Jay Bratt, the former special counsel prosecutor who led the Mar-a-Lago case against Donald Trump, has been summoned to testify before the Republican-led House judiciary committee. The committee is investigating potential politicization in federal cases against Trump, marking the first known instance of a special prosecutor being called after Trump vowed retaliation.
What This Means: This development reflects escalating political tensions in the U.S., with congressional Republicans scrutinizing prosecutors involved in cases against Trump. It underscores concerns about the weaponization of congressional oversight and the broader struggle over accountability and partisanship in the justice system.
