McCarthy said ""Unless Speaker Pelosi reverses course and seats all five Republican nominees, Republicans will not be party to their sham process and will instead pursue our own investigation of the facts.

This represents an egregious abuse of power. Denying the voices of members who have served in the military and law enforcement, as well as leaders of standing committees, has made it undeniable that this panel has lost all legitimacy and credibility and shows the Speaker is more interested in playing politics than seeking the truth."

Only a pea-brained partisan liberal hack would believe a word that came out of this obvious witch hunt, which is only meant to distract from the disastrous Biden presidency that is on its way down the drain.
None of those people are giving testimony as witnesses. This is not some wild tale they are creating like Newsmax or OAN. This is the testimony of those who were either directly or tangentially involved in 1/6 telling what they know and what they saw and heard.

McCarthy hand picked his nominees to sabotage the Committee out of the gate. He wanted Jordan and Banks on the Committee to report back every day on what was being learned, so he and the House republicans could put together a defense in real time. Pelosi did her job well.

Exactly, I’ve seen the videos and the behavior of the crowd.

Republican/Democrat. I don’t care. It was the concept of peaceful transition coming under fire, basically one of the most important American “inventions” and you have senators who I’ve heard literally say the words “it was just like any other day at the capitol like a tourist would see”. When you have hardline people like that, it’s a waste of time.

My grooming I can do something about. My corrupt installed government not so much.
Trying to install a man who clearly lost an election isn`t anti-American?

You mean the sort where they point out that they have massive amounts of evidence? LOL. Honestly the fact that they are saying they have far more then folks realize is a shocker. Because theres a ton of existing evidence, they hardly need more.

Is it a coup to fabricate collusion evidence and then push it forward for years in a manner that undermines a sitting US president?

Because heres one saying that thats not true:

Oh look, another Trump gotcha thread from a Leftist that won’t age well. How many of these just from this OP alone have we gotten?

Oh by the way, politico is a Leftist site. Might as well get your Trump news from Don Lemon or the hags on the View.

Awww when did I hurt you? Seriously, whats the "gotcha" here? Its about the secret service, and that they are testifying. THATS IT. Period. And I was surprised because I-like others-thought they were immune.

Lol. A few thousand unarmed protesters that turned rioters weren’t installing anyone. Capitol police could’ve mowed every one of them down if they wanted.
