While the jackboot on our neck doesn’t seem to be getting any lighter, at least someone says what’s going on out loud. {Direct Rumble Link}
House GOP representative Jim Jordan delivered a speech on the floor today that essentially encapsulates most of the current issues that have become the collective weight from the jackboot. Insofar as congressional speeches have value, this summary from Jordan is quite succinct. WATCH:
And it was Saint Anthony who said, “A time is coming [it’s here now] when men will go mad, and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him (or her), saying ‘You are mad; you are not like us.‘”
That time has come.
Perhaps additive are the words of Marcus Aurelius —
“The object of life is not be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane.”
Nonetheless, it is necessary to fight the current, and seek to turn it and return it to good virtue and purpose. The children and their future are too important to abandon the field.
“Whenever you find that you are on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.” – Mark Twain
“I know of only one freedom, freedom of the mind.”
Antoine de St Exupery
(The reason why the insidious and sinister indoctrination of children as young as 2. Enslave the young mind to the point where the concept of freedom no longer exists. William James described freedom as the only state where the idea of it and the reality of it are the same. )
Here in Ohio, we have some pretty crappy politicians. DeWine, Portman , Brown, Gonzales, to name just a few. But this Man, Jim Jordan is one we are Very Proud of! And Thank GOD for him!
Tech is his second highest donors
He’s comprised
compromised but you bring up a very important question. upvote. the social media are as much a part of the problem as anyone outside the likud mossad and the cia/fbi.
Some Uniparty members are not demonstrably visible card-carriers, yet are aware (via political instinct) of the invisible electric fence beyond which they dare not tread.
Jordan offers us passionate, rousing speeches and at times devastating lines of questioning.
His role is that of a ‘Quigley Outlier’ which functions like a rhetorical steam release valve. In some ways this is the most cynical role of all. Because he knows, we know and they know not a damn thing will ever come of it.
I believe in the eclipsing power of the Uniparty. It blunts, bends and expropriates all legislative energies.
A properly Quiglefied populace cheers, bemoans then cheers, bemoans again. Rinse repeat.
Nothing will come of anything unless it’s said out loud which to many members of Congress fail to do. His votes and his voice are in sync so what’s the problem?
Not locked up…Worse. deprived of life, as they have deprived others. Babies, J6 prisoners, vax recipients (dead, crippled, or unemployed).
Reaping what they have sewn.
Excellent post.
At this point it should be pretty obvious. Read your Bible come to a knowledge of the truth. Repent the best you can, ask for forgiveness and pray to the Creator through Christ Jesus. Pray that the eyes of your understanding would be open. Do not look to the world for answers. For at this point it’s pretty safe to say the whole world is in darkness..
“Who is he that overcometh the world but he that believeth that Jesus is the son of God.”
Maranatha
And after that is accomplished, by the grace of God, then take up the mantle of righteousness and get to action to defeat this corrupt evil steaming pile of the traitors to this nation.
One does not stop with just aligning personally with God. One must also take action.
I believe this to be true.
There is little doubt the god-less corruptors have zero hesitation destroying the very foundation of this nation for personal gain.
There has never been a more serious moment for Christian warriors to get into the fight.
On the other hand, since we do not allow taxpayer funded campaigns, politicians are forced to spend a considerable amount of time fundraising. It’s not their fault. And yet, we complain about self funded politicians who can buy their seats and whine and complain of those who need to raise money, that their second highest donor is Tech and then arrogantly claim that he is compromised.
Then you get in and play the game by the rules and see if you can do better. Jordan is not perfect, but I’m sure he is much more effective than you would ever be.
Remember when Obama was receiving all those foreign donations?
They’re still all coming in.
Can we blame the Citizens United SC ruling?
https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/citizens-united-explained
When you say Jordan is not perfect, you’re already committing the fallacy that the exemplary (or non-exemplary) attributes of an office-holder can somehow overdetermine the Uniparty construct. The Uniparty dines on this perennial hope that reform is possible from within its prevailing construct.
Sirloin steak can never come out the back-end of a hamburger machine.
It’s a matter of physics (or machine specs), not the moral compass of the aspirant who ventures into the machine. The Uniparty is a hamburger machine.
To imagine otherwise fundamentally misreads the specs of the machine. Nonetheless the system welcomes the optics of the occasional sirloin wannabe.
Maybe you’re a Jordan fan. He seems like a nice and earnest enough guy. So what.
What’s Jordan effective at?
The existing system cannot be reformed from within. It’s irredeemably corrupt.
You sir are a fairly pompous individual who is quite full of himself.
Not tax payer funded so ALL politicians have donors from one or another entities.
and just so you know…if you put sirloin steak through a grinder it is in fact still
sirloin steak…it has just changed shape.
Well put.
It’s really not an ad hominem attack on Jim Jordan. Though you might have launched one on me. Believe me, I share your exasperation. The system subdues all comers.
Unless you’re a self-financing billionaire with pre-existing brand & name recognition (like Trump) you must submit to the Culture of Beholdenness. No exceptions.
Maybe the best cuts of sirloin steak would never think to venture the hamburger machine in the first place. So the machine cagily screens for quality at the get-go. We often say no decent person would put his family through such an ordeal as seeking public office.
Cheers.
His statements are typical of those who complain and never support good candidates.
Good candidates in terms of WHAT exactly? Good impassioned speeches within the rubic of the Uniparty construct? This system is no longer salvagable imo.
