Fox News’ Kayleigh McEnany today pushed back on Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg after he sent a letter to Congress accusing calling oversight an “unprecedented inquiry.”
McEnany described the letter as being “off base” as she also listed reasons why it was absurd for him to suggest it’s the other way around.
In a tweet, McEnany shared a clip from the segment and said, “Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg calls congressional oversight ‘an unprecedented inquiry into a pending local prosecution.'”
“But experts say his case against President @realDonaldTrump is off base and unprecedented via @OutnumberedFNC,” McEnany added.
In the clip, McEnany began, “Alvin Bragg, hate to tell you, but your letter is totally off base.” McEnany then pointed out that even the New York Times spoke to election law experts who said that “never in history has New York State brought a case about a federal election.”
“Alvin Bragg, whew, it must feel a little hot in his office because his case is unraveling,” McEnany jested before listing a couple of reasons why she believes it is.

The letter, composed by Bragg’s general counsel Leslie Dubeck, was sent to U.S. House Reps Jim Jordan (R-OH), Bryan Steil (R-WI), and James Comer (R-KY).
The House Judiciary Committee responded to the letter in a tweet where they fired back, “Alvin Bragg should focus on prosecuting actual criminals in New York City rather than harassing a political opponent in another state. Make Manhattan Safe Again!”

According to Axios, Jordan said that he is “reviewing the letter” and declined to weigh in on a possible subpoena.
