Make no mistake - the Democrats are using their stolen power to turn America into a one-party 3rd world Marxist state ruled by brutal fascist Democrat party dictators who will crush any and all opposition to their evil regime.
N.Y. Dems accused of weaponizing courts against many political foes -- not just Donald Trump - Washington Times 3-25-24
N.Y. Dems accused of weaponizing courts against many political foes — not just Trump
New York Republicans say Attorney General Letitia James’ vendetta against former President Donald Trump is the latest proof that Democrats have turned the state’s courts into a political retribution machine.
They say business owners in New York City and across the state must acquiesce to Democrats’ political agendas and cooperate with the party’s incumbents who control the levers of government. ...
“This is a real serious issue. Why would you ever want to do business in New York state? What if they didn’t like the business you’re in?” said Rep. Claudia Tenney, New York Republican.
“Say you’re producing propane for people in upstate New York and they decide they didn’t like you. Are they going to prosecute you and put up a bond that you can’t pay and run you out of business?” ...
“[The Democrats] control all the levers of government. They control the permits and the agencies and all that,” he said. “And unlike some other places where they’ll give to both sides, in New York, they’re afraid to do that. ...
Critics say beef producer JBS and the National Rifle Association are examples of organizations put through the legal wringer in New York for political reasons.
In February, Ms. James filed a lawsuit against JBS, the world’s largest beef producer, for making “fraudulent and illegal” marketing claims about its climate change efforts.
The lawsuit says the company made fraudulent claims about achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040.
The beef giant’s business is out of step with the left-wing agenda, and its political action committee overwhelmingly favors Republican candidates.
Former New York Lt. Gov. Betsy McCaughey recently wrote in an opinion article that the JBS lawsuit is another example where Ms. James uses the state’s “legal apparatus to punish individuals and industries unpopular with the left.”
“Half the world’s 2,000 largest publicly listed corporations state that they aspire to be net zero by 2040, but very few have concrete plans on how to get there,” said Ms. McCaughey, a Republican.
In 2020, Ms. James sought to dissolve the NRA, which is despised by the left. Her effort failed when New York Supreme Court Justice Joel M. Cohen ruled in 2022 that the allegations of fraud and misappropriation of funds did not warrant a “corporate death penalty.” ...
In an amicus brief, 16 Republican attorneys general said Ms. James’ attempt to dissolve the NRA revealed that her lawsuit was not about protecting NRA members but crushing their First Amendment rights.
“Supposedly to protect the NRA’s members, the New York AG seeks to kill the NRA. It is difficult to fathom how it would serve those members’ interests to disband the advocate they support. Dissolving the NRA would leave its members with less of a voice,” the attorneys general wrote.
“The New York AG campaigned for office on a platform of taking down the NRA by any means possible. And both her campaign rhetoric and statements since taking office leave little doubt that she has targeted the NRA because she disagrees with its political speech and zealous defense of the Second Amendment.”
Before she was elected attorney general, Ms. James campaigned on prosecuting Mr. Trump. She called him an “illegitimate president” who should be “indicted for criminal offenses” and “charged with obstructing justice.”
During Mr. Trump’s trial, she said, “I will be shining a bright light into every dark corner of his real estate dealings and every dealing demanding truthfulness at every turn.” ...
Democrats are using racist black women to crush their enemies because they have found that they can get away with falsely accusing Americans who object to their clear violations of civil rights and constitution protections of being racists.