When the US experiences wholesale economic collapse, it will no longer be the locus of empire power and its political bodies will no longer attract globalist interests.
After a wrenching interim period, America will normalize back into itself and be the better for it.
Jim Jordan is a great man.
I wish there were more like him.
Then, GIVE MONEY TO HIM, and Ron Johnson, Joe Kent, and others .
GIVE. DONATE. SUPPORT.
There are no sugar daddies in MAGA… Tag, it’s US.
Compare him to the odious McCarthy, RINO supreme, morally bankrupt, and bosom buddies with Ryan and cocaine Mitch. Jim Jordan should be the next speaker or Trump’s VP. All you Jordan bashers just head over to the Hill website and spew your lies.
Is the perfect the enemy of the good?
Is that right??? So that’s why the socialist fascists tried to take him out!!! Well, thanks Gonzotx!
According to his votes (actions) they aren’t getting their monies worth.
I cannot think of anyone who would be good enough for the cheese and whiners on this site.
All hat – no cattle. Where is the beef?
if obama taught us anything it is watch what they do, not what they say. he did have millennia of predecessors in that but his was a very salient example.
What? Give him a committee and see who gets branded
He has been wearing some new ties, now I kinda miss the old yellow one he always wore. So there is that.
Agreed! Yadda yadda yadda! Yawn……just keep praying is what I say Man will not rescue us only our Lord will do that if we repent!
you can pray, but at some point David had to pick up a stone.
And the Lord God Almighty guided that stone.
Otherwise what chance do you think a stone the size of a quarter had to hit a man more than 9 ft. tall in just the precise spot to knock him out long enough for David to cut his head off?
Man accomplishes nothing by himself, he is either with God or Lucifer….he must choose.
go away Joan.
Sorry – I don’t take orders from you.
Jim Jordan was a big part of the last Republican Presidency.
If people want to educate themselves, they should go to a Trump rally.
Republicans are for lower taxes and American jobs.
The Republican party delivered the beef, Democrats took it away.
There are no honest politicians in DC, from Ohio or any state. Not a single one.
The last Republican Presidency made many promises and WE kept them.
But, Sometimes Republicans have given Democrats something to get what they want.
It is how legislation is passed.
To get tax cuts we had to give the Ds money toward “green energy”.
The tax cuts created American jobs.
“Green energy” is not green and it’s not saving the planet.
“Green energy” is a false message The Ds will never stop telling.
I agree to a point, and know….I am in the oil biz and have been for almost 30 years.
It is a finite commodity, it will be around a lot longer than the Left would have you
believe but we must use the time we have it well…we need to invest in research and
bettering alternative energies rather than waiting till we need it and leaving our children’s
children to start perfecting then.
Thorium reactors. Its doable. Scalable.
Liddle Mikey DeRINO must be defeated May 3rd but Ohio GOPe chair Bob the Slob Paduchik is doing all he can to ensure that Les Wexner’s preferred candidate, Liddle Mikey DeRINO, gets re-elected.
Bob the Slob is using a vote splitter strategy in the primary with a fake cowboy grifter named Joe.
Some Ohioans named Joe really know how to win like Joe Burrow but the fake cowboy grifter Joe Blystone is there to lose in such a way that Liddle Mikey gets reelected and Les can keep making money with his land development deals.
Jim Renacci would be an upgrade as Ohio Governor and it would continue the evolution of flushing the Kasich, Voinovich, and DeRINO sewage down the drain.
Jordan is one of a measly 43 members of the Freedom Caucus within the 212 “Republicans” in CONgress.
So, effectively, he is urinating into the wind…
Well someone is saying “hey the house is not only on fire it’s fully involved”…but there’s no fire dept or water to put out the flames. So we watch it burn.
Build the Democrats a fire and they will be warm for the night. Set them on fire and they will be warm for the rest of their lives.
I’m thinking their afterlives will be pretty roasty toasty as well ,.For eternity . So why not treat them to a little preview ? It’s the least we can do for them after all they’ve done to us , I mean for us .
They are Satin’s children. They will be going home if they ever die.
As we “watch it burn” “The gentlemen has 30 more seconds.”
Jim Jordan for Speaker!
Just imagine if Jim Jordan had a one or more honest deputies and I’m thinking Sarah Palin might become one? Might be kind of like the (Wyatt) Earp brothers in that Hollywood airbrushed drama “Tombstone” ? I can’t wait 🙂
“…and Hell’s comin with me!”
I’ve been saying that for years! Jordan has worked with Trump extremely hard over the years & well deserves the position as Speaker of the House!!
Jordan is as bad as the rest of them. It’s like changing from one dirty pair of underwear to another. Why not just do the laundry? They all need to go.
I keep hearing that but no one is saying why you believe he is comprimised. They all take money, they have to to be able to keep going. What do you know that some of us don’t? They came after him hard.
Point to it please, I want to know.
People either repeat what they have read/heard or fact check for themselves.
One can imagine which category the Jim Jordan maysayers fall in.
Does Epstein ring a bell?
Look, if we want our good guys to NOT be beholden to certain donors, then WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE UP THE DIFFERENCE!
These are OUR PEOPLE. WE must support them.
Trump got 80 million votes… If just half of those voters (40M) gave a measly $5/month on autodebit, and an honest, smart PAC administrator, we could raise $200 million, each and every month, to fund our candidates.
