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

[bripat9643]

The purpose of the group is to investigate January 6th.

It's just like the 9-11 commission, but covering a different day.

Jim Jordan would want to investigate WMD in Iraq.

Trump supporters didn't kill anyone and the aren't foreign terrorists, you fucking moron.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

Yea… that shit in the punch bowl will be counter arguments that Democrats can’t handle. Pelosi looks weak and childish banning Jordan.

There are no counter arguments to truth and facts. Serious people understand this.

then why the need for Democrats to cherry pick Republicans to be part of the committee? That degrades the investigation,

I’m sure you consider yourself and your people serious.

True, so why do you bother arguing against them?

True, so why do you bother arguing against them?

So they can put on a show and extend TDS. Their House took a hit in the 2020 Elections and they need something to hold on to it in ‘22. Bashing Trump is the best they have.

Nobody will play ball with these kangaroo court subpoenas.

The court of public opinion is the kangaroo court moroonie, you see it everyday when you turn on the opinion as news shows. Congressional subpoena's will be upheld by the courts.

Pisslosi was going to refuse ANYBODY McCarthy nominated because she is afraid

She only has that authority in the House Select Committee.

What is the validation you have that Jordan and others were not planning to tell the truth? That’s your opinion. Given that the Capitol Police and Security of the Capitol stops with Pelosi. I could say the same thing you said about Jordan. In either case, they are both opinions. Not fact.

Jordan has lied repeated on the floor of the House. No reason to believe he will stop perpetuating the false narratives.

As for your claim blaming Speaker of House for the MAGAMOB breach:

"Capitol Police are responsible for security on the grounds of the Capitol and protecting Congress, along with the House and Senate sergeants-at-arms.

“No one person oversees USCP -- the oversight apparatus includes representation from the Architect of the Capitol, the House and Senate Sergeants at Arms, as well as committees from both Houses of Congress,” Bee Barnett, director of communications and programs for the U.S. Capitol Historical Society, said in an email.

While the Capitol Police budget is approved by both chambers of Congress, Pelosi does not control day-to-day operations or officer assignments.

Bullshit. To say Jim Jordan has lied on the floor of the House…. Who hasn’t? Democrat or Republican. On the Pelosi January 6 Commission, the days leading up to the planned protest, everyone from the Media to the DC Mayor to DC Police were telling people to stay out of DC due to potential unrest. If you are Speaker of the House, why didn’t you stand up and demand extra protection? Hell, ask the same question of Mitch McConnell who was Senate Majority Leader and Mike Pence who was President of The Senate.

Any cherry picking by Pelosi and others on who gets to sit and who doesn’t after months of whining and crying that Republicans did not want to participate only further confirms why Republicans were right to decline this exercise in the first place…. It’s purely political on the part of Pelosi and the Democrats.

Is this the same "whistleblower" who refused to testify before Congress at Trump's impeachment trial? We're supposed to believe his lawyer?

Sorry, turd. no banana.

Haha of course they are all politicians but Jordan has lied vociferously about the results of the 2020 election and about the events on 1-6.

Since the Neo-GOP Senate has rejected the Bipartisan Commission legislation which would have set up an independent Commission, they have no cause to complain about the rules the speaker sets up for the House Select Committee.

Name proven lies tied to Jim Jordan. HINT: don’t try and site an opinion of Jordan as a lie. Again, Pelosi can cherry pick and put all of her rules she wants…. The more she does it, the less credible the commission.

It's not a commission. TheNeo-GOP voted that idea down already. That why the House is having to investigate it rather that an independent commission.

That's your opinion, not a lie, you fucking douchebag.

The funny thing about all this is that McCarthy turned down a bipartiasan commission. No doubt at Trump's behest because Trump really doesn't want to revisit his role. But that was Kevin's chance to set the ground rules and define what was investigated.

But then, Pelosi was pretty much just doing a show trial. We have a long history of show trials ... going back at least as far as TR when he was the NYC police commissioner. BOTH parties ended up hating him. But generally they don't accomplish much. McCarthy ruined lives. With Nixon we found out not only was he lying (we all knew that) but he tape recoreded himself doing it! The gop tried that with Hillary's emails, but what did her in wasn't the show trial but Comey grandstanding about some old emails he claimed were new.

Kevin failed aGAIN at trying to derail that. And he has no power to hold gop only hearings. I don't hold out much hope, but the dems could actually call witnesses to find out if any gopers had foreknowledge and helped the attack, why the capital police didn't realize that these assholes really did plan to attach congress, and why was the natl guard so late. I'm not holding out hope, and I really don't care.

But Keven is left trying to appease at most 30% who don't think Trump's up to his ass in this. And that is not where the gop really needed to be.

Banks and Jordan rejected.....by Pelosi.... Will McCarthy replace them or kill participation?

Of course Pelosi doesn't want Jordan. He's the most articulate representative in Congress
