Jarrett said James is now facing the same standards she once used against others, arguing that her own conduct left little room for defense.

"Fox News legal analyst Gregg Jarrett explained Thursday how Democrat Attorney General of New York Letitia James incriminated herself.
"A federal grand jury in Virginia handed down charges against James on Thursday after prosecutors led by Interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan brought the case forward. Appearing on “Hannity,” Jarrett said James effectively trapped herself in her own legal standards. This, after reports indicated she falsely listed her Virginia property as her primary residence to qualify for better mortgage rates while holding office.
“ 'It is not a defense if the charges are justified, as I think they may be. She’ll also claim, of course, ‘Oh, it’s a big misunderstanding, paperwork snafu, somebody else is to blame.’ But under her own stated standard in the Trump case, she declared that is never an excuse. So she’s hoisted on her own petard, as Shakespeare would say in Hamlet,” Jarrett told host Sean Hannity.
Jarrett said that the case against James rests squarely on the paperwork she personally executed.
WATCH:
“It’s a pretty serious case against her, Sean. You cannot claim an occupied residence, get a lower mortgage rate, and then rent it out. You’re cheating the lender by lying, and James actually incriminated herself. Both her mortgage and her insurance documents said she occupied it, but on an IRS records form she admitted it was purely a rental with zero personal occupancy,” Jarrett said. . . .
‘Worst Possible Poster Child’: Scott Jennings Reminds CNN Panel Letitia James Ran On Targeting Trump
“Look, I mean, Letitia James is the absolute worst possible poster child for the argument of selective prosecution. Her entire political career has been on the idea of selectively prosecuting one person, Donald J. Trump,” Jennings said.
