Letitia James' Cop-Assaulting Fugitive Grand-Niece: The Family Business of Dodging the Law in a Subsidized Virginia Pad

Promising if elected, she'd find something on Trump she could use to indict him

Ah, the ironies of progressive privilege never cease to amuse . . . or outrage, depending on your tolerance for hypocrisy. New York's iron-fisted Attorney General Letitia James, who's spent years crusading against "systemic injustice" and turning her office into a personal vendetta machine against Donald Trump, now finds herself indicted for allegedly gaming the mortgage system to house a relative with a rap sheet longer than a CVS receipt. And get this: that relative, her grand-niece Nakia Thompson, isn't just any deadbeat like Hunter Biden, she's a self-avowed cop-hater who's been arrested twice for assaulting officers, all while crashing rent-free (or so she claims) in one of James' Virginia properties. 

Court docs don't lie, guys, but apparently James' conscience might.

Let's rewind to the prologue of this family saga, because Thompson's North Carolina escapades read like a greatest-hits album of bad decisions. 

Back in 2011, in Winston-Salem, she was pinched for "malicious conduct by a prisoner," a felony that sounds like it belongs in a prison-yard brawl scene from Oz. Tacked on were charges of assault on a government official and resisting a public officer, because nothing says "progressive values" like taking swings at cops. 

Thompson pled down that year, copping to the assault and resisting raps, which landed her merely 60 days behind bars. The malicious conduct felony was dropped, naturally. But in 2006, three counts of assault on a government official, plus a misdemeanor probation violation and a larceny charge. Then 2008 brought a bond forfeiture arrest. And don't forget the 2011 traffic citations for driving without a license and a wonky plate. she no-showed the hearing, naturally, leading to a 2019 disposition chat. 

Authorities confirm she's now a full-fledged "fugitive" for absconding parole, hightailing it to Virginia with her three kids after blowing off supervision. As a North Carolina Department of Corrections spokesperson told The New York Post: "Ms. Thompson is listed as an absconder for willfully avoiding supervision by her probation officer.” They added, "She was sentenced to probation for misdemeanor convictions for assault and battery and trespassing. Due to the level of the offenses, the district attorney has designated this case non-extraditable. She faces arrest if located in North Carolina, and possible activation by the court of the suspended sentence."

Fast-forward to the Virginia chapter, where Thompson's been squatting since 2020 in a Norfolk house owned by none other than "No One's Above the Law" Aunt Letitia, the same pad now starring in James' federal indictment for bank fraud. Federal prosecutors, led by U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan in the Eastern District of Virginia, say James lied on her mortgage app, calling it a "second home" she wouldn't rent out to snag a sweet rate. 

But oh, the plot thickens: She allegedly had paying tenants living there, which could net her up to 60 years if convicted on the bank fraud and false statements counts. Thompson herself spilled to a federal grand jury that she's been bunking there with the kids, rent-free. Former newspaper, The New York Times quoted sources close to James claiming she crashes there for "extended periods" herself, sure, because nothing screams "second home, not investment property" like family fugitives and surprise sleepovers.

Virginia has been no picnic for Thompson, either; it's more like a sequel nobody asked for. That same 2020, she pled guilty to petit and grand larceny, both felonies, and got two years' probation plus a $2,020 bill. A bunch of misdemeanors got tossed, along with the felony possession of burglary tools charge (because who needs those in the family photo album?). 

And her driving record? A nine-ticket hall of fame, capped by this summer's July speed-demon special: Four citations in one day, including 80 mph in a 55 zone and an improper highway stop. The year prior she was handed another 80-in-55 ticket, plus a summons for improper child restraint; she was found guilty in absentia and dinged $50. Contributing to the delinquency of a minor? Absolutely. 

It's like she treats traffic laws as optional, much like her parole terms.

James, ever the victim in her own narrative, is denying everything, faster than a Clinton aide at a deposition. Her lawyer branded the charges "tremendous breaches of the public’s trust." At a rally with anti-Semitic socialist NYC mayoral hopeful Zohran Mamdani, James fired back, framing it all as a Trump-era hit job: "We see powerful voices trying to silence truth and punish dissent and weaponize justice for political gain." Pot, meet kettle, James has built her career on exactly that playbook, from endless Trump probes to her real-estate shenanigans. If she's so keen on "weaponizing justice," maybe start with the family fugitive crashing in her subsidized Virginia crash pad. 

Or is that just "dissent" we need to tolerate?

In the end, this isn't just a little mortgage mix-up; it's a masterclass in the elite left's two-tiered justice system. James prosecutes the little guy for far less while her own kin plays hopscotch across state lines, assaulting cops and racking up felonies. 

If conviction sticks, those 60 years might feel like poetic justice. Stay tuned, because in Letitia's world, the only thing more elastic than her ethics is her definition of "second home."

