Opinion: Witch hunt-loving Jim Jordan ducking and dodging Jan. 6 testimony

Let’s say there was a Democrat who lost a presidential election but couldn’t admit it. He/she – with a well-known history for incendiary rhetoric – whipped hardcore supporters into a frenzy, telling them to march on the U.S. Capitol to "fight like hell” to “stop the steal."

And those rampaging Democrats did as they were urged, some viciously attacking and wounding law enforcement officers, forcing their way into the building and hunting for lawmakers – possibly to hang them by a makeshift gallows they had erected outside.

I’m pretty sure that Republicans would be outraged at this unprecedented attack on American democracy. They’d launch a full investigation, and demand that the American people learn the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Republicans don't want to investigate


We know this, because that’s what they did after the 2012 terror attack on a U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya – an attack that left four Americans dead. It occurred on President Barack Obama’s watch, and Republicans saw a chance to go after not just him but someone they probably hated even more: Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
