I watch and monitor lots of C-SPAN, and I don’t recall them overlaying very many or frankly any area hearings when Democrats had been within the majority.
Republicans can attempt to cancel their subscriptions to C-SPAN, however C-SPAN shouldn’t be a subscription service. C-SPAN is a free channel that may be a non-public non-profit that’s funded by cable and satellite tv for pc suppliers. C-SPAN does present public affairs programming exterior of Washington, D.C., however Jordan is attempting to make it look like the community covers lots of congressional area hearings, and that’s not true.
Rep. Jordan and the Home Republicans are indignant as a result of their sham listening to that’s supposed to smear Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg and intrude within the prison case towards Donald Trump shouldn’t be poised to generate a lot mainstream media consideration.
If C-SPAN is passing that may be a dangerous signal of Jordan’s abuse of energy to assist Donald Trump.
