Johnson says he hasn’t done ‘deep dive’ into Biden impeachment inquiry but calls evidence ‘alarming’

Yeah.
They should, but they won't.

There's not time limit set on these investigations, and the Repubs believe yelling "Fire!" long enough will convince enough folks they can smell a little smoke just long enough for them to win one more election.

The thought they're digging a hole too deep to ever climb out of never occurs to them.
Except for the smart ones, and they're all jumping off the ship before it sinks.

Johnson just lost another one this week, so his reliable majority is down to only 3 now. It's no wonder to me that he's trying to talk out of both sides of his mouth at the same time.
He has to work with the Democrats to get anything the Repubs want, but at the same time, he doesn't want the humiliation of being forced out as Speaker either.

And if the Repubs have any more incumbents bail out now and resign, the Democrats will regain their House majority before this year's election.
A Democratic House could push through all the legislation the Repubs have blocked in the past 3 years with that majority. It would be hard work, but is do-able if any more resignations are immediate.

Why should they make everything they know public while they're still investigating? Is that normally how investigations are done?

You mean, like the Democrats have been doing for almost a decade in their zeal to "Get Trump by any means necessary!"?

The corrupt were never on the ship to begin with.

They want even this vote because they know they have zero chance. You can keep hoping and wishing if you like but this case has hit rock bottom.

"Sorry but the Jim Jordan and crew have nothing"

And you KNOW what they have and don't have?

How?

Who has given you all of their info?

You make a claim, it is up to YOU to back it up with the supporting data.

Your "opinion" does NOT count!

Have to agree they look weak see it on their faces.

In the real world,
Jordan was having a great time laughing at the whiny loser.
Comer was looking at the guy like, 'wtf have you been smoking... or snorting?' Moskowitz with his glassy bloodshot eyes, extremely excitable, twitching, bouncing all around in his chair, voice got all whiny...maybe Moskowitz was dipping into Joey's* WH stash?

Suddenly the left cares about "wasting taxpayer money".
