President Donald Trump is threatening a new investigation of former New Jersey governor Chris Christie (R) over a years-old scandal after a television appearance in which Christie was critical of Trump.

Writing in a social media post Sunday night, Trump referenced the “Bridgegate” scandal that started in 2013 in New Jersey, in which top Christie aides ordered lane closures on the George Washington Bridge into Manhattan, creating days of traffic jams, to retaliate against a mayor who had not backed Christie for reelection. Christie himself was never charged.

“Chris refused to take responsibility for these criminal acts,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social network. “For the sake of JUSTICE, perhaps we should start looking at that very serious situation again? NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW!”
