Political DA Alvin Bragg was smacked down pretty hard by a New York judge Wednesday, telling his office there is no legal mechanism to avoid accountability and testimony before congress.
The DA office took federal funds to prosecute Donald Trump, the DA office is interfering in a federal election, the DA office has openly stated their intentions are politically motivated, and therefore the DA office has no standing to try and avoid federal legislative scrutiny.
As Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil clarified to Bragg’s team, she has no standing to block a legislatively authorized congressional subpoena.
New York – […] “The sole question before the Court at this time is whether Bragg has a legal basis to quash a congressional subpoena that was issued with a valid legislative purpose. He does not,” Vyskocil wrote in her decision Wednesday.
Bragg, a Democrat, has accused Jordan of pursuing the subpoena to score political points while supporting Trump, a Republican. Vyskocil said the dispute appeared political, but said that did not impact her decision.
“In our federalist system, elected state and federal actors sometimes engage in political dogfights,” Vyskocil wrote in her order, noting that Bragg is an elected official. “Bragg complains of political interference in the local DANY case, but Bragg does not operate outside of the political arena.”
“Jordan, in turn, has initiated a political response to what he and some of his constituents view as a manifest abuse of power and nakedly political prosecution, funded (in part) with federal money, that has the potential to interfere with the exercise of presidential duties and with an upcoming federal election,” Vyskocil wrote. “The Court does not endorse either side’s agenda.”
The subpoena to Pomerantz demands his appearance before the Judiciary Committee on Thursday. It is unclear if he will appear. A spokesperson for Bragg said Wednesday, “We respectfully disagree with the District Court’s decision and are seeking a stay pending appeal.”
Vyskocil denied Bragg’s request for a stay Wednesday night. (read more)
Older Americans understand the concept of affiliation to the Constitution.
Dopey Mark Levin is working hard to sell the premise that all our problems can be solved by suing somebody somewhere. Mark, I guess, slept through the 2020 election.
But we have tragically, most tragically descended into fascism. The State is god.
This Alvin Bragg scumbag is a fascist, who most fervently believes that anything done by the State is good, and any opposition to the State is bad.
America is better. The Constitution is better. Act accordingly.
Exactly So!!! Amen! and Amen! Bragg and the entire Team involved all KNEW they had no Legal or Constitutional Standing.
They’ve had the bit in their teeth for Far too LONG but they had not EVER lost sight and awareness of their own Malicious Conduct in that office, in virtually ever single case they were involved in, for YEARS.
He thought he was THE Biggest Steamroller that existed!
No telling how many of his Cases are each a manifest example of his Deliberate and willful Treason against Law and Constitution.
100% in agreement. The question remains, how do we get our country back?
End corporate lobbying.
Oversight over the intelligence community.
Done
cease funding our corporate enemies
And sued in jurisdictions outside of DC, NY etc.
A verdict against a government agent puts that agent’s pension in jeopardy.
It’s akin to tenured teachers. It’s utter crap that you can do illegal activity at a government job and keep your pension ala Lois Lerner, Andy McCabe and James Comey.
Bring ’em up on charges in Marion, Levy, Citrus, or Dixie Counties in Florida! I can guarantee those locales would be the antithesis of a jury from Zoo York or The District Of Criminality!
“To consider judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions is a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy.” – Thomas Jefferson
‘When once a Republic is corrupted, there is no possibility of remedying any of the growing evils but by removing the corruption and restoring its lost principles; every other correction is either useless or a new evil.’ – Thomas Jefferson
We have no leverage as the elections are sus and the DOJ, judges and prosecutors work in tandem. The black mold of selfish greed cannot be removed by men. This is why we pray and get right with God so his eventual angel of judgment passes over us. He will tread the nation… you can count on it.
a federal employ should not be allowed to plead the 5th in cases of abuse to federal law.
Yes, the right to not incriminate applies to the individual. The office can’t claim a right to not incriminate itself, thereby depriving the public of its services on our behalf. If the individual has to take the 5th, it should result in the loss of that office and its pension.
Well, heres SOMETHING, and sorry I lost the link to thid, when my previoud phone died.
Elected Officials above a certain level MUST in order to serve, take out and maintain a BOND, so that if they are successfully sued for any action in their official duty, the bond pays the judgement.
So, you prepare a case, with evidence showing an elected official HAS, in their official duties, violated a State or Federal law.
You don’t file in court, instead you go to the BONDING company (there are only TWO in the country that offer such bonds.
You file your case with them, have to serve the elected official with notice, they have two weeks to respond, and the bonding company investigates.
If the bonding company findd your case to be valid, they withdraw the Bond.
Without the Bond, the elected official has to resign, as they can not serve without a bond, and once the one company revokes their bond, no way the other will issue them one.
In Az. (and when I read this it was under Gov. Ducey) the State issues a “blanket bond” that covers ALL such public officials EXCEPT that County Sheriffs, being Constitutional officers, HAVE to have their own bond.
The beauty of this is you aren’t relying on the Courts, which may be biased, nor are you having to have lawyers and go to Court.
IIRC, the only difficulty the lady had (who DID this successfully) was in serving notice to the elected official she got booted from office; the lady official avoided her for 2-3 weeks, and she finally served her AT a public meeting.
I got the link, from s posting of another treeper here, but then as I live in Az. I didn’t pursue it personally.
Still it is an example of how one person CAN “take on” an elected official and get them booted for violating the law, and worth pursueing.
Its like an “achilles heel”.
You referring to this?

Not sure how successful the initiative was/is. It kicked off as a way to combat school board officials during the Covid ridiculousness.
Agree. End corporate lobbying.
If you are not eligible to vote, you may not contribute funds, time,etc to anyone running for office.
That is just a start.
And of course you have unlimited litigation funds?
Not necessary as their is no need or Constitutional allowance for keeping corruption in the country. It is supposed to be removed. Completely.
Any lobbying is easy to remove by declaring that Lobbyists, their companies, and their politicians are in fact giving and taking bribes which is sedition and conspiracy to commit treason, which has but one allowed punishment.
The Constitution clearly lists the ALLOWED federal alphabet agencies as it lists ALL limitation of federal government clearly and concisely. They are not listed means they are not allowed. That we are robbed with threat of violence at federal gunpoint is enough to warrant their complete rem0ovals under treason as well.
Treason clearly covers ALL the corruption and broken oaths of office to uphold and defend the US Constitution. That you let them do it and tell others that they can do nothing is my problem as well because it allows evil to spread and consume whole scale.
They are all traitors. Period.
“Who will govern the governors? There is only one force in the nation that can be depended upon to keep the government pure and the governors honest, and that is the people themselves. They alone, if well informed, are capable of preventing the corruption of power, and of restoring the nation to its rightful course if it should go astray. They alone are the safest depository of the ultimate powers of government.” – Thomas Jefferson
There’s your biggest problem, and the reason we’re here. The greedy, shortsighted public ratio is too great to effectively fight back. Indeed, they support and fund the tyranny.
Each of those agents must be held PERSONALLY ACCOUNTABLE (no “insurance” paid by the taxpayer) for every lousy, illegal deed they have committed, every time they have violated the Constitution.
End government grants for hiring. That would also reduce the amount of people on unemployment when the grant money dries up and the globalists ‘cut costs’ to ‘realign’ their business model towards more ‘profitability’ and start the layoffs. Covid grants are a good example.
Eliminate the democrat party and all the communists in the country. Force them to follow the constitution.
That’s what fascist do, we need to “win” over Dem voters……………..by getting better at collecting ballots – they changed the game we need to do it better.
