Former GOP House Speaker John Boehner calls fellow Republican Gym Jordan a 'political terrorist'

Former GOP House Speaker John Boehner in an upcoming CBS interview scorches several members of his own party for being "political terrorists," including fellow Ohioan and Republican Rep. Jim Jordan.

During an episode of "CBS Sunday Morning" set to air this weekend, Boehner criticized what he describes as an outgrowth of political opportunism that led to the deadly January 6 riot at the US Capitol.

Boehner, who represented Ohio's 8th congressional district from 1991 to 2015 and served as House speaker from 2011 to 2015, is promoting his new memoir, "On the House: A Washington Memoir," which is set to be released on April 13.

When asked by reporter John Dickerson who would fall under his definition of a political terrorist, Jordan's name immediately sprang up.
