Palm Beach, Florida.After federal prosecutors abandoned a number of high-profile criminal cases against him, former President Donald Trump responded angrily on social media, calling the probes politically motivated and an unprecedented waste of taxpayer funds.
On his Facebook page and social media platform, Trump stated, “These cases, like all the other cases I have been forced to go through, are empty and lawless and should never have been brought.” He described the probes as a low time in our nation’s history and said that over $100 million in taxpayer money had been used for what he saw as partisan attempts by Democrats to harm him.
Trump also targeted Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, New York Attorney General Letitia James, and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis as state prosecutors and lawyers in other cases against him. He said that several of them, including Willis, had made money off of their politically motivated prosecutions.
Trump reaffirmed his long-standing assertion that the probes were an effort to discredit him as a political rival and called the withdrawn federal cases a win.
Following months of court battles involving the former president, who is also a front-runner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, federal prosecutors announced that they would drop some of the cases.
Trump accused prosecutors of launching a political campaign against him and referred to the dropped charges as a vindication.
