Trump's reference to a former 'top guy' at DOJ likely points to former DOJ official Matthew Colangelo.

to the Manhattan DA, Colangelo will focus on the"most sensitive and high-profile white-collar investigations" they handle as well as"the Office's cases, policies, and strategies in housing and tenant protection and labor and worker protection."The viral tweet from Trump's campaign and his assertion that the DOJ sent its top"people" to Manhattan imply that multiple federal DOJ attorneys who once worked under Biden now work for Bragg.

[B]ecause the circumstances of this matter stem, in part, from Special Counsel Mueller's investigation, Congress may consider legislative reforms to the authorities of special counsels and their relationships with other prosecuting entities. Accordingly, to advance our oversight, please produce the following documents and information for the period January 1, 2017, to the present:

"District Attorney Bragg Announces Matthew Colangelo as New Senior Counsel." Manhattan District Attorney's Office, 5 Dec. 2022, https://www.manhattanda.org/district-attorney-bragg-announces-matthew-colangelo-as-new-senior-counsel/.

Witness proposed by Trump defense to go before Manhattan grand jury MondayMichael Cohen’s onetime legal adviser is expected to testify before a grand jury examining if Trump broke any laws when indirectly paying off Stormy Daniels. Wapo omits Cohen's conviction and sentencing to prison for tax evasion, making false statements to a federally insured bank, and campaign finance violations. Wapo fails to speculate about Cohen's motives and incentives for testifying, while speculating consistently about Trump. So… the lawyer that drafted the agreement and handled the payment and advised his client the agreement was in good standing with New York and federal law is now testifying he set his client up with a bogus illegal agreement? Lawd I can’t wait to see the malpractice claim 🤣🥴 How can he testify anything about Cohen without violating attorney client privilege?

Trump calls Manhattan DA investigating him a ‘Racist in Reverse'Former President Donald Trump blasted Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who is investigating him, as a 'Racist in Reverse' on his Truth Social site Sunday. A trapped rat will do anything to get out. No such thing as reversed ravism, being a racist isn't limited to just members of one race, plain and simple either you are or you're not. That is like saying its the opposite of bad.

House GOP panel to ‘respond’ to Manhattan DA’s plan to indict TrumpRepublicans plan to use their new investigative powers in the House majority to ramp up probes into the Biden family and liberal Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, amid reports that Mr. Bragg is on the verge of indicting former President Donald Trump on felony charges. Ah yes. People who failed to respond to House Judiciary subpoenas will have lots to say about an actual INDICTMENT of the former president. Jim_Jordan is a disgrace and a threat to our democracy.
