House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) sent a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland on Tuesday, demanding an "unredacted copy" of the Justice Department appointment memoradum authorizing special counsel Jack Smith's investigations of former President Donald Trump.

Smith is overseeing two investigations that touch on the former president: the ongoing federal probe into the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, and the unauthorized retention of classified documents at Trump's Mar-a-Lago country club, which sources say is wrapping up with a charging decision imminent.

"The Committee on the Judiciary has jurisdiction to oversee the activities of the Jusrice Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation," the letter concluded.

Your just as insane as that traitor in Florida ranting and raving......and you still think the lection was and should have been thrown out.....you shouldn't even be in Congress......

1. Nothing has been redacted, we have all seen everything happen before our very eyes

I can hear poor Jim’s voice going up a couple of octaves as he talks like an auctioneer. He’s such a lightweight in this whole thing

[Beachnutt]

2. He's just as scared as trump,

his phone calls on Jan 6th.

[NotVeryImportant]

9. Moreso...

He really is a light weight.

[onetexan]

26. THIS!!☝️

[underpants]

3. DOJ: Sure, just wait in your office.

We’ll have it right over.

[TheBlackAdder]

30. And while you're at it Gym. Sit on it and rotate.

[sakabatou]

4. Jack Smith: Hahahahah! Oh wait, you're serious.

Let me laugh even harder. AHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

5. Gym Jordan

I'm in Ohio, not in his district, but Gym is a major embarrassment to Ohio. His district is so jerrymandered, it's a joke. He watched young men being molested at Ohio State. He is another MTG, nothing ever accomplished.

He can pound sand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6. Article One is Supreme, but...

..while Article 1 needs to be respected and strengthened more than ever in this age of the threat of authoritarianism, Jim Jordan is purposefully making proposals, the very purpose of which is to actually weaken Congress (ultimately) by tearing down our institutions (the mythical - and actually non-existent so-called ‘deep state’).

The other branches must therefore squelch these kinds of gambits in their infancy by ignoring them, utterly. When appropriate, but only when absolutely necessary and wise strategically, the Executive and Judicial branches must skillfully oppose and defeat them.

(Obviously the top of the Judicial branch is a last resort, and Supreme Court practitioners will know of the rare cases where the attempt to appeal is wise.)

31. Welcome to DU

[Aristus]

7. More of this bullshit. "No, no, no; give us the REAL document!"

[malaise]

8. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

[Marius25]

10. Any chance Jordan is looking at some indictments?

The guy is clearly a traitor.

[SomedayKindaLove]

29. Fingers crossed...

[LetMyPeopleVote]

11. You can tell that Gym Jordan did not pass the bar exam

There is no way that the DOJ will release this document to TFG/Gym Jordan.

12. after the 2022 midterms and th MAGA assholes

barely taking the House, Jordan wrote a letter to Garland demanding he turn over all files pertaining to the January 6 and MAL stolen documents investigations...Garland politely told him to fuck off and appointed a special counsel in order to keep the ongoing investigations out of Jordan's traitorous reach...

[Comfortably_Numb]

13. Fun game-- how many ways can one come up with to tell Gym "Sgt. Schultz" Jordan to fuck off?

But then nobody got sexually assaulted on Hogan’s Heroes, so my imagery fails.

[lastlib]

22. My go-to is "Proceed with self-fornication".....

...followed by recommendation of the preferred implement, e.g., pitchfork with bent tines, sideways. (That may not be violent enough for what I want Gym-Rat to experience. Working on it...)

[calimary]

25. I like that, lastlib!

“Proceed with self-fornication”! They may have to stop and look it up, first, though.

[Comfortably_Numb]

27. Extraordinary start. I admire your dedication. Rusty, bent, urine-soaked tines, perhaps?

[AZLD4Candidate]

28. My preferred favorite is to tell someone to go piss up a rope.

[Comfortably_Numb]

32. Huzzah!!

[OhNo-Really]

14. A laugh a minute 😂🤣😂

Once an indictment is made. Patience JiJo

[MerryBlooms]

15. Oh, brother. 🤡😄

[lame54]

16. Jim, if you really want to know what's going on...

Then sit in on the trial

[lastlib]

23. ...as a defendant....

[emulatorloo]

17. Everything will be in the indictment. You don't get to see anything else.

18. Dear Gym:

You can piss in one hand and wish in another.
See which one fills faster.

19. Conservatives have learned that being shameless can have political advantages...

what they have failed to learn is that there are limits to the effectiveness of shamelessness and HUGE downsides. They have also failed to learn the lessons from when they have fallen throughout history.

Let's hope that the next fall will be soon, will be the biggest and hopefully permanent, and will not drag the rest of the country down.

20. Here's yer memo, Gymbo:

[FSogol]

21. LOL: Gym Jordan wants to see Jack Smith's long form birth certificate!

[onecaliberal]

24. Traitor said what.

[Martin Eden]

33. Yo Gym baby, Go. Pound. Sand.

That. Is. All.

[Vinca]

34. I would like to read the file on the Gym Jordan wrestler case. There must be a good

reason he wasn't charged with abetting the crime. Somehow, I doubt the police agency that investigated will send it to me.

[kentuck]

35. Yes, let's get the memo or Trump requesting Jordan and Comer to defend him in the House.

Spineless co-conspirator.

[Autumn]

36. Jungle Gym might want to eat shit and bark at the moon.

[MagickMuffin]

37. While you're at it request the unredacted copy of the Mueller report

Perhaps let’s start there gymbo!

[Maru Kitteh]

38. "HA HA."

It's my understanding the above is a direct quote from Jack Smith.
