Investigators and staffers of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office are "outraged" at the political weaponization of justice in seeking an indictment of former President Donald Trump, according to former NYPD Commissioner Bernie Kerik on Newsmax.

"I hear the office is in chaos, as there are a number of people that don't want this to happen, don't believe it should happen," Kerik told Saturday's "The Count."

"And keep in mind: They now work for a guy on his first day in office, Alvin Bragg on his first day in office, put out a memo that said they should stop charging people with resisting arrest — they should downgrade robberies with weapons."

While violent crime, destruction, and theft rage on the streets in New York City, Bragg has brazenly issued a memo to reduce prosecution on those criminals while he is searching for a crime to charge Trump, stretching the law in his attempt, according to Kerik.

"He's taking what is a proposed supposed misdemeanor and trying to enhance it into a felony to charge former president," Kerik told host Lidia Curanaj. "It's completely absurd, and I think the cops and the investigators that work for the Manhattan D.A.'s office, they're outraged."

Kerik's remarks echo a pair of tweets earlier Saturday, as Trump broke the news he hears he could be arrested for a trumped-up charge stemming from his hush-money payment to porn actress Stormy Daniels years ago.

So why hasn’t it been dropped? They say they will announcing trumps indictment tomorrow. People keep saying chaotic infighting …blah blah blah, and yet the wheels keep spinning and in motion. You would think the DA would’ve dropped it lickety-split when the Congress requested documents. On the contrary, he stood his ground, not like the spineless POS conservatives who always cave, …he even spat in the faces of Congress. TRUE BASKETBALLS!

Alvin Bragg wants his 15 minutes of fame must be looking for a job at CNN or MSNBC.

“with a Manhattan jury”

He’s got no guarantee of a Manhattan jury though. Trump could get the case transferred upstate probably just by showing that 90+% of the jury pool voted for his opponent. Twice.

Bragg hopes to jump up to the DC political appointment level while kicking his staff back down the ladder.

That's the Democrat way...kiss up, kick down.

You see blacks can do whatever they want because they feel entitled and hide behind the wall of racism so don’t doubt that race will also play a big part in this too.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Race is playing a HUGE part in the ongoing destruction of America, and the vast majority of citizens who are not black will, because of their own ignorance, deservedly suffer some very unpleasant consequences. Anyone who doubts that might want to do a little research regarding post-apartheid South Africa.

They are F’d and spinning their wheels. They can’t drop it yet. This Bragg is an ignorant ape who is pounding his chest. The bastard can’t handle that fact that he will be swiftly retaliated against for his corruption and stupidity for things that are far worse. I don’t believe Trump will be indicted tomorrow either. It’s all monkey shine and primal display!

New Yorkers loved Trump.....right up until he announced that he was running as a Republican. Had he run as a Dhimmicrat he would still be their golden boy instead of “Orange Man Bad”.

DA Bragg must have a large payout coming from some Democrat.

That’s exactly right. It makes no sense at all.

Leftism is a severe & violent mental disorder with an inability to grasp reality.

Bragg may have shot himself in the foot. Should be easy to see that Bragg’s election campaign has poisoned the jury pool, by running on a plank to “get Trump”.
