Jim Jordan Busted For Multiple Calls With Trump On 1/6


Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) has been so evasive about his conversations with Trump because he had multiple calls with him on 1/6.

Politico reported:

We know that DONALD TRUMP and Rep. JIM JORDAN spoke once on the day of the Capitol riot, but the Ohio Republican has said he doesn’t remember when their conversation took place. We have some new details that could help clear up that timeframe — including confirmation of at least one more phone conversation between Jordan and the then-president during the siege.

After a group of lawmakers were evacuated from the House chamber to a safe room on Jan. 6, Jordan was joined by Rep. MATT GAETZ( R-Fla.) for a call during which they implored Trump to tell his supporters to stand down, per a source with knowledge of that call. The source declined to say how Trump responded to this request.

Jim Jordan Is Hiding 1/6 Facts To Protect Himself And Trump

Jim Jordan had claimed when asked by reporters that he doesn’t remember when he talked to the former president on January 6, but it is now clear that he had multiple conversations with Trump, including one that occurred after members of Congress were evacuated from the House chamber.

Jordan is covering up to protect Donald Trump and protect himself. He has refused to talk about his conversations with Trump on 1/6 as nobody is buying his sudden loss of memory related to the conversations that occurred on 1/6.

Jim Jordan and Kevin McCarthy both have information that would be damaging to Trump, and they are trying to bury it because it could doom Republicans in 2022 and 2024.

Nothing suspicious about general counsel for Rosneft and Gazprom being made FBI Director

Remember the dossier?

@Strandjunker
He and Kavanaugh were members of the right-wing Federalist Society.

He and Kavanaugh worked together in the G.W. Bush administration.

He led the Kavanaugh investigation, and ignored 4,500 tips to make Brett a SCOTUS justice.

Why is Christopher Wray still FBI director, @POTUS?

38. Director Wray needs to resign or be fired

I stated this a couple of weeks ago, the President needs to fire Wray and get a director that will investigate the Trump administration. Kavanaugh and the Trump administration hid text messages where Kavanaugh told people not to cooperate with the investigation. I read that a couple of years ago after he was confirmed. We need to raise our voices and have the Democrats intervene and investigate these claims. Remember Wray is a Republican. Party over Country is their motto.

4. May he be so doomed

They deserve to be in the dustbin of the dustbin of history. Regular rubbish isn’t rubbish enough. Be gone.

Maybe the wingers aren’t right and demons do exist. If so, he is one.

[MontanaMama]

5. Is he truly busted if there are no consequences?

[DeeDeeNY]

7. Excellent point

Without consequences, none of this means anything.

[Lonestarblue]

8. No consequences unless Jordan, Gaetz, and McCarthy turn on one another.

Without testimony of what was said, there’s no proof that any of them were coordinating with Trump on how his insurrection was going.

[yellowdogintexas]

26. I'd pay to watch that fight!!! If it happens pay per view access should be offered

at a very reasonable price .

[Tiger8]

12. Yes, if no prison, defeat or lawsuits

What honestly is the point of all this?

Ole Gymbo certainly has not one moral cell in his body - and neither do the evil people who will continue to support him.

[paleotn]

14. Good point. Unless there's evidence of crime(s)

that Justice is willing to prosecute, probably not. Donnie isn't the first to realize he could shoot people and yet the proles would vote for him anyway. Same for Gym. Even without the gerrymandering, his district hasn't gone to the Dems since the 1930's.

[PatSeg]

45. And if his supporters don't care if he lied

The republican base does not seem to care if their representatives lie, cheat, or even commit crimes. All is fair in love and war, and to them politics IS war and truth doesn't matter.

[George II]

6. I remember him during an interview a couple of weeks ago:

[AZLD4Candidate]

30. How he sounds all the time

[Kid Berwyn]

9. Jan. 6 spells Doom to Republicans

It’s the one good thing about it.

[FoxNewsSucks]

15. It should,

but it will happen only if Democrats are able to get this completed in a timely manner.

Without S1 passing, the dirty trickery republicons have been working on will give them back the House, and probably the Senate. They will stop all investigations, destroy all evidence, declare themselves innocent and persecuted. And they will immediately begin investigating Pelosi, Schiff etc along with numerous impeachment attempts of Biden.

Because of Manchin, Sinema and the damn Senate. So the House has to get this done, it can't be allowed to drag out or republicons win.

[Kid Berwyn]

22. Absolutely.

The decision to put off dragging the guilty in front of the cameras for the nation and all the world to see on prime time during Impeachment 2 appears to me as a strategic blunder of epic proportions. Perhaps there’s something bigger and better ahead, although proving Trump and Co. guilty of treason would go a long way to putting them on the ash heap of history.

[uponit7771]

42. Yep, we should error on the side of putting these bastards in jail by the dozens

[LiberalLovinLug]

10. Gym Jordan and Matt Gaetz "implored Trump to tell his supporters to stand down"

The fact that THIS is what they don't want to get out is so disturbing on a few levels.

