Jay Bratt, a key prosecutor involved in the investigation of former President Trump, has resigned from the Justice Department. His departure comes as Trump prepares to take office again and many government officials fear retaliation from Trump's upcoming appointees, including Pam Bondi as attorney general and Kash Patel as FBI Director. Bratt was known for his role in the Mar-a-Lago raid and for allegedly threatening Stanley Woodward, a lawyer for Trump's valet Walt Nauta.
According to reports, Bratt tried to influence Nauta's lawyer to testify against Trump by threatening Woodward's professional future and suggesting he could sabotage Woodward's judicial nomination. This led to a complaint of prosecutorial misconduct filed by Woodward in court regarding Bratt's actions.
In a recent development, Trump announced that Stanley Woodward will serve as a top legal advisor in his White House, marking a significant shift since Bratt reportedly tried to intimidate him. Woodward has a background representing victims of what he calls "Democrat lawfare. "
Bratt's resignation is seen as a warning about potential changes and a possible exodus of experienced lawyers and FBI agents from the department due to the looming influence of Trump’s loyalists. This situation reflects the growing tensions between Trump's allies and those who had been involved in the investigations against him.
