They’re the only ones with any guts in Congress, unafraid to point out the obvious:
In addition to the potential crimes connected to the Steele dossier and FISA abuse, the lawmakers believe that the leaking of classified information, Clinton’s concealment of campaign payments to an opposition research firm, and Lynch’s threats to an FBI informant mentioning “reprisal” if he came forward with anti-Clinton information in 2016 also warrant investigation. The informant had provided the Bureau with information on the Uranium One scandal involving the approval in 2010 to sell roughly 20 percent of American uranium mining assets to Russia.
“We write to refer the following individuals for investigation of potential violation(s) of federal statutes,” the lawmakers wrote in the letter released by Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-FL). “In doing so, we are especially mindful of the dissimilar degrees of zealousness that has marked the investigations into Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the presidential campaign of Donald Trump, respectively. Because we believe that those in positions of high authority should be treated the same as every other American, we want to be sure that the potential violations of law outlined below are vetted appropriately.”
Having real consequences for Democrats’ abuse of power would be quite the novel approach.
Can’t think of anything else to say other than: +1
Aside from having the balls to do what is right – by the law – they also adhere to a basic tactic:
The enemy (Commie/Soccie/totalitarian Left) would have a lot less time to cause trouble with fake news and fake allegations if they were busy fending off numerous, serious legal challenges.
My guess is that the Dems think they can obfuscate/delay/drag their feet on cooperating with the investigations long enough for the 2018 November Congressional elections. The ones where they think there will be a “blue tide” taking over the House for sure if not the Senate as well. Then bye-bye any investigations about such hello pre-impeachment Trump hearings.
You’ll never get the main stream press to devote any ink or air time to report numerous, serious legal challenges to allegations against the commie/soccie/totalitarian left
Is it just me, or does anyone else think it odd that in the United States House of Representatives there has to be such a thing as a Freedom Caucus? What are the rest of the Congressional cauci?
Well, there is the Congressional Black Caucus that opposes racism and segregation.
…from their comfortable self-segregation in gerrymandered districts.
Huh Gerrymandered districts?
Sorry I am unaware of numerous CBC members from Pennsylvania (There 1). With 18 house members and 11% black population proportional Representation should be 2.
Of states that have multiple CBC members (Florida-4,Texas-4,Georgia-3,Illinois-3,Missouri-2,New York-2,Ohio-2,Virginia-2). For all except Missouri ratio of (black population*# of Representatives) is greater than the number of House CBC members in the state. With Missouri by ratio should be .8 Representative to black population. But Missouri does not appear to be gerrymandered, Schwartzberg Ratio (metric for district compactness, anti gerrymandering) it is 51.49 which is 12th. New York by ratio should have 4 black Representative.
Huh Gerrymandered districts?
Certainly true for Sheila Jackson Lee
There’s also the – unofficial, but quite real – Bi-Partisan Cheap Labor Caucus that wants less immigration enforcement and more H-1B visas.
Yes it Gerrymandered , but guessing the reason it was gerrymandered is for Ted Poe not to create a spot for Sheila Jackson Lee, just a side effect to prevent another lesser Sheila Jackon Lee’s. She won the district before it was starting to gerrymandered in 2004. Any district that includes downtown Houston district Jackson Lee is more likely than not going to win.
FC accused cbc members of having self segregated gerrymander district your example is not a example of this.