We need professional, patriotic recruiters to find, vet, recruit, and fund our MAGA people, on a scale to dwarf the RNC, and be impervious the threats of Winred.
We can’t rely on good people to self-volunteer, and half be liars. We must do this on a professional basis, and PAY FOR IT.
And now, nobody will comment, ask to help, because it might involve MONEY. We sell our birthright for a mess of GOP pottage.
Prove me wrong.
Why in the world do we the people have to donate money to our representatives? Do any of us make as much money as they do with their salaries of $174,000 not counting perks?
Not very productive.
are you part of the solution? then you are part of the problem.
Jim Jordan was a big part of the last Republican Presidency.
The difference between the Rs and Ds in the white house should be obvious to everyone,
Do you miss Trump yet?
Tell us who you think makes the grade.
Jordan ran for minority leader against McCarthy after the 2020 election and lost be a wide margin. McCarthy will be the Speaker next year.
The GOP would never allow it.
Democrats have so many false faces
Any truth left in them erases
With the avalanche of all those lies
Dancing in their evermore empty eyes!
I appreciate that someone is speaking up. Thank you Rep. Jordan.
I agree, dpiddy. He’s been talking up a storm about the issues and he’s been angry. There’s a few others also but Jordan is doing a good job.
The camera field of view on these “speech” photos is usually very tight (small), so as not to reveal (i.e., to hide) the fact that no one is listening to the “speech.”
Many such “speeches” are performed to produce audio-visual “material” (referred to as such, because the so-called “news people” could care less) for the home town papers and local TV stations.
Most of the time, nothing of actionable substance is said and the content is forgotten as soon as the “material” is in the can.
Back home, the video will show on the 11:00 p.m. local news, between a car commercial and a drug commercial for irritable bowel syndrome.
That’s what makes the internet so valuable!
Boggywstew: I agree with you.
For what? For witnessing our do-nothing politicians doing nothing? I don’t understand this mentality. This is not a TV show. This is real life. We need people actually working to help us.
Amen!
and you are doing? what?
At the going rate for trolls and bots, he/she/it just made 16 cents!!
We have known this for decades and you present it like it’s fresh news. The camera has panned the House chamber since the 90s when Gingrich made his name by giving a daily speech at the end of each House session. It was done to embarrass him, but people from around the country didn’t care. It helped propel him to Speaker.
The House is always like this, as are committee meetings, etc. It is very rare everyone is in the House chamber with the exception of major House votes. Should Jordan consult with you to see if it’s OK to speak? What would you have him do? Just never say anything because very few people are in the chamber?
Did you actually watch his speech? At the beginning, the camera pans and it’s obvious the chamber is empty and when he is speaking, I count 10 empty seats around him. Unless someone is blind, it’s rather obvious the chamber is empty. Consider complaining about a democrat politician who is making your life miserable instead of someone who is trying to do something, even if it is trying to inform those who are uninformed. Half the country still believes the Trump/Russian collusion story.
To help you comment with some substance, is there anything you disagreed with what Jordan said or were you too consumed with concern by the empty chamber to pay attention?
I am more and more convinced that many of these posts are by Concern Trolls who do nothing on this site by make people doubt, fear, and want to shrink and hide. They may it seem they are on our side, but in the end they are just mud slingers or paid actors by someone… Concert Trolls.
These are like the puppets Sundance writes about. After a while you see them and then you know to ignore them. Sometimes tho, I use em for typing practice! 🙂
It was an excellent speech. Too bad not many people heard it. Thankful to see it here.
Speeches such as this are entered into the Congressional Record. The Record is perused by Congressional staffers daily and summarized in their daily briefings of their bosses. You don’t really expect the full House to actually come to work every day, surely. They after all have money to raise and palms to grease.
and OUR JOB is to spread this and other news in every corner of the internet…
we have the tools, we certainly have the interest, we certainly have the number of people who spend countless hours reading articles and making comments.
Q (rhetorical): How many commenters and readers her at CTH, actually link to sundance articles and invaluable video and other content to other social media and webplatforms?
it matters.
there is a huge appetite for truth. Set the lion free…it will defend itself.
I do, I post articles on Telegram, FB, etc. Forward to friends.
Outstanding! Gooooooooo Jim Jordan
Tooo bad they all left the room before he started speaking……they don’t really give a sheet……they just don’t care.
This is one man I do listen to speak. He always has something interesting to say.
Very good but, no mention of the most important
Assault on our democracy
Was the stolen election.
He never mentioned the
Political prisoners in jail in DC.
They do tend to get forgotten, it is a situation they all seem to want to ignore.
Yep, I noticed that. He probably didn’t want to be dragged in front of the Jan. 6th committee because, well, because he didn’t want to join all of those political prisoners in the DC jail! He was supposed to be on that committee, but Nazi Pelosi deemed no Republicans were fit to serve except those who could be controlled.
That is exactly what I was waiting for! Give ‘em heck on the election, then maybe, just maybe, I will think differently……
Bravo. It’s worst, because he’s accurate which makes us look helpless and weak in opposition to the bureaucracy/intelligence apparatus. They rub it in our faces as a reminder. Hopefully God prevails for western civilization.
Do not equate calm in the face of serious problems with weakness.
I learned a long time ago that those don’t act immediately are either great friends or great enemies.
They are just taking stock of the situation before they act.
Though many are clueless idiots as well. So you never know.
