On Thursday, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Republican Jim Jordan of Ohio, reportedly issued a subpoena to a former prosecutor with the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office.
This individual had worked on the investigation into hush money payments made by former President Trump.
This action takes a nascent investigation into the office of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D), which began shortly after Trump predicted that he would be arrested in connection with the investigation, to a new level.
It also comes at a time when Jordan has stated that he is considering issuing a subpoena to Bragg.
After receiving a letter asking him to discuss his departure from the office after conducting the investigation into Trump, Mark Pomerantz was served with a subpoena so that he may testify before the committee.
He then discusses a book written by Pomerantz on efforts to prosecute Trump, as well as media appearances made to promote the matter. He concludes by stating that he will not be voting for Trump.
Pomerantz walked away from his role as an investigator on Bragg’s Trump case because of their divergent perspectives on the president’s legal situation around a year ago.
On March 22, following an announcement from Trump the previous month that he expected to be arrested in connection with the hush money investigation, Jordan sent initial testimony requests to Pomerantz and Carey Dunne, a former Manhattan special assistant district attorney who also resigned from Bragg’s Trump investigation around the same time as Pomerantz.
The deadline for complying with the subpoena is April 20, and an earlier letter from the committee suggests that the panel wants all documents and correspondence he maintains that are related to the probe.

Although I generally agree with Mr. Jordan’s attitude towards this whole circus, I wonder, if strategically he might need to cool his jets. It’s obvious to the entire world what is going on. The problem is, what arena do you use to aire grievences that would prove effective. I wonder if Congress is the appropriate place at this time. We’ve all seen the clown show before (i.e. Pelosie and henchmen chasing lies all around, to no end but create a bunch of comotion. I wonder, if doing the same thing that the “get Trump” crew have failed to do, might make all of the rest of ourselves look like fools as well. We must let this thing play out in the areana that the left has chosen. Trust me, they are soo blood thirsty and self rightous, they are all running around like a pack of blind dogs in a meathouse. So, let us all cautiously wait and watch as this unfolds. The longer it goes on the deeper the hole is dug. And, guess what; rainy season is coming. And those holes fill up with water. Sad to say, but i think correct…… “these guys are dumber than we originally thought. Give them enough rope and they will hang themselves.
Given enough rope, they may indeed hang themselves, because as Lincoln commented, you can’t fool ALL of the people ALL of the time. Still, don’t forget Joseph Stalin, the mentor of these budding US Communists: ‘it doesn’t matter how the people vote. Who matters is the guy who COUNTS the votes’ (or words to that effect.
I like the logic behind what Rufus is saying.
