NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: During the Thursday night episode of 'Hannity,' appearances were made by House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan, House Oversight Chair James Comer, and House Ways and Means Chair Jason Smith. They shared their responses to the latest developments in the Hunter Biden controversy.

The three committee chairs took turns expressing their views on the Bidens.

Following this news, Fox News anchor Sean Hannity took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share his conversation with his followers.

Apparently, the internet did not respond well to Jordan’s brutal remarks on Hunter as several called him out as a “lame loser.”

Jim Jordan unfolds Hunter Biden’s ‘scandal’

Fox News host Sean Hannity took to X and wrote, “'YOU CALL IT BRIBERY!': Chair Jordan Unloads on Hunter Biden on Hannity [WATCH].”



 

He posted another tweet that read, “@Jim_Jordan - This is the heart of the Hunter Biden scandal.”



 

Hannity asked Jim Jordan about his letter to Christopher Wray to which the chairman said, “There is an underlying 1023 form that was earlier back in 2017, that became the basis for Scott Brady, US Attorney asking to talk to the confidential human source that produced the 1023 form or we asked Christopher Wray to give us that form.”

“But when you step back and look at this, the big takeaway wasn’t the chaos in the committed yesterday or the fact that Kevin Morris who is sitting there purchased $875,000 of Hunter Biden’s art and it wasn’t what happened in LA with Hunter Biden pleading not guilty to tax charges.”

He continued, “The big takeaway is what David Weiss didn’t charge Hunter Biden with. He didn’t charge him with those tax years, 2014 and 2015 when he got the income from Burisma.”

“He left the statute of limitations expire because it’s one thing to have a gun charge in Delaware Park that doesn’t get you to the White House, but the Burisma tax years do.”

Jordan further explained, “That’s within the 1023 form. That’s why we want the earlier one to pass the FBI to produce it.”

Hannity again questioned Jordan, “If a Vice President leverages a billion dollars to get a prosecutor fired after five days having a phone call with Burisma executives and his son and his son gets paid millions for doing nothing with no experience at a time when he’s a drug addict — what do you call that?”

Jordan replied, “You call it bribery. What you just described is the facts and circumstances around when Joe Biden went to Ukraine and conditioned the release of American taxpayer aid to Ukraine on the firing of the prosecutor who was pressuring Burisma.”

He continued, “All that is corroborated by the confidential human source. They told the FBI that the head of Burisma said, ‘We hired Hunter Biden to protect us through his dad.' That’s the prosecutor who they got fired, the conditional release of money on firing this prosecutor whose name is Victor Shokin.”

“He mentioned eight times in the 1023 form. We are asking for the earlier 1023 form so we can put that information together with this as well. That’s the heart of this matter,” Jordan added.



 

Internet calls Jim Jordan ‘lame loser’

After Jim Jordan blasted Hunter Biden, many people on the internet slammed the chairperson.

One person wrote, “The guy’s an absolute joke. Try harder,” and another said, “What a hypocritical lame loser.”



 



 

An X user slammed Jordan saying, “Jordan is Nothing but a little pathetic Trump Lapdog,” and another wrote, “@Jim_Jordan talking about anyone refusing to comply with a subpoena is laughable. Gymmy and Gomer. What a pathetic pair!”



 



 

One more person mocked Jordan, “@Jim_Jordan has no integrity or credibility answer your subpoena,” and another blasted, “Quit grandstanding and get to work!”
