Jim Jordan Responds to January 6 Committee Meeting Request, Rejects Legitimacy of Investigation

[Foolardi]

What insurrection was that?? Don't tell me you are still mouthing that bullshit??

Most have been charged with trespassing. Any that broke laws will land in court.

As far as camera's go. I for one would like to know who the camera people were who were in the Capital Buildings while Trump was still speaking. They weren't Trump supporters and how did they know there would be anything worth recording.

Oh and how bout Epps and Sullivan?? Lets not forget Pelousy refused the Capital Police request for aid five time??

Fishy?? You bet.

Ray and John { Epps and Sullivan } got cut some slack.Yeah right,
Instead ... Tell it to the Judge.Say ... Sock it to me ... Sock it to me.
Eventually the streaming amounts of miscaricatures of January 6th will be
exposed for what they were.And those who made it possible.
Not One Politician was confronted let alone shot at like in
1954 where inside the Capitol Bldg. from the Ladies Gallery,four
Puerto Rican nationalists fired 30 rounds.5 representatives were injured and we have the
pistol types used { Walther P38 9mm,Luger P08 9 mm,artillery luger 9 mm. }
So much for the Lying Frauds explaining January 6th.
Not one fire was started or Malatov cocktail tossed.No one was killed
on January 6th except the 14 yr. Female Vet who was pushed into the
corridor by a storming mob.John Sullivan was caught on Video nearby..
What was the Little BLM/ANTIFA Hashtag rat doing.We'll never know.
Maybe someone could ask the Republican female Rat Liz Cheney.

 

[Mac1958]

So much for saying he has nothing to hide.

I guess we're going to see if congressional committee subpoenas matter any more.

Of course, this goes both ways, when the GOP is running one.

 

[colfax_m]

oh I didn't know you wanted to talk about that...we can...there was nothing deplorable about the text...the undoctored text.


what was deplorable was that Shifty and this committee felt the need to doctor the text....that in fact is a crime...https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/1519

"Whoever knowingly alters, destroys, mutilates, conceals, covers up, falsifies, or makes a false entry in any record, document, or tangible object with the intent to impede, obstruct, or influence the investigation or proper administration of any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or agency of the United States or any case filed under title 11, or in relation to or contemplation of any such matter or case, shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both."

Will Garland do the right thing and prosecute Shifty, and this Committee?

Of course it’s deplorable. Pence has no authority to decide which of our votes count and don’t count.

It’s deplorable to think that such an action would ever be considered in a country that actually respects our right to self determination. This is not something Jordan seems to believe.

No, it's not...everything in the text describe was a perfectly legal process. Pence doesn't decide if your vote counts, Congress wasn't doing that that day, they were certifng electoral votes from the electorial college, and there is certainly a process in which those votes can be challenged and not cerfitifed by the VP.

This wasn't the first time votes had been objected to....heck, not even the first time this century, dems did it in 2016, 2000, and 2004.

I agree in part. Pence doesn’t decide vote counts. Jordan was suggesting Pence could decide some states had no electoral votes based solely on an individual belief.

We aren’t talking about Congressional challenges here. We are talking about unilateral decision by the VP to throw our electoral votes in the trash.

That’s not legal. It’s deplorable.

 

[eddiew37]

Love it, Jordan should publicly tell them to piss up a rope.

.

Jordan is a coward a liar and a traitor

So much for 'nothing to hide': Jim Jordan balks at Jan. 6 probe - Rep. Jim Jordan said in July, in reference to the Jan. 6 investigation, "If they call me, I got nothing to hide." He's since changed his mind.​

Two faced lying hypocrites all. HRC endured 11 hours of testifying under oath for the ridiculous Benghazi investigation and the Repubs didn't lay a glove on her. These Republicans aren't man enough to put their money where their mouth is. They are rats sneaking around behind the scenes and tried to destroy the pillar of American democracy by scheming to overturn a valid election of a president. Cowards all, trembling ....offering pitiful excuses. HRC puts each and everyone of them to shame. Jordan is a putrid cowardly lying piece of shit and he has proven that before.

 

[Nuthin' Fancy]

Congress can conduct oversight, not criminal investigations...geez

OMG, even the Trump cult must make you take the shorter bus to Trump's pity rallies.

WTF do you think the Hillary investigating was?
I apologize, I insulted retards in an earlier post by calling you one.

You'll have to ask Eric Holder on that.

Jim Jordan Responds to January 6 Committee Meeting Request, Rejects Legitimacy of Investigation​

Jordan Responds to Jan. 6 Committee Request, Rejects Legitimacy of Investigation

Rep. Jim Jordan denounced the January 6 committee's request to meet with him as being “outside the bounds of any legitimate inquiry.”

www.breitbart.com

9 Jan 2022 ~~ By Ashley Oliver
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) formally replied on Sunday to the January 6 select committee’s request to meet with him as part of its investigation, denouncing the request as “outside the bounds of any legitimate inquiry.”
Jordan gave his reply in a letter obtained by Breitbart News and addressed to committee chair Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS) after weeks of reviewing the committee’s request, which was made December 22.
“This request is far outside the bounds of any legitimate inquiry, violates core Constitutional principles, and would serve to further erode legislative norms,” Jordan wrote.
Read a copy of the letter below:

~Snip~
Perry, for his part, outright rejected the committee’s request on December 21, immediately after the committee contacted him.
Thompson indicated a week ago during an appearance on NBC’s Meet the Press that he is exploring whether the committee can legally subpoena sitting members of Congress. “I think there are some questions of whether we have the authority to do it,” Thompson said. “We’re looking at it. If the authorities are there, there’ll be no reluctance on our part.”
Breitbart News has reached out to Thompson’s office for comment on if and how he plans to respond to Jordan’s response to the committee.

