Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s paralegal testified on Friday that his office deleted from their evidence three pages of phone records between convicted liar Michael Cohen and Stormy Daniels’ lawyer Keith Davidson without notifying former President Donald Trump’s legal team, according to reports.
Trump attorney Emil Bove questioned paralegal Jaden Jarmel-Schneider on Friday about three pages of 2018 phone records between Davidson and Cohen that Bragg’s office had deleted, according to CNN. Additional phone records between Daniels manager Gina Rodriguez and then-National Enquirer editor Dylan Howard regarding Daniels’ claim about her alleged affair were also deleted, according to The Epoch Times.
The altered call records were submitted into evidence, but Bragg’s office did not tell Trump’s team that three pages were missing, The Epoch Times reported.
Tampering with evidence is a class E felony in the Empire State under New York Consolidation Laws, Penal Law § 215.40, which states in part:
A person is guilty of tampering with physical evidence when: Believing that certain physical evidence is about to be produced or used in an official proceeding or a prospective official proceeding, and intending to prevent such production or use, he suppresses it by any act of concealment, alteration or destruction, or by employing force, intimidation or deception against any person.
Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., took to X on Friday calling the developments “insanity.”
“How on earth is this not a felony committed by Bragg and his minions? It sure would be if team Trump did it,” Trump Jr. posted to X.

That is a smokescreen that has been put out there for decades.
The heart of a Democrat is not compassionate.
The heart of a Democrat is criminal.
They want stolen money.
I think they know if even one of them holds out for acquittal, he or she will be doxxed, hounded, likely lose their job, and have their home picketed and their life threatened, and possibly even be assaulted by a nutcase. The people who are on this jury WANTED to be on this jury and for only one reason: To screw Trump, and they expect to be praised as heroes. The same dynamic played out in the trial of Derek Chauvin.
What if Trump told his rally yesterday in New Jersey to find the jurors and make their lives miserable and hound them if they find him guilty? He would be in Rikers for jury tampering, and rightly so. But that’s exactly the implied threat if they find him innocent and they know it.
“That is a smokescreen that has been put out there for decades.
The heart of a Democrat is not compassionate.
The heart of a Democrat is criminal.
They want stolen money.”
Of course. The communists always use mush-brained youths to fool into believing that they are the compassionate ones... they’re the only ones that “care”... and they’re the ones working for the good, while everyone else is on the evil side. And all while they squander, use and mis-use “other people’s money” without their consent. Which is... by any logical definition... stealing.
Incompetent, stupid and corrupt is no way to go through life
Fanny and Alvin common denominator? Black mindset. Thinking they’re doing what has been done to them.
Bragg is a democrat- therefore no crimes were committed- it’s impossible for democrats to commit crimes apparently-

