    Jane L. Campbell, president and CEO of the U.S. Capitol Historical Society, said: “The Speaker of the House does not oversee security of the U.S. Capitol, the Capitol Police Board does, and the Speaker does not oversee the Board. The Board consists of three voting members: the Senate Sergeant at Arms, the House Sergeant at Arms, and the Architect of the Capitol; together with one non-voting member, the Chief of the Capitol Police.”

    Hunter Biden is a private citizen who chose to follow Representative Jim Jordan's example of defying a Congressional subpoena.

    Whether the President was aware beforehand of Hunter Biden's insistence that his interrogation be out in the open where the public can witness it has no bearing in the matter.

    Those targeting the President are under increasing pressure as their failure to concoct any credible evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors persists.

    Although there are others in government saying this also... but.....
    A former Speaker who did the job before Pelosi said, yes Pelosi was DIRECTLY involved and responsible for security at the Capitol .... I believe he would know a whole lot more about the responsibilities than a 501(c)(3), non-partisan educational organization.

    Even if they are correct, that still doesn't excuse Jordan from not complying with a congressional subpoena...I guess the thread got sidetracked.

    Hunter was served a subpoena by a legit and lawful committee of Congress....

    Jordan declined setting before the very illegitimate committee the House Speaker who denied he be part of that committee..... The J6 committee was illegit by any definition... Pelosi created an illegitimate committee in an attempt to intimidate members of Congress, attack President Donald Trump and his supporters, and to distract Americans from the disastrous performance of herself... Pelosi herself should have been subpoenaed for her role in J6.

    Both were served subpoenas by duly-authorized Congressional committees, and both ignored them. Jordan did not offer to testify publicly.

    Speaker Pelosi did not incite goons to attack the Capitol, nor pleasure herself for hours watching them savage outnumbered police.

    The J6 committee was illegitimate and the Jordan subpoenas have constitutional issues.... It was only a hand picked crew by Pelosi instead of following their own rules of 13 members with 5 being Republicans.. ALL those Pelosi hand picked voted to have Trump impeached... let that sink in...

    Let Jordan speak for himself instead of you trying to put words in his mouth...

    The United States House Select Committee on the January 6 Attack on the United States Capitol was a duly-authorized bipartisan select committee of the U.S. House of Representatives.

    If was formed after Kevin McCarthy had objected to the creation of a bipartisan independent commission.

    Pelosi did reject two of McCarthy’s five proposed committee members, Reps. Jim Jordan and Jim Banks, on account of concerns about their “statements made and actions taken” – but she accepted the other three McCarthy picks, and she also gave McCarthy a chance to suggest another two members to replace Jordan and Banks. Instead, McCarthy decided to withdraw the three members Pelosi had accepted.
    Obviously, it would be inappropriate for witnesses who would be subpoenaed to be on the committee.

    Amidst all the media sound and fury signifying nothing, Trump lickspittles Jordan, Comer, et al. remain conspicuously impotent in concocting any substantive evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors by the President.
    The bipartisan January 6 Investigative Congressional Committee exposed a vast amount of substantive evidence and the damning sworn testimony of dozens of Republican witnesses.

    The protracted retaliatory fatwa has produced doodly-squat, and the dupes are getting angry.

    The J6 committee was illegitimate.

    What you mean to say is that the bipartisan Congressional committee exposed Trump stuff aplenty, much through the sworn testimony of dozens of Republicans who served during the Trump regime and had first-hand knowledge that thy shared.

    Was it stupid for McCarthy to oppose a commission with equal representation? Indeed!

    Was it stupid for him to withdraw his three Republicans and refuse to name replacements for the disqualified two? Obviously!

    I notice you are using a typical ploy you often use. Don't deny that it happened, don't deny it was wrong. Deny the process and shift the blame to those that brought it to light.....Jordan decided not to honor the subpoena because he was not on the committee investigating in part his actions. Once again he sets himself up as judge and jury. He did not honor a legal subpoena!

    @Natty Bumpo
    It is that simple… Pelosi’s J6 committee was illegitimate as she made up all new rules with only 9 members of a 13 member committee with every one of them already voted to impeachTrump.

    Feel free to provide links to the contempt of Congress charges against Jordan.

    Jordan was a member of the committee when Pelosi delegitimize it by kicking him off. There are rules and courtesy extended between members of committees. Jordan had told them he had NO role in Trumps speech or what occurred at the Capital but would answer their questions in writing and they were in negotiations to do that when out of the blue the Dems tried to bring obstruction charges but the committee disbanded.

    NOTHING about Jordan excuses or mitigates or gets The Big Guy and his son off the hook here. So stop with the canard.

    Did Pelosi remove Jordan yes or no? Was it set up as a partisan committee by Pelosi yes or no?

    Neither Congressman Jordan nor Citizen Biden has yet been charged with contempt for refusal to comply with a Congressional subpoena.

    Biden agreed to a public hearing. Jordan did not.

    As the Congressional Record confirms, The United States House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol was a bipartisan select committee of the U.S. House of Representatives.

    Some are pissy because of all the substantive evidence and sworn testimony of dozens of Republicans that the official transcript of the Committee shows.

    Neither you no Xtofascist Spanker Johnson do NOT get to CAPRICIOUSLY pick which committees are legitimate or NOT.

    Spanker Johnson formed an ILLEGITIMATE committee to go after President Biden.

    He was FORCED to take a House vote that was 100 percent PARTISAN.

    SENIOR Xtofascist controlled GOP Senators Grassly and Graham have STATED in PUBLIC that there is ZERO EVIDENCE of President Biden committing ANY impeachable offenses.

    Spanker Johnson should be THROWN OUT of Congress for the CRIME of FILING a FALSE Impeachment Allegation. If filing a FALSE police report is a CRIME then filing a FILE Impeachment allegation is the SAME CRIME.

    Spanker Johnson and the rest of the Khaos Kaw-Kuss have committed a CRIME in VIOLATION of the Oath to UPHOLD the Constitution and the Laws of the Land.

    There is ZERO EVIDENCE therefore this is the CRIME of FILING a FALSE REPORT against Joe Biden.

    Former Xtofascist controlled GOP House Leader McCastrated REFUSED to FILL those missing seats for NEFARIOUS PARTISAN purposes.

    HE is 100% RESPONSIBLE for those EMPTY seats.

    The J6 Committee was 100% LEGITIMATE because it was in FULL compliance of ALL of the House Rules and Regulations.

    SAD that you CANNOT make the same claim about the ILLEGITIMATE phishing gang of Khaos Kaw-Kuss KNUCKLE DRAGGERS pulling feces out of their lilly white butts and FLINGING it around.

    Gymboy Jordan actively PARTICIPATED in the J6 INSURRECTION together with FOUR other members of the Khaos Kaw-Kuss.

    That automatically DISQUALIFIED them from SERVING.

    McCastrated could have provided ALTERNATIVE non-insurrectionist members to sit on that committee.

    So what?

    Our previous president told anyone connected to him to not cooperate with any investigation.

    Yes or no answer, did Jordan refuse to honor a subpoena?

    Feel free to show ANY ruling that the committee was not legitimate.

    I should think if you were worried about people defying congressional subpoenas we should start with those who did it first
