Trump NY Case: DA Alvin Bragg Sued for Collusion with Biden Admin. (June 12, 2024)

America First Legal filed this week a complaint with the Federal Election Commission alleging that Democrat Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg coordinated with the Biden campaign to prosecute Donald Trump and to influence the 2024 election. The link here is prosecutor Matthew Colangelo According to The New York Times, Colangelo “has a history of taking on Donald J. Trump and his family business” and: – worked in the Obama administration – then went to work for the New York attorney general’s office where he led dozens of lawsuits against the Trump Administration, oversaw the investigation into the Trump Foundation (which caused the organization to dissolve), led the civil inquiry which resulted in AG Letitia James’ lawsuit against Trump. – became the #3 in Biden’s Dept. of Justice – then was hired (a reduction in rank!!) by local NY DA Alvin Bragg to lead the Manhattan prosecution of Trump where a jury decided to convict Trump.

Trump Trial: The Prosecutors & Biden] The FEC complaint also cites Colangelo’s donations to Alvin Bragg and alleges violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA). Summary of the Complaint via the Washington Examiner: ‘Bragg and Biden campaign ‘coordinated’ to influence 2024 election: FEC complaint’ [America First Legal] claimed that Bragg’s prosecution constitutes a “coordinated expenditure” under FECA, resulting in an in-kind contribution to Biden’s campaign exceeding the $3,300 per election limit. The Biden campaign failed to disclose this alleged contribution, violating FEC regulations. … The complaint also detailed that in December 2022, Bragg hired prosecutor Matthew Colangelo to expedite the investigation of Trump. Colangelo, who left his position as the No. 3 official in the Biden Justice Department, has a history of legal actions against Trump. Prior to joining Bragg’s office, Colangelo held senior roles in the DOJ and the New York attorney general’s office, both of which had investigations into Trump. Notably, Colangelo also contributed to Bragg’s district attorney campaign before joining the Biden DOJ.

READ THE FEC COMPLAINT Via America First Legal: FEC Complaint Press Release: America First Legal Files Complaint with the Federal Election Commission Against Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and the Biden Campaign for Violations of the Federal Election Campaign Act WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, America First Legal (AFL) filed a formal administrative complaint with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) against New York County District Attorney Alvin L. Bragg, Jr. and Joe Biden’s principal campaign committee, Biden for President, for violations of the Federal Election Campaign Act. In December 2022, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg reportedly hired Matthew B. Colangelo to “jump-start” his office’s investigation of President Trump due to Mr. Colangelo’s “history of taking on Donald J. Trump and his family business.” Colangelo left his post as the number three in the DOJ to join the district attorney’s office – a move that reeks of partisanship. Colangelo previously held senior positions in the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the New York Attorney General’s Office, both of which had competing investigations related to President Trump. Notably, before joining the Biden DOJ, Colangelo contributed several times to Bragg’s District Attorney campaign. … The available information indicates that Bragg’s hush money prosecution was “coordinated” with President Biden, i.e., it was made “in cooperation, consultation or concert with, or at the request or suggestion of” Biden. … The overall record in these matters — including Colangelo’s “jump-starting” of the case, Garland’s refusal to disclose communications between his Department and Bragg’s office, and the Biden campaign’s press event and statement immediately after the trial and conviction — indicates that Bragg’s hush money prosecution was made to harm President Trump’s 2024 candidacy and would not have been made absent President Trump’s status as a presidential candidate. The outlined information indicates that the Biden Campaign violated its disclosure obligations under the Federal Election Campaign Act when they failed to publicly disclose required contribution information in connection with the Bragg prosecution as a “coordinated expenditure.” A coordinated expenditure must be reported as both a contribution received by and an expenditure made by the authorized committees of the candidate with whom the expenditure was coordinated. Video: AG Garland refusing to disclose communications between the DOJ and Bragg’s office “Without denying the existence of communications between the Biden DOJ and Bragg’s District Attorney’s Office, Attorney General Merrick Garland refused during a congressional hearing to commit to turning over communications between the DOJ and Bragg’s Office,” America First Legal explained.
