TODD STARNES: [00:42:56] We’ll go to the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker Line right now. Our good friend, great American Patriot Congressman Jim Jordan with us and Congressmen first- Welcome to the show and I’d love to get your reaction to what The Washington Post and some of these other news organizations are doing doxing the names of these law abiding Americans. [00:43:12][16.2]

JIM JORDAN: [00:43:14] Good to be with you. It just shows you how radical the Left has come. I mean, this is a direct attack on what the government’s doing there. And signs of that, those kind of things here in our country. Direct attack on the First Amendment. You know, I’ve said now for over the last year, every single right we enjoy under the First Amendment has been assaulted. You’re right to practice your faith, your right to assemble, your right to petition freedom of the press and obviously freedom of speech. So…this is the most dangerous thing is happening under the Biden administration. We can recover from all the other stupid, terrible things they’re doing. But if they if they undermine and get rid of the First Amendment and the constitutional protections we have, that’s when we’re talking about the fundamentals. And that is what is most alarming. [00:43:57][43.3]

Do you agree with Rep. Jim Jordan?

STARNES: [00:43:58] You know, for me, and I don’t mean to disparage the White House press corps. I just think there are so many young reporters and experienced reporters and they don’t know how to push back. Or maybe they don’t want to push back. Maybe they really are walking lock stop and barrel with the the administration. But there’s nobody outside of Newsmax, Fox News holding these people accountable up there. [00:44:22][23.7]

JORDAN: [00:44:23] No, you’re exactly right. And the Democrat members of Congress, most of them cheer this stuff on. They cheer on the authoritarian attacks on the First Amendment. They they they they talk about, Oh, members of Congress did this. They remember Zoe Lofgren put together a list of every tweet those of us who objected to counting the electors on January 6, 2021. He put a dossier on every member of Congress, everything they tweeted out, and they weren’t more of this censorship, this attack on people’s free speech rights. So it’s scary. But we have to push-the here’s the good. The good news is that it started with a few moms in Loudoun County. Then it was a few more moms. Pretty soon, some dads got involved. Next thing you know Glenn Youngkin is governor of a blue state, and now we’re now it’s the way up in Canada where truckers. It’s the same thing. It’s this this defense of freedom, this defense of liberty, this defense of of of the First Amendment. And that’s the encouraging news. [00:45:26][63.6]

STARNES: [00:45:27] And I look at Ilhan Omar. I never thought I’d be agreeing with her on anything, but even she sees how nutso this thing. So- [00:45:35][7.9]

JORDAN: [00:45:35] Yeah yeah, I used to be the left. The left seems to be with us on this. They used to champion the ACLU, and they used to champion true free speech. Not anymore. And so it’s good when you when someone like Congresswoman Omar speaks up in favor of free, free speech because we need everyone to be speaking out in favor of this . [00:45:55][19.8]

STARNES: [00:45:56] Congressman – couple of other big stories I want to get to. One of them is whether or not we’re going to be in a shooting war with the Russians. And maybe I’m just maybe I’m off base here, am I observation? But it seems like Biden is the one who’s been beating, you know, sounding the war drums here. [00:46:12][15.6]

JORDAN: [00:46:13] Well, I certainly hope we’re not going to be in that kind of situation. The problem with this whole thing is when you project weakness from the getgo like the Biden administration has, bad things happen. When weakness is seen from the Oval Office of the presidency. You know, bad guys around the world do bad things, and that’s exactly what we’re witnessing now. So just, you know, I saw a great interview from from former Secretary of State Pompeo, and he said people ask him, Would this happened under the Trump if Trump were president? And his answer, I thought, was was right on target, he says. I don’t know, but I know this. It didn’t happen when Donald Trump was president. And that speaks volumes because President Trump projected strength, so did Secretary of State Pompeo. And unfortunately, we’re not seeing that from President Biden and Secretary of State Blinken. And I think that’s the problem. And so when you start in the wrong position, bad guys around the world are going to do bad things. That’s exactly the situation we find ourselves in. [00:47:10][56.2]

STARNES: [00:47:10] Congressman, in a nutshell, what what did you read in that filing, the court filing from Special Counsel John Durham? [00:47:19][8.5]

