Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan has subpoenaed Mark Pomerantz, a former federal prosecutor, to testify in a case involving the alleged mishandling of evidence by a lawyer for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
The case centers around allegations that Clinton’s lawyer, David Kendall, mishandled classified information during the investigation into Clinton’s use of a private email server while serving as Secretary of State. Kendall has denied any wrongdoing.
Jordan, a Republican and ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, has been leading the charge against Kendall and other Clinton associates, accusing them of obstructing justice and covering up evidence.
Pomerantz, who served as a prosecutor in the Southern District of New York, has been called to testify about his role in the investigation into Clinton’s email server. Jordan has accused Pomerantz of withholding evidence and obstructing justice.
In a statement, Jordan said, “Mr. Pomerantz has information that is critical to our investigation into the mishandling of classified information by Hillary Clinton and her associates. We need to hear from him under oath to get to the bottom of this.”
Pomerantz has not yet responded to the subpoena, but his attorney has indicated that he will comply with the request.
The case has been a contentious issue for both Republicans and Democrats, with each side accusing the other of playing politics. Democrats have accused Jordan and other Republicans of using the case to distract from other issues, while Republicans have accused Democrats of covering up evidence and protecting Clinton.
Regardless of the political implications, the case is an important one for the rule of law and the integrity of our justice system. It is essential that all evidence be properly handled and that those who mishandle it be held accountable.
As the investigation continues, it is important that all parties involved cooperate fully and that the truth be allowed to come to light. Only then can we ensure that justice is served and that our democracy remains strong.
