OPINION| In a move that would make even the most ardent Marxists blush, New York Attorney General Letitia James has issued a threat to the Supreme Court of the United States. Her demand? That the highest court in the land should not dare to look into the sham hush money case against former President Donald J. Trump.
James, who has made a name for herself by targeting Trump and his associates with a relentless barrage of politically motivated lawsuits, has now crossed the line into outright intimidation. Her warning to the Supreme Court is nothing short of a blatant attempt to undermine the integrity of the judicial system and to deny Trump his fundamental right to due process.
BREAKING: New York is doubling down in its quest to interfere in the 2024 presidential election and jail President Trump.
Today, Letitia James asked the Supreme Court to allow New York to continue with its lawfare.
Deplorable – and illegal.

The case in question revolves around alleged hush money payments made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. Despite the fact that the payments were made by Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen, and not by Trump himself, James has insisted on pursuing the case with a fervor that borders on obsession.
Now, as the case makes its way through the courts, James has taken it upon herself to dictate to the Supreme Court what it should and should not do. In a filing with the court, she argued that a ruling in Trump’s favor would “seriously undermine the integrity of the courts and risks setting a dangerous precedent.”

This is nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to intimidate the Supreme Court into ruling in her favor. James knows full well that the case against Trump is weak, and she is desperate to prevent the court from examining the facts and reaching an impartial conclusion.
But the Supreme Court is not a political tool to be wielded by the likes of Letitia James. It is the highest court in the land, charged with upholding the Constitution and ensuring that justice is served. James’s attempt to intimidate the court is not only disgraceful, but it is also a direct assault on the rule of law.
Trump supporters, and indeed all Americans who believe in the importance of a fair and impartial judicial system, should be outraged by James’s actions. This is not about whether you support Trump or not. It is about the fundamental principles of justice and the rule of law that are the bedrock of our democracy.
James’s threat to the Supreme Court is a clear indication of the lengths to which the left will go to silence their political opponents. They will stop at nothing to destroy Trump and anyone who dares to support him. This is not the America that we know and love. This is a country where political enemies are targeted and persecuted, and where the rule of law is trampled upon in the name of power and control.
It is time for all Americans to stand up and say “enough.” We cannot allow the likes of Letitia James to undermine the integrity of our judicial system and to deny Trump his right to a fair trial. We must demand that the Supreme Court do its job and examine the facts of the case without fear or favor.
The future of our democracy depends on it.
