Trump and Jordan have been close allies since 2016, with the Ohio lawmaker defending Trump throughout the ‘Russiagate’ investigation and two Democrat-led impeachment inquiries. As chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Jordan is currently leading the GOP’s investigation into the Biden family’s allegedly corrupt foreign dealings.
Jordan is a founding member of the House Freedom Caucus, a group of hardline conservatives that opposed McCarthy’s speakership earlier this year and favors reduced government spending, tougher border security, and a dramatic reduction or cutoff of aid to Ukraine. Gaetz is one of the most prominent members of the group, and endorsed Jordan for the position of speaker last year.
The speaker wields significant influence in the US political system, determining which bills come up for votes and overseeing committee assignments.
With McCarthy out of the job, the Biden administration and officials in Kiev have expressed concern that the flow of weapons and cash to Ukraine could dry up. Jordan told CNN on Wednesday that he is “against” bringing another aid package for Ukraine to a vote, adding that “the most pressing issue on Americans’ minds is not Ukraine; it is the border situation and crime on the streets.”
#VoteJordanShould the party be unable to decide on a replacement for McCarthy, Trump told Fox News on Thursday that he would be willing to step in and fill the role on a temporary basis.
DeSantis appoints the Florida Public Service Commission, and he approves the board. Who donated $9.5 million to the DeSantis campaign? Florida Power & Light. The governor is responsible for their jobs and budget. The originally approved money grab cost Floridians $692 million last January, followed by an additional $560 million after the most recent hike. People here will tell you that their energy bills have doubled, if not more. FPL is one of many energy companies in the state that are taking advantage of the people.
