Behind the Curtain: MAGA's jail plan

Mike Allen, Jim VandeHei / AXIOS

If former President Trump wins in November, top supporters will push him to investigate, prosecute — and even try to imprison — Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D), who won Trump's conviction in the hush-money case.

• "Of course [Bragg] should be — and will be — jailed," Steve Bannon, one of the top voices of the MAGA movement, told us — saying for the record what many Trump supporters are privately plotting.

Why it matters: This column has reported extensively about all the norms Trump plans to shatter if returned to the White House. Nowhere would that be truer than at the Justice Department, which Trump wants to make his fief and retribution arm.

Bannon told us Bragg could be targeted using the 14th Amendment (equal protection) and Fourth Amendment (outlawing unreasonable searches and seizures by the government) "plus scores of other" laws.

LIVE: Day 3 of Hunter Biden's Gun Trial

"Nazi piece of sh*t!" Hunter's current wife, Melissa Cohen Biden, yelled at former Trump White House aide Garrett Ziegler in the hallways of the federal courthouse where her husband is facing felony firearm charges.

 

"You have no right to be here!" she shouted, pointing her finger at Ziegler, who had published parts of Hunter's infamous "laptop from hell" on his non-profit's website, Marco Polo. The out-of-court confrontation occurred between breaks, before a celebrity appearance of the laptop itself.

Hunter's silver MacBook was physically held up in the courtroom for the jurors to feast their eyes on. The prosecution, using the notorious device as a visual and vehicle to introduce its sordid contents into evidence, laid the laptop down on the witness stand.

Following the computer's cameo, the prosecution presented pictures (either extracted from his laptop or scraped from his iCloud account) of a half-naked and, at times, fully nude Hunter blown up on the projection screen as trial exhibits. Crack pipes appeared in his hand, and a bong sat in the background.
