Trump lawyer Alan Dershowitz offered free pierogi for life after Martha's Vineyard dumpling row
Alan Dershowitz might not be able to get his pierogi fix among the woke on Martha's Vineyard, but a Florida peddler of the doughy delights is offering more than enough for the ex-Trump lawyer to fill his belly.
South Florida-based Peter Nowocien, owner of PierogiOne restaurant, told The Post that no one should ever be denied the Polish comfort food staple — and pledged to send Dershowitz and his family free pierogi for life.
'Pierogi should bring people together — not divide them,' said Nowocien, a Polish immigrant who moved to the US six years ago.

In a highly publicized clash on Martha's Vineyard earlier this month, the 86-year-old Dershowitz — a retired Harvard Law prof and former lawyer to President Trump and Jeffrey Epstein — got into it with a local pierogi vendor who refused to sell his goodies to him.
Dershowitz last week announced he is filing a discrimination suit against the West Tisbury Farmers Market where he claims he was denied service over his politics.
Dershowitz's disturbing experience did not sit right with the Trump-supporting Nowocien, who grew up under Communism.
'As a Polish immigrant, I hate to hear about discrimination in the US because of people's political views,' said the 39-year-old, whose father fought against Communism. 'That shouldn't happen here.
Dershowitz took to his YouTube channel last week to announcing he was filing a discrimination suit against the market he claims denied him service on the basis of his politics.

'Discrimination breeds injustice.'
Nowocien, a member of Trump's Mar-a-Lago retreat in Florida, insisted, 'While we may not all agree on politics, no one should be denied a pierogi — or food. This should never happen in the US.'
The businessman said that while the Jewish Dershowitz may not dive into his shop's special Philly cheesesteak, spicy beef or bacon and cheddar variety pierogis, the traditional cheese and potato and mushroom and sauerkraut are classic options.
'I believe the American dream is still possible – because I'm living it,' he said.
Contrasting his life growing up in the shadow of Communism to the capitalist bastion of the US, Nowocien praised the 'highest levels of personal freedom' in the US compared to Europe.
'And we must protect it. Poland has a very tough history. We know what happens when Nazis and Communists try to divide people,' he said.
'I want to bring people together through food.
'We may not all agree on politics, but no one should be denied a seat at the table.'