Go look at turnouts for off-cycle (not the presidential) elections. They are dismal. That’s how there is D governors in solid red states like KY and LA.
But, we cannot win against Judges who cover for illegal acts of the Democrats.
Obamacare screwed with our success in states like those. The public warmed up to the health care freebies and decided a fraudulent D with bennies was better than an honest R promising to reverse them.
If we can’t effectively attack and remove our immoral invaders then no remedy is possible. The constitution doesn’t give us much other than a 2A once election processes fail. Once we’re at 2A stage it’s already a civil war.
Beseech the Holy Spirit to take the darkness out of all men’s hearts and replace it with the Light of Christ, or standby for Judgement Day.
Malachi: “Surely the day is coming; it will burn like a furnace. All the arrogant and every evildoer will be stubble, and the day that is coming will set them on fire. . . . Not a root or a branch will be left to them. But for you who revere my name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its rays. And you will go out and frolic like well-fed calves”
Typically when a government has gone this far from a Constitution and gotten so big, the only way back is through civil war. I hope I’m wrong.
I’m not sure I’d say Civil War is the way or the remedy, but consequences surely are–and the problem is that ONE SIDE, both as a group and as individuals, has NOT FACED CONSEQUENCEs…yet. Consequences come in many forms, some of which involve violence and some of which do not, but all of them must be painful or else they can’t really be called consequences.
You don’t need a war….there’s 535 of THEM and millions of US.
Either represent US instead of corporations or walk to the Potomac.
We’re in it now. Kinetic warfare follows unless there’s intervention from an outside force choosing a side.
Unfortunately, I fear we are at the point in time that we get our Country back the same way we got it to begin with
Nice little article on the subject from a former frogman:
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS: HOW AMERICA’S CITIES MAY EXPLODE IN VIOLENCE
https://www.americanpartisan.org/2020/05/when-the-music-stops-how-americas-cities-may-explode-in-violence/
Gunpowder and rope. Cigarettes and blindfolds.
Too quick and easy. Make them all do hard labor until they keel over.
Start with the basics.. answer this question, what is a country? I would say a sovereign nation. Seems to me we lost that fundamental characteristic. I personally would love to see every illegal alien given the boot. Every one.
Trump promises to do just that.
Who is worse, the aliens or the gatekeepers who opened them up for them? The US is behind in execution justice by the thousands.
Push back whenever you are faced with extra-governmental edicts in your local community. Show up at town council or city mayor’s meetings. Get on the list of approved speakers at those meetings and offer your approval or opposition to their actions. If you have school-aged children attend school board meetings and let them know you want your kids educated not indoctrinated.
Resistance begins at home. To take on the federal leviathan is too large a task for most citizens/patriots.
Begin like a pebble tossed in a pond and witness the results as your ripples of discontent expand.
Always remember, there are more of us than there are of them.
they say keep voting, i always have but now i call bullshit. not going to vote our way out of this.
That may be your answer Mr. VB, but I think that if I don’t vote my perspective the opposition wins twice: 1) their candidate wins and 2) there is no longer any debate in the market-place of ideas.
With extreme violence against traitors.
I’d love to see another path, but I don’t. The psychopathic megalomaniacal Communists on the other side simply have no mechanism by which to reflect on their actions and change. They’re driven to control the way we’re driven to breathe.
Do we address the problems or symptoms? Symptoms are what we are discussing, it is never ending and will eventually end our nation. We will become so divided and weak we will have no strength to fight. The wisdom of our founding fathers was to follow patterns and reverse what is harmful.
Our government was created for a Godly people, believers who wanted peace and continuity. It will not work with force alone. Force is a dictators way, power is the RESULT of righteousness.
No, we can muse and squabble for as long as there are two who disagree but the problem is we reject God in every cubical of our country. Every business, town, school, city, government entity, most families never cracked open the manual. You think their kids have a chance?
Musk says a parent should be in prison for allowing a mutilation with their child. I agree but, was there ever a discussion on the manual in that home? You see, parenting is about preparing a child for a fallen world not to comply with it. I don’t even see churches working that field anymore.
Until God is number one….it’s all useless.
100!! Well said Pale.
Get rid of all government and start over. It has gotten too big.
With the exception of RON JOHNSON, Every Senator is Corrupt or Compromised because they are “ELECTED”.
Stop Electing FILTHY LIBERAL SENATORS. Any Senator could have put the Senate in Recess for DJT and Didn’t.
That exposed the FILTHY Uniparty. Mitch is the ENEMY of America. I hope he meets his maker soon, the Devil misses him. .
“America is better. The Constitution is better. Act accordingly.”
Yes! I read the Paul Revere letter Sundance posted yesterday. When caught and questioned by the British Revere straight up answers truthfully.
Amazing he wasn’t hogtied on the spot if not killed then and there.
Imagine a time period when men did the right thing at the right time. Perplexing, no matter of ideals, honesty and integrity ruled men. To a degree at least.
You will also note they had to struggle constantly with the prospect of ‘traitors in their midst’ aka C.I’s that were transmitting their words back to the Governor.
I cannot find your comment that referred to bonds for elected officials. But this should be the link to the concept you suggested. https://bondsforthewin.com/what-are-surety-bonds/
Yes, and betrayal of one’s conscience today is in vogue.
Very well said.
Dopey Mark Levin? Do you think Kari Lake is ‘dopey’?
What does Mark Levin have to do with Kari Lake?
They both are suing over the election results.
Mark Levin is “dopey” in that he’s a neocon who adamantly supports Biden’s war in Ukraine (which could lead to WW3) and supported Ted Cruz with his crazy rants against Trump in the 2015/16 Presidential primaries. Kari Lake is “dopey” if she thinks she can win a Senatorial campaign in corrupt Arizona, after what Maricopa County and the Courts got away with in 2022. Nothing has changed. In fact, it’s now even worse in AZ.
I do not actively schedule my time to listen to Levin, but if I am driving and flipping thru radio stations I will sometimes pause to listen to him, and on those very few occasions that I do he is often verbally fellating the DeSanctimonious dude for quite a length of time.
Levin is a shill, a bought and paid for presstitute like so many others who have dirtied and sullied themselves in this manner.
IMO if Kari Lake says she is running for AZ Senate and doesn’t fight the AZ governor theft then she is showing signs of the DC swamp, i.e. keep running for a different office until you win, instead of fighting for what is right. If she says she will still fight the theft and run for Senate, how much serious time can she devote to both. She needs to fight the election fraud all the way and not jump into another political race, else she’s no different than any other uniparty politician.
I gotta say
Well said!!
He isn’t anything. Except a money / power seeking wh###…one must have a thought process to have a label applied.
The Dems, the WEFies, the Government Bureaucracy is taxpayer money to sue/damage their opponents, who must defend themselves from their own pocket.
This is not an accident, this is the method.
The state is god only if federal judges say so
Levin would have an audience and success in court which is why Donald Trump had hired Michael Cohen as his lawyer. We’ve seen how far people like Roger Stone, Mike Flynn and the January 6th defendants got!
If he shows up, get the popcorn out. The Dems will go wild. Will it be a public or private session?
The Democrats WILL go wild. It’ll only be odd if they don’t.
The important question is if the Democrats will activate their Brown Shirts to run wild like Demons shrieking to scare the Priest from performing an Exorcism.
For us we have to stay strong and stand tall, because all the Demons shrieking is to make us afraid, show them they are wrong! Be brave and stand tall!
And Keep all the LORD God’s PRAYER COVER over us all, especially those at the Forefront of all this.
