Trump targets Christie with suggestion to reopen ‘Bridgegate‘ investigation
The president’s broadside against Christie, the former New Jersey governor and a two-time presidential candidate, is his latest effort to levy the power of the White House and the courts against his enemies.
The important thing here is the timing and the specific motivation.
President Donald Trump threatened to open an investigation into former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie over the 2013 "Bridgegate" scandal on August 24, 2025, hours after Christie criticized him during an appearance on ABC's *This Week* on the same day.

An inconvenient traffic jam over a few hours many years ago is clearly the most urgent issue of the day.
We had been up to New York shortly before this happened. There are always inconvenient traffic jams at that location. Worst traffic jam I have ever seen except for one in The Netherlands during tulip time.
That was not an "inconvenient" traffic jam. This is major east coast interstate route and the slowdown lasted for four days! On the first day, there were kids stuck on school buses for 9+ hours, a woman who died when her ambulance got stuck, police could not get to where they needed to be. It had a ripple effect across 3 states. It was an abuse of power and a safety crisis. Sadly, Christie managed to avoid and prosecution, but it certainly has cost him politically.
