House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Jim Jordan (R-OH) on Wednesday, during a contentious exchange at a hearing, asked fellow committee member Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) why his wife, a former Treasury Department official, unmasked Michael Flynn.
Jordan had just finished questioning Google CEO Sundar Pichai over the search engine’s bias against conservatives and whether he would commit to not interfering in the upcoming election to help Joe Biden.
After Jordan finished his questioning, Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon (D-PA) called his concerns “fringe conspiracy theories.”
Jordan responded, “We have the email, there is no fringe conspiracy,” in reference to an email by a Google employee discussing steps they had taken to boost Latino voter turnout in “key states” in 2016.
Subcommittee Chairman David Cicilline (D-RI) then began scolding Jordan for interrupting during Scanlon’s time to speak. Raskin then yelled to Jordan, “Put your mask on.”
Jordan fired back: “Mr. Raskin, you want to talk about masks? Why would the Deputy Secretary of the Treasury unmask Michael Flynn’s name?”
Jordan was referring to Raskin’s wife, Sarah Bloom Raskin, who was one of the Obama appointees who requested the unmasking of Flynn, who was the incoming national security adviser at the time.

Flynn is a criminal. Jordan is a loud, fast-talking, oaf and enabler of high-school sex abuse.
tell us how you really feel snowflake or just fake what we do know is you are a far left Democrat with not much education
1:53 will say anything to get a response. Hiding in the basement afraid of germs- disgusted with oneself - depressed- fat - irritated movies theaters are closed - nana said clean up this pig 🐷 hole. So typical- thru out shock factor to see who takes a bite. Amen

3:23 Don’t mind 1:53 it’s nap time, he’s grouchy and he didn’t get his poptarts this morning.😂
1:53 is a weak, do nothing, non-contributor. Cut off the allowance and it disappears.
The people that forced him to plead guilty by threatening to go after his son are the real criminals...the list of the real criminals is endless in the swamp that is DC
After November he will be in the big chair and will deny Nadler a pee break.
