Showing Original Post only (View all)Now It's Getting Real: Jim Jordan May Be the Next Subpoened by the House Select Committee [View all]
https://www.politicalflare.com/2021/10/now-its-getting-real-jim-jordan-may-be-the-next-subpoened-by-the-house-select-committee/There is a reason that Kevin McCarthy nominated Jim Jordan for the proposed bipartisan January 6th commission. There was a reason that Nancy Pelosi immediately rejected Jordan as a possible material witness.
There is a reason that during the January 6th riots, when Jim Jordan sought to protect the ladies (his words) in Congress and offered to help Liz Cheney, she told him to not dare touch her and that he wasnt helping her because YOU, fcking did this, which we always believed to be an awfully personal statement in the moment because we doubt that was you, plural. She said Jordan did this (certainly with others, though there is no proof as of yet).
The reason is that in some way, somehow, perhaps by appearance only, (but likely much more), everyone in Congress knows that Jim Jordan had something to do with January 6th, even if it was just advanced knowledge.
The committee thinks Jordan knows something because many believe that the committee is about to subpoena Jordan an extraordinary move. We dont know how often Congress has sought to subpoena another member of Congress, it cannot happen often.
