The Hill reports:
House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) on Thursday subpoenaed a former Manhattan District Attorney’s Office prosecutor who had worked on the office’s investigation into hush money payments from former President Trump.
The move escalates a fledgling investigation into Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s (D) office that began shortly after Trump predicted his arrest in connection with the probe and comes as Jordan has said he is weighing a subpoena to Bragg.
The subpoena to Mark Pomerantz follows a letter asking him to speak with the committee about his resignation from the office after leading the investigation into Trump.

Why should anyone honor a subpoena from @Jim_Jordan when he himself refuses to abide by one?https://t.co/HxzOxNkgKu
