McCarthy calls for House investigations as Republicans slam potential Trump indictment
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Saturday said he would direct House committees to investigate the Manhattan district attorney's potential prosecution of former President Donald Trump.
Trump on Saturday predicted on Truth Social that he would be arrested next week in the probe over his handling of a hush-money payment during his 2016 presidential campaign, prompting a slew of Republican allies to express their outrage. McCarthy said the Manhattan DA’s move would be “an outrageous abuse of power by a radical DA who lets violent criminals walk as he pursues political vengeance against President Trump,” and said that he is “directing relevant committees to immediately investigate if federal funds are being used to subvert our democracy by interfering in elections with politically motivated prosecutions.” Rep. Chip Roy said an indictment of the former president would be “politically-motivated” — a symptom of what Roy called a “politicized ‘justice’ system that will be (is being) weaponized against ALL Americans.” https://www.yahoo.com/news/mccarthy-calls-house-investigations-republicans-165543726.html This from the party of law and order.
