johnny maga @_johnnymaga Michael Cohen, the star witness in Trump’s hush money trial is telling jurors there are threats to themselves & their families, facial recognition will reveal their identities & turn their lives upside down He just screwed the prosecution & did Trump a massive favor

VIDEOWe all know that Michael Cohen is a liar. However, his TDS has gotten so extreme that he has gone JUST PLAIN NUTS as you can see here. The Biden White House are so desperate to GET TRUMP that they went to the laughable extreme of directing their chubby puppet Alvin Bragg to make Cohen their STAR WITNESS in their laughable case against Trump. It reminds me of the J6 Committee with all the evidence they supposedly had and their STAR WITNESS turned out to be Cassidy Hutchinson that not only provided only third hand hearsay "evidence" but later had...

The conduct of Fani Willis, Alvin Bragg, Jack Smith, Dana Nessel and their ilk needs to be compared to the conduct of disgraced and disbarred Durham County, NC prosecuting attorney Mike Nifong. Nobody in conservative talk radio is making this comparison. They ought to start banging on this drum immediately. The decision of the NC Bar disciplinary commission can be found here. It makes for very interesting reading. https://www.ncbar.gov/orders/06dhc35.pdf

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg tore into House Republicans' 'unprecedented campaign of harassment and intimidation' after Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan subpoenaed prosecutor Mark Pomerantz on Thursday. Pomerantz worked in Bragg's office and tried to persuade the DA he should prosecute Trump - but quit when Bragg rejected his legal theories. It's unclear if Pomerantz, who wrote a book about the need to prosecute Trump after quitting Bragg's office, will challenge the subpoena or comply.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office said a parking garage attendant who was wounded wrestling a gun away from an alleged thief and shooting the suspect will not face charges at this time, according to FOX 5 NY. Moussa Diarra, 57, was initially charged with attempted murder, assault and criminal possession of a weapon in the incident that unfolded Saturday morning. Diarra had noticed a man peering into cars on the second floor of the West 31st Street garage in Manhattan when he confronted him and asked what was in his bag. The suspected thief, Charles Rhodie, 59, then pulled...

Is the title of this piece apocalyptic hyperbole? I wish it were. But everyone in the country and most of the people in the wide world know that Donald Trump has not actually been indicted for the crime of giving hush money to a prostitute. He has been indicted for the crime of opposing the Leftist elites and challenging their control over the political system. For the first time in American history, a politician – indeed, a front-running presidential candidate – has been indicted in order to destroy his political chances. Americans used to take pride in the fact that...

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) lamented that "outside interference is denying me the right to give Trump the punishment he so richly deserves as an enemy of democracy." It seems that the grand jury assembled to consider whether the former president ought to be indicted is balking at handing Bragg the prize he covets. On Monday, Robert Costello appeared before the grand jury and provided evidence indicating that Bragg's prime witness against Trump, Michael Cohen, may be lying. "I was set up," Bragg complained. "I thought that as a former legal advisor to Michael Cohen this Costello guy would...

Rude reps for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg told a House Judiciary staffer to “stop calling us with this bulls–t” after he made multiple attempts to get in touch by phone. The Judiciary Committee staffer who called Bragg’s office at noon on Wednesday was promptly hung up on after he identified himself to a woman who answered the phone, a person familiar with the call told The Post. When the staffer called back a second time and identified himself, a second woman bluntly told him, “Your committee has no jurisdiction over us. You’re wrong. Stop calling us with this bulls—t,”...

CNN anchor Don Lemon said Friday on “CNN This Morning” that former President Donald Trump’s “racist” attacks on Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and New York Attorney General Letitia James were “really disturbing.” Partial transcript as follows: LEMON: This is really disturbing to me because he’s been doing this for a while, and I think we can’t talk enough about it, where he’s been calling these prosecutors who happen to be African-American, saying that they’re racist. He called Alvin Bragg a Soros-backed animal. He’s turning to his old tricks here of, you know, being racist or racist-adjacent, using that type...

Former President Donald Trump has sparked outrage by sharing images showing him holding a baseball bat next to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s head — and calling him “a degenerate psychopath” who “hates the USA!” Trump, 76, shared the image — featured in a link to an article — on his Truth Social platform Thursday as he devoted his day to attacking the prosecutor for pursuing a case over the “hush money” payout to porn star Stormy Daniels. “They are HUMAN SCUM!” he wrote in one post asking why Bragg “refuses to do the right thing and ‘call it a...

A $1 million donation from liberal billionaire George Soros to a political action committee that backed Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has come under the spotlight as the Democrat weighs indicting former President Donald Trump. Trump may soon face an indictment in connection to alleged hush money payments he made in 2016 to porn star Stormy Daniels, who has said the two had a sexual relationship. Soros donated $1 million in May 2021 to Color of Change, a racial justice PAC that later used the money to support Bragg in his successful district attorney bid against Republican Thomas Kenniff, a...

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg on Thursday refused to cooperate with a rapidly expanding probe by House Republicans into the Stormy Daniels “hush money” case he’s pursuing against former President Donald Trump. In a letter to three GOP committee chairmen, a top Bragg aide said that “the District Attorney is obliged by the federal and state constitutions to protect the independence of state law enforcement functions from federal interference.” The Democratic DA’s general counsel, Leslie Dubeck, accused the Republicans — led by Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan of Ohio — of acting on behalf of Trump, 76, when they sent...

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) for the first time on Thursday addressed a claim by former President Trump that he would be arrested in connection to an investigation into a hush money payment made to adult film star Stormy Daniels, calling it the creation of a “false expectation.” Bragg, in response to demands by House Republicans to force his testimony and turn over all documents and communication on the case, wrote in a letter to Congress that such a move was an “unprecendent[ed] inquiry into a pending local prosecution.” “The letter only came after Donald Trump created a false...