BREAK ALL the assignments of the demons that want to help them, and Set God’s Host of Warrior Angels in array on the tops of the buildings all surrounding the evil skunks the evil ones try to set loose.
SPIRITIUALY, like in the Old West when they knew a big gang of outlaws was coming to town to break some of their men out of jail to save them from a hanging, while part of the gang was going to go ahead and rob all the stores while they were there.
But the townspeople had BACKBONE and when the gang got in the middle of town, the townspeople poked their RIFLE BARRELS over the Facades of the building roofs at the outlaws – and gave all the outlaws a good OLD FASHIONED Frontier HOT SEAT!!!
Now that is what happened in Joshua 10:11 More of Israel’s enemies were killed by the hail stones thrown by the Lord than were killed by Joshua and his armies of men. And yes this was a Miracle, and not “just an ordinary storm with great timing” – because it was HIGHLY ACCURATE, and the Israelites didn’t suffer from the hail stones and lightening strikes!
So we can Pray and Decree for God’s Helps to defeat the enemies who are fighting to destroy America!
For the Founding Fathers tell us how they struggled to find the words for the Constitution, but it didn’t come to them until after they all prayed fervently, as they had done at the beginning of the assembling of the Constitutional Convention, and then after fervent prayer, the words just came flowing easily and all in the convention agreed without any further wrangling that the wording was Right, and Exactly perfect.
WE KNOW HE has Purpose for This Nation at THIS TIME, and He is with us if we seek Him and if we will Pray and will DECREE as HE gives us UNCTION, to pray for Wisdom and Cleverness – Sudden Rescues and Solutions, and such along with Divine Providence of the Equipment and supplies that we need for it, For He has done this EACH TIME that America has had a Great Fight on our hands, from our Birth in the Revolution and through Each Battle we have had since then. He is WITH US if we seek HIM FIRST and seek His Will and listen to Him and obey and follow His Commands and His Unctions. And HE WILL CONFIRM with DIVINE PROVISIONS.
He has done this in my personal life. SO I KNOW HE is STILL DOING THIS for AMERICA. If WE are allying ourselves TO HIM, in it.
So we should be prepared AS APPROPRIATE just as we have in past times, As it were, whether REAL or also in a Spiritual Sense, to have our WATCHMEN ON THE WALLS and the ROOFS, and with All Dedication and Prayer and with Hearts attuned to hear and discern to HIM.
We can make the enemies of our homeland FEAR what they cannot see, when they try to go running through our streets to Destroy everything they can and plunder all they can carry.
We can fill their hearts with Terror of them wanting to be CRIMINAL RAVAGERS who are LAWLESSLY on the Rampage!
If we seek the Lord and know we have sided HIM, that He may also side with us, as well.
The Lord Himself would not prevent Babylon from overtaking the northern kingdom of Israel once those Jews failed to heed his prophets year after year. If he did not spare his own chosen people he sure won’t spare this pagan country. The days of a moral few playing a role of the redeeming tentpole for the masses is ending. We will be sifted and the black mold isolated and purged.
The Bible clearly states he is no respecter of persons… the US means no more to him than any other greedy crowd anywhere else. It is we ourselves who are being challenged to righteousness, not the nation as an identity. He raises them up and takes them down.
No way does Pomerantz ever show up. He knows the Biden DOJ will never enforce a Republican Congressional subpeona. The regime has everything covered. The regime protects it
s own and they dont give a damn what it looks like to us!Congress can & should enforce it’s own subpoenas, DOJ is out of the picture.
“There can be no doubt as to the power of Congress, by itself or through its committees, to investigate matters and conditions relating to contemplated legislation. . . . Without the power to investigate—including of course the authority to compel testimony, either through its own processes or through judicial trial—Congress could be seriously handicapped in its efforts to exercise its constitutional function wisely and effectively.” (emphasis added) – see page 15 of court order denying Braggs request for TRO against Congress’ subpoena of Pomerantz
Use the cell in the basement.
Who approved and forwarded to Bragg’s office the federal funds for this NYC fiasco?
I believe all State and local law enforcement get federal funds. Not sure if there is any specific line item funds for prosecuting VSGDJT.
ANY time CONGRESS, in its official capacity, and so EITHER House OF Congress, Senate OR House goes to Court, the Speaker is the one who “signs the papers” as the ‘plaintiff’ representing Congress.
Bottom line, if going to Court to sue, request a Court order or subpoena, etc. its ALL “on” Speaker McCarthy.
This is how Ryan “hamstrung” Nunes; he refused to ‘sign off’ on subpoenas.
Just found your comment so I am posted to connect to the actual comment for all to read and understand.
https://bondsforthewin.com/what-are-surety-bonds/
All Congress has to do then is CUT OFF THE FINANCING to those agencies and Depts.
CONGRESS is hardly a Paper Tiger when it makes up it’s mind, and right now, the Dims are shedding MEMBERS like an old sick dog sheds his hair.
And the members leaving their party are not leaving CONGRESS, they are FLIPPING to GOP.
And right now, McConnell is in NO SHAPE to fight for the Dims.
This is a Great Time to do it.
The Dims are ALL being humiliated by the LAWLESSNESS of what Bragg has done. And multiplied other cases of INNOCENT PEOPLE being incarcerated for NO CRIME.
One police department arrested a BLIND MAN for having a CANE, bcz at first the arresting cops THOUGHT it was a Rifle. By the time they slapped CUFFS on a BLIND MAN, they KNEW IT WAS ONLY A WALKING CANE and arrested him anyway!
These guys could NOT be on thinner Ice than they are, now.
IIRC, the Dem officeholders switching parties (4, at last count) are all STATE legislators, however the point is still valid.
Kursin’ Sinalot, of Az ‘switched’ from Dem to Indie, but thats a special case.
Your point on McConnell, Thune has been groomed for years to replace mitch, and is probably already defacto minority leader.
If he does, he will take the 5th!
It will be Selma all over again lol
Not chance these NY worms will testify before congress and not mumble some 5th amendment bs about 50 times if they appear at all
They can be arrested for NOT giving the ANSWERS for what the DEPT they are in charge of IS DOING – they can be arrested for BREAKING THEIR OATH of OFFICE – For TREASON.
THEIR OATH is to NOT HARM the CONSTITUTION OR THE SOVEREIGN CITIZENS.
That isn’t TECHNICALLY the same as NOT having to testify against THEMSELVES. JOB PERFORMANCE HAS to be DIFFERENT, when they are DRAWING PAY as a Public Servant.
THIS is something they are very MUCH accountable for.
REGARDLESS of what a few Recent administrations have pulled with Unconstitutional new “regulations” which ARE NOT ABOVE the CONSTITUTION.
I would love to have them testify but I think pleading the 5th is likely. The difference is this guy has written a book so the hearing can be filled with his taking the 5th but they can use the time with excerpts written by him.
Flashback to a government official taking the 5th, still got paid, still got her pension, did criminal activity, abused her position.
To me, the transparent ‘tell’ that exposes the charade is the 5 minutes time limit per member.
You know how every time Jordan or Goudy has the witness “on the ropes and sweating” and is SEEMINGLY about to “go in for the kill” its “oh, my time has expired, Mr. Chairman!”
IF their goal for the hearings is “fact finding” and “getting to the truth”
WHY such short, self-imposed time limits?
Can you imagine such limits being imposed on the defence and prosecution when questioning witnesses in a criminal trial, or even on plaintiff and defence attourneys in a Civil trial?
Actually, you don’t HAVE to, because bizarrely thats what the Judge did, in the Kari Lake case, contesting the 2022 stolen election.
