After pressure from President Donald Trump, federal prosecutors secured an indictment of Attorney General Letitia James. She’s the latest of Trump’s adversaries to be prosecuted. WAMC’s Andrew Waite and Jimmy Vielkind, of the New York Public News Network, break down the case, its implications and everything else in New York politics.

Andrew Waite has worked as The Daily Gazette’s featured news columnist, an editor at Alaska Airlines magazine, and in community newspapers in Montana and Alaska. He is a graduate of Albany High School and Boston University’s journalism school, and he returned to the Capital Region with his wife, daughter and son in 2021.
