Pelosi rejects Jordan and Banks from Select Committee for 1/6/2021

[DrLove]

Me too! I do not agree with her on much of anything, when it comes to her and especially her daddy's politics! Yuk!!

But, she is one tough lady, not a yellow belly coward, and has definitely put the constitution and our Nation, before her own career.... How can anyone, not admire her for that...?

Trumpettes no longer believe in the constitution.

 

[Care4all]

So why should that exclude them from being represented? I don't agree with either of those things they did, but if you want a real commission and not a partisan puppet show you need to have all viewpoints represented, even the more extreme.

They are represented....one of the three accepted was on the same page as the two rejected...who supported not certifying the election.

Jordan is a possible material witness.... He strategized with Trump ahead of 1/6, on the plans for 1/6. An investigator being a witness is not acceptable in any investigation.

And Banks went on right wing tv rounds after the announcement of him being a pick, but before Nancy approved, disparaging the investigation and telling the viewers his plans of sabotaging it with side shows.

Well duh Don't Taz ....it was a planned move buy McCarthy to have Nancy exercise her power to ban them, so McCarthy could have an excuse for pulling out of the investigation and then blame it on Pelosi. I predicted this a month ago.... It's all being laid out, just as they planned from the beginning.... From turning down the independent commission....

Don't be fooled in to thinking g McCarthy and repubs ever wanted or planned to, investigate, or do it honestly.

No republicans in the House leadership wants to find out the truth of the what, where, when, who and how of the 1/6 attack....

They voted against a non partisan commission out side of congress to investigate, they also voted down this house select committee investigation.

They do not want an investigation to uncover the truth...period.

This appointing of Jordan to the team, was just a way to pull out of the investigation they never wanted to be a part of in the first place....they knew Nancy had the power to reject the circus barkers, and would.

You don't know your side, very well, imho.

Of course she and she Ma. High and Mighty, a purely partisan move. Deal with it.

This from the gal who thinks nancy is "fair" and "objective". Good lord

 

[CowboyTed]

McCarthy pulls ALL Republicans from committee in response!
Coolio!

Excellent...

First call Trump to the testify... Since there will be no one to object... Lets just ask anything we want... We could have him there for days...

Trump will almost surely perjurer himself, so we would get a sequel to his congress... Trump would like a season two...

Then Barr, could be some good stuff...

Democrats could have some great fun then...

 

[Hutch Starskey]

No, we just have the other 8,700 violent city-wide BLM riots of 2020 wrecking 69 cities to get out of the way investigating first and how the democrats sponsored them.

 

[BlindBoo]

REALLY, Boo? You mean the Fed was supposed to go into blue cities and kick ass? The one time Trump actually sent a few federal officers to protect federal property last year, you people had a shit.

Trumpybear used his Bully Pulpit to aggravate the situations. Even Nixon tried to calm the Student protests and riots. He even went and met with some of them. An investigation into that could be welcomed next year........

Make Jordan a Witness...

Say Banks is obviously disparaging the investigating powers of congress which makes him unfit...

 

[Eric Arthur Blair]

Republicans want to sweep the 1/6 rightwing terrorist attack on America's democracy under the rug only because it's a political liability for them.

I welcome an honest legitimate investigation that explains why early warnings were ignored and
security was not increased as requested.

I also want to know the composition of the mob. The attack had all the earmarks of an Antifa beat down.

I'm certain however that Pelosi's politicized hand job will cover none of that.

No you don’t. Honest actors are needed. Not counter insurgents. Three of the five were accepted. McCarthy is free to send two more.

Funniest pic of Rudy maybe EVER. Look at those eyes - Downright Demonic!

There are so many demented pixelated portrayals of Squidhead.

You were supposed to come at twelve o'clock,
And you're just not worth the wait.

There are very few honest actors in Congress and I doubt there are enough to form a committee.

Choosing Jordan and Banks was a predicted move by McCarthy in this sleazy and slimy game of political chess. He KNEW they would be vetoed by Pelosi.... He counted on it, so he could pull his forces and create his own partisan dog and pony show.

I see that you paid attention to the talking points on 'Morning Joe' this A.M..
Hack.

Let's try this again..... PARTISANSHIP is practiced by all Politicians. Don't pretend she is as pure as you are, she isn't. Nancy is one of the worst ever.

I agree. McCarthy doesn’t have a very deep bench in that regard.

There's more than enough. They're just not Republican.

 

[playtime]

This is excellent news, looks like she's taking this thing seriously.

McCarthy has to replace. He has no choice if he wants his party involved in the investigation.

i hope she asks adam kinzinger & he accepts. that will be 2 (R) reps.

poor kevin - he had a sweet deal with full equal say but alas - donny ate his spine for lunch.

 

[toobfreak]

It ain't MY reasoning that's twisted pal ...

Yes, perhaps "convoluted inside-out pretzel logic" would be a more fitting term. Yes.
