“Congressman Fallon, after what happened today with former President Trump and an impending, potentially impending third indictment against him, what about the timing?” “The Story” guest host Harris Faulkner asked Fallon, a member of the House Oversight Committee. “Everybody knew you were going to do this hearing tomorrow.”

“It’s awfully suspicious,” Fallon responded. “All we’re going to do, Harris, that I can promise you, is we’re going to follow the evidence. We’re just out for justice. The Bidens have been stonewalling us at every turn and it’s very unfortunate.”

Trump has already been indicted Bragg secured a grand jury indictment against Trump in March in a case centered around a $130,000 payout to porn star Stormy Daniels in 2016.
