The left is so damned dumb. Not a revelation, I know. He's got to be LOVING all this attention. I wonder have they given any thought to what they are going to do once they finally stick some bullshit charge on him, especially if they legally get him out of the picture for President. They've been hyper-focused on nothing but "Get Trump" since 2016.

One thing that has always stood out to me about Trump: He doesn't know shit about the law and not much more than that about politics. He comes up with the some of the wildest crap:laugh:

Even a clock's right twice a day. He talks about Trump thriving in chaos (which is true, IMO); yet, Christie is completely irrelevant to anything except th MSM getting an anti-Trump soundbyte. Otherwise, Who?

Read more than one article stating that this may only garner him more support. I think we should wait for full details in court. If they tell us everything. This is a repeat of what the feds already failed on, and I believe that now their main source will be Trumps former lawyer, Cohen. And being he went to jail I would say he has the most reason to lie. But we'll see what comes out and what has proof to go along with it.

NYC is preparing for any protest and/or violence. Barriers galore going up near the court house and there will be a huge influx in police. Personally, I think it was stupid to ask for supporters to protest - especially after January the 6th. There are better ways to protest other than the same BS that end in violence and don't accomplish anything. Voting or not voting is the best way to protest.

Gonna be a shit show for sure!

I do believe this is a bunch of BS if they aren't producing much much more info than what was already out there and apparently failed. I don't believe this is about true justice.

That said, I'd still prefer Desantis over Trump. :)

House Judiciary Committee Demands Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg Hand Over Documents and Testify Regarding Possible Donald Trump Indictment

The House Judiciary Committee is ordering far-left Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg to hand over communications, documents, and testimony that Bragg is allegedly planning to use to indict former President Donald Trump.

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) sent the letter Monday morning demanding Bragg’s cooperation. Rep. James Comer (R-KY) and Bryan Steil (R-WI) also signed the letter.

As Gateway Pundit readers know, Trump announced that expects to be arrested Tuesday on specious misdemeanor charges related to an alleged affair with porn star Stormy Daniels. He is accused of providing $130,000 in 2016 to his disgraced former lawyer Michael Cohen, who then allegedly passed the money on as hush money to Daniels.

There is is still one more witness that must testify before any indictment and arrest of Trump can happen, however. Trump expects that this witness, former Rudy Giuliani lawyer Robert Costello, will ultimately clear him of wrongdoing.

Fox News has more on the Jordan letter to Bragg:


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.”

“In light of the serious consequences of your actions, we expect that you will testify about what plainly appears to be a politically motivated prosecutorial decision,” Jordan wrote.

“The legal theory underlying your reported prosecution appears to be tenuous and untested,” Jordan wrote.

The statute of limitations on a matter of “falsifying business records,” which Jordan said “would ordinarily be a misdemeanor subject to a two-year statute of limitations,” would have “expired long ago.”

Jordan said that the five-year statute “would likely expire soon and thus explains your rush to indictment.”

Jordan also slammed who he called Bragg’s “star witness,” Michael Cohen.

“In addition to the novel and untested legal theory, your star witness for this prosecution has a serious credibility problem—a problem that you have reportedly recognized,” Jordan wrote. “This case relies heavily on the testimony of Michael Cohen, a convicted perjurer with a demonstrable prejudice against President Trump.”

Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison in 2018 after pleading guilty to federal charges, including lying to Congress, as well as campaign-finance violations and tax evasion.

“In 2019, when he testified before Democrats on the House Oversight Committee to aid their fruitless investigation into President Trump, Cohen lied again—six times,” Jordan said, adding that Cohen “has been vocal about his deeply personal animus toward President Trump.”

Jordan maintained that “the facts of this matter have not changed since 2018 and no new witnesses have emerged.”

“The only intervening factor, it appears, was President Trump’s announcement that he would be a candidate for President in 2024,” Jordan wrote.

When they do, what they have normalized is going to poison our politics for decades. The tit for tat is going to be lit in DC.
