Why Jack Smith was subpoenaed to appear before Jim Jordan's Committee? [View all]
It was the last thing that Jim Jordan wanted. He did not want to be exposed anymore than he already is.
But, the guy in the White House hates Jack Smith. He wants revenge on him more than anyone else, including Jim Comey or former CIA Director John Brennan.
Jordan's orders were to subpoena Jack Smith and if he failed to show up, Pam Bondi would indict him for contempt of Congress.
And if he did show up, their orders were to pick him apart. Tear all the meat from his bones. Ask conspiratorial questions and get the names of everyone that helped Smith in his investigation. Attack his methods and his reputation. Destroy him.
But something funny happened on the way to the circus. Jack Smith immediately picked their arguments apart. They became frustrated and fearful in their questioning. They had nothing else with which to defend their Leader. He was exposed by the truth from Jack Smith.
What next? Their vindictive strategy against Jack Smith has failed miserably. For one brief moment, the truth was victorious over their Big Lie.
