As gimmie-gim is seeking to obtain information he is not authorized to request related to a single legal case...

Perhaps, District Attorney, Alvin Bragg, should consider giving gimmie-gim the keys to the building, as well as the keys to all of the offices, including every cabinet containing working files, while at the same time inviting gimmie-gim to pursue all current legal cases within all of Manhattan.

In this way, everyone working for and/or with DA Alvin Bragg would enjoy a fully-paid few years of vacation time.

Go for it, gimmie-gim (Even More Sarcasm).

Taking on Alvin Bragg, as he previously tried to take on the more experienced Dan Goldman, is not going to work out well for him. He's clearly out of his depth. Attorney Dan Goldman was lead counsel for the first impeachment hearing and Alvin Bragg is also an attorney. Wasn't Jordan's previous experience as a gym teacher??

An Internet search reveals that:

The honorable Alvin Bragg, New York District Attorney for Manhattan, was a graduate of Trinity School in New York, as well as Harvard University in Massachusetts. He earned a (cum laude) Bachelor of Arts degree in government and received a Juris Doctor from Harvard Law School.

Jim Jordan (on the other hand) was a champion wrestler at the University of Wisconsin-Madison where he graduated with a bachelor's degree in economics. He went on to earn a master's degree in education from Ohio State University in addition to a Juris Doctor from Capital University Law School; however, he(Jim Jordan) never took the bar examination.

Mr. Jordan was involved in the Ohio State University wrestling program during 1987-1995 (as a 'gym teacher'), and prior to the OSU sexual abuse scandal of 2018.

I can't stand him, either. What are his qualifications for office and who is voting for someone who does nothing for his constituents??
