The official report of the House Select Committee, which runs to more than 800 pages, is too deeply biased to give much help. This was foreordained given the hyper-partisan way the Select Committee was formed. Then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi rejected then-House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s two Republican appointments to the committee—Representatives Jim Jordan and Jim Banks—and instead appointed two virulently anti-Trump Republicans, Representatives Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.More important than the report’s factual errors are the serious questions never investigated by the Select Committee. Why did Democrat congressional leaders turn down repeated offers of National Guard troops to protect the...

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting which is comprised of the National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) are budgeted to receive $535 million from the federal government for FY2025. The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has recommended this funding be cut. Paula Kerger, CEO, of PBS and Katherine Maher, CEO of NPR appeared at the House of Representatives DOGE subcommittee to testify against budget cuts. Subcommittee Chair Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga) said "folks in my district listen to podcasts and internet based news. At the same time, NPR and PBS have increasingly become radical, left-wing echo...

The big, beautiful tax bill winding its way through the House and Senate just got a lot better. The House Judiciary Committee, chaired by Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio just posted the draft text of its portion of the bill yesterday and it’s a banger. They would amend the Congressional Review Act (which allows Congress to rescind costly regulatory agency regs) to correct its biggest design flaw. Even if the House and Senate vote to overturn a regulation, the president who issued the regulation can use his veto to save his own rules (except when the presidency has just changed...

In this explosive House Judiciary Committee hearing, Chairman Jim Jordan grills legal experts and witnesses over Judge Boasberg’s controversial role in high-profile Trump cases. From his decisions on FISA warrants to the "turn the plane around" order involving violent criminals, critics argue Judge Boasberg shows clear bias and should recuse himself from upcoming Trump-related cases. Former Speaker Newt Gingrich calls out a "coup" against the American people, slamming illegal actions by government agencies and suggesting Congress must act — through legislation, oversight, and the power of the purse — to restore the rule of law.

Newly declassified documents show informant Stefan Halper was motivated in part by "monetary compensation" and was paid nearly $1.2 million from FBI over three decades. ********************************************************************** Akey FBI informant in the widely-debunked Russia collusion case was paid nearly $1.2 million over three decades, was motivated in part by "monetary compensation," and continued snitching even after agents concluded he told them an inaccurate story about future Trump National Security Advisor Mike Flynn, newly declassified documents show. The nearly 700 pages of once-secret documents, obtained by Just the News, were recently turned over by FBI Director Kash Patel to House Judiciary Committee...

In yet another troubling scandal, liberal judge James Boasberg, known for temporarily blocking President Trump’s deportations of violent Venezuelan gang members, faces fresh criticism after revelations linking his daughter to a far-left nonprofit that actively opposes stricter immigration enforcement and pockets millions of taxpayer dollars. Partners in Justice, the group for which Katherine Baosberg works, is a pro-illegal immigration NGO that receives over half of its funding from USAID and other government grants; it reportedly provides legal advice and representation to criminal illegal aliens; the judge’s woke daughter, Katharine Boasberg, is employed by Partners in Justice, a progressive nonprofit that...

"We're gonna have hearing on all of that. Judge Boasberg - it starts to look like it's totally political." "You got this judge making this crazy decision - 'turn the plane around, bring the bad guys back to America.'" - @Jim_Jordan Jordan says Sen. @ChuckGrassley may also hold hearings.

It appears that Kash has turned over records related to J6 pipe bombs to House Judiciary committee per request by Jim Jordan a few weeks ago. ... Wow, imagine that — actual records on the J6 pipe bombs finally making their way to the House Judiciary, and not just buried under "ongoing investigation" excuses. Props to Kash for doing what the DOJ and FBI should have done years ago. Funny how the "most secure election ever" crowd suddenly goes silent when real evidence starts coming out. Wonder how long before the media pretends this never happened or spins it as...

Journalist Matt Taibbi spoke to Brian Kilmeade about Mark Zuckerberg coming out against government censorship of social media and revealing the pressure he faced from the Biden administration to censor content on Facebook and Instagram. "On the whole, it is a net positive," Taibbi said. "Zuckerberg coming out and saying all this confirms a lot of what I reported and a lot of the information that came out from Jim Jordan's committee investigation into the Facebook Files. Even if it is not 100% sincere, it confirms some things and suggests that maybe these tech companies are afraid to continue doing...