“Sorry, Mr. Perry Mason I know you were about to do your big reveal, and prove it was actually the witness that committed the murder, NOT your client but,…..your time is expired and the witness is excused.
I agree, Dutchman.
I’m tired of the theatrics. We’re a savvier crowd than we were when addressing the IRS targeting conservatives. We won’t be pacified with the dog and pony show they gave us for Benghazi.
It’s precisely why we’re pushing back on Ron DeSwampass as a candidate and why we supported, and still support, Donald J. Trump.
The perversion of our Justice System remains the thing that sticks in my craw the most.
I understand government overreach, have fought against it for decades.
Once they achieved a Dept of inJustice, peaceful resolution of what ails our nation became much more difficult. A Two Tiered Justice System cannot be tolerated by a free people. It removes our avenue to address corruption and injustice.
Corrupt agenda driven incompetent DA, doesn’t agree with a judge who is actually following the law. Now will appeal the judge’s decision, otherwise the Truth might have to be exposed.
why are our federal tax dollars going to any state district attys offices? if a state doesn’t have the revenue to fund their own district attorneys, the state must prioritize their spending and cut funding to something else.
They could start by cutting back on payment for Street mobs!
That would be a novel thing for them to do!!!
IF We, the People and our representative State Governments actually utilised the 10th amendment, WE could significantly cut down the bloated Federal Government and push back on Federal overreach.
And, the Federal Govt KNOWS in many cases it has no, NO Constitutiinal basis FOR its encroachment on those powers reserved to the States and the People.
So, it BRIBES the States and the People with Federal dollars, so that we won’t push back.
There are numerous examples; the FDA has no Constitutional authority to detirmine ANYTHING regarding healthcare, read the Constitution.
The FDA says certain meds are “Drs Rx only” and certain drugs are “controlled substances” (like Marajiuana).
Several States tell the Fed “FU” and “legalise” MJ and the Feds do nothing.
One Governor declares thru the State health Dept. that Ivermectine is “over the counter” in direct contradiction of Federal (FDA) regulations, and the Feds do NOTHING.
BECAUSE THEY CAN’T, and they KNOW it.
When the Fed “Gun free kill zone” law was passed, many focused on the twisting of the Commerce law used to pass it, but few noted the “out” the Feds wrote in, to keep it from being thrown out on 10th amendment grounds; it is NOT a MANDATE.
The legislation states that State Legislatures can “opt out” if they choose, and both Texas and Utah chose to leave it to individual School districts, and both HAVE districts with no kill zones.
Of coarse, such districts do not get the Federal funding intended to pay for the signs every 50′ dilineating the kill zone, etc. which is an example of the Federal $ carrot.
And, it is the threat of WITHHOLDING Fed $’s that keeps States from excercising Federalism: States reject the voting machines, they “lose” 100’s of millions of $, of Federal funds used to buy and maintain the machines.
Why are we paying any monies, due to threat of government violence against US, when they claim that ability to tax under the illegal 16th “amendment” that they passed and placed upon the people without a Convention of States (Article V) in 1913?
It is illegal and they owe the citizens trillions.
The USA debt clock is totally upon and owed by the politicians, their special donors, the unelected bureaucracies, and their global (U)niparty handlers. It is most definitely NOT the people’s as they are charged to take loans to give the very country they are forced to take loans from AID!
Taxation is theft and forced slavery. This is treason by the corrupted government and they need removal, even now, because they refuse to fix the corruption (SHOCKER*) in their midst as they break THEIR sworn Oath of Office to uphold and protect these United States Constitution.
Ha ha ha ha – delicious!
Bragg and Pomerantz will simply ignore the subpoena, Congress will declare them in contempt and forward a criminal complaint to the DOJ, which Garland will refuse to prosecute.
forward a criminal complaint to the DOJsend the Sgt at Arms to arrest themUnfortunately, they don’t have the balls to do that.
Not true. They don’t have the will to to do it against someone doing something they agree with.
‘Congress will declare them in contempt and forward a criminal complaint to the DOJ, which Garland will refuse to prosecute.’ – Auwtsnae
Sounds plausible, and it’s happened before.
Merrick Beria Garland is our misfortune.
Congress has the authority to arrest and imprison those found in Contempt. The power extends throughout the United States and is an inherent power (does not depend upon legislated act).
If found in Contempt the person can be arrested under a warrant of the Speaker of the House of Representatives or President of the Senate, by the respective Sergeant at Arms.

Wow! We won…one in a row!
Very occasionally the judiciary is more interested in CYOA than activism in which case we “win.”
The DA office took federal funds to prosecute Donald Trump, the DA office is interfering in a federal election, the DA office has openly stated their intentions are politically motivated, and therefore the DA office has no standing to try and avoid federal legislative scrutiny.
——-
Not to mention that the DA as candidate took Soros funds specifically to target and manufacture the prosecution of Donald Trump.
And we have the video to prove it.
again……where does Soros get HIS funds?
He seems to be the clearing house to
fund the dems bad behavior.
From the offshore dollar market that Powell is now draining of liquidity by raising interest rates.
Soros is the guy who “should have got HIS” years ago. Message sent to oligarchs.
From USA stolen tax dollars to be used for his nefarious purposes against the USA and it’s citizens with political payoffs under the guise of his NGOs.

And it is an enjoyable read. Thanks! (Not a legal pro, found myself thinking it reads like the judge is checking Bragg’s homework.)
“By bringing this action, Bragg is engaging in precisely the type of political theater he claims to fear”
This article in the WSJ (Murdoch…) says that the Supremacy Clause prohibits the prosecution of Trump on the basis of his presidency. Therefore, all the FATuous promises Fat Alvin made during his campaign to prosecute “the President” suggest that the Supremacy Clause immunizes DJT from state prosecution.

This is beside the fact that Fat Alvin has no case. He should be tarred and feathered and then disbarred.
And Prosecuted for VIOLATING HIS OATH of OFFICE, which Just So HAPPENS categorically to be an Act of Pure TREASON.
Read up on the Brunson Brothers case which has been sent to the USSC twice by Request of the USSC, in the past 6 (?) months.
It is all about the Public servants who have been Violating their Oaths of Office UNCONSTITUTINALLY!!!
HUNDREDS of them, Specifically.
And the USSC Judges VOLUNTARILY of their own initiative and volition, had one of their clerks help the Brunson’s with Technical advice to strengthen the case.

Sincere Thanks Mike. I also don’t fund paywalls for leftwing or globalist rags (NYT, WSJ).
Somebody just tell Bragg he’s got nothing to worry about if he testifies. The Democrats and the left can do and say whatever they want and it never goes any further.
That is a BAD way to DECREE what needs to happen. That may be where your Faith is, but you won’t appreciate the Harvest of Decreeing THAT.
Try speaking a More POSITIVE MESSAGE, Declaring Faith in God Jehovah through Jesus His son, out loud, until your heart, hearing your own voice decree a good thing, begins to believe it, since God does still Move for such things.
Please do not send out these kinds of words that become a tangling snare for your own feet, against what your heart is crying out for, allowing the devil’s Doubt to have victory over you.
God does NOT want to see you be so defeated, in this manner.
Try Practicing on Psalm 91 – “The Soldier’s Shield”.
I promise, you won’t be sorry!
Meanwhile the Dim House of Cards is already Crumbling. And they haven’t even left the building, so when it cuts loose and crashed to the ground…. We will know their HARVEST has arrived.
Thank you for your advice. However, I am speaking the truth, it maybe not what people want to hear but it is exactly the way the legal system is working in America at the moment. The truth hurts but cannot be denied.
