Jim Jordan ‘weaponization’ probe draws early flak after disputed testimony
Fox News
Jim Jordan has the right to subpoena anyone he wants as a House subcommittee chairman, but he also has to prove his case. And the Ohio congressman is off to a rocky start.
The Democrats, for their part, are playing aggressive defense, trying to discredit the probe before it really gets off the ground. The GOP says it needs more resources. Howard Kurtz is the host of FOX News Channel's MediaBuzz (Sundays 11 a.m.-12 p.m. ET). Based in Washington, D.C., he joined the network in July 2013 and regularly appears on Special Report with Bret Baier and other programs.
The danger for Jordan is that the whole thing turns into a partisan food fight, causing many people to tune out. Or if it drags on so long that it becomes forgettable. Or, like the Whitewater prosecutor Ken Starr winding up interrogating Monica Lewinsky, goes off in a different direction.
