Jeffries slams weaponization committee in response to McCarthy tweet on Trump probe

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) took aim at the House weaponization subcommittee on Sunday, saying that he disagrees with Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s (R-Calif.) recent remarks about the New York grand jury investigation into former President Trump.
:snippity:
“I strongly disagree with that statement,” Jeffries said on MSNBC’s “Inside With Jen Psaki,” which aired its first episode Sunday. “And it’s not clear to me what committee the speaker may be referring to, perhaps the so-called weaponization committee, which is really more appropriately named, the Committee to Protect Insurrectionists.”
:snippity:
McCarthy confirmed at the GOP issues retreat in Orlando, Fla., on Sunday that he expects Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) to take action regarding Bragg’s probe, as head of the weaponization subcommittee.

Jeffries said Jordan’s subcommittee, which was formed when Republicans gained control of the House, was mostly fueling conspiracy theories.

“Instead of the House majority focusing on the economy, focusing on inflation, focusing on job creation, focusing on health care, they continue to peddle conspiracy theories led by this so-called weaponization committee and the oversight committee, as opposed to trying to find common ground with House Democrats to try to make life better for everyday Americans,” he said.
