Letitia James is the Attorney-General of New York State. She is also a partisan Democratic Party hack. She used the power of her office to pursue an unprecedented civil action against Donald Trump alleging that he had inflated his net worth to get more favorable loan terms in commercial transactions.

Normally I would disagree with the firefighters and Mr. Nikoui for disrupting the decorum of a solemn proceeding. But not under present circumstances, when our nation is in extremis (at the hands of those speaking).
Also, again we must note the differential in treatment between (most recently) Hamas supporters occupying part of a House office building, and the streets of the motorcade route to the Capitol for the SOTU speech, and "our" folks.
Collectivists / Communists don't prosecute their cadres, but coddle them. Persecution is for everyone else.
Interestingly, I was just reading in Nehemiah this morning, and we can see a similar scenario. Nehemiah was finishing building the wall in Jerusalem, and their enemies assumed it was because they were planning to rebel (this was the period after they had been released from exile in Babylon after 70 years in captivity).
Their enemies started putting out idle threats to intimidate them. Nehemiah, at that point the appointed governor, had no intentions to rebel. But he was not intimidated, and knew that he had to stand firm, as a real leader should, so that his people wouldn't become frightened and discouraged, and give up the work they had started. Letticia James is no different than Shemaiah, the prophet whom Sanballet paid to go intimidate Nehemiah. These hacks are being paid for the same reason. The bottom line is that the law is unequivocally on our side, and we should never back down. As intimidating as is a $354 million fine, it is patently illegal, as is the election interference that is clearly is as well. Nehemiah and his people completed the rebuilding the wall, in an incredible 52 days, their enemies lost their confidence because it was clear that God was helping them, and on their side. Nothing mentioned about a supernatural intervention here. But the people were empowered with amazing faith and determination, and they intimidated the intimidators into leaving them alone.
That is the kind of resolve we must start exercising. Every ounce of law, truth, and justice is on our side, and these people are committing egregious crimes, and it needs to stop.
What I want to know is, where are the Nehemiah's when we need them, who will stand firm and not be intimidated? My biggest concern right now is that we wasted so much of Trump's first term because no one fought for him, while he was continually under attack, and now we are seeing the same thing happen. It is almost as if everyone is just hoping he doesn't get thrown in prison, or have the election stolen from him, so he can fix this. Where are the cowards in congress and senate? Where is SCOTUS? There is clearly nothing even remotely legal about what is going on here, and yet nothing is being done, as usual. I am so sick and tired of these legislators grandstanding, using their disapproval to garner votes, but never doing squat to fight back. Until that happens, all I can assume is that they are really not on our side.
Is it going to have to come down to WTP? It certainly is beginning to look that way.
From Nehemiah 6:
6 Now when it was reported to Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem the Arab, and to the rest of our enemies that I had rebuilt the wall, and that no breach was left in it, although at that time I had not installed the doors in the gates, 2 Sanballat and Geshem sent a message to me, saying, “Come, let’s meet together [a]at Chephirim in the plain of Ono.” But they were plotting to [b]harm me. 3 So I sent messengers to them, saying, “I am doing a great work and am unable to come down. Why should the work stop while I leave it and come down to you?” 4 Then they sent messages to me four times worded in this way, and I answered them with the same wording. 5 Then Sanballat sent his servant to me in the same way a fifth time with an open letter in his hand. 6 In it was written: “It is reported among the nations, and [c]Gashmu says, that you and the Jews intend to rebel; for that reason you are rebuilding the wall. And you are to be their king, according to these reports. 7 You have also appointed prophets to proclaim in Jerusalem concerning [d]you, ‘A king is in Judah!’ And now it will be reported to the king according to these reports. So come now, let’s consult together.” 8 Then I sent a message to him saying, “Nothing like these things that you are saying has been done, but you are inventing them [e]in your own mind.” 9 For all of them were trying to frighten us, [f]thinking, “[g]They will become discouraged with the work and it will not be done.” But now, God, strengthen my hands.
10 When I entered the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah, son of Mehetabel, who was confined at home, he said, “Let’s meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let’s close the doors of the temple, for they are coming to kill you, and they are coming to kill you at night.” 11 But I said, “Should a man like me flee? And who is there like me who would go into the temple [h]to save his own life? I will not go in.” 12 Then I realized [i]that God certainly had not sent him, but he uttered his prophecy against me because Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him. 13 He was hired for this reason, that I would become frightened and act accordingly and sin, so that they might have an evil report in order that they could taunt me. 14 Remember, my God, Tobiah and Sanballat in accordance with these works of theirs, and also Noadiah the prophetess and the rest of the prophets, who were trying to frighten me.
The Wall Is Finished
15 So the wall was completed on the twenty-fifth of the month Elul, in fifty-two days. 16 When all our enemies heard about it, and all the nations surrounding us saw it, they [j]lost their confidence; for they realized that this work had been accomplished [k]with the help of our God.

Thank you for your thoughtful and common sense analysis. As always.

Is there any further evidence required to prove we have entered the third world dictatorship class?
Returning back to our constitutional Republic will be bloody, if at all.
