Manhattan Prosecutor makes MAJOR MOVE against ILLEGAL Republican Stunt - Meidas Touch



DA Alvin Bragg has filed a lawsuit against Jim Jordan and others involved in the unlawful effort to perform so-called oversight related to Bragg’s investigation of Donald Trump. Bragg’s lawsuit calls out Jordan’s actions as a total overreach of Congressional power in an attempt to win political points, and Harry explains why he thinks this is a strong case.

But at the same time the investigative powers of Congress are generally deep and broad. And have to wonder if the courts (federal courts anyway) are going to buy into the 'separation of powers', 'states rights', 'mind your own business' line of thinking. We'll see what the courts want to do with this - but my suspicion is, probably nothing.

His understatement is overwhelming.

And gym jordan is a singularly impressive totally worthless hunk of taxpayer trash. People who trump loves who voted for jordan should be ashamed of themselves. But that would require self awareness, contemplation and love of freedom, democracy. So. No shame, just false bravado about patriotism and nonsense and tshirts from faux.

Meanwhile we are another day closer to your big debt ceiling fuck up kevin. What are you and your brilliant committee chairmen going to do about it?

Poke me in the eye with a flagpole but Kevin, Mitch McConnell will probably bail your sorry ass out. Just a prediction from an old veteran who is way past being sick and fucking tired of moron conservative, ignorant, freedom hating bullshit.
