Jim Jordon talked with trump for ten minutes BEFORE the 1/6 attack. What is he trying to hide?

[JimH52]

The subject of this thread is Jordan who along with you is another one of Trump's gutless ass eaters.

Why doesn't Jordan just appear at the hearing & tell his side of it? He won't because he's a coward with a big mouth.

If he has "nothing to hide"...what is he hiding for?

If Congressman Jim Jordan really has ‘nothing to hide,’ he’ll talk to Jan. 6 panel

Making Jordan talk is another critical step toward getting to the bottom of the disgraceful acts that played out before the world nearly a year ago.

Rep. Jordan really isn't "hiding" at all, as he is in plain sight.

He just isn't going to cooperate with his sworn enemies on this Fake Committee.

After all, since they didn't allow him to serve on the committee, they are hiding something from him.

 

[Lesh]

So, you're saying that the president and members of his own party shouldn't talk about a crisis that is happening as they speak?

What were they talking about? Were they trying to deal with it or were they PLANNING it. Checking its progress...

They didn't let him on the committee because he was potentially (as this phone call shows) a SUBJECT of the investigation

You will never know what they talked about, and that has you triggered.

Let's stick with Jim Jordan.

A poster prudently suggested two salient points that are starting to get buried in the detritus of the thread. Poster Clipper appropriately directs us where we should go with this thread topic:

"The subject of this thread is Jordan........Why doesn't Jordan just appear at the hearing & tell his side of it?"

OK, with that said ----- didja see this morning's opinion piece in The Hill? If not, I've pulled some quotes below as a taster. You can then go to The Hill's website (no paywall) and read the whole enchilada.

And yes, as a spoiler alert, it is critical of Jordan. However, what is interesting is that it has the man-bites-dog aspect. Meaning, The Hill is owned by Jimmy Finklestein, one of DTrump's regular golfing buddies. Yet, Finklestein's own publication is publishing a rather skeptical view of Jordan's evasions.

Here's a taster:

Jordan is ranting against Jan. 6 committee staff​

BY KRIS KOLESNIK, 02/15/22 09:30 AM

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) just had a very telling little meltdown on Fox News’s “The Ingraham Angle,” ranting against the make-up of the House Jan. 6 select committee staff. His big concern? The committee has brought in too many former prosecutors. This is not a criminal investigation, he says.​

Jordan’s criticism is both irrelevant and ignorant; perhaps, more generously, he’s playing provocateur.

The committee has staffed up with 14 or so ex-prosecutors because: a) the task is vast; b) they have the resources to hire well-trained lawyers who have handled complex federal cases; and c) typical congressional staffers just can’t handle such a colossal undertaking.

Jordan’s rant comes after his infamous, tongue-tied ‘hummina, hummina’ moment when an Ohio reporter asked him on camera if he had spoken to the president on Jan. 6 “before, during or after the attack on the Capitol.” Jordan’s squirming response suggested that he was afraid the reporter was going to pin him down where Jordan didn’t want to be pinned.

It also comes after a “Just Security” report from last August detailed just how central a role Jordan played in aiding and abetting Trump’s misinformation campaign before and after the election, his lead role in spreading Trump’s “Big Lie,” and his furtive efforts to stop the certification of Joe Biden as president.

If Jordan was worried that a local reporter might pin him down on such a simple question, wait till he gets 14 former prosecutors on his case. Not only are they hired because of their experience in sprawling, complex federal cases such as going after the mob or terrorists,...........

A normal congressional committee, House or Senate, is not capable of this kind of investigation. They have neither the resources nor the know-how. Normally, a committee is lucky to have three or four investigators, except for the two oversight committees in the House and Senate. A committee can augment its investigative staff by borrowing — on detail, usually for one to two years — experienced investigators from various federal agencies. Typically, committees have one or two such detailees.

In addition to hiring investigators, these select committees always brought in outside legal talent, usually on loan from major law firms. Michael Chertoff was brought in by Chairman Alphonse D’Amato (R-N.Y.) for the Whitewater investigation; Chairman John F. Kerry (D-Mass) of the Senate POW/MIA committee brought in Boston lawyer Bill Codinha, and so on. They brought in other attorneys as well.

But not 14 of them.
Perhaps that’s why there’s a spot of nervousness in Trump World’s House annex.

However, 14 former prosecutors on the Jan. 6 committee won’t ensure a successful outcome. That would come only by effectively marshaling the evidence and orchestrating it in a persuasive way in public hearings.

It remains to be seen if this committee will successfully orchestrate its hearings.
We’ll know by spring.

Its first crack at orchestration came last summer when the witnesses were four Capitol Police officer victims who heroically defended the Capitol on Jan. 6. Now we need to see if the committee can identify the good guys and bad guys, reveal the plot and demonstrate the moral.

Adding to the pressure are the Senate Republicans, who have pushed back against the recent Republican National Committee attack on GOP House members Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), vocal critics of former President Trump, for their participation on the committee. That resistance and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-Ky.) apparent defense of the committee’s core mission constitute additional bipartisan credibility for the committee.

In recent weeks, details have emerged about what happened leading up to and on Jan. 6. Many are surprised at how clear the picture is becoming. I’m sure that hasn’t been lost on Rep. Jordan ......

In the weeks ahead, as that picture becomes ever clearer, I expect the decibel level ....... to go higher.

When a crisis happens, the president and others need to be communicating with people. It's is the left's very active imagination going haywire. We don't need to investigate the president and members of Congress, etc every single time there is a national crisis. This is purely political.

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

They discussing what an idiot you are.

That would have taken way more than ten minutes.

Jim Jordan 'Trying to Hide' Something on 1/6 Trump Call, Suggests McGovern

The congressman urged his House colleague to "speak honestly about what happened that awful day."

www.newsweek.com

Jordon needs to tell the January 6th committee what he knows about the January 6th attack.

They were discussing how half of the liberals were abused at some point, while the other half pretend they were.

 

[Chillicothe]

This is purely political.

Ummm, THAT!
True that!

Trump inciting and unleashing his MAGAHat rioters was....clearly, obviously, manifestly......a political tactic.

Get the Duped & Snookered MAGAHats to stop the counting, get LapDancing Mikey to turn back certified EC ballots they didn't like, declare a national emergency, and throw the election back to state houses with GOP majorities.

Pure political.

What in hell were the Democrat filth trying to hide when the strongly resisted an audit of the Democrat controlled swing districts in the 2020 Presidential election?

Huh?

 

[Claudette]

According to many reports I've read she sure did. Dummy.

 

[Chillicothe]

Ah, they didn't poor poster Flash.
I think I've read that they did want justified and responsible audits of GOP and Democrat jurisdiction where warranted.

But Rudy Shirttucker, and KrakenPot Powell, and Lin Wood, and Jenna Ellis and DTrump only wanted audits of Democrat states, refusing to ask for audits in those suspect GOP states.


Why didn't you know that?
