Jim Jordan Lies -- here's the list.
https://archive.ph/4dBhmDuring the 2019 impeachment probe into Trump blackmailing Ukrainian President Zelenskyy to fabricate dirt on then-candidate Joe Biden, Jordan helped criminally storm a secure room in the Capitol where evidence against Trump was held, delaying the proceedings by hours.
The stunt prompted cybersecurity concerns because Jordan and Gaetz brought people without security clearances carrying cellphones with cameras into the top-secret secured SCIF, prompting Congressman Eric Swalwell to note:
They not only brought in their unauthorized bodies, they may have brought in the Russians and the Chinese with electronics into a secure space, which will require that the space at some point in time be sanitized.
As a reward for Jordans loyal service to Trumps MAGA/Putin cause, in his final weeks as president the Orange Rapist awarded him the rare Presidential Medal of Freedom, an honor established by President Kennedy for people who have given outstanding service to America in the fields of national security and world peace...
An Ohio newspaper warns that putting Jordan in the Speakers position, two heartbeats away from the presidency, will create an Axis of Evil between Trump, Jordan, and the other Putin-aligned MAGA Republicans in that body.
The Cleveland Plain Dealers former Editorial Director wrote:
Placing second in the line of presidential succession, a man willing to besmirch everything America stands for in service of Trump by rights should prove too risky for many of the Houses 221 Republican members.
Truer words were never spoken. Jim Jordan represents a real and existential threat to democracy in our country, the rights of women and minorities, and peace in the world.

It's not just the legislative coup, it's the Koch network funders' criminal use of freedom (money is speech) that ("If you don't have the courts, you got nothing" ) is on the way to capturing 1.5 branches of the US government.
