Jim Jordan, who criminally defied a congressional subpoena, is now chairman of judiciary committee?




Rather than testify about the crimes of Donald Trump, Representative Jim Jordan criminally defied a congressional subpoena, thereby committing the crime of contempt of Congress. Yet he presides as Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, issues subpoenas, and lies about the weaponization of the Department of Justice.

Letting Jordan preside over the House Judiciary Committee is like letting a criminal defendant preside as the judge over his own trial.

Our institutions of government have to do better by the American people. - Glenn Kirschner - 09/21/2023.

This is BS! Is there any way to stop this? We know we have to vote next year, but this is insanity.

Defeated in the "red" district that he's supposed to be representing. Meanwhile, he is only answering to a constituent of one.
