an exercise in finding the facts and that's what's unfortunate about this speaker's move. it just goes to show, it begs the question that all of us should be asking, what is the speaker afraid of? i'll leave you with that. jim jordan? >> thank you, jim. the leader and jim are exactly right. this has always been about politics and today's actions of the speaker just confirm that. but frankly, and i've said this before, what else are they going to talk about? the folks on the january 6th committee. are they going to talk about crime? fact that crime is up in every major urban area in this country? are they going to talk about the border crisis? think about this. march was the highest month on record until may, and until june, are they going to talk about inflation? that the price of eggs up, the price of milk is up, the price of bread is up, the price of airline tickets is up, the price of everything is up.
