Legal Battle Brews Between Manhattan DA and House Republican Over Intimidation Claims.

Lawyers for House Republicans and the Manhattan district attorney’s office will appear before a federal judge over a subpoena seeking testimony about the indictment of former President Donald Trump. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg sued Jim Jordan, the chair of the Republican-led House Judiciary Committee, to block a congressional subpoena to a former prosecutor, alleging the lawmakers are engaged in a “transparent campaign to intimidate and attack” the DA’s office. Bragg asked the judge for a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction to block this subpoena and any future subpoenas to him or other current or former prosecutors.
