|    Jim Jordan hits back after FBI denies hi    |

      From: johnny@invalid.net              By Fox News Staff       Published September 30, 2022              Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, called out the FBI's purge of conservatives on       "The Faulkner Focus" on Friday and accused the Justice Department of       retaliating against whistleblowers who come forward with information.       The FBI hit back at Jordan's allegations, calling them "false and       misleading."              JIM JORDAN: Established policies and procedures, are you kidding me? In       the past several weeks, they've raided the home of a former president,       taking the phone of a sitting member of Congress, and we saw what they       did to the pastor and his family and seven children: 20 agents, guns       drawn, going to his house, when the local officials said there was no       crime whatsoever. So established policies, you've got to be kidding me.       So that's what's going on at the FBI. And now what's happening is the       people who are brave enough to take whistleblower status and come talk       to us, they're coming after them. And remember when it started. It       started a few weeks ago when Merrick Garland sent out a memorandum to       everyone in the Justice Department [on] here are the rules and       guidelines for when you talk to Congress. It was a memo to chill their       speech. And since that, we've learned of people's security clearances       being revoked and now suspensions for FBI whistleblowers who've come to       us. So if that's not retaliation, tell me what it is. Because it sure       looks that way. I'm sure they got some something they're going to say       that, oh, it's not. But that's what it appears to the American people       to be. That's certainly what it appears to us and our lawyers to be.              https://www.foxnews.com/media/jim-jordan-hits-back-fbi-denies-al       egations-conservative-purge-kidding              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
