Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, Jr. fired off a warning shot to congressional Republicans on Thursday, telling them to stop interfering with his office’s ongoing secret grand jury considering criminal charges against former President Donald Trump.
In a letter, Bragg’s office told three Republican chairmans of congressional committees that their recent demand for details about the Trump investigation are “an unlawful incursion into New York’s sovereignty.”
The letter was addressed to Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee; Rep. Bryan Steil (R-WI), who leads the Committee on House Administration, and Rep. James Comer Jr., (R-KY), who heads up the House Oversight Committee.
