Manhattan DA Hires Big Gun to Lead Trump Probe

“The Manhattan district attorney, Alvin Bragg, is hiring a former senior justice department official with a history of taking on Donald Trump and his family business, as the office seeks to ramp up its investigation into the former president,” the New York Times reports.

“The official, Matthew Colangelo, who before acting as third in command at the Justice Department, led the New York attorney general’s civil inquiry into Mr. Trump, will likely become one of the leaders of the district attorney’s criminal investigation into the former president.”