Best to sit back and figure things out.
Do not equate calm in the face of serious problems with weakness.
THE WRATH OF THE AWAKENED SAXON
by Rudyard Kipling
It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.
They were not easily moved,
They were icy — willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.
Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not suddenly bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.
Thanks for sharing this poem. It reminds me of the “cold anger” frequently mentioned by Sundance.
When the American began to hate…
That poem is an altered form of Kipling’s ‘The Beginnings’
It was published in 1917. I.e., in the middle of WWI.
The alteration changed the original ‘English’ to ‘Saxon’. Not sure who altered it or when. But changing the title too?
Speaking of Kipling, there is a site that has his works. While playing around there, I found this controversial poem. The title is extremely problematic today.
Everything I found about it said He wrote it to encourage America to be imperialist. (Peace talks would shortly grant Cuba and Phillipines etc, to our control.)
But I can’t read it but think he seems to think the work of bettering others has extremely high costs, is thankless and will come to naught. Some encouragement.
The White Man’s Burden – The Kipling Society
He does though present it as the work of good people. Maybe it appears that way to those who sit atop centuries of plunder, like Kipling who was born in India, but everywhere I look, the good people image is the cover for thieves.
Don’t think God will prevail in this case. God is extremely angry at all of us. Not just some, but ALL OF US. HE will prevail in ALL things, not just this case.
Aw say it again OL! I’m with you on this!
God always prevails. But those that abandon Him don’t.
No mention of the overwhelming (and mounting) evidence of the stolen election, but otherwise he nails it.
Dammit Jim (channeling Dr. McCoy), we are NOT a democracy, we are a REPUBLIC!!!
That we are “supposed” to be a Republic is also what I thought. But good grief and kudos to Jordan speaking to an empty room. I do really believe the “our long National nightmare”will be over, and hopefully, in my lifetime. Might find this song again in my music library, “About to Choke.” All I get is garbage on a search.
Am feeling “choked up” by so many things these days. And my comment here tonight is NOT BROUGHT TO YOU BY PHIZER.
About To Choke is a song by Rick Chesnut.
They just don’t realize what you are telling them. They all seem to think they are both the same thing….they aren’t.
Thank you!
Yes, apparently they want to forget that the term “Republic” stands for “representative” — which is also in their title!!!
If Jim Jordan speaks the truth in an empty Congress and some “white supremacist cisheteropatriarchy seditious insurrectionist domestic terrorist” online sites like this — and the MDM-MSM covers it only with a giant MyPillow — did it really happen?
It’s all an op. The vast majority are being gaslit 24×7. We’re not voting or suing our way out of this …
Don’t project your fatalistic diatribe onto the realists who know what is going on.
We are able to do our own critical thinking and have been making life changing decisions, based on our own research, for decades.
You have zero impact on critically thinking people.
The end.
Nope, not enough have the brain to do critical thinking…..they have all left the room ’cause they don’t want to hear it. Actually, cause they are afraid to hear the truth.
Great. When will your decisions impact the rest of us?
Or is it just “you and yours” and everyone else can go to hell?
no one is coming to save you.
Exactly
Jordan is MONEY!
Where is “The Greatest Military The World Has Ever Known” (certainly by far and away the most expensive) when its own country is undergoing a massive invasion?
…….when its own country is undergoing a massive invasion?
Problem being……it’s not an invasion, it’s an invitation.
The answer to your question is GONE. It has been removed. The military is not gonna help us as a country, and you know the massive invasion of foreign people sure aren’t gonna help any. They don’t care about us or the country; just what Biden will give them….what is what they are after.
most of the young men crossing the border could end up in the military or law enforcement…
California is passing a bill allowing non citizens to be employed in law enforcement…First you fire all the qualified folks for not getting a jab that doesnt work, then give that career to an illegal…go figure
Not where they need to be, that is for sure.
Our military is to protect other countries and to protect the interests of the insane elites in our country. Apparently, our border isn’t worth protecting because “we didn’t build that” or something.
Our military is busy getting groomed by Gen Milley and Lloyd Austin.
SAY WHAT…???!!!
Sen. Ted Cruz to Biden nominee to the FEC: “As an officer of the court, you were willing to put your name on a legal pleading alleging that the machines used in Georgia in 2018 were switching votes illegally from one candidate to another. Is that correct?”
Surprised?
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/04/running-interference-house-oversight-democrats-block-subpoena-hunter-biden-testify-congress/
Not a surprise here. Biden told them they couldn’t or he’d cut them all off.
Whoop de do. Notice how Republicans point out the obvious 18 months after the fact. He wasn’t making speeches about the steal, nor crushed liberties, no comment on feds support for big box stores while small business go bankrupt. Nothing about hypocrisy of state governors mandating masks while they carried on with their lives without them. Nothing about shutting down Keystone and 20-30k lost their jobs (10k pipeline workers and 20k logistics support).
Let’s be done with ALL of them. THEY do not represent US.
Actually, Jordan was making speeches and pointing out the election fraud, along with other Big Lies surfacing during the entire term of PDJT.
He was on Fox News, the House Floor, Real America’s Voice, and Newsmax, just to name a few public arenas to express his concerns, revelations and spread the message to the masses.
Where were you?
Same place 98% of Americans were… locked down
As for Jordan, seems he as well as Congress was ineffective.
What were witnessing is just how ineffective Congress is in representing their constituents. ALL three branches of government sole purpose is to protect their club and leave us to our fate.
