Jim Jordan Cedes His Oversight Responsibility Of Musk To The Press … from Crooks & Liars Heather

Rep. Jim Jordan is all set to waste more of our tax dollars on another hearing on the so-called “Twitter files,” but don’t expect him to try to rein in Musk any time soon, or ever.

Jordan made an appearance on CNN’s Inside Politics this Sunday, and was asked by host Manu Raju about the courts striking down some of Trump’s illegal power grabs, and whether he should take his oversight responsibility seriously.

In response, Jordan basically claimed that King Trump ought to be allowed to do anything he wants before making it perfectly clear that he and his fellow Republicans in the House are not going to be any type of “guardrail” to Trump and Musk’s illegal overreach.

RAJU: There’s a pattern where judges are saying you’re going too far on these issues.

JORDAN: As I said before, we’re going to have this, we’re going to argue these cases in court. In fact, we filed an amicus brief in the birthright citizenship case, members of Congress, we led an amicus brief on on that issue, so some of the stuff’s going to get fired, ironed out in court.
