Following an intense day of media coverage surrounding Donald Trump’s arraignment in New York City Tuesday, “Last Word” host Lawrence O’Donnell was left gobsmacked while discussing the former president’s social media harassment of Manhattan Da Alvin Bragg and his wife, Jamila Ponton Bragg.
“Not in the entire history of the island of Manhattan has that ever happened,” O’Donnell said of the Truth Social posts calling out Ponton Bragg as, among other things, a “Trump Hating Wife.”
“No mafia boss – no one – has ever done that.”
The post in question came on Saturday, April 1, three days ahead of the proceedings in NYC.

It’s Sunday morning, which means political analysis on current events dominates the morning talk shows. Face The Nation, This Week, Meet The Press and President Donald Trump’s Twitter feed are all part of the menu.
The Commander-in-Tweet again stated his case this morning for his own fabulousness, touting his economic achievements and historical record. The tub-thumping has become a regular feature of the Trump tweetstorm, which rewards friends, punishes enemies, touts success and generally takes a subjective stance on current events.
Which is pretty much what every other program in the “hostile and corrupt media” does, only in much subtler ways than telling us, “That is a Big Deal!”
Today’s tweetstorm so far:
If Schiff wasn't coaching Cohen on how to go after Trump before his testimony and was just going over procedural issues, why didn't he invite Gop staff to sit in on these secret meetings?...
