They’ve fired off a letter DEMANDING members of Manhattan DA Brag’s staff explain to them why their ‘main man’ is gonna be the subject of an arrest….
A “Letter’?
Huh?
Anyone think the DA is gonna entertain this?
I’m not a lawyer but intimidation could be seen as ‘obstruction of justice’?
A trio of Republican House chairmen are demanding testimony from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg ahead of his potential prosecution of former President Trump in connection with hush money payments made ahead of the 2016 election.
The letter to Bragg comes after Trump claimed over the weekend he could be arrested as soon as Tuesday and asked his supporters to prepare to protest on his behalf….
…
The GOP lawmakers cited Trump’s announced bid for office in 2024 in asking for documents and communication about the probe. They said Bragg should sit for an interview “as soon as possible.”…
…
“Defending Trump is not a legitimate legislative purpose for Congress to investigate a state district attorney,” Rep. Daniel Goldman (D-N.Y.), who before joining Congress worked as a counsel to Democrats in Trump’s first impeachment, wrote on Twitter.
“Congress has no jurisdiction to investigate the Manhattan DA, which receives no federal funding nor has any other federal nexus.”….

Why the hell are you “taken aback by the idea of indicting a former President” who has engaged in criminal behavior? Why continue to make excuses for Trump who would rather see you hanged & rancid behavior you decry in others? His base will not vote for you. Get over it. #Dignity

Mike Pence on ABC: “At the time when there’s a crime wave in New York City, the fact that the Manhattan DA thinks that indicting President Trump is his top priority I think just tells you everything you need to know about the radical left.”

I don’t see Pence as a major factor in 2024.
Me neither……
He’s going to testify AGAINST Trump for the Federal January 6 trial which aces him out besides running against the Big Guy…..
I still think BOTH Tump and DeSantis Could out for the nomination
I know that’s crazy
But I’m sticking with my view for now…
