Manhattan DA accuses House Republicans of interfering with Trump probe by demanding documents -
In a six-page response Friday to the lawmakers sent hours after Mr. Bragg issued a formal indictment against Mr. Trump, Mr. Bragg’s general counsel Leslie Dubeck demanded that three Republican House committee chairmen withdraw their request that the prosecutor’s office turn over a trove of documents and communications related to the Trump investigation.
The letter was co-signed by House Oversight and Accountability Committee James Comer, Kentucky Republican, and Committee on House Administration Chairman Bryan Steil, Wisconsin Republican. The lawmakers told Mr. Bragg’s office in a second letter last weekend that contrary to the district attorney’s arguments, the prosecution of the former president exceeds state and local interests.
Republicans believe Mr. Bragg is abusing his office to politically target Mr. Trump, who is now the leading 2024 Republican presidential candidate. “As Committee Chairmen, you could use the stature of your office to denounce these attacks and urge respect for the fairness of our justice system and for the work of the impartial grand jury,” she wrote. “Instead, you and many of your colleagues have chosen to collaborate with Mr. Trump’s efforts to vilify and denigrate the integrity of elected state prosecutors and trial judges.”
