Jim "Jacket Off" Jordan has a long way to go before he masters the art of the "zinger."

“I would just ask a fundamental question, why are we here?” Jordan asked. “It seems to me the reason we’re here is that the Mueller report wasn’t what Democrats thought it was going to be.”

“In fact, it was just the opposite,” he said.

Rep. David Cicilline (D-RI) wondered if Jordan had information the rest of the committee did not.

“You’ve made reference to the Mueller report. Have you seen it? Because we haven’t,” he pointed out.


Jordan said he’d seen Barr’s summary but did not address whether he’d viewed the full Mueller report.

distract us from Mueller and Russia by doing some stuff I cant talk about.

THIS is what is important for NOW, later we will see if people will WAKE the FUCK up about who is really who they say they are!

Barr's a good little doggie. With just a few simply worded commands, he will sit, beg, roll over, fetch...and deliver the report to his lord and master.

"From your remarks, it's apparent you've read the Mueller report, Rep. Jordan. What specifically isn't in it that you think Democrats thought should be in it?"

Let him pull his foot out of his own mouth, and stammer out that, no, he hasn't seen it. "So, you were just talking through your hat. Got it."

self-righteous, garbage spewing, faking, bragging assholes like this guy..

In fact I am playing right now as an extra free-lancer' in an orchestra with a percussionist just like this guy..
Insufferable.

Playing the Mahler 1st Symphony Thurs and Fri nights... The guy doesn;t know shit about anything, especially what the fuck kind of triangle to use and how to play it.

Now you might think, hey its just a triangle. Don't believe it!!!

Fortunately, I'm playing the 1st timpani part and am far enough away I can just ignore him... Except for the crappy triangle playing.


However, I have a deal with the conductor.. At the last rehearsal, he will ask the jerk for a different triangle. Of course, he won't have one. "Does anyone have the right type of triangle?" Why, maestro, yes I just happen to have one. At which time I get out my $300 9" hand hammered, UK-made bronze triangle and hardened steel, weight balanced beater-----