Commentary:
It has already been established that Adam Schiff has been caught for the second time manufacturing and tampering with evidence. This time for the Jan 6th Witch Hunt.
Fact Check: Did Adam Schiff 'Tamper' With Jim Jordan Jan. 6 Evidence in Meadows Hearing?
Thusly the 'Select Committee' Investigating was illegitimate to begin with and Schiff has made it doubly so.
Meanwhile, why hasn't the 'Select Committee' asked or subpoenaed Clair Zoe Lofgren, Pelosi, or any other Democrat Congress person?
Why hasn't the FBI released the 15,000 hours of video.

GREAT QUESTION, Why hasn't the FBI released the 15,000 hours of video?

It's because those supporting the left are tarded. But really, although that point carries a lot of validity, our Democrooks are the same fucks who stole the election, so go figure they have lots to hide.

They're not releasing the video because OBVIIOUSLY by doing so they lose the theme that 10s of zillions rioted for a big ass insurrection melting snowflakes everywhere and stealing our democracy, oh my!

The Obama admin. was dirty as fuck, but that was just a precursor.

Message to leftists for condoning your party, for your corrupt misfiring heads, and for supporting the likes of near every democrat position in existence.............

hahah no he wasn't. Geez...did you read the undoctored text? This was the text that Jordan forwarded Meadows "“On January 6, 2021, Vice President Mike Pence, as President of the Senate, should call out all electoral votes that he believes are unconstitutional as no electoral votes at all — in accordance with guidance from founding father Alexander Hamilton and judicial precedence. 'No legislative act,' wrote Alexander Hamilton in Federalist No. 78, 'contrary to the Constitution, can be valid.' The court in Hubbard v. Lowe reinforced this truth: 'That an unconstitutional statute is not a law at all is a proposition no longer open to discussion.' 226 F. 135, 137 (SDNY 1915), appeal dismissed, 242 U.S. 654 (1916). Following this rationale, an unconstitutionally appointed elector, like an unconstitutionally enacted statute, is no elector at all.’”

This is the process that the VP can toss electors...https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/3/15

"the President of the Senate shall call for objections, if any. Every objection shall be made in writing, and shall state clearly and concisely, and without argument, the ground thereof, and shall be signed by at least one Senator and one Member of the House of Representatives before the same shall be received. When all objections so made to any vote or paper from a State shall have been received and read, the Senate shall thereupon withdraw, and such objections shall be submitted to the Senate for its decision; and the Speaker of the House of Representatives shall, in like manner, submit such objections to the House of Representatives for its decision; and no electoral vote or votes from any State which shall have been regularly given by electors whose appointment has been lawfully certified to according to section 6 of this title from which but one return has been received shall be rejected, but the two Houses concurrently may reject the vote or votes when they agree that such vote or votes have not been so regularly given by electors whose appointment has been so certified. "

So as President of the Senate, there is a process in which Pence, could toss electors out, but it's not unilateral.

This is the problem, you've been lied to by the committee

It start as oversight on what happened at an embassy, then as it was discovered she had a secret email with classifed material on it, it became oversight of how the State Departments policies were on classified material.

It was not a criminal probe...the Obama DOJ took that up on themselves.

Sorry, you are so misinformed on the reality of the situation

 

[Orangecat]

The insurrection attempt

There was no insurrection attempt.

 

[ConserveGuy]

At this point it be brilliant if that rigged committee tries to throw mindless subpoenas. Anyone who receives them should give it the middle finger and refuse to join. Nothing to lose rejecting their political bias group. Main reason why because the majority of the public will soon to realize how much wasting of tax payer money and time this is. There is more important things at hand.

In as easy to uderstand terms that even a garden variety Harvard-educated
smart ass can understand.Pelosi and this lunkhead Bennie
could understand.As questionable legitimate Congressional authority for Subpoena.
As explained by constitutional scholar John Eastman.
Eastman formerly Chapman University head explains simply why
in an Investigative role Pelosi cannot force someone to respond
to a subpoena to answer the January 6th Investigations questioning.
Meaning Pelosi and Jughead Bennie are attempting to use subpoena
power to have those subpoena's testify and answer questions in order
to establish any " guilt " or " innocence " in order to do what.?
To make Criminal Referrals to the Justice Dept.!
Therefore it is totally within the bounds of our 5th Amendment right to
not be a witness Against himself.Or herself.By way of a subpoena.

This is the problem, you've been lied to by the committee

Jordan was suggesting Pence just toss votes out but you're confusing it with the legal process for Congress to object to votes.

These are clearly difference.

Jordan didn't want to use the legal process. Know. why? Because it would fail. The process by which Congress can object to electoral votes requires majorities in the Senate and House, which they didn't have. Their only option was to have Pence toss the votes himself, which is what Jordan was encouraging.

That's deplorable.

Catchword for swamp democrat leaders to throw red meat to their unhinged supporters.... "insurrection!".

No, no he wasn't....he clearly forwarded a text discussing the legal process in which it can be done...and highlighted the legal precedent for it....

Sorry, I think you were conned by Shifty when he provided you with the "parody" text from Jordan

Regardless though, what does it matter? A person can send another person a text message..there was nothing wrong with it.

The process he described has no foundation in law. It would be a totally unprecedented and unconstitutional interference. No where in any law or precedent has the VP been given any authority to declare what is and isn’t a constitutional electoral vote. Allowing him to do so would make him judge jury and executioner over the electoral system that he himself is actively participating in. (There is no citation of a legal precedent that applies here, the case mentioned is irrelevant).

The text message revels that Jordan has very undemocratic impulses and should be ashamed.

" Jordan rejects the legitimacy of the investigation?" This coming from the guy who wanted to be on the select committee to investigate January6th.
