Sean Hannity email to Jim Jordan opponents raises questions

Sean Hannity's Fox News show is reportedly involving itself in trying to get Republicans to elect a new House speaker, including by asking moderate GOP lawmakers why they aren't supporting Ohio congressman Jim Jordan for the role.

Axios reporter Juliegrace Brufke revealed an email from a member of Hannity's production team named "Stephanie" sent to some House Republicans seeking a response as to why they aren't backing Jordan for House speaker. Jordan was elected by the GOP as its candidate to replace rep. Kevin McCarthy for the position on Friday, with previously elected candidate House Majority Speaker Steve Scalise dropping out of the race as it became clear he wouldn't get enough votes on the House floor.
