The big disappointment will be if/when the DOJ wraps things up and the senators, representatives and other tRump enablers all get ignored.

They'll be shot.

When is the DOJ going to start with the real insurrections and Russian sympathizers ~ the ones that just took over the House of Representatives to they can continue Trump's coup . . . working from the inside this time?

January 6 ~ Part 2.

You mean, the seditious scum in the blue suits and red ties on the public's payroll? Those guys? The worst of the wurst in the GOP's traitor sausage.

Yes.
I hope that is the reply from law enforcement leadership the next time thousands of people try to storm the Capitol Building and stop our democracy.
Last time, when people being battered asked if they had permission to defend themselves and the lawmakers with their weapons, the answer was no.
Next time, and I have no doubt there will be a next time, the lives and personal safety of the line police officers needs to be taken into account. Beat one of them with a metal pole, he or she gets to defend their life.
I am in awe of the discipline of those who did their best on Jan. 6, overwhelmed and in great danger, they held their fire, other then the one case where the Representatives were clearly about to be assaulted.
Not sure what the difference is between being attacked by a foreign enemy and a domestic one. For all we know, the next one will entail Oklahoma City violence.
I am grateful for those who work to protect our lawmakers and our democracy itself. All I have is my tiny little vote, which has never gone to a Republican Party, and after Jan. 6, most probably will never.

It's amazing what the police are capable of when it's white conservatives.

It appears that Gym Jordan's judiciary committee and comedy troupe will have a subcommittee that will be sticking its nose into investigations of the terrorists, perhaps in an effort to stop prosecutions. I suspect that the Biden DOJ will have no truck with this left handed attempt to slow walk trials. Let's all hope for speedy justice and terrorists behind bars, including a certain fat orange loudmouth ...

"It appears that Gym Jordan's judiciary committee and comedy troupe will have a subcommittee that will be sticking its nose into investigations of the terrorists, "

Actually, Jim Jordan's sub-committee will be investigating the investigators of the terrorists. He also wants to know why Biden's DOJ has been so mean and nasty to those they've already prosecuted.

But that's only the tip of the iceberg. Every committee head that McCarthy appoints will have only one mission. Their real mission is to impeach Joe Biden.

They'll probably want to do it three times just to get Lewzer out of the record books.

Hmmm... perhaps more than three. A selection of current bills sponsored by MTG:

16. H.Res.1362 " 117th Congress (2021-2022)
Impeaching Joseph R. Biden, President of the United States, for endangering, compromising, and undermining the energy security of the United States by selling oil from the United States' Strategic Petroleum Reserve to foreign nations.

17. H.Res.1318 " 117th Congress (2021-2022)
Impeaching Merrick Brian Garland, Attorney General of the United States, for endangering, compromising, and undermining the justice system of the United States by facilitating the persecution of President Joseph R. Biden, Jr.'s, political rival, Donald J. Trump, the 45th President of the United States.

21. H.Res.598 " 117th Congress (2021-2022)
Impeaching Joseph R. Biden, President of the United States, for dereliction of duty by leaving behind thousands of American civilians and Afghan allies, along with numerous taxpayer-financed weapons and military equipment, endangering the lives of the American people and the security of the United States.

22. H.Res.597 " 117th Congress (2021-2022)
Impeaching Joseph R. Biden, President of the United States, for endangering the security of the United States and countering the will of Congress and other high crimes and misdemeanors.

23. H.Res.596 " 117th Congress (2021-2022)
Impeaching Joseph R. Biden, President of the United States, for usurping Congress's legislative authority and willfully circumventing the express guidance of the United States Supreme Court by extending the COVID-19 eviction moratorium, and other high crimes and misdemeanors.

27. H.Res.57 " 117th Congress (2021-2022)
Impeaching Joseph R. Biden, President of the United States, for abuse of power by enabling bribery and other high crimes and misdemeanors.


That should get them started.

Part two of McCarthy's plan is to destroy the good economy Biden has built so Biden won't be re-elected.

They need a veto proof Republican President in the White House in 2024 and a weaponized DOJ to accomplish all their goals (providing they hang onto their seats in November 2024)

My guess is McCarthy's band of five will become so over-exuberant and drunk with power that they'll implode.

Looking at current proposed bills from just the failed gym-rat and the failed bartender/Glock model, they are effing nuts. Who knows what the new total fraud will come up with?

He tried. But he fails at everything.

Magaheads laughed at me whenever I predicted it would reach a thousand arrests.

Who's laughing now?

I will go out on another limb and bet that a thousand of them are not laughing today.
