'Oh boy, GOP means business now': Jim Jordan sends angry letter to Treasury Secretary

Now Rep. Jim Jordan is yelling at poor Janet Yellen.

The Ohio Republican Friday posted to X a letter demanding the Treasury Secretary hand over Bank Secrecy Act suspicious activity reports as part of his probe into Jan. 6 Capitol attack investigations he argues may have violated Americans' civil rights.

"The Committee is authorized to conduct oversight of matters involving civil liberties and criminal law to inform potential legislative reforms," Jordan informs Yellen.

He then explains the Judiciary's "Weaponization of the Federal Government" subcommittee is authorized to investigate "issues related to the violation of the civil liberties of the United States."

Jordan focuses in Bank of America filings made between Jan. 15 and Jan. 18, about a week after angry supporters of former President Donald Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol in a failed attempt to overturn the 2020 election.

FBI investigator Steven Jensen would later tell House investigators Bank of America provided them with names of clients who used their credit and debit cards in D.C. on Jan. 6, and these names were cross-checked against people who had bought firearms.

Jordan last year subpoenaed Bank of America and noted in yet another demanding letter that the bank "has refused to provide the Committee and Select Subcommittee with the filing it turned over to the FBI."

In November, Bank of America told Politico it had "followed all applicable laws in our interactions with the Trump Administration’s Treasury Department and law enforcement."

Jordan's letter was met with mixed reviews on X. While some expressed interest in Jordan's investigation, others had doubts.

"So now stop talking and take action," replied @Heiner190 Friday. "Still no impeachment of Biden, the border is still not secured, the traitor is still in the white house and you are sending letters to Yellen?"

"NOOOO! Not a letter!" added Ted O'Connor. "Oh boy, GOP means business now."
