Posted for the Jan 6 SC process expertise of Joyce Vance. If time is tight, start 3:44

HT to Liz Cheney for knowing Jordan's role in all of it.

JV: "... It's important to keep in mind, this is likely not a fact finding mission for the committee. They have more than likely, in the 300+ witnesses that they've already spoken to, put together a pretty good picture of what was going on and what Jordan's role was in it.

So this is the classic gambit at the end of an investigation: when you bring in people who are perhaps still subjects and you're thinking that they might be targets, and you talk with them to see how much of the truth they're willing to tell. That guides where you head...they've already tipped their hand that they're considering making a criminal referral over at the Justice Department...

So that's the real Jim Jordan, that's the unguarded, unpolished Jim Jordan...again, I think that's not the point of their engagement with Jim Jordan. They're simply here to make the point that the Jim Jordan we saw in that clip is a lot more closely aligned with the reality of Jim Jordan and his concern about the role he may have played and the knowledge he may have had about Jan 6, than what we'll see on the public stage as he indicates that the Jan 6 Committee is out of bounds or not legitimate. The real Jim Jordan is that clip you played. "
