Rep. Stacey Plaskett and Jim Jordan went at it during his farce of a hearing on the so-called "weaponization" of government, but you wouldn't know that if you were just watching Fox "news."
As Raw Story reported, Plaskett and Jordan had a testy exchange as she attempted to give her opening statement this morning:
Rep. Stacey Plaskett (D-VI) clashed with Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) on Thursday after she accused Republicans of using a "playbook" that includes "false narratives" about the 2020 election and the Capitol attack on Jan. 6, 2021.
At a House Oversight hearing on government "weaponization," Plaskett blasted Jordan for only providing access to documentation minutes before the event. She compared the tactics to House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's (R-CA) decision to give Fox News host Tucker Carlson thousands of hours of video from Jan. 6.
"This is unacceptable," she explained. "I'm ready for it. I don't know if a lot of other people are, but just as it was unacceptable for Kevin McCarthy to provide 41,000 hours of sensitive security footage to a biased talking head in an effort to rewrite what happened on January 6th."
"This is a new Republican playbook, apparently. Risk American safety and security to score political points," Plaskett insisted.
Here's more on the exchanges between the two of them during the hearing that Fox really didn't want their viewers to watch from Aaron Rupar on Twitter:
