Trump Delivers Terrifying News To Alvin Bragg

President Donald Trump has made it clear that his top priority will be ending what he describes as the “weaponization” of the U.S. government. This crusade to restore fairness and justice begins with the controversial prosecution of Marine veteran Daniel Penny by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

As soon as Trump returned to the White House, he signed two executive orders aimed at protecting American citizens from unjust prosecution and reigning in government overreach. One of those orders, titled Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government, mandates a full review of actions taken by federal agencies under the Biden administration, including questionable prosecutions and censorship efforts. Trump’s orders emphasize that the government should be used to uphold justice—not to inflict political pain.

Trump wrote that the actions taken by political figures, including Bragg, are more about creating political pressure than pursuing true justice. “The weaponization of prosecutorial power against political opponents is a direct threat to our democratic process,” Trump declared.

In an opinion piece for the New York Post, former Deputy Assistant Attorney General John Yoo praised Trump’s executive orders, explaining that they will shield ordinary citizens from the financial and personal devastation caused by politically motivated lawsuits. “The Democrats have used prosecutorial power to undermine the democratic process and target political opponents, including President Trump,” Yoo stated. “But this isn’t just about Trump—it’s about protecting everyday Americans from government abuse.”

The case of Daniel Penny, who was charged by Bragg following the 2023 death of Jordan Neely in New York’s subway system, is a prime example of such misuse of power. Penny intervened when Neely was threatening passengers, yet he was still charged with criminally negligent homicide. A New York City grand jury later acquitted Penny, but the entire process exposed how officials might use the legal system to advance a political agenda, especially when the case involved racial tensions.

Yoo, who is a legal scholar, argued that Bragg’s actions could set a dangerous precedent where prosecutors selectively target individuals to make political statements. This, he noted, undermines the principle of equal justice under the law. Trump has indicated that his administration would investigate whether Bragg’s office considered race in their decision to prosecute Penny. “Freedom from racial discrimination is a central constitutional right,” Yoo wrote, adding that Trump’s Justice Department should look into whether these motivations influenced the case.

Although Trump cannot remove Bragg, who is a state-level official, he can direct the Department of Justice to investigate potential abuses by state and local government officials. Under federal law, specifically 18 U.S.C. 242, it’s illegal for government officials to deny individuals their constitutional rights, and such violations are often prosecuted as misdemeanors. This statute applies to district attorneys, judges, and other officials with government power, opening the door for Trump’s Justice Department to hold them accountable.

Critics, however, argue that applying federal power to cases like Penny’s might be an overreach. Ronald Chapman II, a federal defense attorney, warned that such prosecutions could harm public trust in the justice system if they are not pursued in clear cases of intent to violate rights.

Despite these concerns, Trump’s broader goal is clear: to reform the justice system, combat federal overreach, and protect the constitutional rights of every American. He made it clear in his inauguration speech that his administration would put an end to the politically motivated weaponization of the justice system. By pushing for federal reforms and greater oversight, Trump seeks to restore integrity to our legal system and protect citizens from unjust persecution, whether they’re protesting at a school board meeting or standing up for their rights.

With his executive orders and commitment to reform, President Trump is making it clear that the days of weaponizing the government for political gain are numbered. The scales of justice, he says, will soon be rebalanced.