I understand the constitutional reason why Congress can involve district attorneys….specifically in the instance where these DA’s receive FEDERAL money.
but my questions are these:
what IF these DA’s in these cases do NOT receive federal money? Is this ruling THAT narrrowly predicated? In other words, what IF the DA’s simply argue in appeal that FEDERAL money WAS received but was not involved in a particular case.?
so that’s one question…and I think it’s an important one. If the ruling is narrowly constructed upon whether Congress has standing based solely on the federal funds basis. (for certain, I presume that corrupt DA’s around the country will strategically redesign their federal funding and set up firewalls against future court rulings. Remove the federal funding basis, and then congress has not legal standing to oversight and thus subpoenas become void and moot?
the next is a larger question: so congress can subpoena a State DA (presumably any District Attorney even federal?), and involve itself in constitutionally lawful oversight? but to what end? Congress does not possess the legal power to deconstruct a court case. It may ask questions, present a political opinion, but does it have any enforcement to halt even a corrupt court case (such as the case against President Trump)? What is the goal here other than officially declaring objections to the Bragg Case? My understanding is that the ONLY authority that can halt this or any other court case is the judge presiding over the case (or an appeal judge operating a review), yes?
I do understand the intention and the legitimacy of Congress (House to be specific) to subpoena DA Bragg and to dress him down publicly, and also to debate forcibly the merits (or lack thereof) of the predicate of this case, it’s improper construct, the delays to a speedy trial, the lack of an underlying criminal violation and event the standing and jurisdiction aspect…those are all very important legal debates. But does congress have any TRUE CONSITUTIONAL power to terminate this fraudulent state court case? I think this is where we need to set expectations for the outcome? It would appear to be that the most likely outcome is that DA Bragg appears before congress, they argue back and forth and ultimately the TV says jordan is a white supremist who hates blacks in power and likewise the FOX like media will remark how the angry militant soros corrrupt banshee has crossed the rubicon and it’s now open season on every current, former and yes, even possibly FUTURE political official. (we’ve already seen these high spectrum imaginations….and most of them are true about precedent and how courts can and have become nothing more than political weapons)..but what will stop these radical prosecutors?
lets examine a few possible options:
congress terminates funding…the consequence is that if the ruling is based on receiving and using federal funds..then this will have opposite and detrimental legal problem for congress to perform oversight. So it would seem that the money must continue to flow in order to have jurisdiction and standing…yes?
corrupt DA’s/corrupt prosecutors are only limited by motions filed to judges presiding over these cases to inspect for fraud.
which raises the question: why hasn’t Team Trump filed specific motions that highlight the mountain of facts that dematerialize the predicate of these indictments? Or am I just being impatient and that these will be coming soon after the arraignment ? But that raises the serious question…given the entire basis of this case is based on pure manure….why would the legal defense team not engage the judge in pre-arraignment motions to dimiss? It would appear to me that allowing the courts to step into even the first or second legal ladder makes it far more difficult to move the judge presiding the case to dismiss.
where are the motions for instance alleging the DA has committed misconduct…even if not proven intentionally abusive…but simply negligent …grossly negligent? is that just as important for the defense team to strike with the Judge in this case before it gets any more oxygen?
what worries me the most about this case, is that it seems the defense team is failing to take preemptive legal actions to destroy this case in its tracks…demonstrating to this judge, the basis of the indictment is absent fundamental basic requirements that it should never be allowed to even be filed in court.. no?
that seems to me the biggest problem here…that a DA can file an indictment, the court can accept it, and the merits of the indictment can be completely and fundamentally flawed. Even if the misconduct or maliciousness does not exist, mere negligence to achieve a minimum set of requirements seems to be the most serious problem here.
how can a judge allow such a case to even be filed with these flaws…these indictments where a crime is not even claimed in the charge?
it makes no sense to me. Is this something unique to NY law…that a DA can file an indictment and prosecute a suspect of a crime without even mentioning the actual crime that is alleged?
I mean if that’s how the law works in NY, I guess we will learn next week when the defendant does not have the right to face his accuser…or that NY laws allows a prosecutor to leak prohibited grand jury evidence to the public before trial…or that a DA in NY can satisfy standing and jurisdiction over federal law, simply by whispering it to the news media? Maybe next month, we learn that NY law allows anyone to file an indictment…for any reasons whatsoever, even fictional crimes…like failing to brush the boots of a worm before the weekend…because we all know just how serious and injurious to the public that a worm with filthy boots can be. Maybe next month, we find out that NY laws allows a DA to just make shit up…and dump a big pile of it on the court floor…and that’s just okay dokie fine…I mean why not. Right? that’s the road NY is one. not a banana republic and a kangaroo court, but some far more stupid and dangerous: letting very dumb people have power to do whatever they want to do, for any reason, to anyone these choose.
Just like budweiser found out….don’t f$%k with basic standards of expectations….do it and there will be consequences…financial, personal, and corporate.
same here…DA bragg must be taken to the woodshed..and EVERY SINGLE PERSON INVOLVED in creating this case dematerialized, up and including the presiding judge who has allowed this indictment to be filed and arraingment process to be allowed. THAT is a serious violation..and the court owns that.
take it down, like people have done to budweiser…this is no different. Destroy each of these people financially…find out how the make money and make the cost of doing business with them very very very expensive.
start with soros…learn how his foundation survives….go after every business relation.
(as a side note, we should be doing the same thing with dominion…there IS a way to destroy this company financially…and that IS more powerful than a court or a congressional oversight..focus)
God Bless America
The problem is —- who is powerful enough, without receiving kickbacks from Soros, (or other administrative state entities) and has the ethics to pursue this?
Who is immune to the very real threats of harm?
Collectively, for millions of us, there must be a way through this abusive, unwieldy horror show know as the U.S. government!
The Lord God Jehovah. Like He did with Pharaoh at the Red Sea, Like He did with Korah at Numbers 16, like He did with King Saul, Like He did with Sodom and Gomorrah, like He did with Belshazzar and the Handwriting on the wall, and like He did with Ahab and with Jezebel. And has done thousands of times, both In Biblical accounts, and outside of them, as well.
Regimes are toppling “suddenly” as we speak.
Like He did with those who mocked Elijah and Elisha
Oh and the MAGNIFICENT RESCUE of King Jehoshaphat in 2 Chronicles 20 when He destroyed the THREE GREATEST ARMIES in ALL the REGION in ONE DAY!, without Jehoshaphat and His people even raising so much as a Hay Rake in their own defense – SAT ON A HILLSIDE AND SANG PRISES to the LORD during the Battle. THEN they spent 3 DAYS HAULING OFF THE BOOTIE from all the 3 DEAD ARMIES’ SUPPIES AND GOODS which they left behind. Rich Fabrics, Gold and Jewels, Garments, tents and furnishings, not to mention Arms and food supplies, and who knows what all, surely HERDS of various animals as well – horses, camels, mules, goats and cows……. Tents, Beddings, cooking utensils…….
And tell me, who would have stopped hauling the stuff home, at NIGHT? Leaving their Neighbors to get all the best choice things, while they slept….
How would YOU like to haul treasures home for 3 Days straight, all you could load up and carry! Prolly fully able to use those armies’ carts horses and mules, and their camels to carry the loads…
HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT GRAVY!!!!!??????
All of them doing DIRTY DEEDS have certainly ACCEPTED and BEEN SPENDING very very hefty BRIBES, so they are caught anyway.
