Summary
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1:
- In their most recent article for Politico, journalists Kyle Cheney, Erica Orden, and Josh Gerstein write, “Alvin Bragg’s case against Donald Trump is running into a wall of skepticism—including from left-leaning legal experts, liberal pundits and some of Trump’s Republican detractors who have otherwise been eager to see him held accountable.” You can read the full article here: https://www.politico.com/news/2023/04/05/alvin-bragg-case-against-trump-00090602
- On Tuesday former President Donald Trump was arraigned in New York City, appearing before State Supreme Court Justice Juan M. Merchan and pleading not guilty to 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in the first degree. As NewsBusters notes, even mainstream media outlets like ABC and NBC News have expressed skepticism about Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s legal reasoning for bringing charges against Trump.
- After pleading not guilty to 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, former President Donald Trump delivered an address from Mar-a-Lago—insisting that the only crime he is guilty of is “fearlessly” defending “our nation.” Trump explained, “from the beginning the Democrats spied on my campaign. They attacked me with an onslaught of fraudulent investigations…Russia, Russia, Russia…” During the speech, Trump also referred to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg as a partisan “criminal” and claimed President Joe Biden has caused more damage to the country than the “five worst presidents together”.
