Letitia James Begs Supporters For Maximum Donations After Criminal Referral

New York Attorney General Letitia James is asking supporters to shell out massive donations just days after the Trump Administration accused her of committing mortgage fraud with multiple properties she owns. The alleged criminal conduct has resulted in a criminal referral to the Department of Justice and could very well result in criminal charges.

James has scheduled a swanky fundraising event this upcoming Tuesday, with entry level donation tickets starting at $500. The maximum contributions are going for an astonishing $18,000, the maximum allowed by New York law, according to a report from the New York Post.

The official invite for the event — which has been billed as a fundraiser in support of James’ re-election bid in 2026 —  features a photo of the embattled attorney general alongside a gay pride flag.

It is set to be hosted at the home of left-wing activists Rod Grozier and Rob Smith, the latter of whom is the CEO and founder of gender-neutral clothing company “The Phluid Project.”

“Letitia James is fighting for our rights every single day. This is our opportunity to show Letitia that we have her back,” the event page on left-wing fundraising arm Act Blue reads.

The high-dollar fundraiser comes just days after a Trump Administration official filed a criminal referral against James in a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.

James is accused of listing a Virginia property she purchased in 2023 as her “principal residence” despite serving as attorney general of New York at the time. New York requires its attorneys general to live in the state for five years before running for office, and requires them to reside there during their tenure, the New York Post noted.

A document involving power of attorney for the Virginia purchase, which was reviewed by the outlet, was signed by James and appears to validate the allegation made by Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Director William Pulte. “I intend to occupy this property as my principal residence,” the post reads.

The letter further revealed that James previously purchased a Brooklyn home in 2001, but has “consistently misrepresented the same property as only having four units in both building permit applications and numerous mortgage documents and applications,” Pulte noted. This could have allowed James to receive a lower mortgage rate and led to lower payments under the federal Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP).

“Ms. James, for both properties listed above, appears to have falsified records in order to meet certain lending requirements and receive favorable loan terms,” Pulte wrote.

The alleged criminal act occurred just weeks before James began her civil fraud trial against the Trump Administration, which was accused of undervaluing a number of properties, resulting in a $454 million judgement.
