A few articles and a Tucker interview about Jim Jordan and google funding, it seems as though not as bad as it appeared on the face. Details matter. Jordan has always seemed like a fighter on the right side.

Fox News’ Tucker Carlson told House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, to explain “what the consequences are going to be” for Big Tech companies that censor conservative viewpoints after Jordan blasted the leaders of Google, Facebook and other tech giants at a subcommittee hearing.
“Big Tech’s out to get conservatives, that’s clearly true,” the “Tucker Carlson Tonight” host told Jordan. “It’s time they face the consequences. There are too many frustrated viewers out there who don’t think Republicans have forced them to face any consequences for the past four years. Tell us, simply, what the consequences are going to be.”
“Google is your second-biggest campaign contributor in the last cycle,” Carlson told Jordan. “Why do you think they would give you money?”
“Look, if they want to exercise their First Amendment liberties to give me money — I raised $3 million last quarter,” Jordan fired back. “If Google gives me a few thousand-dollar check, God bless them. That doesn’t change who I am.”

Jim Jordan Sides With Big Tech Over Conservative Opposition, Jordan Responds

On Thursday, his Judiciary staff communications director fired off this statement to Newsmax: “I don’t know who orchestrated this lazy and disingenuous editorial disguised as a news piece of Mr. Jordan, but there is no one tougher in Congress on Big Tech than him.
“There are some really important and good provisions in these bills, but the centerpiece of all this legislation is a vehicle to set aside hundreds of millions of dollars for the Biden FTC and DOJ, who have been on a crusade for woke capitalism, and that’s something Mr. Jordan has serious concerns about.
“This legislation does not even address Big Tech censorship, but it does empower Joe Biden and Big Government. Giving the Biden DOJ and FTC more money to ‘take on’ Big Tech is an answer only the Swamp can come up with. Mr. Jordan has released a REAL proposal to take on Big Tech, which you can read here. We’re very disappointed Newsmax didn’t reach out for comment prior to this article running.”

Jim Jordan’s history is good - he’s proven himself to be on the right side.
Why Tucker, who works for an entity that won’t let its employees mention the stolen election, decided to attack Jordan is beyond me. Unless it was theater.
Jordan, huh? In October.
Guess accepting $ for promoting NIH/FDA messaging came with a catch or two.
