I’m glad to hear there are at least three who aren’t at least somewhat sympathetic to the coup. I’m thinking Tom Cotton seems mostly okay, too. One who really disgusts me is Ben Sasse. He so fully played Constitutional Conservatives for votes and financial support. It had to be intentional, knowing dang well he wasn’t who he presented to voters and contributors.

Isn't it amazing that Pelosi has allowed Schiff and little cabal to meet and conduct an Impeachment Inquiry in total secrecy without any Republican members at all?

How is this even possible, A Total Star Chamber in this country and no real outrage from anyone including most of the spineless Republicans lead my Mitt Romney????????????????

I was pleased to see my Congressman, Jody Hice, in the group that stormed the Schiff underground bunker.

And President Trump retweeted him a few hours ago!  A first.  Thank you, Mr. Hice!

Smaller Government as a concept is gone and has been for decades. The only way that happens is total government collapse and we start over.

The one who really has disappointed me is Rubio. That guy was supposed to be a true tea party Republican and all he has done is bitch about this or that with Trump. Disgusting.

And I saw a couple of female Republican women speaking outside Schiff’s dungeon. Proud to see them grew a pair, too :- )

Rubio is a wholly donor-owned POS who only serves his globalist masters. 100% disgusting and vile. Can’t wait to vote against him.

It’s too bad about Rubio. He comes out and supports Trump occasionally, but I think he really has a grudge against Trump (probably for some of the insults Trump hurled his way during the campaign) and isn’t ever going to be 100%.

Rubio’s still pretty good on some things, but I’ve noticed that he’s been getting weaker and weaker. Sad. That happens to people once they get elected and dip into the swamp waters.

Sorry, but the word “storm” as used here implies breaking down barriers. Doors are still closed and Comrade Schiff is still conducting his kangaroo court.

Want to storm the impeachment hearing? Take a fire ax to the committee doors.

House Intelligence Committee has 10 Republican and 15 Democrat members so it is not just one party at that meeting.

the move would have been the repubs to walk out of the illegal committee sessions.

The way this has been portrayed is Schiff and the Democrats alone.

I am pretty sure that’s a misleading portrayal. The way I understand it is that the initial materials are discussed in Intelligence, Oversight and Foreign Affairs committees and then released to the rest of the House possibly with security retractions. There are 49 Republicans (my own count from Wikipedia) in these committees, but Matt Gaetz is not one of them.

This move by Gaetz will flush Pelosi out. She must respond and she will blowup.

This should happen every time Schiff holds a hearing or tries to take a deposition. Grind the Democrat coup machine to a halt.

"Nothing ground to a halt. Supposedly, the Dems threatened the GOPers with an ethics complaint and they left."

______________

Wrong.

The Dems. were just pissed when the Republicans finished eating the 17 pizzas they brought in.

Floridians have a lot to be proud of these days, I think. Didn’t Israel get de-throned this week?
