Even disgraced prison inmate Michael Avenatti thinks Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg is making a dumb move going after Trump. Avenatti was Stormy Daniels’ lawyer and hates Trump with a passion. If this guy says the case is weak and that he knows of evidence that will destroy the case against Trump, you know this will backfire on Bragg.
Avenatti said: “There are many critical facts and pieces of evidence (texts, emails, etc.) relating to the hush money scandal that have yet to see the light of day. And they will unfortunately be very damaging to the prosecution if Trump stands trial. At this point, you simply can’t build a case on the testimony of Cohen & Daniels
“Atty Joe Tacopina is no Rudy Giuliani/Sydney Powell. The guy knows his way around a criminal courtroom. He will destroy Michael “Dumb as a Box of Rocks” Cohen on the stand, esp. seeing as Cohen publicly lied for 15 mos. and now won’t stop talking on TV.”
House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH), House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY), and House Administration Committee Chairman Bryan Steil (R-WI) are demanding Bragg testify before Congress.
They wrote him a letter that said:
“Your decision to pursue such a politically motivated prosecution—while adopting progressive criminal justice policies that allow career ‘criminals [to] run[ ] the streets’ of Manhattan —requires congressional scrutiny about how public safety funds appropriated by Congress are implemented by local law-enforcement agencies.
“In addition, your apparent decision to pursue criminal charges where federal authorities declined to do so requires oversight to inform potential legislative reforms about the delineation of prosecutorial authority between federal and local officials.
“Accordingly, to advance our oversight, please produce the following documents and information for the period January 1, 2017, to the present…
“In addition, your testimony is necessary to advance our oversight and to inform potential legislative reforms,” the letter said.
There are many critical facts and pieces of evidence (texts, emails, etc.) relating to the hush money scandal that have yet to see the light of day. And they will unfortunately be very damaging to the prosecution if Trump stands trial. At this point, you simply can’t build a case… https://t.co/ou6LoWv3Ab

Was the Manhattan DA’s office in communication with DOJ about their investigation of President Trump?
