Weeks after network's recall bid, Jordan's committee subpoenas same Virginia prosecutor plus a Colorado DA
🍺
“This is what it looks like when one lane isn't fast enough for them: they run a recall petition and a congressional subpoena on the same guy in the same month, then just add a county nobody was talking about last week. That's not oversight, that's a list with a letterhead, and the letterhead keeps getting longer. Watch where Boulder's money goes next — the DOJ already told every state that welfare funding rides on turning in the list, so the subpoena and the shutoff valve are the same hand.”
“The chairman's just doing oversight, that's all this is. Congress has a right to know whether local DAs are following federal law, that's basic — no, wait, Fairfax already has a recall running, so this isn't duplicative, it's diligence, two separate bodies independently arriving at — okay it's the same donor network's law firm probably wrote both letters, but that doesn't mean anything. Boulder's just — look, if you're not doing anything wrong, why do you need two separate federal and quasi-federal bodies investigating you at once? That's not a gotcha, that's just how oversight works now, apparently, for the counties they pick.”
Jim Jordan issued subpoenas to district attorneys in Fairfax County and Boulder County, accusing both of giving preferential treatment to criminal aliens.
