Prosecutors in charge of Trump criminal probe have resigned
4 minutes ago

NEW YORK (AP) — The two prosecutors in charge of the Manhattan district attorney’s criminal investigation into former President Donald Trump suddenly resigned Wednesday, throwing the future of the probe into question.

A spokesperson for District Attorney Alvin Bragg confirmed the resignations of Carey Dunne and former mafia prosecutor Mark Pomerantz, both of whom started with the probe under the former district attorney, Cyrus Vance Jr.

“We are grateful for their service,” said the spokesperson, Danielle Filson. She declined to comment further, saying the investigation is ongoing.

The New York Times, citing sources, reported that Dunne and Pomerantz quit after Bragg raised doubts about pursuing a case against Trump.

Messages seeking comment were left for Dunne and Pomerantz.

The D.A.’s office investigation led to tax fraud charges last July against Trump’s company, the Trump Organization, and its longtime finance chief, Allen Weisselberg.

Weisselberg was accused of collecting more than $1.7 million in off-the-books compensation, including apartment rent, car payments and school tuition. He and the company have pleaded not guilty.

As I’ve said for years now in here….what would have caused dem prosecutors to be fired?


For every action, there is an opposite but equal reaction.

Unknown force      Known force
              ?                =  dem prosecutors getting fired.


Must be fucking epic.

Can’t wait!

They've been persecuting Trump for quite awhile, doing the bidding for Clinton, Biden and Obama.

Looks like their boat is finally springing some leaks.

Yeah, most people are missing the most important part of the article, which is an indication that the DA doesn't want to prosecute and these guys resigned in protest, likely because they want Trump prosecuted. Reading comprehension is a lost skill, apparently.

I must have missed that.  Who was fired?

OP's article says both resigned, and the DA is having doubts.

According to an article  I read earlier Durham has turned his investigation toward the previous US Attorney for S NY.  I can’t find the damn article.

Interesting.

So they quit because they are being prevented from charging Trump even though they are convinced that Trump is guilty of "something"?

Or they quit because they were being forced to prosecute Trump despite the total lack of evidence?

Either way I hope anyone and everyone going after Trump for this bullshit ends up in Federal prison themselves.

Never take a case to court you know you can't win.  I suspect these folks would come out looking like the douche-bag prosecutor that tried to bury Rittenhouse.  They'd come out looking like fools because their case is built on political hatred, not facts.

Exactly. Prosecution is a numbers game, and trying this case will be incredibly expensive and resource intensive and has a high risk of blowing up in the prosecutor's face if he loses.  It's a potential career ender.

That’s the part from the NYT citing sources? Unless they name the sources I am calling BS. This way they can pretend Trump is guilty without trying the case.

Again, I wonder if Michael Sussman the Durham indicted Clinton attorney is related to Donald Sussman the billionaire hedge fund manager that gave Hillary $2 million for her campaign in 2016?

The article was clearly published with the intent of trying to embarrass the DA and try to get him to prosecute the case.  I'm only commenting on what the article says, none of us know what is going on behind the scenes.

Poor guys, they’re just misunderstood.
They’re just some innocent mud farmers in the middle of a rock and a hard place.
You see after getting squat from all that digging they couldn’t move forward without making something up that wouldn’t also get them into trouble! That’s why they had to quit, those poor gentlemanly mud scholars deserve our sympathy!

Yes, but this is GD.  It seems Bragg doesn't really want to prosecute anyone.... arrest resisters, fare beaters and shoplifters even armed robbers... He should have run legal aide, not a district attorney's office.  His dem electorate must be gnashing teeth that he is giving Trump a pass

But why would this POS Alvin Bragg have concerns about a flaky prosecution?  He seems like as big a dirt bag as there is when it comes to lack of prosecutorial integrity.  What's your best guess, Aimless?
