Rep. Jordan loved having eight committee investigations over Benghazi, but is upset that Rep. Raskin wants select committees to handle oversight on the massive stimulus spending bills.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) gave Gym Jordan a tongue lashing during a Rules Committee hearing, when the Ohio Congressman did not answer his question about how many investigations were launched in Congress into the 2012 Benghazi attack.
Rep. Raskin is furious that Republicans are using "counterfeit outrage" over the idea of forming a committee to exercise oversight on the trillions of dollars of federal stimulus.
Rep. Raskin started out by attacking Trump's response to the coronavirus, which has resulted, so far, in more than 15 times the number of deaths we had on 9/11. He reminded everybody that Trump has rejected Congressional oversight and refused to honor their subpoenas.
Raskin said, "I would so love to hear how my friends would have reacted if President Obama had brought our country to its knees economically in public health, and constitutionally, the way this president has. Can you imagine what they'd be saying if we were wearing masks up here under President Obama?"
