Former prosecutor and legal expert Glenn Kirschner believes that Jim Jordan's attacks and harassment of Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg are clear violations of the law. If we're going by the letter of the law, then Kirschner is 100% correct. The problem is that Jordan will never be held accountable, much like the rest of his past, and we're left with little recourse. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

According to former prosecutor and legal expert Glenn Kirchner, it appears that Jim Jordan pretty much almost definitely broke the law and not just New York state law, but possibly violated the Constitution with his efforts to have the House Republican party interfere with Alvin Bragg's ongoing prosecution. At this point, we can't even call it an investigation anymore. It's a forthcoming prosecution of Donald Trump. Here's what Kirchner said recently on his legal podcast. Under our law, a person is guilty of obstructing governmental administration in the second degree when that person intentionally prevents or attempts to prevent a public servant from performing an official function by means of intimidation, physical force, or interference. That is precisely what Jim Jordan has done and is doing. So Jim Jordan, of course, as the chair of the, uh, house Judiciary Committee is still pressuring Alvin Bragg to turn over information to come and testify.

And Bragg's office has pushed back Last week in a letter, they accused Jordan of acting, uh, with, uh, basically unlawful political interference, is the phrase that they used. But Jim Jordan's not stopping. Jim Jordan says this, the New York County District Attorney's unprecedented prosecutorial conduct requires oversight to inform the consideration of potential legislative for reforms that would if an active insulate current and former, or presidents from such politically motivated state and local prosecutions. So what he's trying to say is, I want to make it to where no former president can be prosecuted by state or local authorities, which of course is outside the legal possibility for Jim Jordan because it's, as Kirchner points out unconstitutional. It would, uh, be a violation of the 10th Amendment as the federal government cannot interfere with a state level prosecution. So Jim Jordan says that, Hey, listen, I'm just trying to put pressure on brag because I want to see if I need to draft legislation protecting every former president that ever existed or will ever exist. Kirchner points out that, yeah, the 10th Amendment basically says you can't do that. Like, I don't know if you've heard of this thing, uh, Jordan called the Constitution, but it exists and it exists to protect us from tyrants like yourself and of course, Donald Trump. But Jim Jordan thinks he's got an ace up his sleeve, and last week made what I've called the dumbest decision he's ever made in his political career. And he subpoenaed Mark Pomerance, the former prosecutor with the Manhattan DA's office, who famously resigned a year ago after he said Bragg refused

To come forward with indictments against Donald Trump for potential financial crimes. Pomerance has said that he and Sivan, the former prosecutor, uh, along with Carrie Dunn, the other prosecutor who also resigned, we, we had the indictments written up, like they were literally ready to be filed against Donald Trump. Brad came in, decided not to do it, and Jim Jordan, for some reason thinks it's a good idea to now have pomerance come into Congress and testify about that. Like, Hey, mark, come on in and tell us about all those other crimes that Donald Trump didn't get prosecuted for, that you think he should have been prosecuted for.
