No. bammy was ineligible but was elected. Ted Cruz was accused of being ineligible. This commission would be partisan and exclude Republicans.
And if the commission found out something about a democrat, the media would suppress it.
This is the go to position for Democrats/Leftists. If they don’t get what they want, if they can’t control the situation or end result, then the system/process must be changed so they can get what they want.
How Soviet of him.
We the people need to vet our politicians.
Let’s start with removing them all from office.
Elections have consequences and this one, if we don’t win, we’ll never win again. And FR, or any other conservative voices will be shut off permanently. And many of us will be in camps being reprogrammed.
The left should be giddy with glee.
Not a single person has been accountable for the criminal enterprise of progressive liberalism that has run the show now since Clinton took office. Every institution in our nation has learned to bow down for the deep state for fear and intimidation.
The far-left establishment from both parties wants us to vote - from a list of identical candidates that they have approved. I don’t think they understand history:

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, —That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Ditto that. It is possible he is just trash talking to make some coin on MSNBC, but I doubt it. I take everybody at face value. He doesn't seem much different than Comey, McCabe, Strzok, and fill in the blank....
The bipartisan commission already exists, it’s called the American Electorate.
Deal with it you bunch of Bozos!
They have such a thing in Iran. Howzit working out?
I think the FBI should be folded into the Department of Homeland security and anything the FBI does that is duplicated already can be given to DHS to run. The labs and other services can be put under DHS control immediately. FBI agents can be revetted and hired into DHS and the entire FBI upper echelon, the political appointees fired. The rest who can’t be fired or let go can be given a desk and phone and a pen and a pad of paper and made to sit there with no cell phone or computer allowed for 8 hours each day. They can do this until they get sick of it and resign or if something comes up that the services of such people could be utilized again.
I read in a history book that those “bipartisan commissions” used to be called elections once upon a time.
That's because once these people are entrenched, they hire and promote the same types of people.
No government agency should be able to do their own hiring. None. It should be like jury duty, where a group of private citizens (chosen randomly but with experience in the field of hire) are picked (say about 20) to vet and hire people. Each group should be given 10 positions to fill, and then the group changes.
You cannot let bureaucrats decide who gets to be bureaucrat with them.
For the FBI, you would pick your group of private citizens from say, detectives, a few attorneys, police (including police forensics), some with expertise in IT, a privacy ethicist or two, and then a certain percentage from the voting public.
“Lefties leave out the will of the voters? They make the choices and we have no choices but what we are allowed by them? Are you kidding me?“
They have always left out the will of the voters in their Democrat primaries. That’s the purpose of “super delegates” - that’s how they defeated Bernie Sanders twice even though he was the most popular with the voters.
Just arbitrarily award “super delegates“, and the DNC can nominate whomever they want, regardless of the voters.
Is they want to force the Republicans to do the same thing by setting up a “bipartisan” commission.
What a joke.
Hannity is an IDIOT!
I have worked for both federal and civil large organizations; the “rank and file” always know what’s going on from the top down.
If, and that’s a mighty BIG IF, the rest of the FBI people (the 99%) didn’t know what their bosses were up to, then they are INCOMPETENT and should be FIRED!
Out of that 99% it just seems strange to me that NOT ONE of them was willing to blow the whistle on their corrupt bosses, they were all complicit in the crimes being committed and not a SINGLE ONE was willing to come forward.
The whole organization is rotten; and every officer, clerk, and janitor should be fired.
Then you can start to rehire and rebuild.
The only “we” involved is We The People, and “bipartisan” is unconstitutional, as is any invocation of party membership. Mr. Figluizzi might want to actually read that document that he once swore to support and defend.
I don’t think Trump will see another term, even if he wins enough votes for an electoral college victory. The DC powers will do everything to prevent certification and push it to the House for Nancy to select Biden. There’s no way another Trump term will be allowed by the Uniparty.
State certifications for Trump will be contested and courts will be involved. Any ideas on which way the DC circuit would go?
