Liz Cheney to Jim Jordan: 'You Fucking Did This' / President Trump and Rep. Jim Jordan spoke on ....

the phone for 10 minutes the morning of the Jan. 6 riot.

************

Said Cheney: “That fucking guy Jim Jordan. That son of a bitch.… While these maniacs are going through the
place, I’m standing in the aisle and he said, ‘We need to get the ladies away from the aisle. Let me help you.’
I smacked his hand away and told him, ‘Get away from me. You fucking did this.'”

Former President Trump and Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) spoke on the phone for 10 minutes the morning of the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol in 2021, two sources told CNN.

The two sources reviewed call records the Jan. 6 House committee received from the National Archives last month.

Jordan has previously said he spoke to Trump on the day of the Capitol riot, but has been inconsistent about when the two talked or for how long.

"I talked to the president a number of times that day, but I don't remember the times," Jordan told CNN on Friday when questioned about the 10-minute call.

Jordan said he could “not recall” when the two specifically talked, but said he knows “I talked to him after we left off the floor.”

Kick Gym out of Congress now and then lock him and TFG up. No wonder why TFG was working so hard to hide
the White House Records and Gym was working so hard to get onto the Jan. 6th committee and at the same time
avoiding giving any testimony.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., has vetoed two Republican nominees to the panel set to investigate the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

Citing "statements and actions" made by the pair — Reps. Jim Banks of Indiana and Jim Jordan of Ohio — Pelosi said she was rejecting their nominations "with respect for the integrity of the investigation."

"The unprecedented nature of January 6th demands this unprecedented decision," Pelosi said.

BTW Speaker Pelosi offered to set up a bipartisan commission and the GOP said no.

**********

Attempts to establish a bipartisan panel to look into the storming of the Capitol by a pro-Trump mob have been marked by partisan squabbling. Senate Republicans blocked an attempt to name an independent commission, which led to a near-party-line vote to create a select committee.

The committee is one of several efforts to investigate what led to the insurrection and what happened that day. The federal investigation is one of the largest in history, with more than 500 arrests so far.

Pelosi said she spoke to McCarthy on Tuesday morning about the impact that Banks' and Jordan's appointments "may have on the integrity of the investigation."
