A good government group is seeking Justice Department records about a Biden-era official’s role in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg‘s lawfare against then-candidate Donald Trump. In its Wednesday lawsuit, the Center to Advance Security in America (CASA) requested the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia to compel the DOJ to hand over documents […]Trump felony conviction in doubt? President files appeal to clear his name
President Donald Trump's legal team has filed an appeal to reverse his New York criminal conviction, in which he was found guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records.
The case, brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D), involved accusations that Trump improperly marked payments he made to his then-personal attorney Michael Cohen as legal expenses in an effort to conceal a $130,000 settlement payment that Cohen made to porn actress Stormy Daniels to keep her quiet about an alleged affair with Trump.
'This case should never have seen the inside of a courtroom, let alone resulted in a conviction.'
Trump secured a new legal team, attorneys with the Manhattan-based firm Sullivan & Cromwell, in January following his inauguration. He was previously represented in the case by Todd Blanche and Emil Bove, whom he has since appointed as U.S. deputy attorney general and U.S. principal deputy associate attorney general, respectively.
Judge Juan Merchan sentenced the then-president elect just days before Inauguration Day with an "unconditional discharge," which allowed Trump to avoid jail time, fines, and probation supervision. While the sentence did not interfere with Trump's ability to return to the White House, it did brand him with a felony criminal conviction.
On Monday, Trump's legal team filed a 96-page appeal, writing, "This case should never have seen the inside of a courtroom, let alone resulted in a conviction."

"The DA, a Democrat, brought those charges in the middle of a contentious presidential election in which President Trump was the leading Republican candidate," the court filing read.
The president's attorneys claimed Bragg "concocted a purported felony by stacking time-barred misdemeanors under a convoluted legal theory."
Trump's legal team told Fox News Digital, "President Trump's legal team filed a powerhouse appeal in the Manhattan DA's Witch Hunt, as the president continues his fight to put an end to the Radical Democrat Lawfare once and for all."
"The Supreme Court's historic decision on Immunity, the Federal and New York State Constitutions, and other established legal precedent mandate that this meritless hoax be immediately overturned and dismissed," the spokesperson said. "President Trump will keep defeating Democrat weaponization at every turn as he [focuses] on his singular mission to Make America Great Again."

Democrats Don’t Care That Mamdani Allegedly Broke Election Laws Because He’s One Of Them
On Sunday the New York Post reported that New York City socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s campaign took in nearly $13,000 in “potentially illegal foreign donations.” Unsurprisingly, the party that spent four years claiming “no one is above the law” when justifying their lawfare against President Donald Trump is now silent on such alleged election […]Alvin Bragg drops charges against woman who attacked pro-life advocate
In the middle of conducting man-on-the-street-style interviews for her YouTube channel, “Her Patriot Voice,” pro-life advocate Savannah Craven Antao was attacked by a woman named Brianna Rivers — and New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg just dropped all charges against her.
“She’s out there on the streets. This woman walks up and the interview — I don’t know, I’m going to say it escalated very quickly,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales comments.
Antao asked basic questions about Rivers’ beliefs surrounding abortion, to which the woman answered that if a woman doesn’t want a baby, she should “just get rid of it.”
“What happens in an abortion?” Antao asked.
“They literally suck the life out of you. They’re going to take the whole baby out. And as they should, because I shouldn’t be a taxpayer paying child support and food stamps,” Rivers replied, audibly yelling.
“You should be a taxpayer paying for abortions?” Antao asked again.
“Exactly. For a woman who didn’t want the baby in the first place, that doesn’t make sense to me. Don’t ever sit here and lock yourself down with a man who already told you he doesn’t want to be with you,” Rivers said.
“But you don’t get to kill the baby just because their dad didn’t want that,” Antao replied.
“You can,” Rivers said, to which Antao replied, “Should we kill the kids in foster care?”
“Why not!” Rivers screamed.
When Antao brought up that the woman appeared to be okay with killing not only unborn babies but babies in foster care, Rivers punched her in the face.
Antao was faced with stitches and $3,000 in medical bills, and Rivers was charged with second-degree assault.
“But it was dropped because Alvin Bragg’s office apparently is full of DEI hires, I guess. I don’t know. They missed a key filing deadline, and they didn’t even turn over evidence to the court in time,” Gonzales says. “Imagine letting the real criminals, the violent criminals, run free because you can’t be bothered to hit your deadlines.”
