Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is fighting back over Republicans attempting to interfere in his office's investigation of Donald J. Trump. Bragg is suing House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan over what the lawsuit describes as a "transparent campaign to intimidate and attack" the district attorney and interfere in his office's case against the one-term twice impeached former President.

The New York Times reports:

The 50-page suit, filed in federal court in the Southern District of New York, accuses Mr. Jordan of a "brazen and unconstitutional attack" on the prosecution of Mr. Trump and a "transparent campaign to intimidate and attack" the district attorney, Alvin L. Bragg. Mr. Bragg last week unveiled 34 felony charges against Mr. Trump that stem from the former President's attempts to cover up a potential sex scandal during and after the 2016 presidential campaign.

Lawyers for Mr. Bragg are seeking to bar Mr. Jordan and his congressional allies from enforcing a subpoena sent to Mark F. Pomerantz, who was once a leader of the district attorney's Trump investigation and who later wrote a book about that experience. Mr. Pomerantz resigned early last year after Mr. Bragg, just weeks into his first term in office, decided not to seek an indictment of Trump at that time.

The Ohio Republican is trying to obstruct justice:

Last month, Mr. Jordan, in his role as the House Judiciary Committee chairman, sent a letter with two Republican colleagues that demanded the district attorney's office provide communications, documents and testimony about Mr. Bragg's investigation of Mr. Trump. And after Mr. Bragg's prosecutors last week unveiled the charges against Mr. Trump, Mr. Jordan issued the subpoena to Mr. Pomerantz seeking to compel a closed-door deposition.

Pomerantz won't help Jim. He was frustrated with Bragg for not bringing charges earlier. As the outlet notes, in Pomerantz's book, he described Trump's actions as plainly criminal.

UPDATE:

Jordan responded, suggesting that Trump was indicted for "no crime" despite facing 34 charges.
