Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Rep. James Comer (R-KY) appeared on Maria Bartiromo’s Fox show, Sunday Morning Futures, yesterday.
Jim Jordan, the House Judiciary Ranking member, said he would investigate the weaponized Justice Department. It’s the new militarized arm of the Democrat Party.
THE MILITARIZED DOJ
Rep. Jordan told Ms. Bartiromo that the person who will lead the Justice Department investigation, Jack Smith, is the man who, along with Lois Lerner, targeted and prosecuted conservatives. He did a lot more than that. He waged an unconstitutional prosecution and conviction of former Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell, targeted an Arizona Republican, and tried to smear the Citizens’ United case.
“Maria…Now think about this in the broad sense,” Jordan said. “In 2016, they spied on President Trump’s campaign. In 2018 (2017), it was the Mueller investigation…in 2020, they suppressed the Hunter Biden story just days before the most important election we have. And in 2022, 90 days before the midterm election, they raided President Trump’s home.
“And then this week, three days after President Trump announces he’s running for president, one day after Mr. Comer did his press conference, guess what? Merrick Garland says we’re going to put in as this special counsel – the very individual who was at the Justice Department and was looking for ways to prosecute the people Lois Lerner and Obama’s IRS targeted.
