Chaos broke out at the Judiciary Committee's Manhattan crime hearing with protesters demanding to be let in and Chairman Jim Jordan having to tell the witness section to be quiet multiple times due to outbursts of applause during testimony.

Pro- and anti-Jordan protesters clashed with police trying to keep them out of the hearing room, while the chairman knocked Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg's crime policies.

'In this country, justice is supposed to be blind regardless of race, religion, or creed. However, here in Manhattan the scales of justice are weighed down by politics,' Jordan, R-Ohio, said in his opening statement.

Ranking Member Jerry Nadler, a New Yorker himself, said in his opening statement that the hearing was just a way for Republicans to carry water for former President Trump.

'Let me be very clear, we are here for one reason and one reason only the chairman is doing the bidding of Donald Trump,' said the Democrat.

He called Jordan's political plays since Bragg's indictment of Trump an 'outrageous abuse of power' used to 'perpetuate anti-semitic and racist tropes' lobbed by Trump against Bragg and New York attorney general Letitia James, who is also investigating Trump's finances.

'It is - to use the chairmans' favorite term -weaponization of the federal government.'


Jerry Nadler: No Such Thing as High Crime in NYC


1 day ago · Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY), the ranking member on the House Judiciary Committee, is ready to defend New York City's high crime rate by denying it is a big issue …

Comment:
Bragg's bogus indictment of Trump is 100% politically motivated.
Bragg is interfering in the 2024 election.
Bragg's far left extremist policies in NYC are causing a huge increase in the Left-Wing violent crime problem.
These corrupt far-left Democrat politicians such as Bragg and Nadler believe that arresting criminals is some sort of racism.
They don't care about the victims of crime.
Nadler is a POS, when he was Chairman, he used his power to subpoena as a political weapon, just like Bragg is using his power to indict as a political weapon.

Sounds like more attempted insurrection from the demafacsist brownshirts
 
NY has a lower murder rate than Texas, Florida or any state in the South.

Overall crime in NYC is up 23.5% this year, but shootings and homicides are down, NYPD says​

New York Police Department data shows that since January, NYC has seen an over 17% drop in shootings and an over 12% drop in homicides. However, an NYPD crime statistics report also notes that as of December 18, overall crime this year in major categories (including murder, rape, robbery, assault, burglary, and grand larceny) has increased by 23.5% since last year.
So far for the year 2023?

The Big Apple’s new year is starting off with a thud — as NYPD statistics show serious assaults surged more than 18% compared to the same period in 2022.

Rapes were also up nearly 16% and robberies and burglaries rose 9.4% and 5.5%, respectively, for an overall 3.4% increase in year-to-date major crimes, according to NYPD statistics.
While it's good less people are being murdered then the year prior, crime is way up in NYC
 
What exactly can the Judiciary Committee do about it? Its a state issue.
Doesn't seem to be in their wheelhouse.
 
In Bragg’s areajust over 300 people are responsible for over 60,000 theft/burglary crimes.

Nice job, you fat moron.
 
Teabagger, grandstanding..................AGAIN.
Teabaggers, attacking their accuser..............AGAIN.
Teabaggers, trying to protect their dear leader.......................AGAIN.
Fat Jerry Nadless is the only one I heard say “Trump”, Simp.

NYC's DA office receives federal funding.
