Trump's top Manhattan prosecutor unnerves legal experts with his cable TV habit
The top Manhattan prosecutor in Trump's Department of Justice is alarming legal experts with his behavior.During a recent interview, Adam Klasfeld raised red flags over Jay Clayton, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, because of his constant appearances on CNBC. Clayton "sowed doubt" over the California elections, but that wasn't all the stunned Klasfeld, who's been a court reporter for the past two decades."I have never seen a U.S. attorney engage in political commentary on cable, period," Klasfeld said. "And he is now a regular fixture, Jay Clayton, on Squawk Box on CNBC, where he spouts off pro-Trump talking points regularly."In addition to bringing up unfounded fraud concerns around the California elections, Clayton has also talked about how Trump was wronged in criminal prosecutions against him, defended the $1.776 billion slush fund, and engaged in "soft election denialism," Klasfeld said.Michael Popok, a former prosecutor and the host of Legal AF, added to Klasfeld's observations. Popok noted that Clayton "is a very close friend and always has been with Howard Lutnick," Trump's commerce secretary, who's been questioned about his ties to Epstein.Clayton is also a "golfing buddy" with Lutnick and Trump, according to Popok, adding that his purpose is to make the Southern District of New York look good under Trump."When you see him on television, he looks like he's from central casting," Popok said about Clayton. "His sole purpose is to give a veneer of credibility, and to restore some credibility to that office while continuing to be a political hatchet man."THE POPOK POP-UP: BREAKING NEWS AND ADAM KLASFELD, TOO! by Legal AFA recording from Legal AF's live videoRead on Substack

The Trump administration is launching a "massive leak hunt" to find out who spilled details on a panicked conversation inside the White House.A new book by journalists Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan has the Trump White House scrambling to find out who leaked details about the Trump administration's "freakout" over the release of the Epstein files, according to reporting by CNN. The New York Times published an excerpt of the book, "Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump," on Wednesday.The book's excerpt describes a meeting that Trump didn't attend or know about in the Situation Room. Included in the meeting were his senior aides, Vice President JD Vance and White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, last year to plan how to contain the fallout. Others present included then-Attorney General Pam Bondi, then-Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, and FBI Director Kash Patel, according to reporting by The Daily Beast. According to an excerpt of Haberman and Swan's book, Vance "appeared panicked" about how the Epstein files would divide the president's base.CNN cited a person who "detected" the search for the leaker to confirm that the White House is now hunting them down.

Trump 'clearly worried' about losing Senate after latest attack against candidate: analyst
President Donald Trump is increasingly turning his fury at Democratic Senate candidates, MS NOW's Jen Psaki said on Wednesday — because he's seen the data and he's getting scared. The president, she noted, "spent part of his time in the Oval Office today ranting about the Democratic nominees for U.S. Senate in the upcoming election. And he seemed to be focused on one candidate in particular" — that being veteran and oyster farmer Graham Platner, who won a landslide nomination in his primary this week despite a cloud of scandals about his personal life.Psaki played a clip of Trump speaking about Platner."Yeah, once that thug that's up in Maine, he's a thug. He's a thug," said Trump. "I know thugs. I had to deal with thugs. I built a lot of buildings. I dealt with worse than thugs. This guy's a thug. He's a low-level thug. But this is a thug. You know, he's not a businessman at all. His parents supported him. He's a loser. Other than that, he might be very nice.""That is Trump's new line of attack against Graham Platner. He's a thug, the kind of thug who — wait for it — needs help from his parents to start a business, as thugs do," said Psaki, taking care to note that Trump himself relied on his father to get his business off the ground.The key takeaway, she continued, is that "Trump is clearly worried about the Senate. He's clearly worried about Graham. He's clearly worried about [Texas nominee] James Talarico ... And he's not the only one," as a memo from the National Republican Senatorial Committee warned Maine Sen. Susan Collins is uniquely vulnerable to a challenge from Platner."He's still currently leading Susan Collins in the polls," noted Psaki — and "it comes as Platner released his first general election campaign ad today, focused on how he will take on what he calls the 'Epstein class' in Washington." - YouTube youtu.be

