The road is about to get very bumpy for our NY friends.
Now imagine if 10 or 20 other red state AG’s join in and get some federal standing.
Prior to the former president’s conviction, Andrew Bailey said in May that his office demanded the Department of Justice (DOJ) turn over “communications relating to the illicit prosecutions of President Trump.”
“I am demanding the DOJ turn over communications relating to the illicit prosecutions of President Trump. This includes communications between the DOJ and Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, New York AG Leticia James, and Fulton County DA Fani Willis,” he said.
“Thanks to evidence that has come to light, my office has reason to believe Biden’s corrupt Department of Justice is the headquarters of the illicit prosecutions against President Trump,” he added.
Bailey said the investigations into Trump appear to have been conducted in coordination with the Department of Justice, citing the “move of the third-highest ranking member of the Department of Justice, Matthew Colangelo, to the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office in order to prosecute President Trump in December 2022.”
“In addition, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg worked alongside New York Attorney General Letitia James in pursuing civil litigation against former President Trump, using that experience as a springboard from which to campaign for his current position,” noted Bailey.
“During that campaign, Bragg promised ‘if elected, [he] would go after Trump.’ Once he won election, he pledged ‘to personally focus on the high-profile probe into former President Donald Trump’s business practices,’” he added.
According to Fox News, Bailey requested the communications through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).
“Bailey asked for all communications including documents, calendar appointments, meeting minutes and agendas related to Colangelo’s move to Bragg’s office. He also asked for all similar communications between DOJ and the offices of Bragg, New York Attorney General Leticia James and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis,” it noted.
It’s odd that when it is repeatedly asked what the crime Trump was convicted of and it is explained… that the reaction isn’t that he is innocent of that crime but that the crime doesn’t matter.
Yet somehow they had a ton of evidence and got a conviction on all counts.
The AG of Missouri is doing it for recognition on the National Stage for some future poltical career… it isn’t because he has real evidence that the DOJ and Alvin Bragg were in cahoots.
