Jim Jordan Refuses To Cooperate With Democrats’ Jan. 6 Witch Hunt

Ohio Republican Rep. Jim Jordan said he would refuse Democrats’ request for cooperation with the House Select Committee on Jan. 6 in a letter to Chairman Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., Sunday.

In December, the House panel to which Jordan’s minority appointment was barred by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi demanded the prominent Freedom Caucus member answer questions over his decision to oppose certification of the 2020 election results.

Democrats’ request, Jordan wrote, “amounts to an unprecedented and inappropriate demand to examine the basis for a colleague’s decision on a particular matter pending before the House of Representatives.”

“I have no relevant information that would assist the Select Committee in advancing any legitimate legislative purpose,” Jordan added, who is the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee with no authority over Capitol security. “I cannot speak to Speaker Pelosi’s failure to ensure the appropriate security posture at the Capitol complex in advance of well-publicized protests on January 6, 2021.”

"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 to committee chair Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., according to Axios.

"As you well know, I have no relevant information that would assist the Select Committee in advancing any legitimate legislative purpose," Jordan adds.

Jan. 6 panel fires back at Jordan over refusal to cooperate
By Rebecca Beitsch - 01/10/22 01:32 PM EST

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol accused Rep. Jim Jordan of backtracking on his commitment to cooperate after the Ohio Republican said Sunday he would refuse to voluntarily appear before the panel.

“Mr. Jordan has previously said that he would cooperate with the committee’s investigation, but it now appears that the Trump team has persuaded him to try to hide the facts and circumstances of January 6th. The Select Committee will respond to this letter in more detail in the coming days and will consider appropriate next steps,” a committee spokesperson said Monday.

Jordan previously said he has “nothing to hide” with regard to his actions surrounding Jan. 6.

Darn good letter .. 

I agree it's a very good letter.  Too bad that many will not see this letter and the narrative will always be that the evil GOP Jordan refused to cooperate.  The reasons will never be known to many.
