Jim Jordan Says Alvin Bragg’s Case Against Trump Is 2024 Election ‘Interference’

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) alleged that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s case against former President Donald Trump is tantamount to “election interference” in the 2024 race as polls show Trump is a leading candidate among Republicans.

“We hear a lot from the left about election interference and protecting democracy. On some level, doesn’t this kind of fall into that folder?” Fox Business host Jimmy Failla asked Jordan in an interview.

Jordan, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, responded in the affirmative. “Totally. Alvin Bragg used federal tax dollars to go after a former president, to indict a former president for no crime, interferes with the federal election,” Jordan said.

“And then we want to talk with someone who hasn’t worked there in a year. And what’s he do? He sues us,” he added, referring to Bragg’s lawsuit against House Judiciary Republicans.

The Epoch Times has contacted Bragg’s office for comment. Bragg’s office previously asserted that it is Jordan and House Republicans that are interfering in the DA’s probe and case against the former president, seeking relief via an emergency restraining order that was rejected by a district judge earlier this week until at least a hearing can be held.
