Jim Jordan signals prolonged probes into Biden family and debunked Jan. 6 conspiracies



House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH) signaled Tuesday that he may not be done just yet with investigations revolving around former President Joe Biden and his family members – pardons or not – in a preview of a retribution tour to come.

Nor is he satisfied with the debunked, yet still popular right-wing conspiracy theory revolving around the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and the 26 FBI informants, known as confidential human sources, who he continued to claim were involved in orchestrating the attack – and not a mob of MAGA supporters.

The remarks came Tuesday night during a sit-down interview with GOP House leadership inside the U.S. Capitol with Fox News’ Sean Hannity.

“Here’s the big question: is this over?” Hannity asked the Michigan congressman. “Because my understanding is once you get a pardon, you no longer have a Fifth Amendment right to remain silent. If they go before your committees – every one of these pardoned family members – don’t they have to tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help them God?”

Jordan told Hannity that there are “a number of things” that his committee wants to review, and added: “Everything’s on the table.”

“I really think one of the keys is the report we got just right before – just a few weeks ago – was with the 26 confidential human sources.”

The two continued to recount false conspiracy theories before their audiences of GOP lawmakers – and Fox viewers – related to the Jan. 6 attack, including Hannity saying that President Donald Trump “authorized use” of the National Guard “days before” the riot, while “Pelosi did nothing.”

“Not to mention the number of false things that committee put out on me, on you, on so many people,” Jordan told Hannity about the Jan. 6 select committee. “So yeah, I think there’s some unanswered questions we have to get to there, so we will look at that.”

Before he concluded the interview, the Fox News host called Jordan and House Oversight Committee chair James Comer (R-KY), who was being interviewed next to him, “rock stars” and offered his own piece of advice.

“I would let the American people know the truth, pardon or not, and let’s see if they tell the truth when they have, to under oath,” Hannity said.

A report from the Department of Justice's Office of Inspector General found "no evidence" to support the claims that undercover FBI agents provoked the Capitol riot.
