Former Watergate prosecutor torches Jim Jordan's whistleblowers: "Nutcases"

A former Watergate prosecutor blasted three FBI whistleblowers Jim Jordan brought before his government "weaponization" subcommittee for spouting biases and baseless conspiracy theories.

Jordan, the Republican chairman of the House Judiciary Committee's select subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, said he has "dozens of whistleblowers" who will testify to the "political nature" of the FBI and the Justice Department (DOJ).

A new report from the Democrats minority on the committee, however, discredits three of Jordan's key "whistleblowers," accusing them of pushing conspiracy theories, failing to provide any actual evidence of FBI or DOJ wrongdoing, and having ties to former Trump administration officials. The report was written by ranking members Jerrold Nadler of New York and Stacey Plaskett, the delegate from the U.S. Virgin Islands.
