This week on The New Irregular, was the situation that Donald Trump’s arrest would occur as early as this week merely a delusion created by the previous president?
Manhattan District Lawyer Alvin Bragg’s basic counsel made an necessary level in a letter of reply to Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH), who had earlier demanded paperwork and testimony referring to Bragg’s investigation into alleged hush-money funds Trump organized for adult-film actress Stormy Daniels.
The letter notes that Congress made this request “solely after Donald Trump created a false expectation that he could be arrested the subsequent day and his attorneys reportedly urged you to intervene. Neither reality is a reputable foundation for Congressional inquiry.”
