Condemning the Political Witch Hunt Against President Trump
Yesterday, the jury in New York City reached a verdict. The biased jury declared President Trump guilty on all 34 sham allegations brought forward by corrupt DA Alvin Bragg.
This politically motivated prosecution has been tainted from the start and spewed forth a stench of prosecutorial persecution until this managed verdict. Prosecutor Bragg’s star witnesses are proven liars, the presiding judge is a Biden donor, and the jury pool overflowed with Trump Derangement Syndrome.
District Attorney Alvin Bragg ran on a campaign pledge to indict President Trump. Bragg took the unprecedented action of converting alleged minor business misdemeanors to 34 individual felonies in an attempt to put President Trump behind bars and humiliate him and his supporters. This week’s verdict is the result of a corrupt DA, a corrupt trial, a corrupt judge, and a corrupt system.
President Trump is a fighter, and he will not back down from this challenge. He and conservatives across the nation will continue to defend the Constitution at all costs. We will not be deterred by the radical Left’s weaponizing and corrupting of the judicial system similar to the former USSR to attack all political opponents.
I will always fight for our Republic and stand with President Trump.
Commemorating Memorial Day
On Monday, we honored the heroic Americans who paid the ultimate price for our freedom.
Their sacrifices will never be forgotten.
