Well done, D.A. Alvin Bragg!

BIDEN’S CASH EDGE DISAPPEARS — Yesterday, we hit the latest FEC filing deadline for presidential campaigns, super PACs and party committees. And the topline is that after an enormous wave of donations triggered by his criminal conviction in New York, DONALD TRUMP has nearly erased President JOE BIDEN’s much-ballyhooed cash advantage, as Jessica Piper and Madison Fernandez report this morning.

$141 million: amount raised by Trump and the RNC in May

$81 million: amount raised by Biden and the DNC in May

$116.5 million: amount of cash on hand for the Trump campaign at the start of June

$91.6 million: amount of cash on hand for the Biden campaign at the start of June
