Incoming NY State AG admits her plan to find a crime by Trump or ‘anyone in his orbit’

Another Democrat has revealed her totalitarian impulse under the malign influence of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Letitia James, who will take office as attorney general of the State of New York, has just admitted to the friendly folks at NBC News that she is channeling Lavrenty Beria, Stalin’s notorious secret police head, who famously said, “Show me the man and I’ll find you the crime.”

"I think within the first 100 days this bill will be passed," she said, adding, "It is a priority because I have concerns with respect to the possibility that this administration might pardon some individuals who might face some criminal charges, but I do not want them to be immune from state charges."

NY needs a Beria?

[fwdude]

This is the very DEFINITION of a ‘witch hunt.’

If that is the new standard, then Trump should throw the full weight of the Federal government law enforcement agencies into “finding a crime” that this incoming NY AG committed.

They want to play, we should play.

It’s unusual for a “hitman” to publicly announce their target.

[mewzilla]

Meanwhile, public corruption in the state of NY, from the local level to the state, runs amok. With Albany’s knowledge and blessing.

Isn’t that illegal? Let alone unconstitutional?

Every warrant she demands should be denied under the 4th amendment because of these statements.

If Trunp can’t have executive orders because they might be raciss because he said something on the trail than that same rationale applies to her!

[freedumb2003]

I think I read where she wants to pass laws and then use them against President Trump.

Typical liberal doesn’t even understand the basics of the Bill of Rights.

Mmmmmmm........Titcia ‘s becoming the “pussy whip” for NY.

Democrats hear “whippings” and they go ballistic.

Gonna be lots of eager Democrats lining up to feel pussy Titcia’s lash.

[Maris Crane]

Is this considered a threat?

Sounds like it to me.

[JBW1949]

So NY’ers elect someone who admits that they care nothing about crime in MY, only trying to pin something on the President of the United States????

Way to go, NY, you friggin’ idiots!!!!!!

[cyclotic]

Wow, she and Brian Frosh Ag of Maryland are about to become best friends.

He’s engaged in complete scumbaggery in his everlasting crusade to sue Donald Trump for every breath of air he draws.

The mental midgets in the state assembly gave him unfettered authority to engage and sue the Trump Administration without any state or Governor oversight.

"This is the very DEFINITION of a ‘witch hunt.’"

Ironically, led by a vindictive witch.

British kings were notorious for hiring Royal solicitors to go hunting for crimes against any who dared to opposed the Crown. That may have been the reason our Founding Fathers tried to make certain our Constitution prohibited this kind of tyranny.

Amendment 4 - Search and Seizure. Ratified 12/15/1791.

“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”

In other words, fishing expeditions are UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

Such actions constitute sedition when the intent is to overthrow the duly-elected government.

So lock that evil NY AG up and throw away the key!

Obama’s corruption operated openly without fear of prosecution or even criticism from the media. That’s what makes me so angry when I hear about Democrats who obsess about “getting “ the president. Maybe it’s how we should have reacted to Obama.

[slumber1]

This is the very DEFINITION of a ‘witch hunt.’

No, this is the very definition of tyranny

[fwdude]

Yep, and tyranny uses witch hunts extensively.

[ealgeone]

We are definitely heading toward CW II....and it won’t be a friendly parting of the ways either.

[American in Israel]

Once long ago when America was free police needed crime to prosecute.

[Mears]

Just another angry black woman-———what else is new?
