Rachel reminded us that
Jordan was one of the 147 Republican representatives and senators who took part in the last-ditch effort to derail Bidens legitimate victory by raising objections to the Electoral College results and echoing Trumps baseless claims of a rigged election.
And then the Slobfather awarded hum the Presidential Medal of Freedom. How the fuck does the Minority leader appoint this tool to a Select Committee investigating the coup that failed?

President Donald Trump announced Monday that he was awarding the presidential medal of freedom to Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan, a pugnacious Republican ally in Congress who continues to back the president even after the deadly rampage last week by a pro-Trump mob through the Capitol.
Jordan received the nations highest civilian award from a lame-duck and increasingly isolated president who has just nine days left in office and who faces the humiliation of a possible second impeachment before President-elect Joe Biden takes office.
A sharp-elbowed Trump defender, Jordan helped lead the GOP attack on special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian election interference. His harsh interrogations of witnesses plus his refusal to wear a jacket while doing so made him both a national figure and lightning rod for critics.
In announcing the award, the White House praised Jordan for, among other things, his work to "unmask the Russia hoax and take on Deep State corruption" and for his efforts to "confront the impeachment witch hunt."

Speaker Pelosi was correct - he has no place on this Select Committee
