He wasn’t out to hold the entire investigation in a single hearing. It’s clear from the aftermath that just laying out the groundwork of where they plan to start digging was enough to terrify the left.
Let the hearings begin
On Thursday, February 9, House conservatives rounded up their brand new Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government for the very first of their controversial oversight hearings. To get the ball rolling, they invited two of their whistleblowers in to take the witness stand.
Ahead of the big event, Jordan told reporters, “we have a government that now, I believe, is targeting the very people it is supposed to serve.” He’s out to do something about it. He also chairs the House Judiciary Committee.

Former agent Nicole Parker took the stand to tell the American public, “I am not here today to show favor to any political party — I am here to stand for the truth based on my experience at the FBI.” She then explained how “over the course of my 12-plus years of service, the FBI’s trajectory transformed. Every day, I woke up and embraced being an FBI Special Agent. Until things changed.”
On paper, she testified at the first of many hearings to come, “the bureau’s mission remained the same, but its priorities and governing principles shifted dramatically. The FBI became politically weaponized, starting from the top in Washington and trickling down to the field offices.”
To her, “it felt as if there became two FBIs.” They don’t have the same caliber of agents these days, either. “There has also been a shift in recruiting practices – a lowering of the eligibility requirements – which is negatively impacting the agency’s performance.” That all “adds up to a loss of trust in the FBI by many Americans and low morale among many FBI employees.” That’s exactly the reason we’re having these hearings.
The way she expressed it, “for many, becoming a Special Agent was their calling in life, but now, it is merely a dangerous, high-risk job with minimal contentment. For me, distancing myself from egregious mistakes, immoral behavior, politically charged actions taken by a small but destructive few FBI employees became exhausting.” Agent Parker “no longer felt that she was the type of agent the FBI valued.”

The FBI is ‘perverted’
Another star at the hearings was Thomas Baker. He apparently was not impressed with Grand Inquisitor Robert Mueller and the whole Trump-Russia collusion witch hunt. The 33-year veteran testified that “the American public losing faith in the FBI breaks my heart.” He’s convinced that “the culture shift” within the bureau was “deliberate.” Not only that, it was “put in place by former FBI Director Robert Mueller.”
Donald Trump was the provocation causing the FBI director to “set out deliberately to change the culture of the FBI from a law enforcement agency to an intelligence-driven agency.” The FBI is basically “perverted,” Baker declares. “By urging Twitter to censor speech, which it could not itself do, was engaging in a perversion – a perversion of the First Amendment. For most of FBI history, agents were trained as part of the FBI’s mission was to be a guarantor of the Bill of Rights. That has been turned on its head.”
Along for the ride at the first of the weaponization hearings were star conservative politicians including Senators Ron Johnson and Charles Grassley. Democrat Jamie Raskin and former Democrat Tulsi Gabbard also appeared as witnesses. As expected, Raskin testified that the panel itself is just a bunch of Republican hooey and they should be investigating Donald Trump instead.

Gabbard lashed out at the blatant censorship. “We cannot be so short-sighted to be thinking that silencing speech that we don’t like today will not result in our own voices being silenced tomorrow.”
When Senator Grassley took the stand, he told everyone that there will be a bunch more hearings like this one over at his committee too. He’s outraged with the “triad of disinformation and outright falsehoods.” He explained that “It’s clear to me that the Justice Department and the FBI are suffering from a political infection that, if it’s not defeated, will cause the American people no longer to trust these storied institutions.” It’s a little late for that, senator.
Ron Johnson is infuriated how the left have “infiltrated” major U.S. institutions. It’s not good for them to have so much financial and social influence. “I think my main point is that the left has pretty well infiltrated the major institutions in this country, starting with our university system, and that just has metastasized out and so now they control the narrative and they’re using their control, that narrative in I think very destructive ways.” That’s a national security risk, too. Johnson points out, “it is important to recognize corrupt individuals within federal agencies that I am talking about are not acting alone. They operate as vital partners of the left-wing political movement and includes most members of the mainstream media, Big Tech, social media giants, global institutions and foundations, Democrat Party operatives and elected officials. As the Twitter Files reveal, these actors worked in concert to defeat their political opponents and promote left-wing ideology and government control over our lives.” Now, you see why Democrats are panicking so hard.
