Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, criticized the Jan. 6 committee’s handling of the Capitol attack investigation, during an interview with Newsmax on Wednesday, citing concerns over partisan bias and a lack of cross-examination.

Rep. Jordan expressed skepticism about the findings of the Jan. 6 committee, stating on “Rob Schmitt Tonight,” “Yeah, I mean, it doesn’t surprise us. Remember the whole story. Nancy Pelosi was concerned about the optics, and I think Congressman Murphy said it best because of what took place in the summer of 2020 with the riots and protests all over the country and the violence that occurred in those; she didn’t want this big presence there even though the president said, ‘Yeah, we should have the National Guard there’ — she didn’t want that.”