JORDAN: [00:47:20] They were trying to frame the president of the United States, because remember what Durham said, he said they were they were looking to draw inferences and create a narrative, create a narrative. So we used to call that framing somebody. Frame the President of the United States, and I think the big question to ask is Todd, to this tech executive, one, if he was doing legitimate activities, the New York Times said he was, he was to monitor this stuff and he would if he saw things that concerned him, he was supposed to bring that to people’s attention. Well, if that’s the case, if it was all legitimate, you were doing your job. Why did you? Why didn’t you just take it directly to the FBI? Why did you go to the Clinton lawyer, Mr. Sussmann? And why does Marc Elias in on this as well? I mean, that, to me, is the key. If it’s all legit, take it to the FBI. But but you did it. You took it to the Clinton’s campaign lawyer, the guy working for Perkins Couey, and then he took it to the FBI after he had created it, done the inferences, created the narrative. All those things. So that to me, is the most telling thing about all this. [00:48:17][56.9]

STARNES: [00:48:18] And then for the media just to completely ignore this story, this is mind-blowing. I mean, it’s zero coverage from the networks on this. [00:48:26][8.2]

JORDAN: [00:48:28] Yeah, but these are the same networks who, you know, wall to wall coverage on the fake story. [00:48:32][3.9]

STARNES: [00:48:32] Sure. [00:48:32][0.0]

JORDAN: [00:48:32] Now getting the truth zero coverage. So I mean, God bless folks like you who are who are in the business reporting the truth in the business of getting the American people the facts. Unfortunately, so many folks in the mainstream press aren’t. And they, you know, I think it’s interesting when President Trump said in 2017, they’re spying on me. The mainstream press? No, no, no. You can’t be. Democrats felt that it was, you know, that wasn’t true 2019, when Bill Barr said spying took place. And there’s a basis for my concern about that spying. Remember the we actually got in a committee hearing from Democrat members of the Senate. They went after him and and the press went after him. And now here we are, 2022, based on what Durham filed last week. We know for sure what you and I knew all along, but we now know for sure that it took place and what they were up. [00:49:21][48.1]

STARNES: [00:49:21] And just to illustrate again how sleazy the sleaze bags are in the in the mainstream media. President Trump put out a statement and the point he was making is, Hey, these are crimes that that carry severe penalties. And you were asked about that statement. And you said you agreed with it and the headlines come out. Jim Jordan supports the execution of campaign staffers of Hillary Clinton. [00:49:44][23.3]

JORDAN: [00:49:46] It’s so stupid. Of course we don’t. I’m just agreeing with the severity of what they did, how wrong what they did. And, you know, if this thing were reversed, you know, if it was the Trump campaign spying on Secretary Clinton or on on on Joe Biden, that, oh my goodness, they would been going after them. So it. But you know, people are used to how the left reacts and the ridiculous positions that they take. [00:50:14][27.7]

STARNES: [00:50:15] You know-I think I think Hillary Clinton is really concerned about all of this because typically she doesn’t respond to any of these these stories. But she actually came out and she’s saying that President Trump and Fox News are desperately spinning up a fake scandal to distract from his real ones. [00:50:33][18.0]

JORDAN: [00:50:35] Yeah, I think she’s thinking about running. And so she understands like, whoa, this is this going right to the top lawyers on her campaign, Marc Elias and Sussmann. So I think I think, you know, she wants to run again. I think that’s pretty obvious. So yes, it’s concerning. She’s going to go back to the same old thing attacking the people who are actually presenting the truth. [00:50:57][22.9]

STARNES: [00:50:58] So you think we could have another Clinton versus Trump match up? Possibly. [00:51:02][3.2]

JORDAN: [00:51:02] I think it’s I think I mean, it would do we really think Joe Biden is going to run? I mean, even what I saw some polls, the majority of Democrats have concerns about him running. So and obviously it’s been the worst year in the history of presidents. I mean, I can’t I don’t know if anyone can point to one thing that he’s done well. So I think it’s going to be someone else. And, you know, she is obviously at the top of that list. [00:51:27][24.8]

STARNES: [00:51:28] All right. We’re going to have to leave it there. Congressman, good stuff. I hope. And our final point here, I hope that when you guys take over the House of Representatives, we’re going to be able to get to the bottom of all of this once and for all. [00:51:42][14.3]

JORDAN: [00:51:43] That’s the goal. Get to the truth, though, that that’s what we’re supposed to do as part of our constitutional duty. [00:51:48][4.2]

STARNES: [00:51:48] All right, congressman, we’re going to leave it there. Thank you again. And God bless. [00:51:51][3.3]

JORDAN: [00:51:53] Take care. You, too. [00:51:53][0.5]
