Representative Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), who was once tapped as a possibility to serve on the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack, was one of the Congress members who texted former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows the day before the insurrection, it was revealed on Wednesday.

Originally attributed by the January 6 committee only to an unnamed "lawmaker," Jordan's office confirmed in a statement that he had sent at least one text to Meadows, the former top aide to ex-President Donald Trump who was charged with obstruction of Congress on Tuesday.

The text was not an original composition by Jordan, according to the statement, but was a forwarded message containing a legal argument from former Pentagon Inspector General Joseph Schmitz.
