'Another frivolous action': Jim Jordan slammed for latest House investigation

The House Judiciary Committee, led by far-right Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), issued a subpoena to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis Friday over claims that her office misused federal grant funds and fired a whistleblower.

The subpoena is unrelated to Willis' election interference/RICO case against former President Donald Trump and his allies who, the prosecutor alleges, violated state laws when they tried to overturn now-President Joe Biden's victory in the 2020 election. Some of the co-defendants have made plea deals in the case, including former Trump attorneys Jenna Ellis and Sidney Powell.

The news of the subpoena is receiving plenty of reactions on X.

Far-right conspiracy theorist and Trump ally Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) applauded the subpoena, tweeting, "I fully support bringing Fani before the House Judiciary Committee for questioning."

And similarly, Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), another Trump supporter, posted, "I completely support subpoenaing Fani Willis."

But others on X slammed issuing the subpoena as empty political theatrics.

Author Dianne Callahan, responding to reporting by CNN's Zachary Cohen, posted, "This will never happen. Jim Jordan has no authority here. Georgia's RICO case is a state matter, not federal. This is just a waste of time on Jim Jordan's part, another frivolous action."

Cohen noted, "Jordan is demanding Willis hand over documents…. The subpoena comes after Willis denied several requests from Jordan for access documents she says are evidence in a pending criminal investigation."

Politicus USA's Sarah Reese Jones argued that Jordan was "abusing his power and attempting to illegally interfere in a criminal investigation by subpoenaing Fulton County DA Fani Willis."

Activist Dianne Sheehan said of Willis and Jordan, "She needs to press obstruction charges on him.

Union organizer Gordon Forbes tweeted, "They tried this with Alvin Bragg too, and it backfired on them."

Anti-Donald Trump activist Kathy Ibbetson posted, "JUST the fact that Jim Jordan can even issue a subpoena is such b—----.
