If he didn't do anything wrong in the Jan. 6 riot, why is Gym Jordan so afraid to appear before his
colleagues?CLEVELAND, Ohio U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan responded to a subpoena to testify about the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol by decrying it as a dangerous escalation of a political vendetta.
Were talking about his response and whether hell comply with its demand that he appear for a May 27 deposition on Today in Ohio.

He sure is acting like he's guilty of something.
And if he thinks not attending will hold up the hearings, he's more delusional than I thought.
I have often thought that about people who dont respond to subpoenas or fight them. If they arent guilty of anything, why not show up.
