Michael Cohen just exposed how corrupt the investigations into Donald Trump were.
Cohen said he felt “coerced and pressured” by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and New York Attorney General Letitia James.
Cohen wrote, “From the time I first began meeting with lawyers from the Manhattan DA’s Office and the New York Attorney General’s Office in connection with their investigations of President Trump, and through the trials themselves, I felt pressured and coerced to only provide information and testimony that would satisfy the government’s desire to build the cases against and secure a judgement and convictions against President Trump.”
Michael Cohen, a former personal attorney for President Donald Trump, claimed that he was “coerced and pressured” by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and New York Attorney General Letitia James to flip on Trump as they launched investigations into him.
In a Substack article, Cohen revealed that “a federal appeals court” had revived “Trump’s effort to undo” his conviction from his business records trial. In May 2024, a jury found Trump guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree regarding payments made through Cohen to adult actress Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential election.

“The first trial was a civil action brought by the New York State Attorney General’s Office alleging that President Trump fraudulently inflated his assets to obtain favorable loan terms,” Cohen continued. “The court found President Trump liable and ordered that he and other defendants pay a staggering $454 million penalty, which was later overturned on appeal.”
Cohen went on to explain that the second trial against Trump “was a criminal action brought by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office alleging that President Trump falsified business records in connection with hush money payments made to Karen McDougal and Stormy Daniels to influence the 2016 presidential election.”
Trump said that this is just more proof that the investigation against him was “very corrupt.”
In a Friday night phone conversation, Donald Trump told The Daily Wire that this was further proof that it was a “very corrupt investigation” that Cohen testified in. Trump has long held that Cohen is a liar, and was only cooperating to get his prison sentence reduced.
Cohen writes about the two trials in which he testified against Donald Trump: the first, a civil action brought by the New York attorney general’s office accusing Trump of fraudulently inflating his assets to get favorable loans. The second case was a criminal action by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office alleging that Trump falsified business records related to hush money payments to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal to influence the 2016 presidential election.
Trump responded by saying, “These horrible Radical Left people, doing everything possible to destroy our Country, should pay a big price for this!”
These horrible Radical Left people, doing everything possible to destroy our Country, should pay a big price for this! It was a SET UP from the beginning. New York Courts, with many fair and wonderful Judges, are embarrassed by what has happened! We cannot let this pass.
Trump was right again – the investigation was a witch hunt!
