Preet Bharara, 48, revealed his firing Saturday

NEW YORK (AP) - A defiant Manhattan federal prosecutor, in announcing his firing after he refused to resign, says "absolute independence" was his touchstone for over seven years as he battled public corruption. Preet Bharara, 48, revealed his firing Saturday on his personal Twitter account. Several hours later, it was learned President Donald Trump had reached out through a secretary on his staff to Bharara on Thursday but the two men never spoke. The attempted contact - described by a person told about the conversations who requested anonymity - continued the unusual dynamic between Trump and the high profile prosecutor that stretched to Nov.

Props to Bharara! His courage and conviction should inspire all of us, and give us some degree of hope. Along with my fellow citizens of New York, I've watched this exemplary public servant go after crime and corruption from all corners. His intelligence and integrity have been hallmarks of his tenure.


Perhaps he will be the one who begins the revolt against this corrupt regime.C'mon you politicians, it's time to step up to bat.

Good that this SOB is fired . He only goes after Indians . He caused  a diplomatic incident with India when he went after an Indian diplomat , indicting her for some trumped  up charge that she  was underpaying her housekeeper. He also jailed a Sri Lankan born billionaire for  insider trading,the same thing that other wall street crooks were doing .
He never touched the Jews  with the exception of Bernie Madoff  brother who was already damaged goods because he dared to steal from  Jews.
  He is a Punjabi married to a woman of Pakistani , Jewish ancestry
Good riddance.

for defrauding Germany 42.5 million dollars : by creating thousands of false

Even Joan of Arc would have been jealous of such Bhararan adoration.

But the poor illiterate girl was captured by the Burgundians

and later burned at the stake as a heretic.
