Jim Jordan Faces Uncomfortable Impeachment Question On Newsmax
HuffPost
"It kind of seems like you’re chasing your tail at this point," Newsmax host Rob Finnerty told the Ohio Republican.
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) was forced to confront an awkward truth on Newsmax about the impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden, as the proceedings continue to lose support from right-wing media figures.
“Is impeachment the next step? Are you going to hold a vote on the House floor?” host Rob Finnerty asked the House Republican Wednesday morning.
“Unless you get Democratic votes, this is going to be real tough,” he added. “So, it kind of seems like you’re chasing your tail at this point because this is not going to go anywhere.”
Jordan, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and a leader of the inquiry, said it was a “fair question,” but suggested Republicans plan to continue investigating and have no timeline to wrap it up.
“You know, we’ve got a small majority. Everybody understands that. Not just on this issue but on a host of issues. Our job, under the Constitution, is to do oversight of the executive branch. We’re doing that. We’re going to continue to do that,” he said.
