Gym Jordan's FBI investigations 'will backfire' on the GOP: legal expert

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

House Republicans will fail to convince the public that federal scrutiny of Donald Trump is unwarranted, according to former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance.

Incoming House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan of Ohio and other Republican lawmakers have suggested that they will pursue aggressive investigations of the FBI.

"We've been looking at a Church-style committee to look at this," Jordan said during a recent interview, referring to a Senate select committee that was convened in the 1970s to investigate abuses of power by intelligence agencies.

But Vance suggested during an MSNBC appearance on Sunday that the upcoming investigations would do little to distract from Trump’s attempt to overturn the 2020 election. “Good luck with that,” she said.

1. Mr. congressman, you are no Frank Church.

2. Please prosede Mr. Jordan because this will open you up to be questioned too.

3. He'd better be careful of what he starts.

5. Folks like him don't think they have to. All they know is they'll have power now.

4. NOt so sure

It will be full of lies and half truths. It's not like Gym Jordan and the GOPee will be compelled to be truthful.

6. Real credibility

The Jordon committee will be a who's who list of the House members that requested a pardon for their own involvement in the insurrection. Of course those who have committed criminal action want to suppress any investigation into that day's (and those leading to them) events.

It's not going to work!

7. It worked just enough to discredit Hillary...

they're looking for a reprise. Don't be surprised if VP Harris doesn't become a target.

8. It will be time to talk about Gym's sex coverups.

9. Ms Vance didn't read Sunday's Doonesbury.

She underestimates the ability for half the country to pull down the sides of their MAGA hat like blinders.

10. As long as they get the MSM to let them on to TV/Radio to repeat their lies

A good portion of the country will believe it or will be "not sure".

And you can bet AP radio "news" will be taking clips of Gym Jordan and playing them every hour on the hour.

11. Gym Jordan is going to go too far

12. Gym is like the firefighter that sets fires.

Twisted grey matter.

13. Blah blah Joyce Vance

Jordan's task is to make a spectacle, provide Fox with fodder for their Propaganda, and throw dirt on Biden and Dems.

He will accomplish that. It's easy when you have no shame or conscience.

14. scrutiny has or should have been done by now, when does the Fed's indict and go to court.

23 months and counting
