varied critical of the a brag, and the decision to try to prevent mr. pomerantz from testifying in fact she even said, there i a book, and the d.a. s office, did write a letter to hi publisher, and ask them not to do it, but they never sued they never took any othe action, and the judge wa careful of that. they had an opportunity to prevent book from bein published, which actuall would ve probably lost, becaus that would be prior restraint. but they didn t take tha opportunity, according to this decision by the judge. it sounds like the fact tha mr. pomerantz went public by the, book was so much of his experience in the d.a. s office it really complicates all this effort, right? why don t you think d.a. bragg why didn t he amounts stronger sort of offense, in terms of at least speed on the record saying, this book is on authorized, we do not want t publish. well, he wrote a letter t simon and schuster, where th publishers he had the association for prosecuting attorneys issue an et
quash a subpoena in fact, she said that this wa a lawsuit dressed up, really - it s really a motion to quas the subpoena, and it s not a lawsuit. she also critique mr. bags lawyers for not following cour procedure. she took about 18 excerpts fro mark pomerantz s book, excerpt that shows that he critique th hush money investigation the one that is now been indicted in fact, he even quotes, and this is according to mr. pomerantz. he quotes mr. bragg same, that he can t say oh for testimony. and michael cohen, it s o course a star witness of the d.a. s office. so the judge put thos excerpts in the decision she also said the first 35 pages of the complaint, was public relations tirade, against former president trump so, she put a lot into the decision, the judge, that wa
dot dose a very questionable congressional oversight and mr bags investigation chairman jordan is trying to force attorney frank promise t testify before congress. now, if you remember, pomerant was a manhattan prosecutor, wh once flooded investigation int the fraud of the trump organization, under th previous manhattan d.a.. cy vance mr. pomerantz resigned early last, year when the new g8 decided not to seek an indictment against trump for that fraud at that time. and after, mr. pomerantz resigned, he wrote a book abou that experience, which mr. bragg did not appreciate chairman jordan now wants mark pomerantz to testify on th record and he wants to know two things, one, what were the interna deliberations not to indic trump back when mr. pomerant was sworn in the show. because that information, ca presumably be very useful to a group of people who don t want trump to be indicted, in a broader fraud case and two, mr. jordan wants to
to produce documents but they did send a letter t d.a. bragg and requests that h come testify and produce documents, they also sent letter to the member of th trial team, and asked that h come testify and produce documents. india bragged said, that i investigation is still continuing that s actually th investigation, but the attorne general for new york state, ha brought a lawsuit against mr trump, and his family. so that could be a criminal indictment, it s now a civil fraud case but that could be a criminal indictment. which would carry big implications in terms of not just accountability but in terms of crimes, right it s a way a yea investigation. what if mr. weisselberg newly released from rikers, he has counsel at least what we r hearing is that this council i
former prosecutors the guy that wrote the book mark pom rants. barring any appeals he will have to testify. he doesn t seem to like donald trump and recently worked under da bragg. you might not know this. he was working for free, because obviously he had an agenda. people should not be working for free. he didn t collect a paycheck while working on the case against donald trump. now, that should not be allowed legally in any way, shape, manner or form. he later wrote this book about his desire to see donald trump behind bars. but don t let your heart be troubled bragg swears that political bias has absolutely nothing to do with these, quote, unintended trumped up charges. we re going to get to my full monologue p mere moments, but let s give a warm welcome to our legal analysts joining us from outnumbered cohost emily compagno is here. how are you? good to see you [cheers and applause]. sean: and author of the soon
