Letitia James continues Trump-hating witch-hunt with new lawsuit

New York Attorney General Letitia James has once again taken aim at President Donald Trump, announcing imminent legal action against his administration’s recent pause on some federal funding. For those following James’ career, the move will come as no surprise. Over the years, the Democratic AG has been one of Trump’s most vocal legal adversaries.

 

The Trump administration’s recent pause on all federal grants and loans is at the center of the new legal hunt. An internal memo from the White House budget office revealed that the administration temporarily halted financial assistance to assess compliance with the president’s executive orders, including those aimed at limiting spending on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, clean energy programs, and foreign aid.
