Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office responded to demands from House Republicans for documents related to its probe of former President Donald Trump, saying it "will not be intimidated by attempts to undermine the justice process, nor will we let baseless accusations deter us from fairly applying the law."
In a statement Tuesday, a spokesperson for Bragg said that "in every prosecution, we follow the law without fear or favor to uncover the truth. Our skilled, honest, and dedicated lawyers remain hard at work."
