And I think President Trump, if you talk to him, he doesn\u2019t believe that, either,\u201d McCarthy, R-Calif., said in response to a question from NBC <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> during House Republicans\u2019 retreat in Orlando.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">He said later: \u201cNobody should harm one another <strong>&#8230;<\/strong> We want calmness out there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">But during the same news conference, McCarthy gave a full-throated defense of Trump, dismissing New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg\u2019s investigation as politically motivated and saying he\u2019s uninterested in cracking down on rising crime in New York City.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cLawyer after lawyer will tell you this is the weakest case out there, trying to make a misdemeanor a felony,\u201d said McCarthy, flanked by members of his leadership team in an outdoor courtyard at the JW Marriott Orlando, Grande Lakes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cThe last thing we want \u2026 is somebody putting their thumb on the scale [of justice] simply because they don\u2019t agree with somebody else\u2019s political view,\u201d McCarthy added. \u201cThat is what\u2019s wrong, and that\u2019s what infuriates people. And this will not hold up in court if this is what he wants to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Trump said Saturday on his <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social media<\/a> platform Truth Social, that \u201cillegal leaks\u201d from Bragg to the media suggest that he, \u201cthe far &amp; away leading candidate\u201d for president, will be arrested Tuesday, and he called for his supporters to protest.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Bragg has been investigating allegations that Trump made a hush-money payment to the adult film star Stormy Daniels during his victorious 2016 presidential campaign. Multiple sources said last week that law enforcement agencies in New York were preparing for a possible Trump indictment as soon as this week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">On Saturday, McCarthy took to Twitter to announce he was directing GOP-led House committees to launch investigations into whether any federal funding was being used to support Bragg&#8217;s probe and &#8220;subvert our democracy by interfering in elections with politically motivated prosecutions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">A day later in Orlando, McCarthy reiterated his pledge to investigate, saying he had already spoken to Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, who also leads the select subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8220;This <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>lies directly to that,&#8221; McCarthy told reporters. &#8220;I think you&#8217;ll see actions from him.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Asked if Trump should still run for president even if he&#8217;s ultimately convicted, McCarthy punted to the nation&#8217;s founders.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8220;The Constitution allows him to,&#8221; he said. &#8220;He has a constitutional right to run.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">After McCarthy&#8217;s news conference, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., a top Trump ally, said people have the constitutional right to peacefully protest. But she joined McCarthy in urging Trump supporters not to protest an indictment, saying they should instead join Trump at a March 25 rally in Waco, Texas. <\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8220;I&#8217;m planning to go; I can&#8217;t wait to go down there. I&#8217;m not going to New York. I&#8217;m going to go to Waco, Texas, and I&#8217;m going to join up with a bunch of people that support President Trump,&#8221; Greene told reporters. <\/p>\n<p class=\"endmark\">&#8220;Because Save America rallies are like a great, big love fest. We&#8217;re all just saying how much we love America and President Trump. I don&#8217;t need to protest.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
