'We will put your fat a** in prison': Letitia James gets absolutely excoriated by prominent Trump legal ally



After Donald Trump decisively beat Kamala Harris in Tuesday's presidential election, Trump-hating New York Attorney General Letitia James turned quite a few heads with a bizarre and cryptic speech vowing to "fight back" against the president-elect.

James — who campaigned for her office on the promise that she would go after Trump and sued him for hundreds of millions — spoke somberly with whispered endings to phrases, frequent dramatic pauses, and clipped, halting pronunciations of key words that seemed to reflect anger, shock, and sadness over Trump's victory.

'I dare you to try to continue your lawfare against President Trump in his second term. Because listen here, sweetheart: We’re not messing around this time.'

"We did not expect this result, but we are prepared to respond to this result," James went on to say. "And my office has been preparing for several months because we've been here before. We faced this challenge before, and we used the rule of law to fight back. And we are prepared to fight back once again, because as the attorney general of this great state, it is my job to protect and defend the rights of New Yorkers and the rule of law. And I will not shrink from that responsibility."

'Let me just say this to Big Tish James'

One prominent Trump legal ally was having none of James' tough talk — and gave it right back to her.

Attorney Mike Davis — founder of the Article III Project, which "defends constitutionalist judges and the rule of law" — absolutely excoriated James during an appearance on "The Benny Show" podcast Thursday.

"Let me just say this to Big Tish James, the New York attorney general," Davis said. "I dare you to try to continue your lawfare against President Trump in his second term. Because listen here, sweetheart: We’re not messing around this time. And we will put your fat ass in prison for conspiracy against rights, and I promise you that."

Davis also warned James to "think long and hard before you want to violate President Trump’s constitutional rights or any other American’s constitutional rights. ... It’s not gonna happen again."

Fox News said it reached out to James' office seeking a response to Davis' comments.

The cable network and other outlets characterized Davis as a possible attorney general candidate in the Trump administration, but Davis said in a Friday X post that while he "strongly" supports the president-elect, he's "not going into his administration and [is] not under consideration for Attorney General."

"As I have made crystal clear, I do not speak for President Trump or anyone else," Davis added in his post. "Like tens of millions of other private citizens, I am outraged by the lawfare and weaponization of our system of justice, including the New York Attorney General’s political crusade. All of the witch hunts have to end so our Republic can survive and prosper under the leadership of President Trump."

Anything else?

Following James' speech, Fox News legal editor Kerri Urbahn blasted James, saying it was "maybe the most distasteful speech I've ever seen a government official give after someone won the American presidency, and I think it reflects exactly how Letitia James has been this entire time."

Urbahn added that James "has done everything in her power to destroy Donald Trump. She failed. Do you know how we know she failed? Because Donald Trump won decisively last night. This lawfare campaign that we have seen waged against Trump by attorneys general, by federal and state prosecutors, and doing so by twisting the law in ways they had never done before. ... They used the law against Donald Trump in ways they've never used against anyone else in their states, in this country, and the American people spoke loud and clear last night and said, 'We're done with this.' And yet for the attorney general of the state of New York to go on and give that speech just now is disgraceful."

While the Department of Justice has moved to end federal cases against Trump before he takes office in January, state cases against him — such as the civil fraud case James brought against Trump resulting in more than $450 million in penalties against him — still hang in the balance.

'Meme Wars': Man arrested after reportedly kicking projector, shouting expletives during Benny Johnson's TPUSA college tour



An enraged man was taken into custody after he reportedly kicked a table and a video projector during a presentation from a conservative speaker who was poking fun at the humorlessness of the left.

On Tuesday night at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa, Turning Point USA contributor Benny Johnson was giving a presentation entitled "Meme Wars." Johnson has taken his presentation to college campuses across the country, trying to convince young conservatives that social media memes present a unique opportunity for the right to counter much of the cultural hegemony perpetrated by the left. In Johnson's view, "The Left Can't Meme" because people with left-leaning opinions have no sense of humor and have little understanding of the ways in which humor works in American culture.

During one particular segment of the presentation, Johnson shared a meme in which Vice President Kamala Harris walks outside and sees a bus with the words "Texas Border Patrol" written across it. Harris laughs and says, "I love it" as a stock Mexican figure gyrates to mariachi music playing in the background. The meme is meant to make people chuckle and remind them that Harris recently claimed that the U.S. southern border is "secure," even as hundreds of thousands pour over the border every month.

At least one attendee apparently didn't find the meme funny, though. An unidentified man wearing jeans, a T-shirt, and a green do-rag interrupted the presentation, shouted expletives, and began kicking the table and the projector Johnson was using. The man's tantrum was caught on video:

\u201c\ud83d\udea8BREAKING: I was Giving a speech about MEMES at the University of Iowa tonight with @TPUSA. \n\nA Kamala Harris Meme TRIGGERED the violent LIBS so bad they ATTACKED the *projector* and SMASHED IT to pieces.\n\nI told you: The Left Can\u2019t Meme\u201d
— Benny Johnson | Meme-Attack Survivor \u270a\ud83c\udffd\u270a\ud83c\udfff\u270a\ud83c\udffe\u270a\ud83c\udffb (@Benny Johnson | Meme-Attack Survivor \u270a\ud83c\udffd\u270a\ud83c\udfff\u270a\ud83c\udffe\u270a\ud83c\udffb) 1663726817

The man then stormed out of the speech, yelling, "Racist a** b****. F*** you. Swear to f***ing G*d. F***."

Johnson, who, in keeping with the humor theme has since changed his Twitter name to "Benny Johnson | Meme-Attack Survivor," has shared the video on social media with the message: "A Kamala Harris Meme TRIGGERED the violent LIBS so bad they ATTACKED the *projector* and SMASHED IT to pieces.

"I told you: The Left Can't Meme," Johnson tweeted.

A video taken shortly after the incident indicates that the man was arrested by police and taken into custody. Whether he will face any charges remains unclear.

Following the man's arrest, Johnson released another statement about the incident:

"We often say The LEFT CAN’T MEME.

"Tonight, we proved it. I was giving a peaceful speech to the University of Iowa Turning Point USA chapter about memes this evening. During our presentation we played a harmless meme of Kamala Harris welcoming a bus full of migrants, set to tasteful mariachi music. That is when a low-T leftist strung-out on pure soy snapped into a violent rage.

"I watched dispassionately as the lib’s last drop of testosterone evaporated in an unprovoked kick-attack on an innocent projector.

"That projector’s crime? Playing memes.

"Thankfully, no one was hurt by the domestic terrorist attack other than an innocent Panasonic Projector. The perpetrator was arrested soon after and booked for a hate-crime against memes. Our hearts go out to the brave Iowa City Police department. Fund The Police.

"Let this moment serve as a poignant metaphor for what happens to meme-makers across social media when their accounts get attacked.

"As someone who lived through January 6th, I can tell you this attack was much scarier and represents a larger existential threat to our Democracy. The 1st Amendment is under attack constantly from Left. It survived - this time. The Left Can’t Meme."
