In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities.

Frivolous, like 99% of the charges brought by the Trump DOJ. I look at an indictment by this DOJ as an indication of sterling character and honesty.
She was indicted by a federal grand jury in Virginia.

People with ‘sterling character’ don’t lie on mortgage applications.

Had it been the other way around and Trump was being indicted,democrats wouldn't think it would be frivolous then.

Wasn't it Latitia James who went after Trump for what she called a financial fraud which turned out to be more of a paperwork error? Maybe she'll end up having to pay out the $100,000,000 she tried to get from him. That would be a fitting end to a woman who made it her campaign theme to go after Trump. It would be a lot like Haman going after Mordecai in the book of Esther, and then suffering the fate she intended for him.

Mkay. Let's not get ahead of ourselves though - the government still has to prove that she did, in fact, lie. At this point, all they've done is assert it.

The lie and mortgage fraud is in the forms she herself filled out.

Cool. Let's see 'em, and let a jury decide.

-- A2SG, but let's not forget that, exactly like Trump, she's innocent until proven guilty....

Oh, is that what you are calling two wrongs make a right these days, poetic justice.

She was wrong for how she specifically campaigned and what she essentially promised to seek to accomplish regarding Trump. But her wrong doesn’t absolve Trump of prosecution by revenge, vindictiveness, and possibly lawfare. Your look away from Trump’s malfeasance to Letitia’s is a common distraction technique which doesn’t address the impropriety of Trump’s conduct.

Wasn't it Latitia James who went after Trump for what she called a financial fraud which turned out to be more of a paperwork error?

Factually no. When your characterizations are not harmonious with the facts, in this context, any pretense of objectively scrutinizing the facts eviscerates leaving no doubt your proclivities for Trump.

No, "it" turned out to be a guilty verdict for fraud, not just a paperwork error.

Ironically, the case against James may actually turn out to be nothing more than that, but we'll have to see what happens when, or if, this ever goes to trial.

Maybe she'll end up having to pay out the $100,000,000 she tried to get from him. That would be a fitting end to a woman who made it her campaign theme to go after Trump. It would be a lot like Haman going after Mordecai in the book of Esther, and then suffering the fate she intended for him.
Yeah, imagine a prosecutor running for office on the pledge of going after criminals!

-- A2SG, throw the book at her already....

So what? Whether the indictment is or isn’t frivolous is not determined by asserting Democrats wouldn’t perceive the indictment as frivolous if it were Trump that was indicated. At most all you’ve shown is Republicans and Democrats are rather crappy at objectivity in this context, leaving the question of whether this indictment is frivolous for the other adults in the room to discuss.

The charges were brought by the DOJ. A Grand Jury of her peers brought the indictment.

What are you talking about? Since when is a grand jury ever been known to constitute as a “jury” of the Target’s peers? On what planet?

A “jury of” their peers is in reference to a formal court proceeding involving a jury that will decide guilt/innocence/fault/liabiltiy/ in which the venire panel is subjected to questioning by the defendant for purposes of discovering biases, prejudices, favoritism, lack of partiality, can be fair, consider the evidence objectively, revealing people favorable, unfavorable, or neutral in towards the defendant and facts of the case.

That is NOT what transpires in a grand jury.

I’ve presented to grand juries before.
The statement a prosecutor can obtain an indictment for a ham sandwich is extraordinarily accurate! At a GJ defense attorney is not present to reveal to the jury exculpatory evidence or evidence detrimental to the government’s case and the government isn’t obligated to do so in a GJ, and the prosecutor can and would withhold damaging evidence from a GJ if the goal is to obtain an indictment and almost guarantee an indictment by withhold that evidence.

Conversely, when I do not want the GJ to indict for various reasons, I provide all the damning evidence to the government’s case and may strongly hint to the GJ not to indict if they think I couldn’t obtain a guilty verdict at trial.

The Comey and Letitia indictments have led to an unexpected phenomenon, considerable numbers of MAGA, Trump supporters, and Republicans, have illuminated their knowledge of the GJ process is anemic and inaccurate, as they hastily rush to defend the veracity of GJ indictments that are very easily attainable for prosecutors.
