Alvin Bragg's End Run Around the Constitution
By Don Brown
Here we go again.
Another Soros-funded Democrat prosecutor takes aim at President Donald Trump.
Fearing they cannot legitimately beat him at the ballot box, they resort to open, politically-motivated lawfare to keep him out of office.
We’ve endured four years of Mueller's failed "Russiagate" hoax, two failed, politically-driven impeachment trials from radical House Democrats in Congress driven by Nancy Pelosi, not to mention the highly-partisan “January 6” Committee that failed to call a single witness adverse to their pre-cooked “it-was-an-insurrection” narrative, and a host of other Trump-related political prosecutions.
But now, this weekend's announcement from President Trump that he expects to be indicted on Tuesday in Manhattan forecasts the most radical tactic yet that the Democrats will use to block Trump's return to power: lawfare with unfounded charges in the criminal courts.

Um, Bragg is attempting to enforce New York State law, not Federal law.
The current proceeding is a Grand Jury, which is a prosecutorial proceeding to demonstrate there is sufficient evidence or cause to indict someone.
If Tangerine Mussolini is indicted, he will be afforded the opportunity to defend himself in court, which is his Constitutional right.

Precedent was enstablished in the case, The State of New York vs Ham Sandwich.

In the end, Bragg is a string-pulled, bush league puppet out on a limb with a weak case.
Any good set of lawyers could just steamroll this case and humiliate his entire office.
