“Your conclusory claim that our constitutional oversight responsibilities will interfere with law enforcement is misplaced and unconvincing,” the trio of Republican lawmakers said in their eight-page letter.

“As a threshold matter, whether your office is, in fact, fairly enforcing the law or abusing prosecutorial discretion to engage in a politically motivated indictment of a former President is a serious matter that … implicates significant federal interests,” the group added.

The GOP lawmakers’ request for Bragg’s testimony came in response to Trump’s claim last weekend that he could be arrested in the Manhattan probe as soon as Tuesday.

The Republicans should stop whining.

They should do a thorough investigation of that individual.

They might discover some "helpful" information that may persuade him to return to his lane.

It's the Congressmen who have wandered out of their lane. They're not omnipotent and have no business interfering with a District Attorney investigation.

Bragg is in his lane. AG for the state of NY.
 
Given their total ineptness at actually governing they have nothing better to do with their time. You don't expect them to deal with immigration, crime and inflation do you? That's really tough stuff to deal with.

You may want to familiarize yourself with the terms 'jurisdiction' and 'separation of powers.' When you're done with that, look up 'federalism.'

Borderline? Its obstruction of justice.
 
Have you noticed how the Republicans here hardly ever participate in all the threads I create about religious people raping little kids in real life?

Have you noticed how the Republicans here never criticize Republicans when they want to flex their CENTGOV muscles and go huge government and invade on local jurisdictions?

That sounds like something John Gotti would say.

Then that individual should do a thorough investigation of the Republican congressmen.

I'm guessing he'll find a lot more 'helpful' information than they will.
 
Bragg does not work for the federal government. Any oversight would have to come from NY.

They apparently don't know or don't care that they are just making fools of themselves.

He is the district attorney for New York City.

The attorney general for the state of New York is a lady, who also hates DJT.

When will Ohio investigate Gym Jordan for failing to report the sexual abuse of his wrestlers?
