Jim Jordan on media avoiding Hunter Biden in 2020: 'Only thing fake was the news'
Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio., questions why the media avoided the Hunter Biden allegations during the 2020 election.
Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said Monday on "The Faulkner Focus" it's clear the mainstream media, Big Tech and Democrats "colluded" to keep the Hunter Biden scandal out of the headlines before the 2020 presidential election.

The only thing fake back then was the news. So why all of a sudden are they coming clean? That's, I think, a key question that we need to get the answer to.
