“Before he decided to prosecute Trump, did you know who he was? You do now.”
A top DOJ spokesman in New York got candid in front of a hidden camera.
He was calling out DA Alvin Bragg and stating what we suspected.
Nicholas Biase said that the prosecution of President Trump was “nonsense” and calling it a political stunt.
During his rant, he was accusing Bragg of using “lawfare” to boost his own ambitions.
I mean, he’s not lying.
Did you know who Bragg was before this?

New York Post reports:
A top Department of Justice spokesman in New York was caught on a hidden camera ripping Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg for his recent prosecution of former President Donald Trump — accusing Bragg of conducting “lawfare” just to further his own political ambitions.
Nicholas Biase, chief spokesman for the Manhattan US Attorney’s Office, was secretly recorded tearing into the progressive prosecutor during a recent conversation with a so-called undercover operative from conservative podcaster Steven Crowder’s “Mug Club.”
“Honestly, I think the case is nonsense,” Biase was filmed saying to an unidentified woman on July 31 at what appears to be a bar.
The edited clip, and another from August 14, were released by Crowder on social media Thursday. The identity of the woman who secretly recorded the exchange with Biase wasn’t made public. The Post has not reviewed the full, unedited recordings.
Biase — who said he’d known Bragg for 15 years and previously worked with him at SDNY — described the unprecedented hush money case against Trump as a “perversion of justice” in the footage.
He also claimed the headline-grabbing prosecutor pursued the case to make a name for himself and run for higher office.
