Jim Jordan’s government “weaponization” crusade got off to a rocky start, and somehow the far-right congressman’s troubles only seem to be getting worse. (via MaddowBlog)
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has revoked the security clearances of three agents who either took part in the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, or later expressed views about it that placed into question their “allegiance to the United States,” the bureau said on Wednesday in a letter to congressional investigators.
Allen and Friend are two of the agents whose security clearances were revoked in response to alleged misconduct. According to the Times’ account, which has not been independently verified by MSNBC or NBC News, they’ve also been suspended by the bureau as the FBI reviews their cases. As for Jordan’s witnesses, Allen was found to have had “expressed sympathy for persons or organizations that advocate, threaten or use force or violence,” promoted conspiracy theories about the Jan. 6 violence, and misled a colleague about a Jan. 6 suspect.