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said Tuesday that the federal government has been weaponized to spy on Americans' bank accounts and financial transactions. "We know in 2023 [that] 14,000 different individuals in the government [about] three million times in one year......14,000 individuals did over three million searches of this database of information on Americans banking habits," Jordan said on the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show. Last week the House Judiciary Committee issued a report that detailed how the federal government had unchecked access to private financial data of everyday Americans. "The FBI has manipulated the Suspicious Activity...

WASHINGTON — House Republicans are demanding more information from the FBI about its use of “software tools” to seek out election-related speech on social media after a bureau analyst mentioned their use during a recent deposition — before being barred from saying any more by FBI lawyers. House Judiciary Committee chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) told FBI Director Christopher Wray Tuesday to hand over the information as President-elect Donald Trump’s looming return to office creates uncertainty for Wray’s future employment. “In a transcribed interview… on October 23, 2024, an FBI Criminal Investigative Division Analyst previously assigned to the [Foreign Influence Task...

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.

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan is investigating how the United Nations is working with the Biden administration to “fast-track” thousands of migrants into the United States as the country reels from the ongoing border crisis.Jordan demanded the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM), which are each part of the UN, hand over documents showing how they have coordinated with the Biden administration to resettle thousands of foreign nationals into the U.S., according to two letters obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation on Thursday. Both the UNHCR and the IOM work with...

Hollywood actress Bette Midler has called on President Joe Biden to arrest House Republicans and execute Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan in what appears to be one of her most vile and unhinged rants yet. Midler was one of the main high-profile liberals responding to the Supreme Court ruling granting Donald Trump immunity for his official acts in office.

“The sad part, though, for all of them is it doesn’t matter how many times they attack me. I am not going to be broken,” Willis says Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis criticized the investigation Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio., launched into her office as "disgusting" and called him a clown.“He continues his attacks to try to interfere in a criminal investigation. All while his jurisdiction has one of the worst crime rates, has poverty issues, and not one time has he used his position to try to investigate people who are attacking me and others who are attacking others...

Kudos to FOX News reporter Bill Melugin for going where no FOX News reporter has dared to venture before. Melugin asked the most obvious question on overy Republican voter’s mind – why should we keep voting for these cowards and liars? In April, Speaker Mike Johnson and House Republicans voted to send another $95 billion in military aid to Ukraine, Taiwan, and Israel and NOTHNG for securing our own border with Mexico. This was the last straw for millions of Americans who thought they were voting for politicians who actually cared about America First and the global community second. On...

"When the Biden administration told the American people that the vacc*nated couldn't get the virus, was it MISINFORMATION or DISINFORMATION?" NO ANSWER. "When the Biden administration told the American people that the virus didn't come from a lab was that MISINFORMATION or DISINFORMATION?" NO ANSWER. "When the Biden administration said that *MASKS WORK* was that MISINFORMATION or DISINFORMATION?" NO ANSWER. These were the "EXPERTS" who silenced millions of Americans during the Cov*d pandemic. But it turns out the "EXPERTS" were the biggest peddlers of misinformation and disinformation . This was FRAUD on a massive scale and people MUST be held...

I’m not very good at imagining what goes on in the minds of crooks. But I can process what I see. If I was the Deep State and could compromise anybody I wanted I would wait until somebody had the trust of the people and then I would threaten them into betraying their supporters. And then I would threaten one of them to go out and rabble-rouse saying that the others had deliberately betrayed everybody so R’s are just as bad as D’s. There’s no difference. That would leave the R’s in tatters, torn and fighting each other rather than...

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis may be able to stay on the Georgia case against former President Donald Trump after a decision by Judge Scott McAfee on a disqualification motion against her. But in the meantime, she seriously compromised herself and the case, given all that was revealed during the disqualification hearing. Willis is also now facing multiple investigations/inquiries including from the state bar of Georgia, the Georgia Senate and the House Judiciary Committee looking into the misuse of federal funds by Willis' office. The House Judiciary Committee is looking into whistleblower allegations from a former Willis employee who...
