Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, on Thursday blasted Democrats for their push of a bipartisan commission to investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, calling it a thinly veiled political assault&nbsp;on former President Donald Trump &#8212;&nbsp;one in a series of them.<\/p>\n<p>The top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee labeled the proposed commission \u201cImpeachment 3.0,\u201d the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtontimes.com\/news\/2021\/may\/20\/jim-jordan-blasts-jan-6-commission-get-trump-panel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Washington Times <\/a>reported Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is one more chance for them to go after President Trump because \u2026 they don\u2019t want President Trump to run in 2024,\u201d he told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on \u201cMornings with Maria.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>House Democrats, <a href=\"http:\/\/https:\/\/www.newsmax.com\/us\/capitol-commission-house-senate\/2021\/05\/19\/id\/1022030\">with the support of 35 Republicans, <\/a>passed a resolution Wednesday with a vote of 252-175 to form a Jan. 6 Commission to investigate the attack. The measure would create a 10-member commission \u2014 with five members appointed by each party \u2014 to investigate the storming of the Capitol in protest of the certification of the Electoral College victory for President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p>Trump on Thursday condemned the \u201cwayward\u201d GOP supporters of the measure.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;See, 35 wayward Republicans \u2014 they just can\u2019t help themselves,&#8221; Trump said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.donaldjtrump.com\/news\/statement-by-donald-j-trump-45th-president-of-the-united-states-of-america-05.20-21\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sometimes there are consequences to being ineffective and weak. The voters understand!&#8221; He stated calling out Republicans like Sens. Mitt Romney of Utah, Ben Sasse of Nebraska and Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyo.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan echoed Trump\u2019s anger, calling the legislation \u2014 which faces stiff opposition in the Senate \u2014 is a hit job on Trump and a distraction from the mounting troubles surrounding President Biden.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe went from energy independence to gas lines. We went from a secure border to chaos. We went from peace in the Middle East to rockets being fired on our ally Israel. That\u2019s what 120 days of the Biden administration will give you,\u201d he told the news outlet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey want to talk about anything else, so why not go after President Trump&nbsp;again? That\u2019s what this is all about.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was in Texas last weekend and I saw, going by this one house, on the flagpole [was] the American flag, the Texas flag and then the third flag was \u2018Trump 2024.\u2019 That\u2019s what the Democrats are afraid of. They want to make this a partisan activity. It is going to have Democrat staff. We know how these things are going to work. It is just going to be one more attack on President Trump and on Republicans,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The bipartisan commission legislation faces stiff opposition in the Senate. Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., announced he\u2019d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsmax.com\/newsfront\/mcconnell-jan-6-commission-opposes\/2021\/05\/19\/id\/1021966\/\">oppose <\/a>the proposal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter careful consideration, I\u2019ve made the decision to oppose the House Democrats\u2019 slanted and unbalanced proposal for another commission to study the events of January the 6th,\u201d&nbsp; McConnell said on the Senate floor.<\/p>\n<p>The proposed panel would consist of five Democratic and five Republican appointees and would face a 2021 deadline to complete its work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rep.
