The new Republican Speaker blasted New York DA Alvin Bragg over his investigation into the former President in a tweet posted on Sunday afternoon. See a screenshot of that tweet below…
Alvin Bragg is abusing his office to target President Trump while he’s reduced a majority of felonies, including violent crimes, to misdemeanors. He has different rules for political opponents.

Republicans stopped the radical DC crime law, and we will investigate any use of… https://t.co/5yYIo8SUOC
McCarthy announced that he will be directing relevant committees in the House to investigat politically motivated investigations across the country, and to look into cutting funds for those who prosecute for political reason.
See a tweet with that statement below…
Here we go again — an outrageous abuse of power by a radical DA who lets violent criminals walk as he pursues political vengeance against President Trump.

I’m directing relevant committees to immediately investigate if federal funds are being used to subvert our democracy by… https://t.co/elpbh7LeWn
Twitter users have been pointing out that since Bragg was elected District Attorney, crime in New York has skyrocketed. See a tweet with that information below…

This arrest is sending shockwaves around the country. Peaceful protests are planned throughout the country tomorrow, the day that Trump is set to be arrested.
What has become of our Nation? What a sad state of affairs. The political persecution in America is no different than that in a third world country.
Terrible! At least McCarthy is speaking out!
“Destroyed” ?? Words are NOT punishment for wrongdoing.
ENFORCE the laws of the land and don’t take excuses.
WE are the government and should have the power to FIRE anybody not doing their job.
A crooked DA is an abomination and should not be allowed.
Amen brother!
The house should stop all NY state aide until Bragg is fired, sorta like big bad biden did with the Ukraine prosecutor!
It’s a psyop people, Trump is one of them. The Trump Jab has fried your brain !
Yes the author doesn’t seem to know the meaning of the word “destroyed”. Maybe that is what the Republicans have become “nay sayers” and have know idea of actually taking the reins from the hands of criminals.
New York sold itself to the devil as evidenced by all hell is breaking loose. And the people are drunk on themselves and don’t care. New York, my birth place, is officiall dead to me and I will never shine my light and salt on that soil again until they come back to Almighty God as their Savior and Redeemer.
The NY DA is a demoncrat hack and no one can expect anything better from him. DeSantis, on the other hand has just shown what a low-life bottom feeder he really is. Trump should use DeSantis to mop the floor. And he will.
Where is the J6 tape of Ashli Babbett’s murderer.????
Where is the CIA’s middle east terror group (aka ISIS) when we need them to storm NY City Hall? Let the rumor get out that DA Alvin uses the Koran as a door mat. Come on CIA, turn them loose so they can do what they do best.
The very same people screaming for Trump’s head will scream “political witchhunt” when Biden is arrested and charged.
Nah, Biden is provable blatant criminal.
Will not take much to prove Biden as criminal along with all those around him.
Democrats struggle to find something on Trump.
They have to reach back seven years, even then it’s a nothingburger.
Witch hunt only applies for adversaries of the liberals/democrats.
Democrats are indeed criminals in actions, words and politics in general.
All talk, no perp walks.
Cuckservatives never do anything but talk and make excuses for doing nothing.
He said things. I don’t see where the “destroyed” comes in. Getting a bit tired of all the hyperbole. When McCarthy goes after these people and actually DOES something, then we can talk about “destroyed.”
Let him arrest Trump. Let him put forward his evidence that Trump instructed a former lawyer to pay hush money to a film prostitute (yeah, she’s not a start just because her fees are paid by a director or producer). If this Prosecutor cannot prove Trump did so, other then by using the words of a convicted lawyer, then *indite the Prosecutor* for:
