a defining moment in our history."

"I know what it feels like to be attacked for just doing your job," she continued, "but I also know what it feels like to overcome adversity."

Donald Trump is angry and vindictive. But he doesn't get to turn our judicial system into a kangaroo court.

Show your support for Letitia James and the rule of law today.
