Rep. Jim Jordan Requests DOJ Documents on Ex-Official Leading Trump Prosecution

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan intensifies scrutiny over the role of former Biden DOJ official Matthew Colangelo in the Trump hush money case.

Rep. Jim Jordan has requested a wide range of documents from the DOJ concerning Matthew Colangelo, a key figure in the prosecution of former President Donald Trump.
Colangelo, previously a senior official at the Biden DOJ, joined Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s team to lead the Trump hush money trial.
Jordan’s inquiry focuses on potential political motivations behind the prosecution, reflecting concerns of an 'unprecedented abuse of prosecutorial authority.'
The request includes communications and personnel files from Colangelo’s tenure at the DOJ and his connections with various prosecutorial offices.
The ongoing case has reignited debates over the politicization of justice, with significant implications for federal and state legal interactions.
