Jim Jordan has been criticized over reports the Ohio congressman will head attempts by the GOP to investigate and subpoena federal agencies like the FBI.
Laurence Tribe, professor emeritus of constitutional law at Harvard University, was reacting to the claims made by The New York Times that House Republicans plan to set up a new special subcommittee to probe what they call the "weaponization" of the federal government by the Biden administration.
Jordan, who is expected to become chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, is set to oversee the panel.

I do believe federal agencies come under congressional over site. I d believe it is unconstitutional for the FBI to attempt to subvert peoples rights.
