Whistleblower lawyer lashes out at Jordan: 'I AM TIRED OF YOU LYING IN A HOUSE COMMITTEE ROOM'


Whistleblower lawyer lashes out at Jordan: 'I AM TIRED OF YOU LYING IN A HOUSE COMMITTEE ROOM'
By John Bowden - 11/19/19 02:10 PM EST


An attorney representing a whistleblower in the intelligence community who filed an inspector general complaint at the center of the impeachment proceedings lashed out at Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) on Tuesday, accusing the congressman of lying and spreading conspiracy theories.

Andrew Bakaj tweeted Tuesday that Jordan had lied about who the unnamed whistleblower had contacted before filing a report with the intelligence community's inspector general.

"Congressman @Jim_Jordan - I AM TIRED OF YOU LYING IN A HOUSE COMMITTEE ROOM IN FRONT OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. My client hired ME - no one else in leading up to filing the disclosure with the ICIG," Bakaj tweeted, referring to the intelligence community inspector general.

"I have made that clear TIME AND TIME AGAIN - and you ignore the FACTS!" he added

Doesn’t like wearing a jacket, does he? Maybe a straitjacket would be better.

Like, for instance, the complaint by the wrestling referee who was sexually assaulted in a shower at OSU.

If his district wasn't so Gerrymandered, he'd still be lurking around university locker rooms and showers.

But the lawyer is talking about who the whistleblower HIRED. Those two aren’t the same thing. You’d think a lawyer would be more precise with his words.
