The 1/6 Committee Has A Plan To Deal With Jim Jordan

The 1/6 Committee Has A Plan To Deal With Jim Jordan


1/6 Committee member Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said that the committee will release all evidence so that Rep. Jim Jordan can’t cherry-pick to build a fake scandal.



Transcript via CNN’s State Of The Union:

SCHIFF: They are. I don’t think the back-and-forth is particularly helpful the committee, and I don’t want to engage in it.

We’re going to get to consensus on the report. We’re very close to that now. We’re close to the — putting down the pen and going to print. And I think the report is going to set out in a, I hope, very comprehensive way what took place, what led to that attack and all the circumstances around that.

We’re also going to be releasing the evidence, which may be the most important thing, the voluminous transcripts, the documents and e- mails. We want to make sure that that’s put before the American people. We certainly don’t want the Jim Jordans of the world to cherry-pick anything not disclosed and make a false or misleading narrative out of it.

So, the country is going to have the evidence. They’re going to have our report. And I’m enormously proud of what we have done and know I will be proud of the final result.

BASH: Well, I was going to ask you about that.

Jim Jordan has already said that he is going to — he will be the chairman of the Judiciary Committee. He is — likely. He is going to go through the evidence you left out. You’re saying that there won’t be evidence that will not be made public.

SCHIFF: The evidence will all be made public.

Now, we will have to make sure that we scrub that evidence for personally identifiable information, that the evidence that we provide protects people’s security, it doesn’t put them at risk. So there are things that we’re going to have to do along those lines.

But, yes, we want to put the evidence before the American people, which supports the hearings that we have done, as well as the report that we will put out, and will be a comprehensive picture.


Rep. Jim Jordan has made it clear that he intends to use his power as the Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee to discredit the work of the 1/6 Committee, which he refused to cooperate with.

The 1/6 Committee is preemptively preparing for Jim Jordan’s abuse of power. The Republican House majority is expected to do everything that they can to try to smear President Biden and clear Trump’s name before the 2020 election.

Fortunately their majority is razor thin. The most damage they do will be to themselves by acting crazy. The majority of voters don’t want their crazy garbage.

Its usefulness toward bringing the conspirators to the stand grows weaker with every passing day before the next congress is sworn in.

Am I missing a real thing or is this what it seems? Because it seems like a stunt that is designed to perpetuate uncertainty. The outrage followed by the recess, then more outrage and rumors of promises and then another recess. Now we're being told about a soon-to-be-printed document which will preclude the Republicans from cherry-picking and misleading the readers away from conclusions based on facts.

The timing is too much for me to swallow. Talking, walking like a duck, is this the one-in-a-million chance when it's NOT a duck? In the process of revealing so much about Jan 6 could they reveal something about the timing of their investigation? Have they intentionally slowed the release so as to pair up with the DOJ's blistering pace?

Nobody else is talking about this elephant in the room. Maybe I am because Thanksgiving had me in a conversation with VERY involved Democrat. She's active in the county election effort for Democrats. They lost EVERY SINGLE CONTEST. In reply to my queries about this phenomenon, I was told it was too complex for me to understand. But just before I got that bombshell info, she shared that they were looking into investing in a "professional political adviser" of some sort. A guy or gal who would not know the county or even the state or region but would be able to come in and, for a fee, straighten out their failure and set them on the right course. The plain foolishness of it struck me as a similar tune to the lame excuses I've heard for the slow Jan 6 dance for the last 12 months. The only other conclusion is that it's just "too complex for me to understand". Which is, coincidentally, exactly what my ex-employer's company accountant told me about a $1500 withdrawal from my payroll income that never made it into my 401K. They went bankrupt and barely escaped jail shortly thereafter.

Where I live in some of the local races if I don't vote republican I don't get a say because there aren't any Dems running for those offices. Its not as bad now as it was 30 yrs ago tho.
And I seriously doubt that whatever she was talking about would've been "too complex for you to understand".

Response: I am not dumb, nor uninformed, nor unable to understand complex subjects. Rather than insult me with your condescending attitude, take the time and explain it to me. If you won't do that I can only assume you don't understand it yourself, or you're gaslighting me. I am not going to contribute another dollar to the county Democratic Party until I know where it's going.

Alternate response: "F*ck you!"

Telling them now just allows their brain trust of nazi freaks to plan accordingly, they'll find something to fight back against, invent some slogan, then the media will be all over this with cover stories for the GOP, and the *bombshell* effect is totally negated.

get from those hidden behind Dark Money that I worry over. That bunch has been planning a long time to subvert Congress, and like it or not they have been effective so far.

As we have already seen during the last 2 election cycles they do not worry over facts. They are concerned with creating and maintaining a false narrative of Democrats threatening America, etc. They spent years using the Clintons and Obama as fodder for their lies. They didn't use facts then and they won't bother wasting time on them now. The entire "Hunter's Laptop" melodrama is hyped circumstance cubed, and they know it is.

I saw what they did to Jimmy Carter and the MSM went along gleefully. We can expect that the MSM will serve up far too much Bothsiderism at the very least. Likewise we can expect rich ideologues like Eloon to put their opinions where better judgement ought to be.
