Jeff Sessions is a Senator, Pete Sessions is in the House.

Didn’t you get the message from the GOP convention? Conservatives are not welcome by the GOPe. Well at least their ideas and candidates are not welcome. Their money is still welcome.

Old News Already Discussed:

AshLee Strong, a spokeswoman for Speaker Paul Ryan

(R-Wis.) said “the majority of the House voted to refer this matter to the Judiciary Committee consistent with regular order because it would have triggered automatic consideration lasting into next year, filling up weeks of floor time and crippling our ability to hit the ground running on Trump administration confirmations and ObamaCare repeal.”

Koskinen’s term ends in November 2017, though he has said that he would step down sooner if asked to by the incoming president.

Trump will replace him before we would ever get an impeachment.

The RINOs have stymied the proper processes of impeachment for months. Hearings hadn’t been held, it would not have been a ‘fair’ impeachment.
So this vote was a mess.

I don’t know why the RINOs are protecting this scum.

The most notable thing that happened though is that the RINOs tried to get Trump’s people to quiet the conservatives- and Trump’s people wouldn’t!

This vote was kept extremely quiet. The shame of voting “Yes”, to block the impeachment of this mule Koskinen, tells us much MORE about the House of Representatives than it does Koskinen.

It is outrageous the lack of public debate to hear the ridiculous reasons for such a crap filled vote, to give a pass to this criminal in charge, at the IRS.

Shocking, really. What the IRS did to Free Speech among conservative non-profit organizations is out of communist USSR.

Look who voted to tolerate it! Astounding.

“It is outrageous the lack of public debate to hear the ridiculous reasons for such a crap filled vote, to give a pass to this criminal in charge, at the IRS.”

Impeachment simply removes him from office. Trump will remove him before the Senate could.

Why waste valuable time on an effort that accomplishes nothing when there are so many other bigger issues to handle.

Impeach him now he gets pardoned. When Trump gets in you have a DOJ investigation.

That and..., too little time left for this Congress to get it done!

“Call your rep and tell em you aint paying taxes.”

Why do you want your rep working on impeachment when Trump will remove him before the Senate could?

I can explain it, although few here will like it.

Don’t get in the way of the sunshine of DJT’s ascendence. No freaking sideshows. Be patient. Let Trump deal with this in his own time, as we know he will.

IRS reform is too important to undertake at a time when Obama is still onstage and able to twerk the MSM into diminishing the GOP and DJT.

Don’t let Ryan and the House GOP steal the spotlight and taint the transition. The GOP has marginalized itself, don’t let the party get a shatshow underway when DJT is controlled the news cycle every single day.

Take your pick. And save your outrage if President Trump does not correct the problem in his first 100 days.

He will. Trust him. Relax.

Explanation enough?

When Trump gets in, he can be removed by Trump and the swamp drained.

“Wonder what Trump has to say about this?”

He probably said not to worry about him since he will be replace very soon anyway.

Much better to work on all the bigger things we have planned.
