Rambling loudly in a berserk speech given during a civil rights event hosted by Rev. Al Sharpton, woke New York Attorney General Letitia James went berserk over President Donald Trump’s moves against her and DEI, claiming that he is eroding the foundations of democracy in America with his recent efforts.
As background, NY AG James’s berserk speech at the National Action Network event on Friday, April 4, came in the context of a legal campaign launched against her by President Trump’s attorney general, Pam Bondi, who has filed suit in what critics see as revenge on NY AG James for her lawfare campaign against Trump.
In any case, during the speech, in which NY AG James first invoked Martin Luther King Jr. to attack Trump, saying, “It’s that stone of hope that gives me a fire in my belly each and every morning.” Continuing, she obliquely referenced President Trump’s legal campaign against her and said, “It’s that stone of hope that allows me to wake up and to stand to Donald Trump and to say, Donald Trump, I’m not afraid of you.”
Building on that, the woke New York AG vowed to continue waging legal war against president, saying “I am not going to disgrace [my ancestors] and disappoint them. I am going to use the law both as a sword and as a shield and challenge Donald Trump… because he represents to me sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.”
Further, the NY AG yelled while trying to defend Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies, which President Trump and DOGE have also attacked. She did so by practically shouting at the crowd about DEI, saying, “DEI is about paid parental leave. DEI is about disabled children. Let them know that they’re not only coming after us, but they’re coming after all of us.”
Still not done, the NY AG, known for using lawfare against conservatives, continued shouting about how she’s not afraid of President Trump, declaring, “Faith, and fear can never share the same space. I’m covered by the blood, and I’m not afraid of Donald Trump! You can come after me, but no enemy, nothing formed against me will perish!” Watch her here:

NY AG James also posted about the speech, event, and matter on Bluesky, the leftist alternative to Elon’s X. Doing so, she captioned pictures of herself at the event by saying, “Attorneys General are fighting back against the Trump administration, and we’re doing it together. Thank you Rev. Al Sharpton for having us at this year’s National Action Network convention.”
James also spoke at the segment NAN event on Thursday, April 3, declaring in her similarly berserk rant on that day that she would be coming for President Trump alongside far-left Hakeem Jeffries. She said, “I’m not afraid of no president. Donald Trump, we’re ready for you, we’re coming for you… and I’m not waiting four years, I’m waiting two, for a speaker by the name of Hakeem Jeffries!” She added, “We’ve saved this democracy before, we’ll save it now!“ Watch her here:
