Nancy Pelosi Appoints Adam Kinzinger to January 6 Kangaroo Court, to Maintain The Illusion of Republican Participation; Kevin McCarthy Blasts the Move as Stocking the Commission With Leftwing Fish

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) is criticizing two of his colleagues for accepting appointments to the select committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.
 
Speaking to reporters at the White House on Monday, the California Republican slammed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) for naming Reps. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) to the committee and suggested she was “pre-determining” the outcome of the probe.
 
“Never in the history of America has a speaker picked the other side,” McCarthy said. “So they’re predetermining what comes out.”
 
A separate reporter said, “Some Republicans have been saying that…”
 
McCarthy quipped, “Some Republicans.”
 
“Some Republicans have been saying that the GOP should play ball on this committee,” the reporter said.
 
The minority leader responded, “Really? Who is that like Adam and Liz? Aren’t they kinda like Pelosi Republicans?”
 
When asked if he planned to punish Cheney and Kinzinger for accepting spots on the committee, McCarthy said, “We’ll see.”
 
He also said he “couldn’t” tell reporters when the last time he spoke to them was.
 
Cheney responded to McCarthy’s comments, telling reporters, “I think that’s pretty childish.”
 
Earlier this month, Pelosi named Cheney to the committee, and on Sunday, she named Kinzinger to the panel, as IJR reported.
 
Pelosi’s announcement comes after House Republicans withdrew their five picks to be appointed to the committee after she rejected two of them.
 



 
Last week, McCarthy said that he had chosen five Republicans, including Reps. Jim Banks (Ind.), Jim Jordan (Ohio), Rodney Davis (Ill.), Kelly Armstrong (N.D.), and Troy Nehls (Texas).
 
However, Pelosi made news when she took the unusual step of rejecting two of the picks, Jordan and Banks. In a statement, she said she spoke to McCarthy “about the objections raised about Representatives Jim Banks and Jim Jordan and the impact their appointments may have on the integrity of the investigation.”
 
“With respect for the integrity of the investigation, with an insistence on the truth and with concern about statements made and actions taken by these Members, I must reject the recommendations of Representatives Banks and Jordan to the Select Committee,” she said.
 
In response to the House speaker’s move, McCarthy announced that he would withdraw his suggestion for the remaining three lawmakers. He also said Republicans would conduct their own investigation of the violence of the riot.

Pelosi, the alcohol-swilling drunk, only wants dependable Republicans on her Schiff-show kangaroo court white wash. Of course Republicans should “play ball” and find the facts, but that doesn’t mean they can’t ask the tough questions that need to be asked. Democrats believe “playing ball” and bipartisanship can only mean submitting to all their demands, doing everything their way and following Democrat orders.

This is why the vast majority of Americans have no faith, confidence or trust in our government. It is becoming a one-party totalitarian socialist police state. Whiny little crybabies cheer the abuse of power because that’s the only way they get their way. They’ll be along shortly.

Funny how we only have investigations for Democrat-serving issues, but not Republican/Trump.

Jan. 6th is a false-flag, an accusation of insurrection to blind and cover up the Democrats own insurrection.

Rather standard, as banana republics go.

There goal is to make the violent minority equate simply voting for Trump tantamount to sedition…the exact opposite of what it is.

This unjust court will go nowhere good.

Kevin McCarthy knows perfectly well what a January 6th investigation is going to reveal.

He also knows perfectly well why Jim Jordan and Jim Banks couldn’t be included in the commission as investigators, but will almost certainly be called upon to participate as witnesses.

Yeah, because they will ask questions, not promote leftist propaganda, like that liar Schiff did.

Jordan and Banks will each have an excellent opportunity to ANSWER questions.

Yeah, but it’s PELOSI that needs to answer to why there was no security and call in the FBI director to explain all the FBI assets that were there, helped plan the incursion but never warned anyone… unless they did and the warnings weren’t heeded. For some reason.

1/6 was not the result of an intelligence failure as FBI Director Christopher Wray, the US Senate, and the media tells us. Rather, 1/6 was the result of an intelligence set-up.

The following questions should be shouted from every megaphone, every street corner, and every Congressional lectern until the American people get full and complete answers:

Does the FBI now, or has it ever, maintained a formal or informal relationship or point of contact with Stewart Rhodes, whether directly or indirectly, including through intermediaries?

Do any other Federal counterintelligence equities, whether in military, intelligence or law enforcement, including but not limited to Army Counterintelligence, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF), or otherwise, maintain or have they ever maintained a formal or informal relationship with Stewart Rhodes, whether directly or indirectly, including through intermediaries?

