Rep. Jim Jordan Confirms Run for Speaker of the House
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) is running for speaker of the House, he confirmed to Breitbart News. The Chairman of the House Judiciary and Weaponization Committees rose to prominence as a fierce opponent of President Barack Obama and Republican Speakers John Boehner (R-OH) and Paul Ryan (R-WI). Jordan transitioned from Rep. Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) primary irritant to one of his firmest allies, leading to his ascension atop the Judiciary Committee.
