Jordan had repeatedly expressed his frustrations with his Democratic counterparts for allowing Cohen to testify despite being sentenced to prison for lying to Congress in addition to other crimes. The former Trump lawyer is set to go to jail in May.

The brief moment sparked various reactions on Twitter, including from former ESPN personality Jemele Hill, who said, “Stacey Plaskett is all of us looking at Jim Jordan, the last person who should address anyone’s character.”
