Jordan sent a letter to two former Manhattan prosecutors Wednesday requesting their testimonies in Congress over their role in Bragg’s investigation of Trump.
Ohio Representative Jim Jordan sent a letter to two former Manhattan prosecutors Wednesday demanding that the attorneys testify before Congress about their role in the criminal investigation of former President Donald Trump.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is expected to wrap up his investigation within the week into whether Trump was involved in the $130,000 hush money payout to adult- film star Stormy Daniels during his first presidential campaign in 2016. As the indictment looms, Jordan, alongside other House GOP leaders, have launched their own probe into Bragg and his investigation for what they’ve claimed is « an unprecedented abuse of prosecutorial authority. »
In addition to demanding Bragg’s testimony, Jordan has sent a similar letter to two prosecutors—Mark Pomerantz and Carey Dunne—who led the investigation of Trump prior to Bragg taking office in January 2022. Jordan said that Pomerantz and Dunne resigned « in protest » of Bragg’s suspension of their investigation of Trump, in which Bragg had previously indicated he was not fully confident.
