"And how does it feel to know that you will be in prison for mortgage fraud?"
"My question is for Tish James. Will you apologize to President Trump for wasting millions of dollars, and the state of New York, for a witch trial?" asked the man, adding, "And how does it feel to know that you will be in prison for mortgage fraud?"
His question was met with boos from the crowd and James responded, "Thank you for coming," as the man was escorted out of the event.
She added, "We want to thank him for coming, we respect all opinions. Everybody knows those allegations are baseless. They’re discredited."
This comes as the FBI has opened a criminal probe into James over allegations of mortgage fraud. Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte requested in April that the Department of Justice investigate James.
Pulte accused James of having "falsified records" to get a home loan in Virginia while she was still serving as the New York state AG. The records listed the Virginia home as her "principal residence."
The criminal referral reads in part, "Based on media reports, Ms. Letitia James has, in multiple instances, falsified bank documents and property records to acquire government backed assistance and loans and more favorable loan terms. This has potentially included 1) falsifying residence status for a Norfolk, Virginia-based home in order to secure a lower mortgage rate and 2) misrepresenting property descriptions to meet stringent requirements for government backed loans and government assistance."
In 2023, a civil case from James went to court against Trump and the Trump organization, which were found guilty of exaggerating real estate assets. Trump was ordered to pay $464 million in disgorgement and interest and a three-year ban was placed on Trump’s ability to run New York-based businesses.
