Quite Possibly the Beginning of One Bully's Due Reckoning . . . .

NBC News --

The special committee investigating the manufactured traffic jam at the George Washington Bridge plans to issue a subpoena for Gov. Chris Christie’s re-election campaign organization, a source involved in the probe told NBC News on Thursday.

The chairman of the committee had planned to subpoena only Bridget Kelly, Christie’s since-fired deputy chief of staff, and Bill Stepien, who managed both of the governor’s campaigns, the source said.

But the subpoena list grew after the committee hired Reid Schar, a high-powered former federal prosecutor, the source said. The chairman, Assemblyman John Wisniewski, told reporters that roughly 20 subpoenas would be issued — 17 people and three organizations, all in New Jersey.

Subpoena targets include David Samson, the Port Authority’s chair, and Regina Egea, Christie’s next-in-line to be chief of staff.

This is just the preliminary event.  The real fisticuffs and excitement will come when the state and federal prosecutors start dishing out their own subpoenas --- subpoenas with the power to grant immunity in exchange for unencumbered testimony.  If that comes to pass, you're going to see the poor underling saps who Christie unceremoniously shoved under the bus flip faster than an IHOP pancake.

Pass the popcorn.
