   Watch Matt Gaetz ask Merrick Garland questions at a congressional hearing.  Garland tries to avoid providing communication between the DOJ and the lawfare prosecutors.

   Jim Jordan also asked Garland some questions he avoided answering.

   "Rep Jordan urges Congress to 'defund lawfare activities' of Trump prosecutors
   Jordan's proposal targets Special Counsel Jack Smith, Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis
   
   EXCLUSIVE: House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, told Fox News Digital he is proposing an appropriations package that would "defund the lawfare activities" of state and federal prosecutors leading "politically sensitive investigations," pointing specifically to Special Counsel Jack Smith, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
   
   The proposal comes just days after former President Donald Trump was convicted on all 34 counts of falsifying business records, stemming from charges brought against him by Bragg.
   
   "The Committee on the Judiciary and its Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government continue to conduct vigorous oversight over the Biden Administration in an effort to protect Americans’ fundamental freedoms," Jordan wrote.
   
   Last year, Jordan helped to implement reforms through the appropriations process, including "proposals to prohibit the funding of politically sensitive investigations, protect whistleblowers against retaliation, prevent taxpayer funds from being used to implement radical regulations, prohibit the funding of disastrous Biden immigration policies, and stop the funding of government censorship – among other proposals – which were included in Subcommittee or Full Committee-passed bills."
   
   Jordan said he hopes to build on that work for fiscal year 2025.
   
   "We have seen rogue prosecutors abuse the rules of professional conduct and their duty to do justice in service of politicized ends," he said.
   
   Jordan recommended the 2025 fiscal year appropriations package include language "to eliminate federal funding for state prosecutors or state attorneys general involved in lawfare and to zero out federal funding for federal prosecutors engaged in such abuse."

   This is a Congressional investigation that has to happen.
   
   The democrats cannot be permitted to use the judicial system to interfere in elections, especially national elections.
   
   I think the American people deserve to know about the communication between the DOJ and the rogue prosecutors and their connections to the democrat party.
   
   We have a judge's daughter making significant amount of money from a case her father is trying.  That is just one situation where a lack of judicial ethics is blatant.
