House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) defended former President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner on Thursday after Hunter Biden, during testimony with House lawmakers, raised questions about his foreign dealings.

Jordan said the scrutiny of Kushner, who was also an adviser to Trump, was “ridiculous.”

“The idea that Jared Kushner did something wrong is ridiculous,” Jordan told Newsmax’s Eric Bolling during a Wednesday night appearance on “The Balance.”

“I mean, the Trump family has been investigated more than any family on the planet, and what they’ve attempted to do to President Trump and been doing to President Trump over the last seven years is unbelievable,” Jordan said.

    “I mean, the Trump family has been investigated…".

    Investigated, charged, and found guilty in a court of law. With more cases pending.

    But it’s not a surprise that Gymmie looks the other way.

      Still not investigated half as thoroughly as Hilary’s email accounts.

          Friendly reminder that the investigation was into a real estate deal, not a blow job. That was a bonus when they got nothing in the real investigation.

          Investigated = looked with their eyes open

    Even though this is most likely an exxaggeration by a wide margin, there actually is a reason why this family of crime and fraud is investigated.

    Gym Rape Jordan would defend drowning innocent babies if it served his purpose. If the man said that the name of this planet was earth, I would fact check him.

    House Judiciary Committee Chair Gym Jordan…

    How the hell is this my reality? Seriously. I know I wasn’t a great person, and did a lot of acid back in the 80s and 90s, but this is like the most bizarre, worst flashback I’ve experienced.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) defended former President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner on Thursday after Hunter Biden, during testimony with House lawmakers, raised questions about his foreign dealings.

    “The idea that Jared Kushner did something wrong is ridiculous,” Jordan told Newsmax’s Eric Bolling during a Wednesday night appearance on “The Balance.”

    Hunter Biden appeared for a closed-door deposition Wednesday, where he was grilled by Republicans about his foreign business deals.

    He secured a $2 billion investment from Saudi Arabia six months after leaving his Oval Office post, a deal that raised questions.

    The scrutiny intensified after a 2022 New York Times report detailed how the Saudi sovereign’s advisory panel was not supportive of investing in Kushner’s private equity firm, pointing to “the inexperience of the … management.” The doubts were quashed by a bigger advisory board led by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, an ally of the Trump administration.

    However, Comer drew a distinction at the time between the two cases, saying Kushner secured the funds after leaving office, while Hunter Biden’s deals came through while his father was the vice president.

      Bad bot. Summary makes it seem like Hunter secured the Saudi funding after leaving the Oval Office.

        Honestly, the bot butchers the articles so frequently I don’t bother with its summaries anymore.
