Jim Trusty, one of Donald Trump's attorneys in the Mar-a-Lago case, abruptly resigned from his defense team just hours after he appeared on CNN claiming that federal prosecutors "extorted" an attorney in the classified documents probe.
Trusty, who appeared on CNN Thursday evening after the former president was indicted by a federal grand jury in Miami, went after federal prosecutor Jay Bratt, the Justice Department's counterintelligence chief, who last year urged a court to seal the affidavit that supported a search of Mar-a-Lago that uncovered classified material.
