You’d assume the job of a state lawyer basic is to seek out dangerous guys, or at the least assist different law-enforcement nab them, however simply strive telling that to New York AG Letitia James — who’s now busy concentrating on good guys, i.e, native law-enforcement officers who (heaven forfend!) even assume about serving to the feds detain unlawful immigrants.
As The Put up solely reported, James has demanded that Oswego County’s Sheriff’s Workplace hand over paperwork which will present cooperation with federal businesses similar to ICE and Homeland Safety.
This follows her related bullying of Nassau County’s Sheriff’s Workplace within the wake of reviews that it has the nerve to assist the feds implement immigration regulation.
Sources say she’s more likely to goal extra counties.
To James, it appears, aiding immigration enforcement is the crime of the century, so she’ll use all her energy to cease it.
Please. Doesn’t her workplace have something higher to do?
Sure, we all know: New York’s wacko statutes and government orders by Govs. Andrew Cuomo and Kathy Hochul purport to limit native cops’ efforts to assist federal brokers implement immigration regulation.
But absolutely there’s sufficient different work for her employees to concentrate on.
Crime statewide, for starters, rose 31% from 2019 to 2023, and 46% within the metropolis. The place’s James & Co. been?
In addition to, 80% of New Yorkers need the feds as well unlawful migrants who’ve been convicted of crimes, a Siena ballot discovered.
Then once more, James additionally used her workplace to conflict on President Donald Trump — and anybody who does his bidding — for years; hardly ever a day goes by with out her taking some authorized motion towards him or his workforce.
Simply final week, she sued Trump for transferring to overturn California’s EV mandates; the day earlier than, for deploying the Nationwide Guard in Los Angeles.
To not point out her try and bankrupt Trump to maintain him from working in 2024.
In fact, James spent her years as NYC’s public advocate submitting countless Hail-Mary lawsuits, too; none of it did a lot for normal New Yorkers, but it surely raised her profile sufficient to let her seize the AG job after scandal pressured out Eric Schneiderman.
However, sorry: Countless pandering to the Democratic Get together’s left-wing base isn’t a severe statewide winner even in New York; the press corps (most of which is half of that base) might eat it up, however most voters gained’t.
They nonetheless assume public servants are purported to . . . serve the general public.
