Fox News crushes Jim Jordan's rant on Comey: 'Everything you listed has not been charged'

Fox News host Bill Hemmer stopped Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) cold after the lawmaker smeared former FBI Director James Comey by listing alleged crimes that he had not been charged with.

A day after the former FBI director was charged with threatening President Donald Trump's life with a photo of seashells, Jordan spoke to Hemmer about the case.

"So this is what he posted on Instagram, then took it down: 8647, which we all know, 86 is an old phrase for like, get rid of someone," Hemmer explained. "Is this case stronger than the one 12 months ago?"

"Well, it's a crime to threaten the president, 18 USC section 871, so you can't do that," Jordan replied. "And I think it's important to remember, this is Jim Comey who started it all. This 10-year attack on the President of the United States, on President Trump, started with Comey and the — remember, he took the dossier that he knew was garbage."

"He's the guy who took it to the secret court to get the warrant to go spy on President Trump's campaign," he continued. "He's the guy who leaked the memos. He's the guy who leaked classified information through his buddy, Daniel Richman, to the press. So this is that guy."

Hemmer interrupted to note that Comey had not been found guilty of any of Jordan's claims.

"Everything you listed, he's not being charged in this case on that," the Fox News host said.

"I understand that!" Jordan snapped.