Didn’t you have access to the internet, TV, etc.?
He was on TV, live streaming shows, fighting all the way.
Apparently, facts sometimes don’t fit in someone’s agenda
so, Mike, game over? so take off your helmet and hit the showers. we dont need you.
I would argue that Jim Jordan DOES represent his constituents in very red rural West Central Ohio.
Unfortunately Jim and his constituents are outnumbered nationally.
Jim Jordan would do great as Governor of Ohio but I sense he’s waiting to run vs the old drunken groomer pedophile Communist Sherrod Brown when that US Senate seat is up.
Nobody was listening. They didn’t hear him.
Why not fact realize it; there is not difference between a Republican and a Democrat…..not one bit . They all lie and just tell the public what they want the public to hear and hope they will believe it. Every one of them knows how to lie, very well.
And which politicians of perfection are you going to vote for?
What about this lie: most secure election in our history… c’mon jim jordan, get to the meat course — enough appetizers.
I just take solace in knowing that Democrats will get utterly demolished at every level comes November. If that does not happen, then I know without any doubt that our entire election system is rigged.
We know that already. Johnny Come lately?
It’s not a coincidence that Obummer showed up last night at the WH.
His arse is ass deep in the receipts on the laptop from hell.
He knows it and he knows we know it.
Shits about to get real… Finally and the fact that we have ringside seats is…
Priceless 🙌🏼
It’s almost 🍿 time Sundance.
Damage control. He has to figure out what the “f” is going on, and can’t risk the couriers, so he shows up in person for a series of private conversations.
He lives about 20 minutes away from that white house.
AND has been operating as the president since he walked out of that white house when President Donald John Trump walked in.
obama is the one who has been leading the ‘destruction of America’……
Yea. His supposed daughter getting tagged and doing blow with Hunter for starters
Once again I ask, where are the lawsuits to stop the most corrupt administration ever or at least slow them down? President Trump couldn’t go to the bathroom without a lawsuit being filed to stop him. Now, NOTHING,
PDJT just filed a really big lawsuit!
STILL NOT GONNA HAPPEN. SUITS ALREADY BEEN FILED, BUT NOBODY SHOWS UP IN COURT. CAN’T SUE NOBODY CAN YOU?
Good grief, you’ve made more “hopeless” posts today than usual. We get it already.
THERE ARE NONE. NOT A ONE AND NEVER WILL BE. CAN’T SUE THE BIGGEST NAMES IN CORRUPTION IN TODAY’S AGE. NOT ALLOWED.
Jim Jordan is one of the few.
Appreciate him.
Learn from him.
He’s a warrior.
He’s not perfect.
What you see is what you get.
Unfortunately, that is not quite enough. We the People need more than pretty speeches.
Jim Jordan is not superman or Jesus Christ. He’s just a man.
He does accept responsibility for his congressional duties and works hard for the American people; albeit a thankless job for someone who is not out there for money, power and control.
The stakes are higher now. We don’t need a superman and we’re not getting Jesus Christ, but we do need uncompromised honesty. Maybe that’s too much to ask. I like what Jordan says, but only a fool judges politicians by what they say. I watch his votes, and very often I agree. Other times I don’t – enough times to make me uneasy. All politicians are out there for power and control, that’s the attraction for them. But he’s better than most, I’ll give you that.
There are a lot of defeatist types on this post. Why would you kneecap a guy who is trying to makes a difference? Jim Jordan is probably one of the 10 people in DC who is trying to make a difference…but he is only one man out of 535 people who “represent” we the people.
What else would you have him do? He is one vote out of 535.
You all have a job-recruit MAGA candidates and run them for office. Jim Jordan needs numbers to make a difference.
Get busy.
what are YOU doing to help?
The question is not “what am I doing” – the question is what is Jordan doing? For instance, what is he doing for the Jan 6 people who are being illegally held in prison without bail? If more Republicans stood up for these people, and demanded their constitutional rights be upheld, maybe something would change.
His votes count and he votes for us. The speeches are in addition to him doing the job he was elected for. Why would anyone think it’s only about speeches?
The problem with Democrats’ lies is that at some point in time the evidence of the lies will come out.
Good for Jim Jordan speaking up.
Sadly, this is no lie…
.
Do Not Comply!
BUT THEY WILL. We live by madeates not laws.
Not this family!
God Bless and look over Jim Jordan and his family.
Jordan is a Fast Talker… which can get a little irritating at times… but it serves him well here.
In the canine world he would be a Jack Russell Terrier.
Lol for sure…or a dachshund, one who grabs on and never gives up.
The Capitol Fox, Euthanized After Attacks, Tests Positive for Rabies
The tale of a wild fox on Capitol Hill had captivated those who live and work there. Then a congressman and several others were bitten, the fox was captured and she turned out to be rabid.
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/06/us/politics/capitol-hill-fox.html
A fox that bit at least nine people on Capitol Hill, possibly including a congressman, tested positive for rabies on Wednesday, according to city health officials, after she had been euthanized in a grim turn in an episode that had briefly captivated those who live and work around Congress.
Are we suppose to cry for the FOX?
No the RABIES is the question
And those who were bitten by a RABID fox
Will any of them develop rabies
And HOW did a rabid fox get to the WH????
