Bragg sues Jordan for interfering in Trump investigation

New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg is suing House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) over a "brazen and unconstitutional attack" on his ongoing investigation into former President Trump, according to a new court filing.

Why it matters: Bragg is striking back against a campaign by Trump and his allies, who have sought to undermine Bragg by accusing him of political motivations in his prosecution of Trump over alleged hush money payments.

• The filing claims that starting March 20, Jordan "began a transparent campaign to intimidate and attack" Bragg, demanding confidential documents and testimony.
• The filing claims that Bragg has received multiple death threats — including "a package containing suspicious white powder."

Reps. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, and James Comer, R-Ky., explain how they are looking for answers from DA Alvin Bragg and how House investigators want him to testify on ‘Jesse Watters Primetime.’

Inaccurate, this is how Fox news lie to its viewers. Bragg always said that they used about $5000.

You probably think that Soros gave Bragg 1 million dollars too smh.

“I am disgusted with District Attorney Bragg’s office. They’ve spent thousands of dollars in federal funds to investigate President Trump and receive millions more in federal grants. Congress should immediately cease funding this weaponized office,” Rep. Andy Biggs, Arizona Republican, said Monday on Twitter.

• June 17, 2019: Bragg announced he was running for district attorney
• May 8, 2021: Color Of Change PAC endorses Bragg and pledged to spend $1 million to support Bragg’s campaign through mailers and on-the-ground campaigning, the endorsement said.
• May 14, 2021: Soros made a $1 million contribution to Color of Change, according to data from OpenSecrets

By liberal standards of judgement then, Trump never paid Stormy Daniels because the money came from Cohen; correct? Ignorance is bliss.

Rep. Jim Jordan claims Manhattan DA admitted to using ‘federal funds’ to indict Trump, but that’s not quite true
ADAM KLASFELDApr 11th, 2023, 5:38 pm


Jordan claimed that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg admitted to using “federal funds” to indict former President Donald Trump.

The only problem is: Bragg actually said the opposite, twice.

On the second part of Jordan’s tweet, the Ohio Republican begins to veer away from the facts when he suggests “they say they used” federal money. It was Alvin Bragg’s office that indicted Trump, and his office repeatedly insisted that they haven’t used federal money.

“No expenses incurred relating to this matter have been paid from funds that the Office receives through federal grant programs,” Bragg’s general counsel Leslie B. Dubeck wrote in a letter dated March 31, 2023.

By stark contrast, the DA says, Bragg’s predecessor Cyrus Vance spent roughly $5,000 on expenses incurred relating to the investigation of Donald J. Trump or the Trump Organization between October 2019 and August 2021, according to a letter from the DA’s office.

Congress should immediately cease funding this weaponized office,” Rep. Andy Biggs, Arizona Republican, said Monday on Twitter.

https://lawandcrime.com/trump/rep-j...nds-to-indict-trump-but-thats-not-quite-true/

Bragg’s just-filed lawsuit against Jordan reiterates that there’s no connection between the federal funding and Trump’s indictment.

“Specifically, Ms. Dubeck clarified that ‘[n]o expenses incurred relating to this matter [including the investigation and prosecution of Mr. Trump] have been paid from funds that the Office received through federal grant programs,'” the complaint states.

The Manhattan DA’s office says it participated in three grant programs: the Stop Violence Against Women Act Program, for which it receives $50,000 a year; the Victim and Witness Assistance Grant Program, for which it receives $583,111.04 annually during its current grant period; and the Justice Assistance Grant, for which it received $204,730 for a period between Oct. 1, 2020, to Sept. 30, 2024, according to the letter.

Trump's tale of crying Manhattan court employees was 'absolute BS,' law enforcement source says

Former President Trump’s claim to a Fox News anchor that New York court employees were “crying” and apologizing for his arraignment on felony charges is “absolute BS” and doesn’t remotely resemble what took place, a law enforcement source familiar with the details of what transpired that day told Yahoo News.

“Zero,” said the source when asked how much truth there was to Trump’s colorful account. “There were zero people crying. There were zero people saying ‘I’m sorry.’”

Trump offered his version of events in an interview with the Fox News host Tucker Carlson that aired Tuesday night.

Just more proof that Jordan's actions are not legitimate oversight...

You're supposedly conducting oversight about funding and not questioning the DA or Mayor?

And some other regular people who have no information about the funding?

But your battling llike hell to interview a resigned special prosecutor from the trump investigation?

Keep on Keeping on Jim Jordan....would you like some more rope to hang yourself with? 🤣

Jim Jordan Releases Initial Witness List for GOP Hearing, But Bragg Isn’t on It

Also not mentioned is whether Bragg — who on Tuesday sued Jordan and the committee to stop its outside scrutiny of his Trump probe — will be called as a witness. Others, such as Mayor Eric Adams, were also not named.

A Jordan spokesman did not immediately respond to questions about whether Bragg or other witnesses might be called for the hearing, which Jordan said would focus on how Bragg’s policies “have led to an increase in violent crime and a dangerous community for New York City residents.”

The panel’s top Democrat, Jerrold Nadler of Manhattan, and other Democrats will also attend the hearing and challenge GOP questioning, a Nadler spokesman said Wednesday.

Has anyone on the conservative side here noticed that the Manhattan DA's office doesn't receive much federal funding?

Less than $700k dollars a year

This is just political grandstanding at the expense of women, victims, and witnesses

3 Federal Funding Grants
Stop Violence Against Women Act Program, for which it receives $50,000 a year; the Victim and Witness Assistance Grant Program, for which it receives $583,111.04 annually during its current grant period; and the Justice Assistance Grant, for which it received $204,730 for a period between Oct. 1, 2020, to Sept. 30, 2024

Manhattan DA, Jim Jordan clash over murder rates in Ohio, N.Y. after Trump indictment
Monroe Trombly, The Columbus Dispatch
Wed, April 12, 2023 at 10:43 AM EDT·3 min read

A spokesperson for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg on Monday took a swipe at U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan, saying the conservative lawmaker should be focused on violent crime in his own backyard rather than 500 miles away.

"If Chairman Jordan truly cared about public safety, he could take a short drive to Columbus, Dayton, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Akron or Toledo in his home state, instead of using taxpayer dollars to travel hundreds of miles out of his way," they said.

In their statement on Monday, the aide to Bragg said Manhattan had a lower murder rate than Columbus, which is near the district Jordan represents.

In 2022, Columbus had more homicides per 100,000 people (15.4) than New York City (5.1). Between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31 of last year, 140 people were killed in Ohio's capital city, compared to 433 in New York City, which has at least eight times as many people as Columbus.
