I predict this will backfire badly on Jordan. Mark Pomeranz quit the Manhattan district attorney’s office, because he felt that Alvin Bragg was not aggressive enough and prosecuting Donald Trump. ---Curt Anderson, one month ago
Legal expert: Jim Jordan’s demand for Manhattan prosecutor to testify just backfired on him
Former prosecutor Mark Pomerantz hit back after he was subpoenaed by Rep. Jim Jordan
"What I do not respect is the use of the committee's subpoena power to compel me to participate in an act of political theater," Pomerantz said. "We are gathered here because Donald Trump's supporters would like to use these proceedings to attempt to obstruct and undermine the criminal case pending against him, and to harass, intimidate and discredit anyone who investigates or charges him."
"While I am certain I broke no laws, I am not required to answer questions if my answers might be used against me in a criminal prosecution," he said, adding: "It gives me no joy to invoke my legal rights, but I am glad that the law allows me not to cooperate with this performance of political theater."
