Testimony set for July 12thManhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg agrees to testify before Congress following Trump verdict
Bragg’s office has resisted calls to testify before Congress citing the ongoing case against the former president, but in a letter Friday to GOP Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Bragg stated his willingness to testify at a future date.

Jim Jordan takes Matt Gaetz to the woodshed for derailing Trump conviction hearing
Moments after the hearing got underway on Thursday, Chairman Jordan called on Gaetz to question witnesses for five minutes. However, Gaetz offered a motion to subpoena Bragg and Assistant District Attorney Matthew Colangelo."Mr. Bragg and Mr. Colangelo have agreed to come on the 12th," Jordan observed. "If they don't show up on the 12th, they will be subpoenaed. I would ask the gentleman if he could withdraw the motion."
[no dice] "I want to vote on my motion, or I want someone to move to table it," the Florida Republican demanded.
[Democrat motion to tab.... *record scratch*]
"Committee will stand in recess," Jordan ordered.
