OA 716: Jim Jordan is Not Alvin Bragg's Daddy

OA 716: Jim Jordan is Not Alvin Bragg's Daddy

By Opening Arguments Media LLC

Liz and Andrew break down several developments in the ongoing effort to hold Trump accountable, including the back-and-forth between Jim Jordan's "Committee on Oversight" and Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg. Oh, and is Mike Pence going to testify to Jack Smith's Grand Jury? Listen and find out!

Along the way we take a deep dive into Congress's power to conduct investigations, the Tenth Amendment, how bad originalism is, and much, much more!
