Their discussion hit on the midterm elections as well, but here's what Jordan had to say about the weaponization of the FBI and, most importantly, the timing of so many of the agency's dubious moves:
DEANGELIS: Joining me now is the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Congressman Jim Jordan. Thank you so much, Congressman, for being here. And I want to talk about this FBI investigation — March Toll — because the timing is not coincidental, and we are just learning about some of these details. So, President Trump is trying to fix things within the FBI because they're going after him on unsubstantiated reports. And so, he fires James Comey. Then the next day, they go after Jeff Sessions because the Democrats couldn't leave the breakdown of the institution right where it was. They had to try to further it even more.
JORDAN: Yeah. And remember, even before that, when this all got started, was the Clinton campaign hiring the law firm Perkins Coie, who hired the public relations firm Fusion GPS, who hired the foreigner, Christopher Steele, who wrote the bogus document called the dossier that Comey takes — he knows it's bogus — he takes it to the secret court, the FISA court, to get a warrant to go spy on President Trump's campaign. That happened.
And then when people start digging into that and figuring something out, then it's on to this next thing. He fires Comey, and they go after Jeff Sessions. And then, as you point out they they launched this operation a few years later, when we are start — when a number of us — are starting to dig into Joe Biden, all the crazy things that went on there with Ukraine and Barisma and his son, Hunter Biden, and they run an operation against members of Congress and other people affiliated with the, or associated with, the Trump campaign and the Trump administration. That's how ridiculous it was — running ops against the government — the FBI was doing this.
DEANGELIS: Yeah. And on the Biden side, of course, it was Russian disinformation. Nobody wanted to pursue that narrative or look into any of the details, but when it came to President Trump, you needed a special counsel investigation where we did get more detail, which was helpful. But when you learn little pieces of the timeline like this, you see just how bad it was.
JORDAN: Yeah. Remember, so the Clinton campaign does that. Comey uses that ridiculous document to go spy on President Trump's campaign. Four years later, they run an operation against members of Congress and members of President Trump's administration to try to help Biden win. So, it was always designed to hurt President Trump and help his opponent win. It was designed to help Clinton win in 16, Biden win in 24. And then, frankly, you could say — or in 20 — and then in 24 you could say, well, Jack Smith was designed to help Biden or Kamala Harris win, and President Trump lose in 24. So, they ran operations each and every time President Trump was running for office.

DeAngelis noted the criticism levied at Congress for not doing enough to address this egregious weaponization.
DEANGELIS: Even as you uncover all of this detail, there are some advisers like White House adviser Peter Navarro, who says you haven't done enough to investigate some of this weaponization. What is your rebuttal to that?
JORDAN: We've done everything we can. We've referred people for prosecution. We referred John Brennan because we know he lied to us. We referred him eight months ago to the Justice Department.
We just recently referred Jack Smith because he lied to us. He said he only got the records, the phone records of members of Congress. He said he did not get contents of members' communications. And then we find out, oh, he went to the National Archives and got text messages between members of Trump, President Trump's administration, and members of Congress, and he had that information and didn't tell us that when we deposed him. So, he lied to us. We referred him.
And we've also referred Thomas Windham, one of his deputies, for prosecution as well because he tried to obstruct our investigation into this whole operation that they're running against President Trump as the special counsel.
As Jordan noted, several criminal referrals have been made to the Justice Department in response to the FBI's weaponization. That begs the question: When will the prosecutions follow? Or, more importantly: Will they at all?
Editor's Note: The Trump administration is exposing Barack Obama and his administration's Russian Collusion Hoax.
