What’s there to investigate? You already impeached Trump for it and spoke the last 4 months as if everything is figured out.

@ChrisRBarron once again, it’s a feature; not a bug. (Feature being that useful, self-stabbing idiots are Republicans).
The Ranking Republican on the Homeland Security committee in Congress (@RepJohnKatko) voted to impeach Trump for 1/6/21.

He is establishing a bipartisan commission that will look as to what led to the 1/6/21 which Katko already thinks Trump caused it so Y need a commission?
The latest is yet another example of my point that idiots/losers are Republicans.

The only PR outcome of a 1/6/21 commission will be to blame Trump so why agree? The leading Republican to organize this commision voted to impeach Trump for 1/6/21 so you know where this is going.
The move to oust @Liz_Cheney from leadership won’t fix the issue that self-defeating losers are Republicans:

GOP agrees to a commission that will again blame Trump for 1/6 which will put GOP on the defensive again.

WORSE: The GOPer to form this VOTED TO IMPEACH TRUMP FOR 1/6.
Stated objective of the Commission is to investigate the circumstances of 1/6 “as well as contributing factors that may have provoked” it.

A House that blamed Trump for provoked it will investigate who provoked it with the help of a GOPer who already impeached Trump for it. Image
A partially functioning republican party leadership would demand that the commission should investigate political unrest as a whole not just 1/6/21 which would include dozens of deaths last year during BLM/ANTIFA riots. But pushing that is too a heavy lift for chronic pushovers.
It appears that @GOPLeader and @SteveScalise are pushing back against the 1/6/21 commission whose chief states objective is to see what provoked it which means 5 months of Trump bashing. Crazier is that @RepJohnKatko (who voted to impeach Trump) was the liaison on this.
“Given the Speaker’s shortsighted scope that does not examine interrelated forms of political violence in America, I cannot support this legislation,” @GOPLeader @kevinomccarthy.

4 days ago I tweeted that the GOP should ask for a look at overall political violence.
The @SenateGOP will likely give @SenateDems the needed votes to create a Blame Trump Commission.

9 months after the commission concludes its blames Trump work, the @EWErickson class of the GOP will demand that Trump Voters come out for the @SenateGOP in the Midterms.
Many Senate GOPs already blamed Trump for 1/6/21 and even voted to impeach him for it. What is the practical or political value of a Blame Trump Commission?

If you operate with the understanding that idiotic, Stockholm Syndrome sufferers are Republicans, it makes sense. Sad.

Can a POTUS retroactively revoke his political opponent's presidential privileges which paves the way for a raid on and prosecution of his opponent who is now seeking immunity from this POTUS?

The answer is yes. Biden did just that.
A Biden Judge asked the attorney of Biden's Political Opponet if a POTUS has the authority to take out his political opponent, and if the answer is no then it implies that Biden('s DOJ) can continue to try to take out his political opponent...

1984 wasn't this convoluted.
The Biden DOJ asked Trump for docs.

Trump claimed executive privilege (EP).

DOJ went to the WH for help.

Biden Deputized the National Archivist to revoke Trump's EP.

She did.

DOJ affidavit mentions violations of Archive laws (created by action above) as a reason to raid! 🚨 Image

Via @ChuckGrassley: "I have no evidence [on Biden wrongdoing]. the fact haven't taken me to that point where I can say the president is guilty of anything."

A - There is more evidence than in many white collar cases.

B- Dems didn't speak this way about no-evidence of collusion.
For years, @ASavageNation claimed that "liberalism is a mental disorder," but it is increasingly clear that Republicanism is a symptom/sign of mental issues.

Idiots are Republicans; Rollover Suckers are Conservatives - for the most part; especially those in DC.
@ASavageNation Conspirators texting about the involvement of a third person has been used in cases. 10% for "the big guy"was mentioned.

He got onto calls/had meetings with vendors which is also used in cases.

He got 10% of a $400K pay through a brother middle man who got $10K.

🧵 🧵🧵Notice the pattern of contradictory in many claims by the anti-Israel and anti-Jew crowd; generally the same people:

- Israel deserved everything that happened on 10/7 but not everything that happened as seen on video actually happened because those are fake videos...
- Israel is keeping people locked into Gaza and is displacing them out of Gaza...

- For weeks Israel is trying to enter #AlShifa that Israel occupies/controls since '67; bombed it indiscriminately recently, and there R no combatants there stopping Israel from just walking in...
- There are no tunnels under #AlShifa, and the tunnels were created by Israel...

- Why is Israel taking out Hamas; a group that Israel created which has no support among Gazans...?

- Oppression leads to 10/7 type resistance by Gazans that oppressed Gazans don't even support...

- Within a year of the 1995 shutdowns, the @HouseGOP Majority was reelected for the first time since the 1920's; Senate GOP picked up two seats.

- A year after the 2013 shutdowns, the GOP picked up 13 seats in the House; won control of the Senate.

Stop buying WSJ/NRO defeatism!
In 2016, Trump ran on prosecuting HRC; he won.

House Dems impeached Trump and won the WH/Senate within the year.

Biden raided Trump in August 2022 and softened Dem losses by November.

Shoring up your own side by being bold works better than trying to win "independents."
- The @HouseGOP opened an impeachment inquiry in Oct '98.

Despite a wave of 54 seats in 1994 which should have receded, the GOP ended the 1998 midterms with only 7 seats less than 1994.

In the Senate, the GOP held steady despite a combined NET GAIN of TEN seats in '94 - '96.