Alvin Bragg: A lifetime of hard work, courage and demanding justice.
Alvin L. Bragg, Jr. is the 37th District Attorney elected in Manhattan. A son of Harlem who has served as both a state and federal prosecutor, Alvin has spent more than two decades fighting to make our communities safer and our criminal justice system fairer. He is the first Black Manhattan DA in the history of the office.
Alvin restructured the Manhattan DA’s Office to focus more resources on prosecuting serious violent crimes, meeting the needs of survivors, reducing recidivism by addressing the underlying causes of criminal behavior, protecting everyday New Yorkers from abuses by the powerful, and correcting past injustices by vacating wrongful convictions. Alvin also directly oversees a unit to root out police misconduct.
Under his leadership so far, the office has increased gun prosecutions, focused on gun traffickers and ghost gun manufacturers, and charged and secured convictions for numerous armed robberies, shootings, and homicides. At the same time, the office invested in community-based gun violence prevention programs and services to address the trauma suffered by victims and witnesses to gun violence.
Alvin created a new Special Victims Division, which includes the Intimate Partner & Sexual Violence Bureau, and the Human Trafficking, Child Abuse, and Elder Abuse Units. The Division is staffed with specially trained prosecutors, investigators, analysts, and social workers who are dedicated to handling these extremely sensitive cases in a trauma informed and survivor centered manner.
In line with his deep commitment to centering the well-being of survivors, Alvin has elevated the work of the Witness Aid Services Unit by giving the office’s counselors and social workers additional resources to meet a wide range of needs for survivors, witnesses, and victims’ family members.
Alvin also expanded the Hate Crimes Unit with additional prosecutors, investigators, analysts, victim services staff and community partnership coordinators. The Unit is taking on a record number of complex cases and conducting intensive outreach to build community trust and encourage reporting of hate crimes.
Recognizing that criminal behavior is often driven by underlying needs that will not be met exclusively by incarceration, Alvin created the Pathways to Public Safety Division. Pathways ADAs screen and assess every case as early as possible for potential diversion into evidence-based programming, including mental health and substance use treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy, education, and job training, with the goal of reducing recidivism and making Manhattan safer. Each case is assessed individually. If diversion is appropriate, services are individually tailored to address the person’s needs and safely reintegrate them into the community.
As a long-time white-collar prosecutor, Alvin believes in holding powerful people accountable for harming everyday New Yorkers. He secured a 6-count indictment against Stephen K. Bannon and WeBuildTheWall, Inc., a Florida-based not-for-profit corporation, on charges including money laundering, conspiracy, and scheme to defraud in connection with a year-long fundraising scheme that netted more than $15 million from thousands of donors across the country based on false promises. He also secured the conviction of Trump Organization Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg on 15 felony counts in connection with a long-running tax evasion scheme. He launched a dedicated Housing and Tenant Protection Unit to investigate and prosecute landlords and developers who engage in systemic fraud and tenant harassment. And he is committed to prosecute employers who steal wages and endanger workers.
Alvin also believes that police and prosecutors must be held to the highest standards in order to strengthen community trust in our justice system. He created a revamped Post-Conviction Justice Unit to reinvestigate closed cases where there are credible claims of innocence or unjust conviction. He also created a stand-alone Police Accountability Unit to investigate, and if warranted, prosecute officers who engage in criminal conduct in their policing capacity. Both units are insulated from the rest of the office and report directly to the DA.
Prior to his election as DA, Alvin served as an Assistant Attorney General at the New York State Attorney General’s Office and as an Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York. In these roles, Alvin handled a wide array of criminal cases, including armed robbery, assault, gun possession, witness tampering, narcotics and gun trafficking, wage and hour violations, public corruption, money laundering, and antitrust violations.
He ended his service in the State AG’s Office as the Chief Deputy Attorney General, overseeing more than 1,500 people, a budget of $225 million, and the office’s criminal and civil investigations and litigation, including health care fraud, public corruption, narcotics trafficking, wage-and-hour investigations, tenant harassment, and securities fraud. Alvin also directly oversaw the Attorney General’s litigation against the Trump Foundation and served as the first Chief of a special unit that investigated deaths caused by police conduct.
After his government service and before being sworn in as District Attorney, Alvin was a Visiting Professor of Law and Co-Director of the Racial Justice Project at New York Law School. In that role, he represented Eric Garner’s mother and sister in a lawsuit against the City of New York seeking details concerning Mr. Garner’s death.
Alvin earned his A.B. from Harvard University, a J.D. from Harvard Law School, clerked for Hon. Robert P. Patterson, Jr. in the Southern District of New York. Alvin is a former member of the Board of Directors of the New York Urban League and the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, and a Sunday School teacher at his church.

All these lawfare cases are sloppy because they are desperate and don’t have real violations to present so they’re just winging it. Plus they are totally corrupt themselves and not held accountable by the liberal media, so they don’t even try to do an honest efficient job.
Thus they end up with horrible cases that can’t withstand the smallest degree of scrutiny.
They’ll “convict” Trump then it will go to appeal which won’t be adjudicated until 2030. But the damage to Trump they sought will be enough. They will trumpet “Convicted felon Trump” a thousand times a day.
America’s existential threat is the absence of consequences for Democrats!

The pattern that politicians and media outlets escape any consequences for their actions must change if America is to survive.
America as we know it is facing its ultimate existential threat, all focused on whatever the left thinks it will take to ensure Donald Trump is not our next President.
Our dear, constitutional America has crossed the political Rubicon (perhaps the River Styx). In addition to foreign policy, border, and economic problems, it now faces a breakdown in our justice system.
Those who use governmental powers to cheat or commit politically based crimes have no concerns about punishment.
Heavily abetted by the Marxist progressives in control of our educational, media, and justice systems, nothing is out of bounds for them.
Because America’s left has removed religion from the public space and demonstrates immorality at every turn, we then must look at this issue differently because we now have citizens who have no compunction about lawlessness.
With leftists (progressive Marxists), who now include all Democrat politicians, no penalties for lawlessness apply, and that’s for two reasons.
One, they have no shame, and two, even where a penalty could be applied, it won’t.
As James Comey explained in 2016, Hillary Clinton was fully caught having committed several serious violations of our secrecy acts. Ignoring a court order to preserve evidence (as well as statutory requirements for government records), she deleted 30,000 emails and smashed multiple cell phones, yet no one was prosecuted. So, lawlessness worked.

A whole bunch of people should be in jail, and none of them are Trump.
I would have LOVED to see Tony Buzbee handle this case for Trump. Tony did a fundraiser for Trump way back then pushed away from him over the “grab them by the pu$$y” comment. Since then, I’m sure they have made up.
Tony would be destroying the other side for Trump right now.
