Manhattan DA and Trump prosecutor set to appear before Congress on July 12, AP source says

Trump Hush Money
Posted

WASHINGTON (AP) — Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is scheduled to testify before Congress on July 12, a day after former President Donald Trump's sentencing in his hush money trial.

That is according to a source familiar with the matter who was granted anonymity to disclose a date not yet made public.

Bragg is set to appear before the House Select Committee on weaponization alongside Michael Colangelo, the former high-ranking Justice Department official hired by Bragg in 2022 to lead the Trump investigation.

The two men will face what's likely to be a hostile, Republican-controlled hearing where the chairman, Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio has accused them of having conducted a "political prosecution" in the case against the former president.

I learned something new in her reporting and am inspired by the work I AM NEXT is doing to make a difference. I think you will be too!
