Utopia Talk / Politics / Give me the man & I'll find the crime

Rugian Member	Wed Apr 16 11:12:33 It turns out that politicians who engage in abuses of power and misapplying the law to prosecute their political opponents can equally be the victims of such malign behavior. This is what we plebs call "karma." Turns out there isnt a single person on the planet who cant be the target of lawfare. ---- "Donald Trump's administration is accusing New York Attorney General Letitia James of mortgage fraud, and has made a criminal referral to the the justice department seeking federal prosecution. Officials with the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) allege James falsified bank and property records to receive better loan agreements, an administration official told the BBC. James won a civil case against Trump in 2023 that accused him of overvaluing his properties in order to take out loans with favourable terms. He is currently appealing against the judgment." http://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c7vn1rymz38o

tumbleweed the wanderer	Wed Apr 16 16:09:26 dictatorships are cool (the claims seem pretty weak, unlike against Trump)
Forwyn Member	Wed Apr 16 16:50:00 "misrepresenting a building in New York as a four-unit structure instead of five to get a better loan deal. Pulte also alleged that James claimed a property in Norfolk, Virginia, was her primary residence in 2023" lol if true this is actually much more substantial than arguing about the square footage of a condo
Rugian Member	Wed Apr 16 16:53:46 tumbleweed the wanderer Wed Apr 16 16:09:26 "dictatorships are cool" I wouldnt characterize New York State as a dictatorship. Its more like a banana republic. A banana republic where a partisan prosecutor like Alvin Bragg can literally make up a legal argument out of thin air and use it to procure a criminal conviction. If I was a Republican, I wpuld cut my own dick off before risking a bullshit prosecution by doing business in NY.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Wed Apr 16 18:20:25 "this is actually much more substantial than arguing about the square footage of a condo" how so? not sure how fewer units improves value to begin w/ but that's a 20% change (if even accurate) vs a 300%... i think 300% bigger... (also that was just 1 of numerous properties Trump deliberately bullshitted about) given Trump has specifically targeted numerous law firms who he feels wronged him (despite no actual wrong-doing), i'll bet this investigation was completely corrupt... but they can present their evidence, if anything even comes of it (& i'll bet James will have a defense, unlike Trump who offered no explanation for any of it... except a brilliant 'square feet is subjective' one)

Forwyn Member	Thu Apr 17 09:22:58 "not sure how fewer units improves value to begin w/ but that's a 20% change (if even accurate) vs a 300%..." Because they're an entirely different classification. You can qualify a 4-unit as a personal residence for many loan programs (including VA), but five and up is commercial. It's a direct misrepresentation of the type of property.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Thu Apr 17 11:04:46 which Trump also did for Mar-a-lago, which I suspect was of substantially more value... (again, if even true for Letitia James, I trust zero out of this disgusting lying dictatorship)
obaminated Member	Fri Apr 18 01:33:18 "Dictatorship " Huh. I guess the election was rigged?
Pillz Member	Fri Apr 18 01:40:12 Pretty sure it was also a dictatorship when he lost to Biden too Amazing, that
