1. Stonewall those m-fer's until we win the House back, I say!

[MichMan]

2. Do you think having the DOJ keeping the investigation from being concluded for two years is helpful?

[TurboDem]

4. trump seems to think so.

[MichMan]

15. I would think Pres Biden would want to be cleared of any wrongdoing

Not have it hanging out there for the remainder of his first term.

[Cha]

3. Yeah, "a nice polite GFY, jim."

[iluvtennis]

5. Not disclosing information about ongoing investigations has been and continues to be the DOJ policy.

Fk Gym Jordan.

[MotorCityBeard]

6. Got to admit seeing "shoot" and "Jim Jordan" in the headline

kind of got my hopes up.

I actually feel guilty at times for hoping some of these rethug mfers just keel over. You can guess who number one on the list is. +

[rubbersole]

8. Maybe Gym and Kev could have a 3 - way with Marge...

..and then all perish from terminal clap.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

16. Eeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwww

[Scrivener7]

7. Why in the everloving fuck do media outlets keep characterizing this as

an effort by Jordan to "peek into an ongoing investigation."

Jordan doesn't want to "peek into an ongoing investigation."

Jordan wants to sabotage an ongoing investigation. Blow it up. Rat fuck it to smithereens.

What is this bullshit?

[ancianita]

9. +1

[live love laugh]

20. This bullshit is indicative of a politically owned REPUBLICAN media.

[Bev54]

10. They need to have a form letter for Jordan and the rest of the dimbulb committee

chairs that are going to be requesting infor. Just insert the name of the person of agency they are requesting info on.

[republianmushroom]

11. Gym Jim are you worried maybe you should be if you are not now.

14th AMENDMENT

[Skittles]

12. can you even imagine having to address Gym Jordan ias "The Honorable"

[Septua]

13. Jordan will run with the DOJ refusal and start another...

..conspiratorial distraction action.

Jordan: "What is DOJ hiding? What did Biden do they don't want to reveal? What was Hunter's involvement? Did he plan to make a deal China for a cushy $50K a month job? Did the documents pertain to Hunter's laptop? Did they have information relative to Hillary's emails? Did they include anything about Benghazi? Do they mention the Steele dossier? What about Obama's birth certificate?"

[Ligyron]

17. That's actually not even much of a stretch.

Fox fans are conditioned to ct the minute they hear certain words like “Hunter” or “Benghazi”.

[rubbersole]

19. Yep...

I can hear tuckems saying every one of those things. "Just asking questions. We have a right to know." That little twerp had to have gotten beaten up at least once a week in junior high school.

[Aviation Pro]

14. Gym equals 🤡

...

[ificandream]

18. They'll ask again and again and again.

Pretending they never heard the previous answer.

[Marcuse]

21. Did he ask for the file re the Ohio State Athletic Department?
