If you're sick of these people using the levers of federal power to promote political conspiracy theories against nonpartisan institutions, vote for Democrats and show Republicans the door.
House Republicans have spent eight goddamn years abusing the institutional credibility and subpoena power of investigative committees to target political foes, promote conspiracy theories, and essentially produce campaign ads on the taxpayer's dime.

Enough.

Fucking ENOUGH.
I'm absolutely fed up with these stunts.

Charging a sitting attorney general with contempt of Congress for no reason whatsoever.

Holding 7 Benghazi investigations into a person who wasn't even in the chain of command in Benghazi.
Trying to impeach an IRS commissioner who wasn't even the commissioner during a "political targeting scandal" that the inspector general concluded did not even happen.

Oh, and don't forget threatening to investigate the government ethics officer for enforcing ethics rules.
And now they're trying to close an investigation into a legitimate national security attack aided and abetted by U.S. officials, while refusing to interview witnesses who have real information — and simultaneously starting a probe into supposed FBI misconduct that never happened.
I've absolutely had it with every single Republican in charge of investigative committees.

These people have completely bastardized any legitimate use of congressional committees. On that basis ALONE, they deserve to be fired from the House yesterday.
