As Twitchy reported, Donald Trump posted on Truth Social that he expects to be arrested Tuesday. Speaker Kevin McCarthy tweeted that this would be “an outrageous abuse of power” by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
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.

Here’s the full tweet:

I’m directing relevant committees to immediately investigate if federal funds are being used to subvert our democracy by interfering in elections with politically motivated prosecutions.
The New York Times’ Maggie Haberman interpreted that as a threat to Bragg:
The Speaker who partly owes his speakership to Trump is making a threat against Bragg and others of investigation https://t.co/yR3xVJ6wJK

Investigation for corrupt action by a DA is not a "threat," Maggie.
It is called "finding out" after one decides to fuck around.

Not a threat. The prosecution is a threat.

NYT Reporter & IC Operative who won a Pulitzer for pushing a fabricated narrative on behalf of Hillary Clinton is in favor of politically motivated prosecutions.
Curious what you think of Hillary hiding payments for the Steele Dossier as legal fees for her campaign? https://t.co/s4H8oLloAF

"threat" doing a lot of heavy lifting here.

Calling for an investigation of a corrupt prosecutor acting as a politician isn’t a threat, it’s a legal pathway to get facts into the open.

If you have evidence that the Speaker has done something unlawful, I suggest you contact the appropriate authorities, honey-bunch.

You helped create the partisan media complex that are the mouthpieces for this Regime. Dictators around the world watch your dutiful coverage with envy.
You led the way with a phony Russia Russia Russia hoax.
Have you no shame? https://t.co/sSnSD8GnKn

No, @maggieNYT, has no shame. None.

Maggie, you are a disgrace to journalism. Disgusting.

She won a Pulitzer and still has not apologized ?
— No Middle Class: No Democracy No Freedoms (@AdlerJoelle) March 18, 2023
Apologized? No one’s returned their Pulitzer for reporting on Trump’s collusion with Russia.
Alvin Bragg is bought by George Soros. He allows violent criminals to walk the streets of New York City, but will prosecute the likely Republican nominee (and former president) on a baseless misdemeanor charge. These people are trying to turn America into a third-world country. https://t.co/2eYqPegRLF

I've been asked by multiple reporters if an indictment would lead me to rescind my endorsement of Donald Trump. The answer is: hell no. A politically motivated prosecution makes the argument for Trump stronger. We simply don't have a real country if justice depends on politics.