Biden has DOGS, who need to be WALKED on the WH grounds…
Biden’s dogs BITE people…
Several reports of foxes at the Capitol…
It bit a California Democrat Ami Bera and others
You have to have a series of anti-rabies injections of you are bitten by a rabid animal
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/04/aggressive-senate-fox-attacks-democrat-lawmaker-capitol-hill/
Well I wouldn’t suggest crying for anyone else on Capitol Hill.
Charlotte99: Rabies, they say? My guess is, the Fox had information that the Deep State didn’t want to be revealed.
Left untreated — these rabid Congressmen will go mad! Oh, wait!
The sons of thunder…
Going to have to remember to call Mr. Jordon’s office tomorrow to remind him we are a Republic and not a Democracy. I am really getting tired of everyone calling us a democrazy, it is being done by design by the Left aka Communists.
Before you do that; why not listen to what Jim Jordan said.
If you really listen carefully, he was quoting a representative from the other side of the aisle (a Democrat), who referred to this country as a “Democracy”.
It was not Jordan’s words.
FWIW…everything Jordan outlined is true. What is also true is no one in DC cares or is concerned about anyone knowing it is true.
We have one last chance in November.
No pressure.
PDJT endorsed Jim Jordan and 5 others today.
Now to those who believe that Jordan is doing nothing, a grifter and nothing matters anymore, read the President’s endorsement:
https://justthenews.com/government/congress/donald-trump-endorses-marjorie-taylor-greene-six-others
Now, all the naysayers can comment that PDJT has bad advisors and makes poor decisions.
To those I respond: Be happy with the installed occupant in the white house now, enjoy the exorbitant gas prices, heating oil, electricity bills, food, clothing and everything else that adorns your private life.
Do not complain about the reality today, because regardless of what a Jim Jordan or PDJT, (among other patriots) have done in the past, are doing today; it’s just not good enough, results are not to your satisfaction and the world has now ended.
Stay miserable, keep trolling, and always be very snarky.
Here! Here!
The Democrats are Brazen, Serial, Non-Stop LIARS, without any shame or conscience. It is a wonder to behold!
I see a lot of criticism of Jim Jordan in the comments. Well, let me remind you of this from Teddy Roosevelt re “The Man in the Arena:”
”It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
Jim Jordan didn’t touch on any international issue, only the domestic ones. The international ones would have taken as much time again. The US funding regime change all over the world. Or how about the US training and funding Nazis with our tax dollars…..(and once again, the media covering this up, encouraging people to support the Ukraine government because…RUSSIA)
Jim Jordan i stand with him 100%,
When we take the House back. WE CANNOT let Congress tell US who will be SOTH
This is the AMERICAN PEOPLES HOUSE
We must pick one TRUE Conservative to represent US
Jim Jordan gets it right! If people aren’t awake yet, their heads are buried in the sand. I swear, the Democrats are evil. They lie, and lie again.
I equate this to Republican propaganda… Use certain agents to push tough sounding accuracies while consistently undermining liberty and the constitution.
Say one thing… Do another…
You need at least a majority of the population to believe they have a choice of some type.
Both parties are Progressives corporations, leave them and learn to be objective!
good job there dev. undercutting a truthful voice by trying to link him with the RINOS. go away.
As a Buckeye, it’s hard to believe we can have the likes of Portman and Sherrod Brown along with the eloquent Jim Jordan. May he serve for many years to come. He is a treasure!
Look at the last 3 Ohio GOPe chair people:
Fat Matt Borges: prison
Jane Timken: pathetic
Bob the Slob Paduchik: pathetic.
All answer to Les Wexner, the Lindner family, and corporate donors like Nationwide Insurance, P&G, and the Cleveland Clinic to name a few.
worth a listen . HE KNEW during the Obama years.
Curious when (during the O reign) this was from.
In a weird kind of way, I’m almost interpreting this video as his way of inciting white people to riot, but, he clearly is against B.O. so maybe not.
I see he had filings against his organization in 2020, so the deep state probably targeted him for speaking out.
BOOM.
“Our democracy” is their euphemism for the ongoing coup. Once you realize this it makes a lot more sense when you hear them say it in context. If something is a danger to “our democracy” that means that it could lead to exposure and defeat of the coup.
The guy beside Jim, What was that hand motion at 5:1 mark ?
Ok, I give up.
What’s FWIW ?
FWIW…For what it’s worth…
(FWIW a quick internet search would have answered this question and been faster than waiting for another poster’s answer. No snark intended.)
Here ya go. This’ll come in handy since I see a lot of these used here in comments.
So bookmark it or print out the list for future ref.

Jim Jordan must become Speaker if and when the Republicans take over. No more McCarthy!
Was anyone there to hear his speech? All I see behind him are empty seats.
I posted this yesterday on this site. Jim Jordan has, in one sense answered the call, so I believe the time has come to repost this:
While I am not one that thinks kindly of Cromwell vis-a-vis Ireland, as I view the machinations of Congress over the past several years, would there be one among them that would stand up for the citizens of this great country and give such a speech, if only figuratively at this point in time (with thanks to a commenter about Covid-19 at http://www.conservativewoman.co.uk):
Oliver Cromwell: ‘In the name of God, go!’ speech dismissing Rump Parliament – 1653
20 April 1653, London, England
It is high time for me to put an end to your sitting in this place,
which you have dishonored by your contempt of all virtue, and defiled by your practice of every vice.
Ye are a factious crew, and enemies to all good government.
