Donald Trump’s first impeachment inquiry before running for a House seat last November, interrupted to ask when Democrats on the committee might get a chance to see notes or transcripts from these alleged meetings.Jordan appeared caught off guard.
He responded by saying the information would be made available “when [the whistleblowers] testify,” but Goldman wasn’t having any of it.“You don’t have any transcriptions of their interviews?” he pressed.“We have the first ones, and we have the dozens who’ve come and talked to our office,” Jordan awkwardly replied, adding more interviews would be happening in the coming weeks.“You just said dozens,” Goldman pressed. “Do you have notes from those?
Or are they just talking to your staff?”Republicans have apparently had “dozens” of secret meetings with whistleblowers yet provided no notes or interview transcripts from those meetings to Democrats.If there are notes, let us see them.
If there are no notes, how can you write a “report” based on those interviews? pic.twitter.com/9azj2FCIDxThe tense dialogue went on for almost two minutes before Jordan eventually brushed Goldman off and resumed the committee meeting as if he hadn’t just called out in front of everyone for lying about the number of whistleblowers he had spoken to and having zero evidence to support anything he just said.Here’s what folx on Twitter have been saying about the whole thing…In a Congress full of Jim Jordan's, be a Dan Goldman.
