Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) then informed Jordan that his time had expired.

But Jordan refused to heed Clyburn

That’s when you turn off his microphone.

It almost sounds like this stupid goon holds Fauci responsible for Covid. Oh, yeah, Jim, we’re just doing this for fun and because there’s nothing else better to do you fricken lame brain. Maybe the lame brain wants Fauci to get in touch with the virus gods so they can call the whole thing off.

Clyburn was trying to maintain some decorum. Auntie Maxine laid the smack down on Jordan for stepping on her time. He’s a very rude troll. Someone should have said to him, “You want to get back to normal, tell all of your constituents to take the vaccine.”

“We had 15 days of ‘slow the spread’ turn into one year of lost liberty,” Jordan said. “What metrics, what measures, what has to happen before Americans get more freedoms back?

Yay Maxine! (er, Representative Waters). About time somebody called this boob on his deranged, nonstop rantings.

And why is it that the self-proclaimed “Party of Personal Responsibility” absolves itself of responsibility to this country, or to society, or to other children of God? Why is that? What’s wrong with Republicans? (Rhetorical questions)

Wait, is this Jordan’s prediction for his buddy Matt Gaetz?

It infuriates me to see assholes wear masks like that, especially when it’s assholes like him doing it intentionally.

Oh, you haven’t heard this guy yell? He doesn’t need no stinkin’ mic. And you don’t want to encourage him.

Jim Jordan has contempt for the so-called notion of identity politics, but he willingly and aggressively identifies as an asshole.
