House Judiciary Hearing Disrupted by Gaetz's Motion to Subpoena Prosecutors
Rep. Matt Gaetz's insistence on immediate subpoenas for prosecutors already scheduled to testify led to a heated exchange and temporary recess.
- Gaetz moved to subpoena Alvin Bragg and Matthew Colangelo despite their agreement to testify on July 12.
- Rep. Jerry Nadler called the motion unnecessary, noting the existing agreement.
- Chairman Jim Jordan requested Gaetz withdraw the motion, but Gaetz refused initially.
- The hearing went into recess as tensions escalated between Gaetz and Jordan.
- Gaetz eventually withdrew his motion, allowing the hearing to proceed.
