"Who the hell does Alvin Bragg think he is?"

BAIER: “Meantime, you have got the Manhattan District Attorney now suing the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. He was on earlier, Chairman Jordan. Let’s listen.”

Jordan: “You have crossed a line that never should have happened. One of the pieces of legislation we expect to bring forward real quickly from our committee is legislation if you are going to do something like this, you at least have to remove that case to federal court. You don’t try it in some local court. This is a huge issue for the country and everyone sees it.”

BAIER: “Marc, what do you think?”

THIESSEN: “Alvin Bragg said that Jim Jordan needs to stay in his lane. Who does Alvin Bragg think he is to tell the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, a congressional committee, whose job it is to investigate and have supervision over the judicial system, not to investigate the weaponization of the judicial system against a political candidate? I mean, it’s just mind-boggling that he would take this step. But, again, he is the first guy to ever indict a sitting president, so it’s not surprising.”

BAIER: “Yet, Democrats are saying, listen, it is unique for the Judiciary Committee to be going down this road.”

MANCHESTER: “Yeah, Democrats are saying and Alvin Bragg is saying, look, the Judiciary Committee is using sort of political intimidation against Alvin Bragg. But, you know, we talk about the term ‘unique.’ I think this is a unique situation all the way around. And just going forward, look, I mean, I think Alvin Bragg, even critics of Donald Trump would say he has a weak case. So this probably adds a bit of a more — another distraction into it.”

BAIER: “Josh?”

HOLMES: “Yeah, I mean, you bring the most political charges in at least a generation and you are surprised to see politics played on the other side. This is not anything that Alvin Bragg couldn’t see coming a mile away.”
