Republican Rep. Jim Jordan on Monday declined to say definitively if he has closed the door on cooperating with the House select committee investigating the January 6, 2021, insurrection.
A top congressional ally of former President Donald Trump, Jordan had penned a defiant letter to committee Chair Bennie Thompson on Sunday indicating that he does not plan on cooperating with the panel. The Ohio Republican wrote that he has "no relevant information that would assist the Select Committee in advancing any legitimate legislative purpose."
When pressed Monday by CNN on Capitol Hill about his willingness to cooperate, Jordan declined to say explicitly that he would not cooperate with the committee. "The letter speaks for itself. You read the letter. We put the reasons in there, we put the statements in there that we did because we felt that were important to say," Jordan said.

Two of the most senior figures in the US government — Secretary of State Marco Rubio and the White House chief of staff — have been impersonated in recent weeks using artificial intelligence — a tactic that harnesses a rapidly developing technology that cybersecurity experts say is becoming the “new normal” in terms of cheap and easy scams targeting senior US officials.
