Taxpayer Money or Political Defense

Saritha Komatireddy is blasting Letitia James over alleged misuse of taxpayer dollars, accusing the AG’s office of outsourcing $20 million in legal work to private firms—despite having 700+ lawyers on staff. She highlights $1.4 million paid to one firm for a federal probe and questions why they’re hiring expensive outside counsel, especially when they already employ a former U.S. solicitor general. James is fighting subpoenas tied to investigations into whether she targeted political groups, which Komatireddy says amounts to using public funds to defend herself. James’ camp counters by painting Komatireddy as a right-wing ally who ignores real issues, turning this into a fiery debate over fiscal responsibility and how public money is spent.