Ye are a pack of mercenary wretches, and would like Esau sell your country for a mess of pottage, and like Judas betray your God for a few pieces of money.
Is there a single virtue now remaining amongst you? Is there one vice you do not possess?
Ye have no more religion than my horse. Gold is your God. Which of you have not bartered your conscience for bribes? Is there a man amongst you that has the least care for the good of the Commonwealth?
Ye sordid prostitutes have you not defiled this sacred place, and turned the Lord’s temple into a den of thieves, by your immoral principles and wicked practices?
Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole nation. You were deputed here by the people to get grievances redressed, are yourselves become the greatest grievance.
Your country therefore calls upon me to cleanse this Augean stable, by putting a final period to your iniquitous proceedings in this House; and which by God’s help, and the strength he has given me, I am now come to do
I command ye therefore, upon the peril of your lives, to depart immediately out of this place.
Go, get you out! Make haste! Ye venal slaves be gone! So! Take away that shining bauble there, and lock up the doors.
In the name of God, go!

What is “FWIW” ?
Thanks in advance.
“For what it’s worth”
Here’s a great little reference table for most of the colloquial abbreviations used in texting:
https://www.smart-words.org/abbreviations/text.html
Is it me?
Whenever someone (including Sundance) posts or comments something positive about a Republican – ANY Republican, there are a flock of naysayers, moaners and groaners that come out of the woodwork to disparage, discredit and attack that Republican!
I think some of those whiners and complainers don’t even like apple pie, sunshine, fresh air and sliced bread.
But, everyone is entitled to their own opinion – as discouraging as it may sound and as insignificant as it may be!
Have a great day!
Sorry Bub but you ain’t paying attention if you think Captain Obvious(Jordan) is breaking new ground. His tweets are stale and his speeches are pointless. Let’s see some action.
Oh wait, when we had the majority in the House this gasbag lambasted google for censorship yet took $20,000(?) from them. He says they were just exercising their 1st Amendment rights.
Funny, I wrote and asked him what he’s do if LAMBA(or whatever) ponied up $20K. Never did get an answer.
The fact is these blowhards are great at…bloviating but when the rubber meets the road I’ll bet you a dollar he votes for McCarthy if we flip it. McCarthy, for you memory challenged bots, wrote a book with Paul Ryan after Ryan spent years with the last majority slow walking Trump’s promises, touting how fookin’ wonderful he was.
Good Post, MM
We all should be able to participate in discourse without derision from other commenters, mminwa.
Know it all attitudes are so yesterday!
I think that is a very unfair and quite inaccurate account of people like jim jordan.
If you think for a single second that the likes of jim jordan, nunez, hawley, lee, johnson, jefferson, and many others are not effective that’s an opinion I have to strongly disagree with.
The reality is they are fighting to make sure this information is OUT THERE. THE TRUTH.
We live in a main stream maniac controlled propaganda culture. Look around. It’s nearly impossible for people to get straight talk.
It’s also important that congress has zero law enforcement powers. None. They are not executive or judicial. Period. There is only so much that congress can do. I of course recognize that members of congress have been utter failures IN THEIR SHARE AND EQUAL POWER capacity, but we are fighting against an overwhelming majority in congress and every other branch of this USG that will not tolerate the truth to be told, will persecute it, ignore it and gloss over it and twist it backwards from daylight to nightime.
Jim Jordan is a truth tellor. You can’t possible expect him to single handedly turn the entire criminal cabal on its heels. Not even President Trump could perform that task.
Both are opening locked doors, turning on the lights…
the REST is entirely up TO YOU.
and THAT is where the power of stage 3 to stage 3 revolution happens.
WITH THE PEOPLE.
getting well informed is a very big part of that transition.
I agree there are some inconsitencies, and yes the contributions from high tech adversaries is more than worrisome.
You are aware that President Trump and his campaign received quite a bit of money from these same tech companies?
it’s a reality that we don’t have to like, but it is a reality we have to accept is the truth.
Money makes politics happen in DC. And givers are rarely ever declined.
God Bless America
Amen, very well said.
And unfortunately (and I say this as a veteran of many political campaigns), conservatives are CHEAP.
D3mocrats give, and bundle, etc, and perfected the art of small-dollar campaigns, from the founding of ActBlue in 2004.
I’m on a modest retirement income, but try to give$200-$300 per month to MAGA, winnable-race candidates.
Thats Christmas money, college fund money, etc. Sacrificial money. If not now, WHEN?
Yes, all you named and more have been effective at getting the truth out there. It’s been a tough fight what with the MSM ready to cover, outright lie for the leftist about everything.
Hopefully, we’re now closer to seeing justice served because of the work Jim Jordan and many others have done.
Well said. Not all Republicans are traitors, there are some great ones, including Jim Jordan.
Sorry, I’m in the camp that says the vast majority are corrupt, bought and paid for. I also contend that because of their lack of focus and determination, they could of easily gotten rid of Pelosi, her January 6th conniving and her hundreds of millions she and her husband garnered because of her inside knowledge. Same with Grassley sitting on Hunter Biden’s laptop info for months to just now decide to reveal it.
that is perfectly acceptable. My opinion is just one of many. I am not indebted to you nor am I responsible for reversing your decisions and opinions.
The reasons that I (often) comment as a reply here is when I feel there is the other side of the story that needs to get expressed. By NO MEANS do I even pretend to KNOW the complete other also sides of the story beyond even what you and I hold.
