Buzzfeed picked up a list compiled by Emptywheel that shows at least 12 of those Congressidjits who stormed into the SCIF this morning already had the right to be there:
- Ken Buck√*
- Paul Gosar√*
- Mark Green*
- Jody Hice√*
- Jim Jordan√*
- Fred Keller*
- Carol Miller*
- Ralph Norman*
- Mark Meadows√*
- Scott Perry√*
- Ron Wright*
- Lee Zeldin√*
(Those with checkmarks were in the House in 2017 and voted that staging a protest on the House floor was against the rules.)
Jim Jordan (or Gym Jordan as he’s known around here) was even in the room yesterday:
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), the president's lead defender in the room, was tight-lipped as he emerged from the closed-door deposition for a lunch break. He praised what he described as GOP lawyers’ effective questioning of Taylor but declined to say whether it yielded exculpatory information. www.politico.com/…
I wonder if after they cleared out all the ones who weren’t on the appropriate committees, Jordan quietly stayed behind; maybe he’ll claim he was pretending to be a Democrat?
