Pelosi assures January 6 select committee will 'seek the truth''I did not accept two of the five people appointed. They have made statements and taken action that I think would impact the integrity of the committee,' Speaker Pelosi says on rejecting Congressmen Jordan and Banks for the Jan. 6 Select Committee. Lots of unnecessary words to call two obvious liars dirty f*cking liars. Preventing the nonsense is the best start possible.

Unlikely partners Pelosi and Cheney team up for Jan. 6 probeWhen Nancy Pelosi raised a glass to Liz Cheney, it was the most unlikely of toasts. Democratic lawmakers and the Republican congresswoman were gathered in the House speaker’s office as the group prepared for the first session of the committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol. Pelosi spoke of the “solemn responsibility” before them and raised her water glass to Cheney, a daughter of the former vice president and the sole Republican in the room. Cheney is very likely ending her political career and certainly will never be picked for another committee again. If that's what you call teaming up 'partnership.' Do you understand 'winning' at all? Why are there no comments about a 500000$ painting painted by the Presidents son and who is not a painter

James Carville: 'Pathetic' McCarthy 'has no sense of shame''McCarthy, the pathetic glob of protoplasm, he was panicked out of his mind on Jan. 6th, calling the president, begging for help,' James Carville says. 'He refuses to have the bipartisan committee, now he's doing this. The guy has no sense of shame.' invertebrate Its a wonder he can f*cking sleep soundly at night McCarthy has zero respect for the constitution, himself, American people . He absolutely cannot be speaker, 3rd in line. Besides, he is probably involved in the insurrection and hopefully is compelled to testify.
