New York Attorney General Letitia James threatened to fight back President-elect Donald Trump using the rule of law and said her office was preparing for months to counter Trump's coming to power. Donald Trump's ally
Mike Davis
who may become a White House counsel has now given an open threat to James and said the Trump administration will put her "fat a**" in prison for conspiracy against rights.
In a Benny Johnson podcast, he said, "I dare you to try to continue your lawfare against President Trump in his second term...Listen here, sweetheart, we're not messing around this time and we will put your fat a** in prison for conspiracy against rights."
Davis adviced James to "think long and hard" before potentially violating the president-elect's "constitutional rights or any other Americans' constitutional rights."
James ordered Trump to pay a $454 million bond payment earlier this year as part of a civil fraud case and accused Trump of overinflating the value of his assets to get better loans. Trump later appealed the ruling. After his electoral victory Tuesday, James and New York Gov Kathy Hochul vowed to fight back against any potential "retribution" coming their way.
James addressed a press conference Wednesday and assured New Yorkers that her department studied the plans of the GOP administration under Trump and is prepared to legally fight for any contingencies. "This is not the time to be fearful, New York. But faithful. And steadfast. Knowing that I as the attorney general, along with my entire team, we are guardians of the law. And we are prepared, my friends, to fight back," James said.
'Drag Democrats' dead political bodies and burn'
Mike Davis shared a violent post on November 6 in which he said his mood was to drag Democrats' dead political bodies through the streets and burn them and then throw them off the wall. Trump has privately floated Davis’s name for Attorney General, according to the Washington Post, and publicly praised Davis in October when he touted him for a top job in his second administration.
Mike Davis, however, said he does not want to be White House counsel and 'want to serve as the Viceroy'.
