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.

He could care less, this is all about getting Trump, he doesn’t care if the case has any merit, he knows with a Manhattan jury they will convict Trump in two seconds

That’s the way it *should* be but I’d bet everything I own that it’s not true.First,95% of the nation’s lawyers are Rats and,second,it’s New York City.

They are looking ahead. They know that many powerful Dems and RINOs are on various lists (*cough*epstein) and evidence exists of much more severe violations (emails, etc) Hunter, etc. They will magnanimously decide NOT to prosecute Trump, so that when their time finally comes around they can claim to be above such petty vindictiveness.

Old news, this has been reported since the news broke. It’s all the farce to keep the heat off the DA while behind doors by Wednesday they will have a ruling. Don’t be deceived. These people are evil and whatever it takes they’re going to get Trump… unfortunately nothing can stop them nothing. Not even our own majority congresspeople who have forcefully requested documents from this POS. And he spat on their faces. 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.

More hair on fire clickbait hyperbole nonsense. Both sides do it. It’s like when the cat paws at the mouse for fun and games, and we’re the mouse. But it never ends.

I don’t understand New Yorkers hatred of Trump. He made huge improvements to the city. It can’t be his demeanor...lots of New Yorkers act the same way. They ought to hate the ones who have unleashed horrible taxes and criminals on them and how about AOC who drove Amazon and all their nice jobs outta there.

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