FIRST ON FOX: House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, is issuing a subpoena for information on the political work conducted by the daughter of New York State Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan.

Jordan sent a letter to Michael Nellis, the founder and CEO of Authentic Campaigns – a company that's done political work for top Democratic clients like President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris – accusing him of failing to comply with House investigators' demands for any and all documents related to the prosecution of former President Trump.

"One such conflict is Ms. Merchan’s—daughter of Judge Merchan and President of Authentic Campaigns—work on behalf of President Trump’s political adversaries and the possible financial benefit that Ms. Merchan and Authentic Campaigns received from the prosecution and conviction of President Trump."

Amazing what we let people get away with. Prosecuting political opponents AND profiting from it - this is not good.

Better late than never. Needs to result in something more than a sternly worded letter.

When Trump gets a second term, I hope he sits down with people like Jordan and has a little talk: “Jim, are you aware that the internet is full of people who laugh at you? They say that you talk a good game, but in the end it always comes down to a stern letter being sent to someone and then whatever the issue happens to be just sort of fades away. Why is that, Jim? Why do your subpoenas and investigations always lead to nothing? I’d like them to lead to something, not nothing. How can we make that happen, Jim?”

That's asking for something nearly unprecedented :)

An AG and head of the DOJ with guts and morals who wants to prosecute real criminals who undermine our Republic.

When she tells him to pound sand does she get Peter Navarro’s old cell or another letter?

It sure has taken Jordan a long time to question Merchan’s daughter, since the story of her corruption has been in the news for months.

Why is that, Jim? Why do your subpoenas and investigations always lead to nothing?

Because Congress has surrendered its power to the Fed.gov bureaucracy and intel deep-state, and its only real power - spending money - has been totally neutered by massive "Omnibus Spending" and "Continuing Resolution" spending bills, usually thousands of pages long and passed in the middle of the night.

Can anyone cite an investigation by Jim Jordan that ever amoounted to anything?

Evidently, for him, an investigation is action.

These committees just don’t have the power you think they have.
