Cohen said said that, from his first interaction with prosecutors in 2019, he felt “pressured and coerced to only provide information and testimony that would satisfy the government’s desire to build the cases against and secure a judgment and convictions against President Trump.”

By Cohen’s account, he was first approached three months into his three-year prison sentence, and all of his actions revolved around his desire to do anything to lessen his prison sentence.

“As later came out during President Trump’s criminal trial, one of the very first questions I asked those prosecutors was how I would benefit from cooperating. The reason was simple: I wanted to do whatever I could to obtain my Rule 35(b) motion, return home to my family and resume my fractured life,” he wrote.

This strategy paid off, and even when he was out of prison, he sought to do all he could to lessen his home confinement and supervised release. He alleged that prosecutors behaved inappropriately in their quest to skewer Trump.

“During my time with prosecutors, both in preparation for and during the trials, it was clear they were interested only in testimony from me that would enable them to convict President Trump. When my testimony was insufficient for a point the prosecution sought to make, prosecutors frequently asked inappropriate leading questions to elicit answers that supported their narrative,” Cohen wrote.

The same dynamics played out in Bragg’s and James’s case, he argued, whether or not they were coordinating this.

“Letitia James and Alvin Bragg may not share the same office or political calendar, but they share the same playbook. Both used their platforms to elevate their profiles, to claim the mantle of the officials who ‘took down Trump.’ In doing so, they blurred the line between justice and politics; and in that blur, the credibility of both suffered,” Cohen wrote.

Trump latched on to the article. He shared a report on Cohen’s bombshell article on his Truth Social, demanding those who pressured Cohen pay a “big price” in response.

“These horrible Radical Left people, doing everything possible to destroy our Country, should pay a big price for this! It was a SET UP from the beginning. New York Courts, with many fair and wonderful Judges, are embarrassed by what has happened! We cannot let this pass,” Trump wrote.