That’s a lot of writing, but first the order is in regards to a suit brought to prevent Congress from deposing Pomerantz, nothing about Bragg though the judge did find that Bragg had standing to bring the suit. The “federal fundings” was one of several Congressional areas of relevant oversight. As far as the criminal indictment in NY Supreme Court, that does of course provide a NYS felony statute that a grand jury found probable cause of violation (false business records). I imagine in due time there will be motions to dismiss and various legal battles long before it goes to trial (if it does survive that long).
I’m not convinced “grand jury found probable cause of violation”
false business records allegations (like any criminal charge) requires some criminal violation of law.
lets break that down to it’s simple and rational parts.
I hope this makes it more clear why I believe (as many other legal people have also considered), the entire case that DA Bragg has developed is built on vapor…fiction…ignoble gas..swamp naseum.
the point I am trying to make here: given the complete absence of entire pieces of required predicate…why was the case allowed to be filed with the courts in NY…
is NY some extraordinary mutant state that ignores standing, jurisdiction, and allows anyone to make a baseless class of harm where none can be demonstrated….and seek to find state felony violations?
the whole thing from end to end is a complete failure to observe anything that even approaches normal law and process.
this is something we would expect to happen in some shithole country where the state observes no limits…that only has a justice system to achieve some political or police state power.
this is not how America or NY state should be allowed to operate.
I am thinking more and more about this and how sanctions against DA bragg and his office AND THIS JUDGE.
I think THAT PARTICULAR ASPECT OF THIS INTENTIONAL FRAUD climbs to SCOTUS.
does congress have its separate power to sanction the state of NY? That’s an interesting question.
lets imagine that Congress steps in…and does more than just argue fiercely in the chambers about his fraud. What happens if congress empanels it’s own independent counsel with prosecutorial power…
the question seems to me..the very big one: Has DA Bragg, his office and the NY court judge in this matter violated a specific federalism limit? and if so, what is the power of congress to sue and limit future abuses.
you will notice at no time have I made these arguments about President’s in particular. what lies at the heart of this bad faith and color of law abuse..is that the entire premise of the case is zero.
you cannot charge someone with “false business records” without jurisdiction, standing and that some violation of law happened to prohibit making false business records.
it would be like a state prosecutor bringing a charge against me for making a false business records violation…on matters related exclusively to federal taxes.
so is there really ANY MYSTERY why DA Bragg refused to list the underlying criminal statute? He chose to ignore this because it would have immediately caused the courts to deny the filing due to a lack of authority to enforce a statute his office has zero power to enforce, or even investigate, much less prosecute..
that is the reason I believe this kind of fraud…a willful and intentional grab toward lawless power must receive a serious penalty toward BRAGG, his people, his office AND specifically the judge in this court.
this should have never been allowed to be filed. there is no power of law in NY that would allow it…
and yet, here we are…it IS happening…there must be some serious consequences for this kind of fraud.
God Bless America
A lot of ?’s, regitiger.
I’ll take a shot at a few.
Congress has authority to hold hearings, with subpoena power, as an essential part of its larger authority and responsibility to legislate.
So, “fact finding’ hearings to A) explore the need for new legislation, and exactly how to word such legislation, and B) “oversight” to insure that the Executive is enforcing the legislation Congress has written, as Congress intended.
No, as far as I know Congress has no legal authority to stop what Braggs is doing, only to “shine a light on it”.
As to the Court case, it is obvious, by the fact that the Judge didn’t dismiss this case as meritless at the outset, that they are beyond biased.
Therefore, any filings by the defence, challenging the validity OF the case, by PDJT’s defence team will be dismissed by the judge.
They may be “keeping their powder dry” and saving such arguments for appeal.
It gets down to legal strategies and tactics, and I am unfamiliar with NYS law.
I do know there IS a strategy that HAS been succesfully used before by criminal defendants, of deliberately losing the case, but insuring it is done in such a way that having the case overturned on appeal is a certainty.
Not saying thats whats happening here, just using that as an example.
Viewed “from the outside” someone sympathetic to the defendant may well say “WHAT the h*ll are they DOING? WHY don’t they CHALLENGE this?”
And then, on appeal the Defendant walks out of court, case dismissed with prejudice. I have seen it happen.
And yes, court cases generally move s-l-o-w-l-y, unless they are election result challenges cases, lol.
thanks for the reply…
There HAS TO BE A WAY to deconstruct fraudulent indictments before arraignment.
I guess that’s the thrust of my issue with this particular case.
We’ve read cases getting thrown out for lots of reasons well before a defendant is indicted.
for instance, it’s common for a judge to refuse a filing if required elements are not located in the indictment.
like…what IS the crime?
or …does the prosecutor even possess the authority to file? standing, jurisdiction.
or…has the appropriate authority that has standing and jurisdiction already considered the case and has chosen not to pursue prosecution…see DOJ and FEC
or…that the indictment contains FRIVOLOUS allegations…see what amounts to be a misdemeanor violation (at best, setting aside the obvious standing and jurisdiction disqualifications), arbitrarily and without precedent or common law to be elevated and promoted as a criminal felony violation.
or…that there is no demonstrated HARM? if the violation exists, there must be an injured party…this is very specific to “false or wrongful business record keeping”…from that, either the state of NY/NYC must show there is harm….an outcome that has injured the integrity or caused the defendant undue rewards (or avoidance of lawful responsibility)…this matter is ultimately about money..how do the charges show the money involved has caused any harm to anyone? If the basis if the argument is that the business expenses were falsely recorded…then the state must show to both the grand jury and also in the filing of the resulting indictment that this action to making false business records entries caused harm..and not just merely injurious to solely complying with some written rule. This is why this matter has always been regarded as a misdemeanor. it’s like speeding on a completely empty road…at 3 am and there is no other car anywhere for miles. Just you and the police. Speeding tickets in this instance are (or should) be determined as a penalty based on the explicit risk or direct harm to someone else. There does not appear to be ANY party that experienced ANY HARM…the only potential argument (and I use potential very liberally to make this point), is that perhaps the business expense entry was incorrectly entered…and that is the only “harm”. As a matter of practice, these kinds of victimless no harm errors are always concluded with a very small fine. Again from the FEC…and only rise to a violation of election funds violations when there is something like personal gain (financial fraud benefitting the defendant/candidate)….or something like money laundering to conceal unlawful donations..
nothing about this case should have ever been allowed to be filed in a court of law…
that’s my take on it.
and then the question becomes: what is the appropriate legal action to REVERSE the filing and kick it out of the court docket and back to AG Bragg along with at least a letter of censure for committing frivolous, meritless, obviously incomplete indictment that has placed the defendant AND THE COURT in a position where process to evaluate the allegations is egregious and undermines the strict process and requirements necessary.
God Bless America
This is the best thing I have seen out of SDNY in many years! Her ruling is priceless (and entertaining). She (or her clerk) got ahold of a copy of Pomerantz’s book to bolster her ruling with a page and a half of his own words being used against him.
Especially the sentence, “No one is above the law.”
AWESOME!!!! Just So Fabulous!
He won’t show, claiming that the judge is wrong and the decision is under appeal. He’ll be looking for friendlier judges there.
Good, He’ll be escorted where he doesn’t want to go by the Sgt of Arms.
LOVE the photo of the Fox and the Hound!
Well, Bragg has no one but himself to blame for the mess he so vainly (Arrogantly) and Heartily worked to Constructed for himself. I don’t care what the Judge says, He RICHLY EARNS this and TRUE justice would go after him of ALL PARTIES, and REGARDLESS of PARTIES, because of his Gross Malicious Prosecution, Politics or NO Politics, it is Personal Animus, and his actions were NOT A WHIT driven by Fervor FOR THE LAW or FOR JUSTICE!
