Jim Jordan is leading the House investigation into corruption at the Biden Justice Department.
But what Jim Jordan just discovered is shocking.
And Jim Jordan made one bombshell announcement that left Merrick Garland pacing the floor.
Under the direction of Attorney General Merrick Garland, the Justice Department has been weaponized against conservatives.
The FBI is focused more on taking down Joe Biden’s political opponents than solving real crimes.
House Republicans created the Judiciary Committee’s Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government to investigate the Justice Department.
Led by Jim Jordan (R-OH), the subcommittee is shining a spotlight on the FBI’s abuses of power under Biden’s control.
During the first hearing, the Committee heard testimony from two former FBI agents who witnessed the political bias at the Bureau.
“In my time in Congress, I have never seen anything like this,” Jordan said when he opened the hearing. “It’s not Jim Jordan saying this, not Republicans, not conservatives, good FBI agents who are willing to come forward and give us the truth.”
He then listed a few examples of how the FBI had been weaponized by Merrick Garland.
Jordan brought up how the FBI labeled parents who protested at school board meetings as “domestic terrorists” and also cited how the Bureau collected private information from Facebook users without their consent or a warrant.
He said that “dozens and dozens” of FBI whistleblowers had come forward and many of them would testify before the subcommittee.
The FBI is not the only agency under the spotlight.
Jordan is also looking into corruption at the IRS, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Justice Department.
“Americans have lost faith in the Federal Bureau of Investigation, an institution they once regarded as the world’s greatest law enforcement agency,” former FBI agent Thomas Baker said.
Baker said the FBI’s culture took a turn for the worse under former Director Robert Mueller, who turned the Bureau into an intelligence agency.
Former FBI Agent Nicole Parker testified that during her 12 years with the bureau, its values “shifted dramatically.”
“The FBI became politically weaponized starting from the top in Washington and trickling down to the field offices,” Parker said.
With Republicans in control of the House, Jim Jordan is making sure the American people find out how corrupt the FBI has become under Garland.
