Attorney General Pam Bondi said Wednesday that the Department of Justice (DOJ) is “reviewing” newly discovered documents scrutinizing the residence of New York Attorney General Letitia James.

The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) has referred James to the DOJ, asserting that she misrepresented a Norfolk, Virginia property as her primary residence to secure favorable mortgage terms in 2023.

At the time, James was serving as New York’s Attorney General, a role that necessitates New York residency. James, who was born in Brooklyn and is unmarried, filed a civil fraud lawsuit against Trump and the Trump Organization in October 2023.

Additionally, discrepancies have been noted in her Brooklyn property filings, where she reportedly listed the building as a four-unit dwelling on mortgage applications, despite official records designating it as a five-unit property. ​

Asked on Fox News about the issue, Bondi told Bill Hemmer of “America’s Newsroom,” “Bill, the most I’ve learned about the case, I just learned from you. I saw it on breaking news this morning. This case was sent to us by Bill Pulte [head of the FHFA.]

“No one in my office has read it yet. Of course, we’ll be reviewing it. You just told me more than I knew about it so far.”

This is a developing news story and will be updated as more information is available.
