The House Oversight Committee is hearing testimony today from a former attorney for Donald Trump, Michael Cohen:

Ranking Republican on the committee, Jim Jordan, found something quite ironic about the witness that was called by Democrats:
.@Jim_Jordan to @RepCummings:" Your first big hearing. Your first announced witness, Michael Cohen. I want everyone in this room to think about this…the first announced witness for the 116th Congress is the guy going to prison for lying to Congress"

This will leave a mark:

?JIM JORDAN ?
"This may be the first time someone convicted of lying to Congress has appeared again so quickly in front of Congress. Certainly it's the first time a convicted perjurer has been brought back to be a star witness in a hearing."
He's right, you know. pic.twitter.com/98ekYV1u1c

"Certainly it's the first time a convicted purger has been brought back to be a star witness in a hearing," Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) slams Cummings for Cohen hearing. "And there is the reason this is the a first, because no other committee would do it." https://t.co/4McXejykRV pic.twitter.com/VhHLuoWsEi

And the day is young.
Every R should yield to Jordan. He should repeat his opening statement over and over.
