Trump Calls Bragg a 'Criminal' for 'Illegally Leaked' Grand Jury Information

President Trump recently called former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith a “criminal” after he pleaded guilty to altering an email used by the FBI to obtain a warrant to monitor a former Trump campaign aide in 2016. Now, Trump has set his sights on Richard Bragg, a prosecutor in Maryland, accusing him of leaking information about a grand jury investigation into Trump’s 2016 campaign advisers. In a tweet, Trump called Bragg a “criminal” and accused him of illegally leaking information intended to hurt his administration. The president has been a vocal critic of leaks throughout his time in office, and his comments about Bragg come at a time when he is facing increasing scrutiny regarding his very own involvement with Russia during the 2016 campaign. Overall, this incident underscores the high stakes of the upcoming election and the ongoing battles unfolding in the courts and in the court of public opinion.
