(DCNF)—Political analyst Mark Halperin expressed confidence on Wednesday that there was additional “coordination” behind the legal cases against President-elect Donald Trump than what is currently known.
Trump faced four criminal cases during the 2024 election, with only one resulting in a conviction before the November election. Halperin, on “The Morning Meeting,” suggested that Trump’s lawyers, some of whom he has tapped to positions within the Department of Justice (DOJ), will likely investigate how the charges against him unfolded, predicting that further troubling information may be uncovered.
“The victories that Trump had in lawfare, they weren’t perfect, right? He did get one conviction, but mostly they had victories. And I think a lot of people in the media and Democrats say it was because the judges were corrupt and the Supreme Court was corrupt and the Trump people used unhanded legal tactics,” Halperin said. “That legal team, just from a competency point of view, did an extraordinary job, and some of them are going into the Justice Department now. And so it’s going to be interesting to see how they use their newfound government power, particularly related to [special counsel] Jack Smith.”
Following his election victory, Trump announced in Truth Social posts that he named several of his defense attorneys to key DOJ roles in his upcoming administration. He tapped Todd Blanche to be deputy attorney general, Emil Bove to be principal associate deputy attorney general and Dean John Sauer to be solicitor general.
“But the other piece of that equation is I have zero doubt that there was more coordination on lawfare that [than] has been reported. I have zero doubt of that, and I think it could be extensively more. And I think that we may see a congressional investigation about that,” Halperin continued. “We may see a Justice Department investigation. Maybe we’ll see someone in the media look into it, but I think that lawfare is not going to age well.”
“And again, just from a zeros and ones results point of view, that legal team did an incredible job for Donald Trump. Cost him millions, but did an incredible job. And by the way, he’s now in this term unburdened by that, at least so far, in terms of investigations,” he added. “And the Democrats have a real credibility problem, not just with the MAGA base, but with a lot of Americans because of what was done. That’s my view on lawfare.”
Matthew Colangelo, who was President Joe Biden’s acting associate attorney general, spent two years in Biden’s DOJ before joining the Manhattan District Attorney’s office as senior counsel in December 2022.
Colangelo was appointed while Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg was still investigating Trump in relation to a $130,000 payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels for her silence regarding an alleged affair. He delivered opening statements for the prosecution against Trump in April, arguing that he falsified business records corresponding to the payment as part of a broader initiative to “corrupt the 2016 election.”
A Manhattan jury convicted Trump in May on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records pertaining to the nondisclosure agreement with Daniels and the president-elect is set to be sentenced either in-person or virtually on Jan. 10.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef.