I get alot of feedback too. Here and elsewhere. I contemplate all of it. I am not a spectator, I am a participant.
if there is one thing I have learned is to keep an open mind and not get locked up. it’s been a problem in my development as a Christian and as a citizen for far too long.
I work at it constantly and with more focus than ever. There will be a time in the next 15 years where I will no longer have the ability to form a solid function. So my “time” is precious.
everyone that is born into this world will eventually come to this same reality. start early…begin an abundant life. Make your life mean something. One does not have to be the hollywood hero to do the right thing.
Amen to that.
Congress has access to both executive and judicial power through administrative agencies they have established with appointed officials that bypass constitutional limits without hindrance. This is how the Capital Police arrested and continue to confine J6 political prisoners.
It is also how administrative agencies are able to execute sentences that would usually require trial by peers, e.g. seizure of personal property.
Now that JoeBama has installed another wacko in SCOTUS, America is truly in trouble
We have a uni party in America. democrat government republican government. More debt more crime more wars.
I would vote for someone else then.
I like Jordan but I agree his speeches need help, a bit stale is fair in his delivery to me.
Paul Ryan, Ugh, never a fan. McCarthy in my view is not the fighter we need, slow, and he rooms with his buddy Frank Luntz likely adding his 2 cents.
“…..you ain’t paying attention…”
The phrase choice of people who think they are more in the know than the next guy.
These folks might as well be saying, ” I wish Jim Jordan would shut up, enough already”
which may be what they are thinking
It’s time for the treasonous degenerate faggot anti-American scum like you to get out of our country. Stop your whining and leave.
We don’t want to live in your totalitarian third world black hell 🕳!
America- love it or leave it! Leftist scumbags leave now and don’t ever come back!
Troll alert.
I acknowledge your reply however I don’t see where it applies to what I said.
“Sorry Bub but you ain’t paying attention if you think Captain Obvious(Jordan) is breaking new ground.” That was never said nor implied.
Whether he said something that I or other construe as being positive does not mean he’s breaking new ground.
I am entitled to my opinion as are you – regardless if I agree with it. And I certainly wouldn’t call you out over yours.
Have a great day.
the completely disgusting former RepBarney Frank MA. did say one meaningful thing when asked about donations from special interest groups. He said something like “I talk the money and then do what I want, I am an ingrate in that regard”.
take the money
Convention of states.com
The democratic party does not work for the American people. The republican party is worse for they are idle and profit from the chaos.
Agree.
Yesterday Mike Huckabee had a great comment about these types……..” if you served them prime ribe eye with baked potatoe, and sliced their steak for them, they would still complain”…………..
Governor Huckabee served up some rotten apples when he pardoned and released Maurice Clemmons.
4 police officers ambushed / murdered as they ate lunch.
Wayne Dumond rapist / murderer got an early release from governor Huckabee too.
Another bad decision with consequences.
You found one thing to complain about on Huckabee. Is that it?
No man is perfect. Even Jesus fell three times and he was Jesus for kreyes’sakes’
Michael Huckabee is one of the finest, cleanest, American Patriots in our history. Would have been an amazing candidate and probably WON in 2008.
His daughter is cut from the same impeccable cloth.
Can’t stand the guy…
Let’s bash our own side, ‘cos the left really needs reinforcements, and we have no problem with demoralization as it is, right?
This is a psychological battle as well as political, and you’re helping the other side when you join them in bashing those who are America first. Why help them when they already have all the institutions on their side? They need MORE help from you?
Or is there another reason? ‘Cos it doesn’t look too good from where a lot of patriots are sitting. This is NOT the time to join the opposition and feed them more ammunition. Impossible to believe those who would do that at such a time love our country.
I’m not sure we the people HAVE a side.
I wholeheartedly agree that there are RINO’s in the party. Jim Jordan is not one of them. For those people bloviating below their frustrations they are aiming at the wrong target. While it’s true you can’t please everyone, rowing against people who try to improve the problem is utterly ridiculous.
Mr. Jordan is one of the good guys even though the good guys don’t seem to be very imaginative when it comes to finding solutions to our grievances. For example… Who filed a complaint with the international human rights committee regarding our tortured J6 prisoners? Yup…the niece of a known terrorist! Now why, in God’s name, didn’t one of our blowhard Republicans think of that a year ago, or 6 months ago?? I’ll wait…🤔🤨
Agree. When we have the globalist left threatening totalitarianism, the idea that trolls come on here to bash Jordan, Trump, and others who couldn’t be more pro-American for “not doing enough”—- without a word to say about our real enemies— it’s very telling.
With “allies” like them, who need political opponents?
Trolls have nothing better to do. Perhaps a good cleansing would alleviate that itchy anal bug in it or the infected hair across it…….. ha-ha-ha!
…sorry trolls……….nothing personal!
I guess pointing out the obvious sometimes bothers the believers in their religious faith around Republican false prophets.
Propaganda is propaganda is propaganda…
If JJ was a honest broker and a decent conservative he would be telling his followers the truth. They have no party… Republicans are nothing more than juxtaposed progressives.
Then again, many who wish to call themselves conservative are the same.
Maybe it’s time we quit using misnomers like RINO and neocon and start being honest about the division? You certainly don’t fix anything by blaming the symptoms and not addressing the problem.
valid points…….
“juxtaposed progressives” is a classic……….
