Jim Jordan Rails Against Jan. 6 Committee Having So Many Prosecutors

Rep. Jim Jordan has questioned why the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 attack has more than a dozen former prosecutors and attorneys on its panel when it is not a criminal inquiry.

Well Gym... It just so happens there are a lot of crimes around Jan 6th... Go ahead and testify if there are none.

What is he worried about? They can't prosecute him. LiberalFighter Feb 2022 #3
But they do know how to investigate crimes. Bev54 Feb 2022 #13

He knows what he did.

He is too cowardly to own his behavior.

If the insurrection had succeeded, Jordan would be standing tall and proud. Since it failed, he's tried to disavow his actions that fateful day.

Jordan knows that Justice is coming for him. Perhaps his reelection campaign later this year will put more pressure on him.

Remember during the riot he tried to protect the wimminfolk. If she is anything like her father, she told him to go fuck himself

THAT is indeed what she DID do!

And for this: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."*

*(The first recorded instance for this phrasing comes from Gabriel Manigault, who in his 1884 Political Creed described the sense that “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” as a “natural feeling.”)

"Get your hands off of me. You fucking did this!"

I might be paraphrasing a little but the second sentence is correct.

The only people who should be sweating are criminals. You're not sweating are you, Gym? Gym?
