In a recent interview, House Judiciary Committee Chairman, Jim Jordan, provided updates on the investigation into the involvement of James Biden, brother of President-elect Joe Biden, in various business dealings. Jordan stated that the committee's lawyers have been in contact with legal counsels for individuals such as Jim Biden, Rob Walker, Schwerin, Tony Bobulinski, and Kevin Morris, and they anticipate having them appear for depositions in January.
Jordan highlighted the connection between James Biden and the Ukrainian energy company Burisma, emphasizing four key facts. Firstly, Hunter Biden, Joe Biden's son, was appointed to the board of Burisma, even though he lacked the qualifications. Secondly, executives at Burisma requested Hunter Biden's assistance in influencing Washington, D.C. to alleviate pressure from a prosecutor. Jordan noted that Hunter Biden called his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, in response to this request. Thirdly, Joe Biden traveled to Ukraine and conditioned the release of American taxpayer dollars on the firing of the prosecutor who was investigating Burisma. Lastly, Jordan pointed out attempts to sweep the issue under the rug by allowing the statute of limitations to lapse for the years when the bulk of money flowed from Burisma to the Biden family.
Moving on to a different topic, Jordan discussed the recent decision by the Colorado Supreme Court to exclude President Trump from the primary ballot. He expressed confidence that the Supreme Court would take up the case, as he believed the reasoning behind keeping Trump off the ballot was baseless. Jordan argued that the application of the 14th Amendment in this case was incorrect since it did not pertain to the office of the president.
Additionally, Jordan voiced concerns about the intensifying actions being taken by the left to prevent Trump from assuming the presidency. He listed a series of events, including the surveillance of Trump's campaign, the Mueller investigation, impeachment, home raids, and multiple indictments, suggesting a relentless effort to undermine Trump's political career. Jordan criticized these actions as contrary to the principles of democracy.

With regards to the impact of the Colorado Supreme Court's decision, Jordan suggested that it might backfire on Democrats by garnering sympathy and support for President Trump, not only in Colorado but across the country. He pointed out that recent polls indicated Trump's lead in various surveys.
As the year comes to a close, the ongoing investigations and legal battles highlighted by Jordan set the stage for significant developments in the coming months.