Marjorie Taylor Greene stuns Kaitlin Collins with staggering claim about Trump
Former MAGA congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene shocked CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins with a strong claim about President Donald Trump.Greene detailed how Trump called her a "traitor" because she urged the release of the Epstein files, but she turned the tables by saying Trump and "pedophiles and rapists of the elite class" are the real traitors."They should be considered traitors," Greene said. "They're traitors. The ones that refuse to release the Epstein files want to cover up for pedophiles and rapists, and all sorts of disgusting things in these files. Those are the traitors to the American people, and they should be ashamed of themselves.""Are you saying that that applies to the president himself?" Collins asked Greene."I'm saying exactly that," Greene said. "He told me on the phone that his friends would get hurt, and that's why he's against releasing the Epstein files.""It's pretty remarkable to hear you say that," Collins said. "You think the president is a traitor.""What is remarkable to me is that this administration, people that we voted for demanding transparency, the man that campaigned all over the country claiming that he would be the one to drain the swamp, is the very man that fought to keep the Epstein files from being released," Greene said. "Then he, in turn, called me the traitor."

Historians pull apart Trump's 'skewed narrative' on presidential walk of fame
The New York Times had historians look at President Donald Trump's presidential walk of fame and called out obvious biases and an odd writing style.Trump's "Walk of Fame" features 47 plaques and a summary of all of the 47 presidencies, including Trump's. According to a detailed article by the Times, the histories are skewed and "peppered with falsehoods, misrepresentations, insults, praise, self-promotion and erratic capitalizations."Historians familiar with Democratic and Republican presidencies looked at the summaries included in the walkway and found a "skewed narrative" that cast Trump "as the protagonist." The summaries are written in "Trump's signature hyperbolic style, as seen in his social media posts," the Times wrote based on feedback from the historians.Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, said in a statement, "As a student of history, many were written directly by the president himself." Sean Wilentz, an American history professor at Princeton University, told the Times that the presidential walk of fame is "not so much bad history as it is anti-historical."The Times also noted a "sharper and more partisan tone" in the summaries for more recent presidents such as Joe Biden and Barack Obama. The "Walk of Fame" also describes the White House ballroom as already built, and the description of the first year of Trump's second term is longer than those for presidents Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Delano Roosevelt combined.

Trump jinxes NY Knicks? Fans blame president after Bridges ‘disappears’ in Game 3 of finals.
On Monday, President Trump became the first sitting U.S. president to attend an NBA Finals game, appearing at Game 3 of the Knicks vs. Spurs series at Madison Square Garden, where he was loudly booed by the New York crowd during the national anthem.But his less-than-warm welcome wasn’t the only controversial thing that happened. After the Knicks lost 115-111, some Knicks fans blamed Trump for throwing the home team off its mojo. Apparently his attendance created a circus-like atmosphere with heavy security, booing, and shifted crowd energy that allegedly contributed to the team’s loss.According to some disgruntled fans, Trump’s appearance is why Knicks player Mikal Bridges “disappeared.” The shooting guard had a rough game, scoring only two points, leading to his benching in the second half.“They’re — of course — blaming him for the loss,” sighs “Pat Gray Unleashed” co-host Keith Malinak. Before Game 3, "The View’s" Alyssa Farah Griffin expressed concern about Trump attending the game and warned that he would be the scapegoat if the Knicks lost.“If I were advising him, I would be like, ‘Do not go, because if they lose tonight, everyone's going to blame Trump,”’ she cautioned.“And it happened,” says Pat. “They are blaming him.”But it appears that Trump is unaware of — or unaffected by — the backlash.In a postgame interview, he said, “It was, I think, mostly cheers. It was loud, and it was very enthusiastic.”Once again, Trump lives rent-free in the heads of his critics — even when it comes to an NBA game.To hear more of the panel’s discussion, watch the episode above.Want more from Pat Gray?To enjoy more of Pat's biting analysis and signature wit as he restores common sense to a senseless world, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.
