THE OVERSIGHT WARS

The legislative branch cannot legislate; that's it's raison d'être

Instead, House Democrats are encroaching on executive and judiciary powers by launching investigations under the pretext of "oversight"

So far, the @SenateGOP has been AWOL

@SenateGOP Bill Barr characterized this as a war on the executive branch; he's right.

Republicans cannot unilaterally disarm, nor can they count on the Judiciary to step in

They, too, must wield their oversight powers aggressively

The subpoenas must fly

@SenateGOP House Democrats must be made to feel the pain of "oversight"

It's time to provide oversight of FOIA compliance, and investigate, thoroughly, Hillary Clinton's private email server

By subpoena'ing her public testimony

@SenateGOP It's time for the @SenateGOP also to get to the bottom of the Burisma affair, and what it says about the need for new laws about foreign corruption

Proper oversight demands that Hunter Biden and Joe Biden be subpeona'd for public testimony

@SenateGOP The oversight wars have begun

Republicans must demonstrate our willingness to fight if we want to see them end
