New York’s top cop turned biblical during a rant against President Donald Trump that appeared to claim a divine mandate to her lawfare.
“…I’m covered by the blood.”
Despite the left’s war against Christianity in favor of their secular faith, kneeling before the state, mouthpieces within their movement have often demonstrated a willingness to use the Bible as a bludgeon, justifying their means by their ends. Such an example came to pass Friday when New York Attorney General Letitia James paraphrased the book of Isaiah in a preaching rant against the president.
Joining a panel of fellow Democratic Party AGs at Rev. Al Sharpton’s National Action Network Convention Friday in New York, James was railing against the “illegal executive orders” from the president when she invoked the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and asserted God’s protection for her efforts.
“Listen, faith and fear can never share the same space. And so 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!” she asserted, incorrectly paraphrasing Isaiah before Sharpton turned to Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford and said, “And you thought you could preach.”

Elsewhere in her rant that invoked Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., James had said of Trump, “…he represents to me sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity,” before defending diversity, equity and inclusion policies by claiming, “DEI is about paid parental leave. DEI is about disabled children,” despite the well-documented divisiveness of the Marxist ideology framing DEI.
In one example of the righteous crusade that the attorney general believed she was on against the commander-in-chief, James had joined 18 other state attorneys general in a lawsuit against Trump’s election integrity executive order that sought to require proof of citizenship to register to vote.
“The Elections EO violates the Constitution,” claimed the AGs in their suit filed a day before the panel with Sharpton. “It interferes with States’ inherent sovereignty and their constitutional power to regulate the time, place, and manner of federal elections.”
They went on to claim, “It also usurps Congress’s powers to legislate (under the Elections Clause) and to appropriate (under the Spending Clause) because Congress has not chosen to implement the changes the President seeks to impose by decree.”
“The critical funds at issue have in large measure already been appropriated by Congress,” added the suit.
During the lawfare that had been aimed at Trump prior to his successful 2024 presidential campaign, the president had reminded that during James’ own campaign for attorney general she had “even assured her supporters in an Election promise that, ‘we’re going to definitely sue him. We’re going to be a real pain in the a**. He’s going to know my name personally,” a point the GOP leader’s son Eric Trump had backed by sharing a video reminding “everyone exactly who this evil woman is.”
While some reactions tore into the attorney general for butchering the quote from the Bible, as she had inadvertently vowed her opponents would not “perish” rather than not “prosper,” others cautioned her against invoking God to defend her actions.
“Nothing formed against me will perish”
So everything formed against her will thrive and succeed?

She mixed up her Bible verse there a bit. Isaiah 54:17- no weapon formed against thee shall prosper….
The way she said it is basically the Trump admin is going to win against her, which I tend to agree.

When you try and quote scripture and then misquote it. (Perish?)….It’s ‘prosper’. Just the absolute POSTER CHILD of DEI.

She’s using the Lord now to defend her lawfare? Wouldn’t do that if I were here. The Lord may have something to say about that.