THERE WAS NO JUSTICE AT ALL on his mind for This hell storm in a Tea Pot, and he has fully EARNED every element of this Tempest in a Teapot of an AVALANCHE of REAL JUSTICE that comes slamming down square on his MALICIOUS and TYRANNICAL head.
Someone so maliciously ABUSING a COURT for his own malicious Political objectives has fully earned Prosecution for TREASON, A N D N O T H I N G Less.
Our enemies can hardly believe their good fortune as we consume ourselves.
God bless the patriots and DJT.
Poor Grimace.
From the judge on the TRO. ” By bringing this action, Bragg is engaging in precisely the type of political theater he claims to fear”
When is Fat Alvin going to get his guest appearance on South Park or The Simpsons? Fat Alvin is made for TV. He’s going to need a job after he is disbarred unless he is another Stacey Abrams.
A spokesperson for Bragg said Wednesday, “We’re Democrats; we don’t have to abide by no stinkin’ judges decision”
Alvin Bragg will be in his office in New York on Thursday.
The truth of the faith comments above really hit me, today.
It does seem that only a miracle can reverse this situation.
That is most likely, I think, why the darkness is descending.
We are being led back to the only source of miracles. Much more dire situations throughout history have been cured.
The founders were a miraculous convergence of faith, intellect and determination.
Going forward, I am going to be more intentional each day about praying for the intervention of the author of miracles.
Yes, I see it as two-fold.
Reality is “there are no athiests in foxholes” meaning when we humans are “down to it” and all seems bleak, we turn to God.
Hence, the worse it gets, the more who will cast aside their wicked ways, bend a knee, and pray for Gods grace and forgiveness.
Secondly, a miracle is,something that simply “can’t happen, and yet does” and that stands as a “proof” of God.
Personally as I review the reality of PDJT rising up “out of nowhere” (politically speaking) and uniquely A) having the $ to NOT be bankrupted/destroyed by the lawfare B) despite a lifetime of owning businesses in some of the most corrupt areas of commerce having NOTHING his enemies can find to use against him (HOW could he POSSIBLY have avoided the “3 felonies a Day”?) and as I look at his behavior and what he advocates and contrast it with his enemies, I need no further proof that PDJT HAS been, and IS BEING used by God, to carry out his will.
And, as I see the steady, inexhorable increase in his support, and the increasingly desperate moves of his opponents which more and more expose their satanic connection, the spiritual aspects of this titanic struggle are SO obvious, I find it hard to believe there are those that focus ONLY on the earthly aspects, and refuse to see what is RIGHT in front of them.
But then, the Bible is FULL of such stories, over and over, Gods chosen people took their eyes off of him.
You are a wonderful writer, Dutchman, and what you just wrote is an amazing testimony — in a few short paragraphs — to how the Lord, God, has moved through the life of Donald Trump.
Thank you.
Nicely said; over and over, is so true. I sometimes need a reminder or encouragement in these times.
Big deal. Nothing gonna happen to him
We are devouring into South Africa. We skipped the banana phase of the Republic.
Im waiting for the tire necklaces to start up in Chicago.
I am still waiting for the Constitution to be enforced and for America, the REAL America, to take flight.
Good for Jordan using his subpoena power. Bad on the GOP Congress for not already announcing a 25% budget cut for the DOJ.
Multicultural states do not last long. We will be in steady decline until we realize this and we can’t vote our way out of it. The boomers lived through the golden years of this country and threw it away with their apathy. No one alive today will live such a charmed existence. This country is done for and the civil contract null and void. It will be a “not my problem” mentality from here on out until the total collapse or take over.
Uplifting for sure, just…..in the future try not to insult entire generations who’s membership include a large, very large number of men and women who served this country with honor regardless of what was offered them from an ungrateful citizenry.
TAke a look at the votes. It’s not Boomers that did this.
There it is again, blaming “boomers” for the end of the country, if not the world or universe.
You must be part of the plan to place negative thoughts about senior citizens into the open, void minds of those with no critical thinking skills, so when the day comes that “boomers” are taken off to the slauderhouse, no one will care.
Refreshing to find individuals in office actually attempting to abide by the law they were elected to uphold.
Imho, many today and they know who they are tend to be in a race to H….Sad
More puppet theater. I hate puppet theater.
Traitors to the Constitution have no fear of consequences, because those tasked with enforcing those consequences are also traitors.
This is why the Founding Fathers enshrined our natural right to self defense and self determination in the 2nd amendment of the Bill of Rights–so that if the 1st amendment came under attack, patriots would have the ability to take up arms and do their DUTY to fight for their OWN natural rights.
The daily puppet shows are meant to distract from the lack of free speech and restrictions on the right of assembly.
I am not distracted. Free speech is at the heart of being a citizen of the American Republic, and i will go over, around, or straight through any obstacles to my freedom…
Actually, the Founders gave us several options, prior to resorting to the “last option” of 2A.
Firstly, there is the ballot box, which we neglected with over 1/2 of eligible voters not bothering to vote, and 75 percent no getting any further involved in the process than voting.
Then there is the 10th amendment which WE, the States and the People could have (and still CAN) use to push back against Federal overreach, instead of going into a fetal position and sayinh “Oh, its the FEDS, there us nothing we can DO!”
And there is the guarantee of a Republican form of Governance, and the authorities granted to any State Governor to Declare an invasion.
In short, the problem isn’t that we have an out of control Federal Govt, that is obvious.
It is that We the People and our State elected Governments have allowed and enabled this monster to grow, unchecked and unchallenged for so very long.
The problem IS “We, the people” and the solution must come from We, the people, and still there are so many somnolents that things will have to get a lot worse, before they will unite to withdraw their consent.
Did I mention that I hate puppet shows? All those little Pentagon signature reduction puppets lined up online, dancing their little dance. Boring…
All Bragg has to do is not show up though. Democrats have done it before with no consequences.
If he does, the Committee can send the Federal Marshals to New York City to bring him before them in irons. And they should.
Agreed, would not only serve as a clear cut example, it would also be refreshing for some of us.
Do you really believe the Republican leadership has the balls to do that though? I’ll believe it when I see it. So far, they have sat back and watched as our country goes further and further left and gets more and more violent. They won’t even try to fix our elections. Steve Bannon has done more by himself than they have collectively.
Actually, my understanding is NO, the committee CAN’T.
ANY legal action, intiated by either Housevof Congress, and any committee or sub-committee thereof, is a court action BY Congress, and the Speaker is the legally designated representative OF Congress, and so HE, Kevin McCarthy must “sign on the dotted line” in much the same way if you were to sue the Trump Corporation, you would name Donald J. Trump as the person REPRESENTING the Corporation your sueing.
IF Jordan is NOT simply a ‘fire break’ who’s in place to insure any investigations actually DO NOT expose the whole dirty Uniparty laundry, McCarthy will refuse to sign off, as Ryan did with Nunes, and Jordan will NOT come before the cameras and “call him out for it”, which he could easily do.
In which case, that whole “5 days to elect a Speaker” with “the 20 and the 6” was ALL kabuki theater, designed to mollify US into believing that House Republicans were actually going to “do something” this time. Even that so called “almost fist fight” with Gaetz, and McCarthy turning around and walking back, the glaring anf the sharp words, was all as staged as a WEF “fight”.
For me, watching how THIS aspect plays out, is FAR more instructive than anything that will happen in the hearings with Bragg testifying.
