Rep. Jordan then ripped DAG Rosenstein for threatening Congressional staff members. “It’s time for House Leadership to stand up.”
Jim Jordan tweeted: Rod Rosenstein threatened congressional staff. When the bully picks on your little brother, you have to respond. It’s time for House Leadership to stand up.

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein threatened to subpoena emails, phone records and other documents of Republican lawmakers on the House Intel Committee back in January, confirming previous reports
On Tuesday, Fox News Catherine Herridge reported on emails obtained memorializing a January 18, closed-door meeting with DOJ, FBI and House Intel members where Rosenstein threatened GOP-led staffers if they didn’t stop their investigation.
Of course the FBI and DOJ are disputing this account and defending Rosenstein.
The swamp always protects their own.
On Tuesday night Jeff Sessions told Tucker Carlson that he did not believe Rosenstein threatened Congress.
House Leadership needs to clean house and get rid of Sessions, Rosenstein and Wray.
UPDATE: GOP lawmakers Mark Meadows and Jim Jordan officially introduced the resolution Wednesday afternoon.
