New York Attorney General Letitia James was slammed on social media for allegedly spending thousands on private jet trips and a Martha’s Vineyard vacation. Sources say she paid approximately $30,000 in fines for misappropriating campaign cash due to her extravagant spending.
Letitia James has always been contentious, but she catapulted to national fame for her long history of battle with President Donald Trump, including her civil court attempt to ruin him financially. She has threatened the president with legal action and angered his followers with her politically biased utterances since the 2024 election.
On March 24, 2025, X exposed Letitia James’ reckless expenditures. The post said, “Hello @NewYorkStateAG Letitia James— Can you clarify since you’re so concerned with taxpayer spending? INVESTIGATION: NY Attorney General Letitia James charged taxpayers $41,807 for private jet trips, and public records raise severe concerns.
Continuing, the piece detailed James’ strange private flights. The post stated, “Over 13 months: $41K in flights without contracts, manifests, or justification.” NO other NY State agency uses this vendor Flight dates coincide with campaign events
Despite not filing reimbursements, her campaign paid the same vendor. Payment dates, amounts, and seemingly related events are below.
Conservatives raged over the obvious bribery in the comments. “Why hasn’t @KathyHochulncompelledn @TishJamesnto honor a FOIA request?” asked other prominent New York Democrats to decry the wrongdoing. Tish’s not above the law. Will @andrewcuomo help fans get Tish James to honor FOIAs? She believes the legislation applies primarily to minorities, opponents, and @GOP members.”
Users criticized the woke AG for her corruption in response to the article. One comment read, “Hey @NewYorkStateAG, Lady, you should consider a lower profile.” Another response challenged the New York Democrat, “Why are you abusing the taxpayers charging NY for private jet travel?”
One commenter criticized Letitia James for her selfishness in a lengthy reply. Someone commented, “And the money you misusing is harming more Americans. Say it all you want. Explain your personal use of taxpayer funds. Your pointing in the wrong direction won’t stop you from abusing your duty. The conduct is familiar.”
