Bragg prosecutor touted top Democrats as job references

A prosecutor who helped lead the hush money case against former President Donald Trump once used two key Democrats in the Biden White House as resume references, according to documents made public Tuesday.

Matthew Colangelo, who had a critical role in securing a conviction against Trump in New York, listed former Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez and President Joe Biden’s chief of staff, Jeff Zients, as references for a job Colangelo took in January 2018.
