Jim Jordan Suddenly Remembers At Least One Other Call With Trump On Jan. 6: Report"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Rep. Jim Jordan\u00a0(R-Ohio) has\u00a0suddenly remembered <em>another<\/em> phone call \u2014 or more \u2014 that he had with then-President Donald Trump while insurrectionists rampaged through the Capitol on January 6, Politico reported Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Some observers speculated that the Ohio congressman may be\u00a0trying to get his story straight if he\u2019s\u00a0called to testify before the House Select Committee investigating the events of Jan. 6 \u2014 including looking into activities by Trump and GOP lawmakers. The committee revealed just days ago that it would seek phone records\u00a0and other communications as part of its probe.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, Jordan indicated he had a single phone conversation with Trump on Jan. 6 but was fuzzy on the details. He couldn\u2019t remember if he talked to the president before, during, or after the Capitol riot and apparently couldn\u2019t recall specifically what was said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI spoke with him that day, after? I think after?\u201d Jordan told a Spectrum News reporter. He also told Fox News he had a phone conversation with Trump on Jan. 6 but changed the subject when asked what was discussed.<\/p>\n<p>Now, he has admitted to Politico:\u00a0\u201cLook, I definitely spoke to the president that day<strong>.<\/strong> I know it was more than once. I just don\u2019t recall the times.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A source told Politico that Jordan and Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) both got on a phone call to Trump at one point while when they were hunkered down in a secret safe room during the Capitol attack. They pleaded with Trump to tell his supporters to \u201cstand down,\u201d Politico reported, citing the source, who declined to reveal how Trump responded.<\/p>\n<p>When asked if Gaetz joined him in a call to Trump that day, Jordan told Politico that he\u2019d \u201chave to think about it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Jordan later noted that he was \u201csure\u201d one of the Trump calls occurred in the safe room \u201cbecause we were in that room forever.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said he wouldn\u2019t detail what was discussed,\u00a0other than to claim that, like everyone else, he wanted the National Guard to get involved.<\/p>\n<p>Gaetz\u2019s office told Politico he would not discuss any phone conversations with Trump.<\/p>\n<p>House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) in June named five Republicans to sit on the Jan. 6 committee. But House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) rejected two of them \u2014 Jordan and Rep. Jim Banks of Indiana \u2014 suggesting they had made false statements regarding what occurred on Jan. 6, while also taking concerning actions that made them less-than-credible participants.<\/p>\n<p>Both men had voted to overturn the results of the presidential election. In Jordan\u2019s case, it would have been awkward for a committee member to also be called as a witness.<\/p>\n<p>McCarthy subsequently yanked all five of his picks, and Pelosi named Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyoming) and Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.). to serve on the investigation committee.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.huffpost.com\/entry\/jim-jordan-trump-phone-calls-house-select-committee-jan-6_n_612c1fa5e4b0231e369d397f\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rep.
