Jim Jordan got his butt handed to him by Democratic Representative Stacey Plasket during a hearing this week. Plasket called out Jordan, and many other Republican lawmakers, for making a mockery of the hearing process and for blindly following Donald Trump's orders to pretend that the government is being weaponized against them - orders that Republicans like Jordan are all too eager to follow.
Also, during an interview this week with conservative talker Hugh Hewitt, Donald Trump went on a tirade against President Biden. There's nothing unusual about that, but it became weird when the former president got distracted in the middle of his rant and then went on a completely new rant about water in California. It actually got so bad that Hewitt had to cut off Trump because he was no longer making any sense, and it appeared that Hewitt was starting to get concerned.
And RNC co-chair Lara Trump didn't waste any time running interference for her father-in-law after he accepted President Biden's invitation to debates in June and September. Lara went whining to Sean Hannity at Fox about how these debates - that were only announced hours earlier - are somehow already rigged against Donald Trump. Lara and her allies are already trying to lower expectations because Trump is so bad on the debate stage, and just like with the election, they are claiming everything is rigged against him in advance to soften the blow when he loses.
Finally, former Trump lawyer Tim Parlatore, who dumped the former president last year, said during an interview this week that the parade of weirdos coming through the courtroom to support Donald Trump aren't helping him with the judge or jury. In fact, they are causing a lot of damage that could swing this case in the prosecution's favor. Trump's friends are going out and violating the gag order for him to the point where the judge is reportedly considering sanctioning the lawmakers and other officials that keep showing up.
