.ManhattanDA Alvin Bragg dropped his challenge to the subpoena of a former NY County prosecutor, offering House Republicans a win in their investigation of criminal charges against Donald Trump. “Bragg caved. Jim_Jordan won,” JudiciaryGOP tweeted.
The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office on Friday withdrew its appeal of the subpoena, which sought testimony from former New York County prosecutor Mark Pomerantz regarding his involvement in Trump’s case. Bragg initially sued to block the subpoena, accusing House Republicans of interfering with a local investigation.The withdrawal comes one day after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit granted an administrative stay to block the subpoena until further notice.
Chairman Jim Jordan subpoenaed Pomerantz on April 6 due to his involvement in the investigation into Trump’s finances and his alleged hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels. Pomerantz led that inquiry before resigning last year over Bragg’s initial reluctance to move forward with the case. Jordan issued the subpoena after requesting Pomerantz and former Manhattan Special Assistant District Attorney Carey Dunne testify before the Judiciary Committee voluntarily, which the former attorney declined. In addition to his testimony, Jordan is also seeking access to any documents related to Pomerantz’s work while in office.
