Mediaite reports:
The Drudge Report, Matt Drudge’s right-leaning news aggregator ran a headline on Friday declaring former President Donald Trump threatened Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg in a Truth Social post on Thursday night, which Trump deleted on Friday afternoon.
On Thursday, Trump shared a link with a split-screen image of him holding a bat on one side with an image of Bragg’s head on the right. Trump has been on a tear attacking Bragg in recent days and has been slammed as “racist” for calling him a “SOROS BACKED ANIMAL.”
Read the full article.
Trump’s deletion came shortly after multiple outlets reported that Bragg had received a death threat note in an envelope containing white powder.

Threatening a prosecutor is a crime in NY. In fact MULTIPLE crimes:
Harassment in the first degree NYPL 240.25;
menacing in the second degree NYPL 120.14;
stalking in the fourth or third degree NYPL 120.45 & 120.50
And that’s just for starters…. https://t.co/yRFJZlo6YO

Interestingly, this is exactly the kind of post I would put on social media were I a target in a criminal investigation and I wanted to be denied bail. pic.twitter.com/yy79EcCHbs