One of the main tasks of Congressional leadership has been to maintain the illusion of “the AISLE” and to work to conceal the complicity of Republicans in furthering the theft of our rights and treasure by the Uniparty, falsely blamed on “the Dems” but actually perpetrated by the Uniparty.
lets see what happens,..next as this will tell the tale.
Its squarely in Jordan and McCarthys hands, now.
IF we are “being played” we will soon know.
Will you bet me you are wrong. The problems will come from the DoJ, and they are all Demcommies.
No. Upon a finding of contempt the Speaker may issue a warrant to the House Sgt at Arms. The Stg at Arms (or his deputy) will then arrest the contemnor.
This man is engaging in classic “Lawfare,” and he’s going to have his ass handed to him. Quite deservedly so. “The Law” is not supposed to be a weapon of war, but that’s exactly how he is treating it. He should be disbarred.
Or beaten with it….either works for me.
As i see it the justice system is completely corrupted in the entire country.
We have in you face political Democrat prosecutors in blue areas and under cover Democrat prosecutors masquerading as Republicans in Red areas on a tear to destroy what’s left of this country.
Then we have at least 75 % of the judges being liberal subversives at every turn.
Then we have the totally outnumbered judges who take their solemn responsibility to uphold the law seriously.
When an issue finally gets a fair judge for a hearing on its surface it looks like justice will be served and then rules kick in and a gag order is imposed as the case drags on for months.
Before we know it 10 new issues surface causing the long forgotten case to fade away.
Then if by chance justice prevails they shop around and find a corrupt judge who will surly overturn the ruling on appeal.
Years pass monies that we thought were allocated to achieve justice get wasted and wrong doers walk.
To add insult to injury the wrongdoers are supported financially through various nefarious means and in the end they are rewarded for being exposed.
What we have is an ongoing constantly evolving game plan being enacted against this once great country
Rinse and repeat until all is long lost.
How can all the lawyers and judges who understand the destructive nature of what we are witnessing support this subversion ?
Most of them are Democrats.
It’s the money that’s how .
That is all they care about.
Governments, rulers, are parasitic to those who produce. This has never changed in the course of mankind. Tyranny starts when the ruler can no longer limit its gorging, when the host senses it must free themselves of the parasite or die. Tyranny always ends in tragedy.
Parasites are incapable of living on their own resources. They survive wholly on the blood of their host. Yet, most, instinctively sense when their size and number trigger the demise of their host. When this instinct fades, the parasites become so fat, so large in number that they simple gorge themselves until the host is dead.
We, in America, are now ruled by tyrants – parasites who have grow so fat that they simply cannot fathom that our means, our labor, our ingenuity has limits. Without question, our rulers cannot see that they must reduce their appetites and numbers to survive. That means that we now must pluck them off while we still have the means, or, devolve into the demise of tyranny.
To extend thecanalogy, we humans also have creatures living on and in us, with which we have a symbiotic relationship.
Research “microbiome” for details, but some examples; there are microscopic creatures that live on our eyelashes.
They eat the dead, shedding skin from our eyelids, that would otherwise cause us serious problems with our vision.
We have a bacteria that resides in our gut, that consumes FIBER (which we don’t) and excretes B vitamins that we then absorb.
Our Founders endeavored to establish a Government that would have a such a symbiotic relationship with the People.
Unfortunately, as “the host” We the People and our State representatives, gorged ourselves on the sweets of Federal dollars, the drugs of Constitutional amendments (17 the and 22, for instance) and so “killed off” some of these beneficial bscteria, and left an opening for cancer causing parasites to move in.
And, lack of excercise, being to lazy to bother being invested and involved in the political process, prefering instead to sit on our couches and gorge on the intellectually nutritionless pap shoveled out thru the boob tube.
Isa_5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
It will get the Eric Holder treatment.
Bragg might as well drop the persecution of Trump right now.
Pomerantz declined to prosecute Trump when he was handling the case. Can’t perjure himself out of that fact.
Too funny for words, really.
The photoshopped photo of Trump playing a violin named “media” is hilarious. Good one!

The question is whether the Republicans will be clever enough to engage in Lawfare, place as many perjury traps as possible? Is there any Norm Eisen type on the Deplorables’ side? One thing for sure, the current composition of the committees, for what I have seen, are not capable of outperforming Gowdy–pathetic. They should ask for help.
Even a former president must be successfully impeached and removed from office (figuratively) before he can be prosecuted
Yeah, but the Appeals Court has issued a stay until a three judge panel can hear the case. Oh well…..
I love both photos. The one with the hound reminds me of my dog who recently drove away a family of foxes living under our deck. Just her presence sniffing the bushes and under the deck scared the vixen and moved her family elsewhere. The kits are super cute but they cannot stay in my yard forever.
Alvin Bragg is another pin headed Demcommie, hired with a dark money win of his election in a Demcommie State. Bragg will keep searching until he finds a friendly Court to harass his political detractors. While this looks like a win for Jim Jordan, it has put a DC Swamp target on Jim Jordan’s back. Jordan is now officially a threat to the 4th Branch. Therefore, it is never over until it is over. I wish Jordan luck in getting this Marxist to answer any more questions than Bragg wants to answer. Our illustrious media is already so compromised that they can never go against the Demcommies.
I certainly hope Jordan has not issued this subpoena to crassly score political points.
I do hope that the congressional goal is ready to receive any miscreants that abused the Congress and the Constitution during their testimony, lies, or lack of testimony…
about 12 – 14 years ago,
someone un-named ( b o and company)
miss used the patriot act to
go after innocent political opposition / u.s. citizens – with the weight of us govm’t departments.
[ using a high supply taxpayer funds, to go after individual taxpayers that have a low supply of funds. ]
Unbeknownst, or known, to the ny ag, some sunlight is being shined on the prior miss actions (and someone does not want that light to be shined upon truth for others to see what’s being hidden, and for what miss purposes).
All facts of 2 tiered miss justices, no brag.
imho
BOOM!
“it was Vyskocil’s summary of how the country arrived at a place where it sees a state prosecutor filing a complaint in federal court against the House Judiciary Committee that includes 35 pages and a vast majority of exhibits that “are nothing short of a public relations tirade against former President and current presidential candidate Donald Trump.”
That descriptor alone should give pause to anyone still believing Bragg’s indictment of Trump was righteous. But the opinion highlighted many more facts that confirm the targeting of Trump was a witch hunt.”

Bragg has been assigned a mission: to arrest Trump so as to reduce the shock value when the DoJ special prosecutor arrests Trump early next year.
Now Bragg’s mission is being expanded: refuse to cooperate with Jordan’s committee. As Stalin would have said “Jordan? How many federal agent divisions has he got in Biden’s DoJ?”
George S: I think you are right. Bragg has an assigned role to play, and he will play it. Rewards will follow.
Shame Zeldin was cheated out of the NY Govship. I would have loved to see him take down Fat Alvin.
It seems pretty clear to me that a powerful weapon against what is happening in our country is visible for all to see in the comments section of this post, most notably the comments of folks like regitiger and dutchman. I get the idea that there are some serious folks from the deep state, RNC, DNC, congress, etc. who read what is posted here. If that were not true, then the recent reference to a “shit storm” made by Sundance would make no sense.
That being the case, thank you Sundance for creating this forum.
Everyone, be thoughtful, if you believe you will receive it; ask the Holy Spirit for insight and speak the truth.
Can
Citizen Donald J Trump
file a lawsuit
against MR. Braggs?
Retribution!!!!
Bragg is going to have a tough time finding a legal basis to incarcerate Jim Jordan.
