Please enlighten me as to how many subpoenas he has issued from his post on Judiciary. And how many of those have lead to indictments. Maybe that's what you meant when you said "more effective."
The truth is, I like Jordan. He makes for great tv with his yelling and hand-waving. He's like Trey Gowdy. Sound and fury that ultimately signifies nothing. Bark, no bite. And that's fine. We need people like him in Congress. But to think he will actually do something is foolhardy, IMHO. He has a proven record of doing nothing substantive.
“Please enlighten me as to how many subpoenas”
Not sure but I think that McCarthy had to approve any subpoenas and didn’t.
On May 2, 2014, Jordan introduced House Resolution 565, “Calling on Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr., to appoint a special counsel to investigate the targeting of conservative nonprofit groups by the Internal Revenue Service”. It passed on May 7, 2014.[44] Holder, who had previously been found to be in contempt of Congress, failed to appoint a special counsel to investigate the alleged procedural abuses of IRS employees, including Lois Lerner.
In March 2017, Jordan criticized the newly introduced American Health Care Act, the Republican replacement bill for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, calling it an unacceptable form of “Obamacare Lite”.[45] On May 4, 2017, he voted to pass a revised version of the legislation.[46][47]
On June 13, 2018, Jordan and Representative Mark Meadows filed a resolution to compel the Department of Justice to provide certain documents to Congress relating to the ongoing congressional investigations of Russian interference in the 2016 election. The resolution asserted that the DOJ was stonewalling congressional oversight and sought to give the DOJ seven days from its enactment to turn over documents related to both Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller as well as various decisions made by the FBI during the 2016 presidential election. Jordan issued a press release that stated:
This resolution gives the DOJ seven days to turn over the documents that they owe Congress. Rod Rosenstein threatened congressional staff. When the bully picks on your little brother, you have to respond. It’s time for House Leadership to stand up and pass this resolution.[48]
On July 25, 2018, Jordan and Meadows introduced articles of impeachment against Rosenstein, whom they accused of “intentionally withholding embarrassing documents and information, knowingly hiding material investigative information from Congress, various abuses of the FISA process, and failure to comply with congressional subpoenas”. Jordan stated that impeachment was necessary because:
The DOJ is keeping information from Congress. Enough is enough. It’s time to hold Mr. Rosenstein accountable for blocking Congress’s constitutional oversight role.[49][50]
Jordan and Representative Warren Davidson were the only members of Ohio’s congressional delegation and two of 60 members of Congress to vote in October 2019 against a bipartisan resolution that passed the House 354–60 condemning Trump’s unilateral withdrawal of U.S. military forces from Syria.[51][52][53]