[yonder]

21. Good point. Small, conniving minds the both of them.

[smb]

43. More Likely...

...that's the story they cooked up to cover their butts now that they can't hide the fact that they repeatedly talked to Cheato.

[PatSeg]

46. Yes and the fact that

they are more afraid of what Trump will think of them, than their constituents.

[bucolic_frolic]

11. Conversations with the President to discuss overthrowing the government, or preventing such, should

not be privileged information because that is far outside the legal duties of elected officials (as DOJ told us a couple months back).

[spanone]

13. just another lying motherhumping republicon...subpoena him NOW!!!!

[Stuart G]

16. Great Post...&..Thank You...Guess who is deep trouble.. "Multiple Conversations with Trump".&...

proof that Mr. Trump is in deeper than anyone ever thought...K and R.....So are Jim Jordan & Matt Gaetz......

...Jordan & Gaetz are also in trouble....Not a little, but ....A Whole Lot.!!!

[Cracklin Charlie]

17. Jordan and Gates did the "right thing"?

By asking the insurrectionists to “stand down”? Sounds like Jordan and Gates wrote this article. I think I’ll wait for the transcripts of their calls.

“Stand down” from what? I thought it was a peaceful tourist visit. “Stand down” is something said to soldiers. What did Jordan and Gaetz know prior to these “tourist’s”visit?

36. Pelosi was smart to put her on the select committee.

She knows things.

[Turbineguy]

20. Doing the right thing

gets you un-elected as a republican.

[malaise]

19. McCarthy should be censured for appointing Jordan to subvert

the Select Committee.
These people are beyond evil.

[mopinko]

23. lemme get this straight- tfg didnt cause the mayhem, but

these goons who were in on it called him, and begged him to make him stop.
wonder who else they called.

[Champp]

25. Republicans who violated their oath and betrayed America deserve justice

They must wrestle The Violater to get a taste of their own foul treason against the the truth, against America, and against their own sworn oaths to the US Constitution.

[Greybnk48]

27. So everyone knew who was in charge of the attempted coup.

They tried to get him to call it off.

[dalton99a]

28. +1

[onetexan]

31. Yessiree its damning as heck for the Con

Jordan isn't going to be able to sweep ybis under the rug.

[AZLD4Candidate]

29. My great grandmother with dementia (God rest her soul) had a better memory than most Republicans

"I don't remember" is as pathetic an excuse as "that's classified."

[onetexan]

32. They conveniently dont remember, thats the difference

[AZLD4Candidate]

34. Selective Dementia is not a legal defense, nor does it look good to the public

except if you are in a safe Republican district, which his is a PVI of R+20, and your voters drink the Trump kool-aid by the barrel and often inject it.

33. george takei tweets:

One takeaway from Jim Jordan and Matt Gaetz calling and begging Trump to tell the rioters to stand down on Jan 6 is that they apparently believed Trump had full control over Antifa.

[lagomorph777]

49. Hah!

[Aerator]

35. And 5 days later trump was giving him the Medal of Freedom

[NullTuples]

39. Not busted, just revealed.

I'm starting to lose faith any of them will ever get "busted" by the things they've done.

[sheshe2]

40. I don't believe Gym and Mattie...

I don't believe Gym and Mattie were on the phone simply to call it off. They were part of the planning, saw it got out of hand and were covering their ass.

[calimary]

52. That sounds most logical. Two weasels knowing they may well be

cornered.

I certainly hope so!

That means someone lower down is likely to sing to try to save himself. There’s no honor among thieves (certainly not THESE thieves).

[Joinfortmill]

41. 👍

[Calista241]

44. This isn't surprising and I kind of expected it.

I wonder who else will have called Trump on Jan 6th. I bet there will be a lot of names on that list, and a bunch of them will be on our team.

[mrsadm]

47. I cannot wait until Trump, Jordan, Gaetz are in jail

I want it so much! It's the only thing that will make me feel better about this country, and what we will or will not put up with!

[lagomorph777]

48. Gym Jerkin just got towel-snapped.

...couldn't remember the time of the calls, because there were so many calls.

[Silent3]

50. Afghanistan, COVID, Hurricane, gas prices probably going up because of the hurricane...

...all to be blamed on Biden, naturally. Who's going to even notice this other news?

[onetexan]

51. Oh the fast talking idiot now forced to admit his calls w the Con

"Look, I definitely spoke to the president that day. I don't recall—I know it was more than once, I just don't recall the times," Jordan told Politico. The congressman said he was "sure" that at least one of the calls took place while he and other lawmakers were hunkered down in a safe room "because we were in that room forever."

The congressman did not tell the publication the specifics of what he discussed with Trump, but asserted that he had wanted the National Guard to get involved to address the riot.
