Welcome to another episode of the Politico Buzz Show, I am your host Rene Hinojosa. Today we are going to talk about US Representative Jim Jordan. Over the course of the past year, Jordan, the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, has engaged in a systematic effort to cast doubt on the integrity of the 2020 U.S. presidential election. He was also behind the efforts to create an image in the minds of Trump supporters of Jan. 6 as the “ultimate date of significance” in his own words. He was also one of a number of individuals who spearheaded the effort to oppose certification of the election in Congress and thus far has continued to promote the “Big Lie” even after the events on Jan. 6 and subsequent FBI and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) warnings that this conspiracy is propelling domestic violent extremists.
