EXCLUSIVE: The House Judiciary Committee is demanding that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg testify before Congress in the wake of his “unprecedented abuse of prosecutorial authority,” as he reportedly considers indicting former President Trump for alleged hush money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels in 2016.
Jordan warned Bragg that if news reports of a possible Trump indictment are accurate, Bragg’s actions"will erode confidence in the evenhanded application of justice and unalterably interfere in the court of the 2024 presidential election."
Former President Donald Trump told Columbia Journalism Review he had to fight off"unbelievably fake stories" during his presidency. "The only potential speculated crime that could be alleged here would be a violation of campaign finance law, according to one scholar, a charge that the Justice Department has already declined to bring," Jordan wrote.Federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York in 2019 opted out of bringing charges against Trump or anyone else beyond Cohen for campaign finance violations related to the Stormy Daniels payment.
Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance, Jr. opened an investigation into Trump and his family's businesses in 2019.
