Who is Alvin Bragg, DA leading Trump hush money investigation

Former President Donald Trump claims he will be arrested Tuesday. Trump did not provide any specific proof of this, and his campaign communications director told NewsNation there has been “no notification,” other than leaks to media outlets, that Trump’s arrest is imminent.

Trump’s comments come after a grand jury heard evidence in a New York hush money investigation. The probe is centered around a $130,000 payment former Trump aide Michael Cohen made to adult film star Stormy Daniels in the days leading up to the 2016 election to keep her from going public. Daniels claims she had an affair with Trump. The former president has denied the allegation.

Some have questioned if the money could be connected to a potential campaign violation with the nature of the payment seeming to be the core of the investigation that Trump has described as a “witch hunt.”
