Why The House Committee may well have Constitutional authority to question Bragg

Those privileges include Equal Protection.

It is true that the NY County DA’s Office has taken-up a prosecution of a former President (and a current candidate for the Presidency) and that the very prosecution is seen as a political prosecution. (It seems to me that it is; but it’s an open question which Congress has a Constitutional right to look into since “equal protection” doesn’t allow for purely partisan political prosecutions).

You are grasping at thin air. Jordan does not have a leg to stand on.
 
Fed funding comes with possible oversight.....The strings attached are very long.....Looks like Bragg got his fat ass tangled-up in them.


And besides, it isn't Bragg himself [yet] who has been subpoenaed, it is a former assistant who has since written a book. So Bragg has no standing to intervene which is why the judge refused a TRO.
 
Not really.

That has nothing to do with Bragg’s improper partisan political misuse of the legal system.

He can be prosecuted while out of office. And I said nothing to the contrary, ever. So your bullshit spin is lacking any hint of merit. What else is new?

The point, Leftwhiner, is that Trump should not be singled out for prosecution on partisan politically motivated basis. Nobody should.

Trump is not being singled out. Just because you say it does not make it true. You have not provided one bit of proof.

Bragg doers have standing to prevent the assistant from giving out confidential information. Crooked Trump judges are nothing new.
 
They have no right to interfere in a active criminal prosecution. They have no right to subpoena Bragg.

They have every right to investigate misuse of office and corrupt interference in a national election as obviously, there is no one in the state who will police these people. Jordan needs to drop the hammer and have Bragg arrested and dragged to DC and questioned in shackles, then disbarred.
 
Under the United States Constitution Congress has the power to investigate and oversee the executive branch of government... which includes state attorneys general.... However the extent of Congress's power to question a state attorney general may depend on the circumstances and the purpose of the investigation.....
For example if Congress is conducting an investigation into a matter that falls under federal jurisdiction... such as a potential violation of federal law it may have the authority to question a state attorney general who is involved in that matter...
That would be Letitia James then.
It the civil case against Trump, and Trump was just deposed in that. So why isnt JIm Jordan going after Letita James?

But Alvin Bragg is a DA for the state of new york. Absolutely zilch to do with DoJ or the executive branch.
 
The Achilles Heel of Republicans is this compunction to always "fight fair" and be "good or real conservatives."

Only if you believe “fighting fair” includes

Substituting fake electors
Filing frivolous lawsuits
Bullying local election officials
Asking the Vice President to overturn the States
Storming the Capitol

Just because they say it does not make it true. They have to prove it. Jim Jordan tries it and he should be arrested as a terrorist.
 
Substituting fake electors
Legal alternate electors which Pence had every just cause to consider.

Filing frivolous lawsuits
A democrat specialty like their two bogus impeachments.

Bullying local election officials
Boo.

Asking the Vice President to overturn the States
Expecting Pence to do his constitutional job like a man.

Storming the Capitol
Protesters defending themselves from shock/bang/smoke bombs and FBI infiltrators and instigators.
