On Thursday, we shared that the House Judiciary Committee and its chairman, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) “is ‘seriously weighing’ the possibility of issuing subpoenas to Bragg and two former prosecutors from his office” over the investigation and indictment of former President Donald Trump over hush money payments connected with an alleged affair with Stormy Daniels.

My colleague Susie Moore wrote:

Jordan joined Fox News Host Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures” to discuss the matter, noting that Bragg has conceded he used federal funds in his investigation and the charges involve a federal election.

Later on Thursday, according to The Hill, the Committee began issuing those subpoenas:

The request comes the day after Jordan issued a subpoena to Mark Pomerantz, who resigned from the DA’s office about a year ago over disagreements with Bragg over the Trump case.

RedState covered the resignations in February 2022 of two prosecutors from Bragg’s office, Pomerantz and Carey Dunne.

Now, the Committee has announced it’s moving forward with more investigation into Bragg’s misconduct, by inviting the Senior Counsel for the New York District Attorney’s Office, Michael Colangelo, for a “transcribed interview”:

The Hill report continues:

House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) expanded his probe into the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office Friday, asking to speak with one of the leading prosecutors in the inquiry into former President Trump’s hush money dealings.

The letter to Matthew Colangelo, a former Justice Department attorney, asks for his correspondence with the DA’s Office prior to joining the probe now led by District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D).

“You had previously served in senior positions in the U.S. Department of Justice and the New York Attorney General’s Office, both of which had competing investigations related to President Trump. Given your history of working for law-enforcement entities that are pursuing President Trump and the public reporting surrounding your decision to work for the New York County District Attorney’s Office, we request your cooperation with our oversight in your personal capacity,” Jordan wrote.

The letter asks Colangelo to supply any documents detailing “that Office’s motivation for or interest in hiring you” and his “personal motivation for or interest in working for that Office.”

If and when there’s another move with subpoenas from the Committee, we’ll keep you posted with an update.
