Congress has no oversight of state prosecutors. Jordan is using his position of power and trust to pervert the course of justice. This is blatant obstruction of justice.
Nobody has to honor a subpoena from the House Republicans because Jim ignores subpoenas and has shown there are zero consequences for doing so
Perhaps she should indict him for obstruction so we can have a good old standoff?
Lovely idea! Fani are you listening?
I really hope someone like her doesn't spend time on social media
I can't imagine she has the time for that.
Everybody poops
You're a naughty child and that's concentrated evil coming out the back of you.
Ah, I see you have smelt that which I have dealt.
Do you ever suck the poop back in two or three times before you finally let it go?
Man who defied a congressional subpoena sends congressional subpoena in a small government bid to illegally impose oversight of a court he does not have jurisdiction over to interfere with the upcoming election by attempting to deprive the voters of the knowledge of the criminality of one of the candidates.
House subpoenas can be ignored. They proved that a while back.
They're also negotiable.
She should tell them that she's happy to show up and answer some questions in exchange for sworn testimony in her case.
I would be curious to see the breakdown of GOP reps who would immediately agree, who would immediately reject the proposal, and who would be fine with agreeing to get what they want then turning around and either refusing to cooperate or simply blatantly commit perjury in an attempt to shield their orange overlord.
Just like in a video game: When you keep meeting increasingly stronger enemies, it means you're going the right direction.
And when the level boss starts puffing up and keeps getting redder and redder, it means you're winning.
And if anyone knows what not complying with a House investigation is, it's Gym Jordan!
Why do people keep spelling his name like it's short for gymnasium?
Because he's a former coach who used his position to facilitate CSA, resulting in the victims seeing no justice. It's a reminder to anyone reading that he's a piece of shit who uses his position of power to cover for criminals and abusers, as he is still doing.
ETA: when he cries foul over judicial impropriety or "protecting the children," he's the very person he's talking about.
Lol. Get ready for chest pumping, sound byting, and personal attacks - basically anything that will discredit Fani Willis. As if her personal affair is an absolution for republican election treason.
Oh and Gym should not be in any business issuing subpoenas since he himself has dodged one from the same committee he now chairs. Prostitutes should not give lectures about the virtues of virginity.
While I may agree with your sentiment, the closing analogy is a bit off. Prostitutes, being sex workers, would have at the very least a working familiarity with both sides of the virginity argument, whereas nuns would have no grounds to argue either side — no matter how rusted shut they are for Jesus.
Hahaha, the subpoena is literally meaningless thanks to the GOP, good luck with that shit
Noooooo! Rules for thee, but not for me :(
That guy looks like he has some rape skellingtons in his closet
I mean. They’re right out in the open. In the gym.
Fani Willis found some great ways to bring that up the last time they tried to threaten her. She found ways to meander her way over to casually mentioning "long-neglected sexual assault kits" and "deciding to allow serial rapists to go unprosecuted" in the course of a purely factual defense of what she'd been doing as pertains to the Trump prosecution.
That letter is a fantastic rebuttal and dressing-down, thank you for the link. Fani Willis is a true badass.
Great letter, it's a tad bit unfortunate that Fani used big words and facts for poor old Gym Jordan's tiny brain.
You talking about Gym Jordan, the kid rapist, who even today leverages his political status to cover his own child sexual abuse crimes? That Jim (aka Gym) Jordan, the pedophile and shit gargling hypocrite? I'm not sure what other current politician named Jim Jordan and referred to as Gym Jordan you could mean, except for this vile prowler of children's gymnasiums for his sexual predations...
Charge him, fanny
This is the best summary I could come up with:
WASHINGTON — House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan has subpoenaed District Attorney Fani Willis of Fulton County, Georgia, demanding documents from her office following allegations that Willis fired a whistleblower who tried to stop a top campaign aide from misusing federal funds.
The subpoena, obtained by NBC News, is part of a broader probe by Jordan, R-Ohio, and House Republicans into whether Willis used federal funds in conducting her more-than-two-year investigation into former President Donald Trump, who was indicted in Fulton County last year on charges that he attempted to overturn Georgia’s 2020 presidential election results.
In a letter Friday, Jordan says Willis has failed to comply with two earlier requests for documents related to her office’s use of federal grant money.
Willis' office has condemned Jordan's requests, writing last year in a letter to him that there is “no justification in the Constitution for Congress to interfere with a state criminal matter.”
Jordan's push for documents follows allegations that the district attorney's office retaliated against an employee who tried to stop what she said was misuse of Justice Department grant funding by a top Willis campaign aide.
Two months later, the employee was “abruptly terminated” and “escorted out of her office by seven armed investigators,” Jordan's letter says, quoting the report.
The original article contains 450 words, the summary contains 212 words. Saved 53%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
A Grand Jury indicted Trump.
They already tried this once, she told them to pound sand.
I expect to see Obstruction of Justice indictments.
I expect to see the same, but filed by her against Gym Jordan.
They know she doesn’t have a dick, right?
Actually, MTG wants to hold up an image of Fani's huge hog.
I still contend that MTG is just Dog the Bounty Hunter in drag.
