"Manhattan DA Pursues Trump Prosecution Despite Political Concerns"

Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, facing criticism and threats, insists that the prosecution of Donald Trump is not politically motivated as the first of Trump's four criminal prosecutions heads to trial. The trial will test Bragg's portrayal of himself as apolitical, as he faces relentless attacks from Trump and his supporters. Bragg, who has been the target of racist emails and death threats, has compared the prosecution against Trump to any other case of financial crime and insists that the case is about allegations of falsifying business records and financial crimes.
