Jim Jordan, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, believes there has been a significant shift in allegations against President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden.

Jordan suggested “something is up” with the investigation due to a renewed interest in the story by many of the same media outlets that initially dismissed reports of corruption evidence obtained from materials and emails found on a laptop he reportedly abandoned at a computer repair shop in Delaware in 2019.

“Well, what happened to that is you had 51 intelligence officers sign a letter saying that this Hunter Biden story was Russian misinformation when it wasn’t, and that changed — I think anyone can make a credible argument that that altered the outcome of the election and we no longer have Donald Trump in the White House because he was doing that, he was pushing back on China for the first time. And now, we have Joe Biden there and it’s exactly the opposite direction,” Jordan said.

“So that’s what happened. That’s why this is all connected because the influence of big media, big tech, and big government in impacting our election — I think we said this last week, Sean. My colleagues had this in the committee a few weeks ago, Matt Gaetz. He said, when will the FBI stay out of elections and let us, the people, decide? In 2016, they went after Trump’s campaign, 2018, it was a Mueller investigation, 2020, they suppressed the Hunter Biden story, 2022, 91 days before the midterm election, they raid his home, and now, just two weeks ago, three days after he announces for the 2024 race, they name a special counsel and it’s not just anybody, it’s Jack Smith and the record that he has of weaponizing the government to go after the people,” Jordan continued.

“It sure looks like Joe Biden was involved,” Jordan added. “So, my, how this story has changed. And now, we find out these text messages and emails that link the entire family, not just Hunter and Joe and — but also uncle, the — Joe’s brother, James Biden, is involved in this as well.”

The House Judiciary Committee is expanding its investigation into the actions of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office in regards to the unprecedented indictment of former President Donald Trump.

Chairman Jim Jordan requested an interview transcript in a letter to Manhattan District Attorney’s Office senior counsel Matthew Colangelo.

The New York Times reported in December that Colangelo was hired four months ago to “jump start” investigations into Trump, after pursuing the former president for years at the Department of Justice and the New York attorney general’s office.

“Given your history of working for law-enforcement entities that are pursuing President Trump and the public reporting surrounding your decision to work for the New York County District Attorney’s Office, we request your cooperation with our oversight in your personal capacity,” Jordan wrote.

On Tuesday, during an unprecedented arraignment, Trump pleaded not guilty to a 34-count felony indictment carrying a maximum prison sentence of 136 years. The charges relate to payments of hush money made to pornographic film actress Stormy Daniels in 2016, a case that prosecutors had previously declined to pursue.

Despite the charges, a group of twelve liberal law professors and Trump critics have deemed the prosecution a dead end, citing the case’s lack of strength, as reported by the outlet.

Jordan reminded Colangelo in his letter of Congress’s authority to investigate his office after receiving significant resistance from Bragg’s office regarding oversight requests.

“The Supreme Court has acknowledged that Congress has a ‘broad and indispensable’ oversight power, which ‘includes inquiries into the administration of existing laws, studies of proposed laws, and surveys of our social, economic, and political system to enable Congress to remedy them,'” the letter explained.

“Rule X of the Rules of the House of Representatives authorizes the Committee on the Judiciary to conduct oversight of criminal justice matters to inform potential legislation. Congress has a specific and manifestly important interest in preventing politically motivated prosecutions of current and former Presidents,” it added.

The back-and-forth has prompted the committee to contemplate issuing official subpoenas to Bragg’s office, according to a report from Fox News.