Comey Faces the Music: Ex-FBI Boss Arraigned on Lies and Obstruction Charges

Comey has a private discussion with the Lord

In a courtroom drama that's been brewing for years, former FBI Director James Comey is stepping into the federal dock Wednesday morning, indicted for allegedly lying his way through a congressional probe and stonewalling investigators digging into the Russia hoax mess. 

Comey has said he is innocent, in spite of the words he said under oath that turned out to be false.

The once-mighty G-man turned author, 'Nature Boy,' and Trump critic, is due for his initial appearance at 10 a.m. Eastern in the Albert V. Bryan United States Courthouse, smack in the Eastern District of Virginia. Comey's wife, Patrice, and daughter Maurene were already spotted queuing up outside the building early Wednesday, a poignant snapshot of family steeling for the storm. 

Presiding over the spectacle is District Judge Michael S. Nachmanoff.

The hammer dropped in September when a federal grand jury slapped Comey with two counts: false statements in the legislative branch's wheelhouse and straight-up obstruction of a congressional proceeding.

The indictment paints Comey as the roadblock in a probe over leaking classified intel, breaching 18 USC 1505 like it was yesterday's news.

Prosecutors claim Comey fibbed big-time when he swore under oath that he never greenlit an FBI underling to play anonymous leaker. Per the paperwork, that was a whopper. Fox News Digital broke the story back in July that Comey was in the FBI's crosshairs for a criminal probe. The heat was all about whether he perjured himself during that September 30, 2020, Hill testimony on his stewardship of the FBI's original Trump-Russia witch hunt, internally dubbed "Crossfire Hurricane."

"No one is above the law," Attorney General Pam Bondi fired off on X post-indictment, underscoring that it "reflects this Department of Justice’s commitment to holding those who abuse positions of power accountable for misleading the American people. We will follow the facts in this case."

Current FBI Director Kash Patel had this to say: "previous corrupt leadership and their enablers weaponized federal law enforcement, damaging once proud institutions and severely eroding public trust."

"Every day, we continue the fight to earn that trust back, and under my leadership, this FBI will confront the problem head-on," Patel added. "Nowhere was this politicization of law enforcement more blatant than during the Russiagate hoax, a disgraceful chapter in history we continue to investigate and expose."

Patel went on: "Everyone, especially those in positions of power, will be held to account – no matter their perch."

Comey, ever the showman, responded with an Instagram video after the cuffs came calling, brushing off the charges like yesterday's briefing.

"My family and I have known for years that there are costs to standing up to Donald Trump, but we couldn't imagine ourselves living any other way," he said. "We will not live on our knees, and you shouldn't either. Somebody that I love dearly recently said that fear is the tool of a tyrant, and she's right."

"But I'm not afraid," Comey added.

"My heart is broken for the Department of Justice, but I have great confidence in the federal judicial system and I am innocent, so let’s have a trial and keep the faith," Comey said. Fox News Digital's got the exclusive on another deep-state domino: Ex-CIA chief John Brennan's sweating a criminal probe tied to the same Trump-Russia farce.

By federal clock, prosecutors had until Tuesday to drop the charges, five years from the alleged lies.

The Eastern District of Virginia's U.S. Attorney’s Office is steering the ship on this one. Flashback: The FBI kicked off its Trump-Russia obsession in July 2016 under the "Crossfire Hurricane" banner.

Trump fired Comey in May 2017, sparking the inevitable backlash.

Enter Robert Mueller days later as special counsel to inherit the FBI's fever dream probe.After a two-year taxpayer-funded odyssey, Mueller's March 2019 finale? Zilch on criminal collusion between Team Trump and Moscow meddlers in '16.

Then John Durham was assigned as special counsel to autopsy the "Crossfire Hurricane" origins. The FBI blew off a neon-red flag that they were the marks in a Clinton-orchestrated ploy to twist law enforcement for an electoral edge pre-2016.

"The aforementioned facts reflect a rather startling and inexplicable failure to adequately consider and incorporate the Clinton Plan intelligence into the FBI's investigative decision-making in the Crossfire Hurricane investigation," Durham’s report states.

"Indeed, had the FBI opened the Crossfire Hurricane investigation as an assessment and, in turn, gathered and analyzed data in concert with the information from the Clinton Plan intelligence, it is likely that the information received would have been examined, at a minimum, with a more critical eye," the report continued.

Durham hammered home: The FBI "failed to act on what should have been, when combined with other incontrovertible facts, a clear warning sign that the FBI might then be the target of an effort to manipulate or influence the law enforcement process for political purposes during the 2016 presidential election."

Years in the making, Comey's day in court feels like poetic justice; a reckoning for the Russia hoax architects who bet the house on taking down Trump, only to watch the foundations crack.
