There’s a new House in town, and they’re wasting no time getting right down to business. Immediately after Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was sworn in, the 118th House Of Representatives got straight to work on forming a new select committee headed by Jim Jordan, who plans on investigating the abuse of power and the Weaponization of Government. Yes, the FBI should be very worried.
According to The Post Millennial, this investigative panel will demand emails and correspondence between the Biden administration and big tech companies and follows the massive revelations that came to light through the recent release of the Twitter Files.
Kevin McCarthy was asked to form the committee as part of the negotiations that brought him to power, Axios reports. Jordan was one of the 15 members of Congress who nominated McCarthy for Speaker last week, just as many in his party nominated and voted for him.
“The probe into communications between tech giants and President Biden’s aides will look for government pressure that could have resulted in censorship or harassment of conservatives — or squelching of debate on polarizing policies, including the CDC on COVID,” Axios reports.
If government personnel and agencies do not comply, subpoenas are likely to be issued, per a GOP source. The GOP is committed to digging into “the politicization of the FBI,” which not only includes the work done to discredit accurate reporting from the New York Post in the lead-up to the 2020 presidential election but the allegations of Russian election interference in the lead-up to the 2016 election.
The use of Biden’s Department of Justice to go after parents who spoke out angrily at school board meetings will be investigated as well, per The Post Millennial. Ohio’s Jordan was instrumental in the discovery that the letter requesting a DOJ investigation into these parents, issued by the National School Boards Association, was actually requested to be written by Merrick Garland’s DOJ in the first place. The head of the NSBA was then given a plum post in the administration.
The Post Millennial also reported that Biden’s Covid czar Dr. Anthony Fauci will also be a focus of this new GOP investigation. The Twitter Files revealed that social media companies were pressured to toe the Democratic Party line on Covid and Covid treatments.
