    Not to worry, Lisa. YOUR GUYS will continue to investigate that bejabbers out of Hunter Biden in hopes of removing him from all the government offices he holds.

    .

    Of course, none of them will make any effort to remove Bob Menendez or George Santos (or whatever his name is) from office. They admire corruption.

    If you had an uncompromised Dept of Justice all the election deniers and Trump enablers would have been rounded up and charged on Jan 7. The current situation would not have happened and you might have had a functioning government.

    Anyone not disgusted by all levels of government must be a Democrat suffering from cognitive dissonance.

    Why is the far right wing election denier dressed differently than his supporters?

    Republicans had an opportunity to elect an experienced member of Congress, one of whom actually spoke the truth about the election. But instead, they voted in an election-denying, LGBTQ-hating child from Louisiana. Caving to the magas once again. The House hasn’t had a less experienced Speaker in over a century.

    The country is watching. I wouldn’t bet the Republicans hold the house after the 2024 election.

    An election denier who worked to try and overturn the 2020 election. Imagine next year when Biden or maybe another democrat wins and he refuses as House Speaker to certify the election

    Dear Jewish Friends, in case you missed it, here are the 9 DEMOCRATS that voted against aid to Israel (which, as was promised by our new Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, the first legislation he brought to the floor). Some folks have your back, while others DO NOT. Tlaib, Mi., Bush, Mo., Bowman, N.Y., Carson, In. Green, Tx., Lee, Pa., A.O.C., N.Y., Omar, Mn., Ramirez, Il. I’m sure you’ll remember this next Nov.

    He will remain speaker until the very first time a bipartisan deal is reached where the Ultra MAGA don’t get everything they want.

    Then one single wackadoodle will call for a vote to vacate, and the Democrats will aid in the removal of this RWNJ just like they did with the last one.

    If he actually believes that the 2020 election was “stolen”, then he is (necessarily) either an imbecile or a lunatic. If he says it without believing it, he is dishonest. People that blatantly dishonest in public are almost a sure bet to be dishonest in private. It wouldn’t surprise me to see Johnson eventually on trial for assorted crimes.

    Not only is Johnson an ‘Election Denier,’ he may be far too busy tabulating how many of his constituents have married their pet animals { which he “predicted” now that same-sex marriages are still legal in U.S. } to be an effective Speaker!

    Constitutional, inalienable rights, remember those? Hopeful that Speaker Johnson will adhere, undoubtedly more than any dim speaker would. Dims would like nothing better than violational, malleable to the woke cause of the day rights.

    A new report about IRS home visits has just been released by the House Weaponization of Government Committee, chaired by Ohio congressman Jim Jordan. It outlines disturbing issues, including confirmation that IRS agents making home visits may come without warning, using aliases, and without informing local enforcement agencies of their presence. One of the cases outlined is my own. My home was visited by the IRS while I was testifying before Jordan’s Committee about the Twitter Files on March 9th. Sincere thanks are due to Chairman Jordan, whose staff not only demanded and got answers in my case, but achieved a concrete policy change, as IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel announced in July new procedures that would “end most” home visits.

    Anticipating criticism for expressing public thanks to a Republican congressman, I’d like to ask Democratic Party partisans: to which elected Democrat should I have appealed for help in this matter? The one who called me a “so-called journalist” on the House floor? The one who told me to take off my “tinfoil hat” and put greater trust in intelligence services? The ones in leadership who threatened me with jail time? I gave votes to the party for thirty years. Which elected Democrat would have performed basic constituent services in my case? Feel free to raise a hand.

    If silence is the answer, why should I ever vote for a Democrat again?-Matt Taibbi
