New York Attorney General Letitia James and her spending habits have been making headlines once again! Since 2023, James has emptied almost a quarter of a million dollars on various luxuries like lodging, travel, and fancy meals. And get this – she’s not even up for reelection until 2026! Talk about splurging early!
Now, we all know Letitia James made a big name for herself by taking down former President Trump in court. But while she was busy doing that, her campaign, James for NY 2026, was living it up on the high life. Thousands of dollars were dropped at posh hotels, restaurants, and even a night club! Looks like someone’s campaign cash was burning a hole in their pocket.

And let’s not forget the hefty payments to campaign consultants. Over $218,000 went out between March and December 2023. Now, James was just reelected in 2022, so why the rush to spend all that dough? Maybe she’s trying to butter up those consultants for the next go-round.
But wait, there’s more! James’ campaign also took a little vacation to Puerto Rico after her election victory. They spent over $13,500 at hotels and restaurants there. Clearly, the campaign needed a break after all that hard work of, well, being in office for not even a year!
And let’s not overlook the fancy flights, lavish restaurants, and high-class lounges James’ campaign treated themselves to. A cocktail lounge in New York City for over $5,000? Must’ve been some pretty pricey drinks in there!
It seems like New York Attorney General Letitia James has quite the taste for the finer things in life – all paid for by campaign funds, of course. But hey, who needs frugality when you’ve got a campaign war chest to burn through, right? It’s just another day in the world of politics, where the expenses are high and the accountability is… well, let’s just say it’s a bit murky. Let’s hope James’ campaign finance filings get a little more scrutiny next time!
