Weâre sure glad weâre not Jim Jordan.
Last week, the January 6 committee issued subpoenas to five House Republicans, including the former college wrestling coach/homophobic congressman.
Jordan was previously asked to appear before the committee voluntarily, but he refused, claiming he had âno relevant informationâ that would help the investigation.
â Rep. Jim Jordan (@Jim_Jordan) January 10, 2022
But committee members, who obtained text messages sent by Jordan to Mark Meadows in the days leading up to the deadly insurrection, felt otherwise.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
âThe Select Committee has learned that several of our colleagues have information relevant to our investigation into the attack on January 6th and the events leading up to it,â Rep. Bennie Thompson said in a statement on Thursday.
âRegrettably, the individuals receiving subpoenas today have refused and weâre forced to take this step to help ensure the committee uncovers facts concerning January 6th.â
In addition to texting with Meadows, Jordan had at least one phone call with Donald Trump on January 6, and he was at White House days earlier participating in conversations with other lawmakers about how they might overturn the election results.
The committee hasnât said how it plans to enforce Jordanâs subpoena, but his refusal to testify could result in contempt referrals to the Justice Department.
So howâs he reacting to all this? In typical Jim Jordan fashion, of course! By distracting and deflecting and doing everything he can not to talk about it.
Yesterday, Jordan went on Fox News to plug his new book. When Maria Bartiromo asked about his subpoena, he went on a nervous tangent about how the country is seeing ârecord crime, record inflation, moms that canât get baby formula, blah, blah, blahâ before calling the January 6 panel âridiculousâ and saying âseven out of 10 citizens think the country is on the wrong track.â

Then this morning, he tweeted some nonsense about Hunter Bidenâs laptop and the Trump/Russia scandal, writing:Â âDonât forget, the same people that told you Hunter Bidenâs laptop was fake, pushed Michael Sussmanâs phony Russia narrative for years.â

Unfortunately for Jordan, his tactics donât appear to be working.
Hereâs how people are responding to his tweetsâŚ
Donât forget, the same person still tweeting about Hunter Biden 3 years later hasnât gotten one piece of legislation passed in 15 years. Wonder why. https://t.co/1wFBWvvuEv

Why wonât @Jim_Jordan honor a subpoena and testify? What did he do on January 6 that he canât say out loud?
â Maryellen (@raggedymary) May 15, 2022
Congrats again on the subpoena, Gym! I bet all those wrestlers you turned a blind eye to will be tuning in!
â Blue Blooded Patriot đşđŚ (@BluePatriotGuy) May 16, 2022
Donât forget the same people who let 45 off the hook for blackmailing another world leader into throwing the US election, decided to scale the wall and steal OUR vote.
Gym was on the phone coordinating it.

When you receive your subpoena, it is YOUR DUTY to comply.
Otherwise we live in country where law makers think they are above the law.â Michael V Smith (@MichaelVSmith7) May 15, 2022
Donât forget, the same people that told you an insurrection wasnât one, also turned their head to other things. pic.twitter.com/DiUoEneTBJ

This doesnât negate the fact that the Jan 6th committee has your phone records Gym. Itâs going to be a long summer for you bro.
â Facts Strike Nerves (@StrikeNerves) May 15, 2022
Donât forget Jordan who keeps changing his story wonât testify under oath.
â Brenda Lee đˇ (@BrendaLeeNY) May 16, 2022
Donât forget âŚSussman is charged (trial just starting) with a single count of making a false statement to the FBI .
Imagine how many harmful false statements Gym Jordan has made. Why wonât the guy âwho has nothing to hideâ testify??
â Justice For Hedgehogs đŚâď¸ (@LakeLouise1988) May 16, 2022
Next month, the January 6 panel will begin televising hearings during primetime hours. The committee hasnât said who will be called the testified before the cameras, but it sure seems like Jordan will be among the witnesses. If heâs not sitting in a jail cell for contempt, that is.
The blockbuster TV hearings are scheduled to begin on June 9.
Jim
He’s an insurrectionist no matter how you spin it
Tammy Smith

Max
it’s pathetic our government doesn’t have an instant method of enforcing a subpoena. it’s always trying to figure the specific “what to do” whenever one doesn’t answer the call.
Kangol2
They have a method. They don’t want to use the obvious one: go send the Sergeant at Arms to arrest the noncompliant person and force them to appear before Congress.
Jaquelope
Any other average citizen, if a subpoena was ignored, would be arrested and jailed immediately. Why are lawmakers seen to be above the law?

I,m so over the GOP, all I can see is Jim Jordons gapping mouth waiting for a stiff load of log cream,
BGreen1963
No, Jordan just likes to watch. The same reason he’s accomplished nothing in all his years in office. And if he’s afraid to call out a pederast, what do people have on this lying filth?

CNY1983
it forces you to think the people in his district are as sleazy and slimy as that “tuff-guy”.
doesn’t look too good for his chances in politics, a do-nothing trump asswiper with nothing
to show in 15 years except going on some hung-over fox fake news show.

this outfit should come with a zipper in the back lol

Another Republikkkan hypocrite. My question is why did he stay silent when he witnessed boys being molested by another coach? Could it be he didnât want to ruin his own live porn show? Was he getting off on it? If these freaks were serious about going after pedophiles all they need to do is look at schools athletic programs I googled âwrestling coaches charged with rape and boy howdy there was a list a mile long. And maybe they should ask Josh Duggar what gay thing he was exposed to that made him finger his little sisters and only the deities know how many more children heâs molested. And our community has NOTHING to do with the Mormon freak that married and then raped a 12yr old girl.
And another thing if âGodâ is so damn pissed of about Trans rights or gay marriage that he sends tornadoes and hurricanes that destroy homes and kill people why is it that all of those things happen to mostly straight people in red states? Why isnât he wiping out West Hollywood, Gay Central? I was just at Drag Con, if we are do terrible why didnât he cause an earthquake. Whenever i a Republikkkan opens their mouth you can be sure they are just doing another âlook over thereâ. HYPOCRITESâŚand Jebus wept
And Jesus wept