If such a confidential relationship did exist between Stewart Rhodes and one or more U.S. counterintelligence equities, how do the FBI and other responsible agencies reconcile the enormous gravity of this omission from their previous deflections, non-answers, and boilerplate that they had “no actionable intelligence” before 1/6?

If such a confidential relationship did exist between Stewart Rhodes and one or more U.S. counterintelligence equities, does this explain the FBI and Justice Department’s failure to pursue criminal actions against Stewart Rhodes in similarly high-profile “right-wing conspiracy plots” in which Rhodes appears to have played a similarly driving role?

More specifically, did the FBI or any other U.S. counterintelligence equities maintain a discrete or confidential relationship with Stewart Rhodes during the 2014 Bundy Ranch standoff?

Was this fact dispositive in the Justice Department’s decision to charge 19 defendants — including certain of Stewart Rhodes’s alleged Oath Keepers underlings — for conspiracy to obstruct a legal proceeding, and to spare Rhodes of similar charges?

Has the FBI even procured a search warrant for Stewart Rhodes’s personal residence and home electronics? If so, on what dates and what specific categories of evidence were sought?

How does the Justice Department explain its failure to indict Stewart Rhodes on conspiracy charges for nearly six months, when its declared purpose for seeking bail denial for simple trespassers was the DOJ’s stated need to prevent “the immediate danger to the community” defendants allegedly posed?

Given that multiple Oath Keepers were charged before the January 20th inauguration citing the need to stop their “immediate danger,” why did the DOJ not file immediate charges against Rhodes, and then make a superseding indictment later in time, as is their routine practice in 1/6 cases?

Federal Protection of “Oath Keepers” Kingpin Stewart Rhodes Breaks The Entire Capitol “Insurrection” Lie Wide Open

Like Schiff’s “impeachment”, don’t expect any questions, witnesses or evidence that does not promote the leftist agenda to be introduced or allowed. Pelosi thinks rejecting Republicans named by Republicans but instead using hand picked Republicans whose attitude towards Trump she can rely on will restore “integrity”? Though she has very little integrity remaining to destroy, destroy it she does.

Your review is very good. wray is no different than Leventiy Beria. there is no intelligent intelligence in this county. jihad, diversity and all the other domestic terrorist groups have infiltrated all intelligence agencies. the fbi or f**k up beyond imagination will destroy any good investigation. ever watched a dog trying to catch it’s tail? no different.

Liberals that don’t care about the Constitution have infiltrated all agencies and are using them to pursue the leftist agenda, not protect and defend the American people. They are their own brand of jihadist, determined merely to destroy this nation.

Contrary to what the indoctrinated coo-coo for coco puffs here want to believe- or have been instructed to believe (which seems to change from day to day depending on the need to gaslight yourself), what happened on 1/6 was a crime. Over 600 people have been arrested and convictions are in process for that crime.

Child molester Gym Jordon and Jim Banks don’t get to be part of the investigation process of a crime that that they, along with 145 other Republicans, not only supported but was part of.

Was it a crime when leftists stormed the Capital and Supreme Court when their lies against Kavanaugh fell apart? Was it a crime when BLM/ANTIFA assaulted the White House and tried to burn down an historic church? Was it a crime when BLM/ANTIFA tried to burn down a federal court house and a police precinct with cops inside? I guess you feel those are justified.

The point being, how many that participated in those atrocities have been imprisoned without bail for 6 months in solitary confinement? Oh, those guys… the leftists. They’ve had their charges DROPPED.

It’s nothing but a political war against opposition. You support a totalitarian police state and you lie to do it.

The only child molester in this scenario is idiot Biden, your idol.

Intelligent Americans know 1/6 was an intelligence set up. The same cast of characters who were involved in the attempt to kidnap whitmer and storm the Michigan state capital were involved in 1/6. The Marxist left knew that the election had been stolen and it was likely(providing pence did his duty) that enough electors would not be assigned and the House of Representatives would determine President Trump won the election given he enjoyed 27-23 state delegation margin.

Now that forensic audits are under way and will continue in all 50 states, the outcome will show President Trump won in 2020. Also, it is highly likely 5 senate seats will flip and it might even fill some house seats.

The bottom line is the uniparty could not allow President Trump to win re-election. And they needed control of both houses of Congress to ramp up their assault on America.

Kevin McCarthy LIED. He thought Trump should resign. 04/21/22 – New audio shows McCarthy considered asking Trump to resign

NYT and CNN; a combination that doesn’t have a shred of credibility in it. Speaking of lies, how about that “missing 71/2 hours of phone log”? Who lied about that?
