House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday announced she's rejecting two of House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy's picks for the House select committee to investigate the January 6 Capitol insurrection.
Pelosi said she could not accept McCarthy's recommendations of GOP Reps. Jim Banks and Jim Jordan.
"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," Pelosi said in a statement.
"The unprecedented nature of January 6th demands this unprecedented decision," the House Speaker added.

He just announced that either Pelosi agree to all five or none of the Republicans will participate.
The republicans should refuse to take any part in this hyper partisan inquisition.
The article says he’ll pull all five.
He says he will do number 2.
The. Bitch. Is. No. Good.
Hopefully McCarthy will do what he should of done in the first place; told Nanzi to go pound sand! The GOP will not be sending anyone to her new “horror show”.
The Republicans simply will never learn. They don’t even have to become fleabaggers. Just let the chairs sit empty.
WASHINGTON — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., rejected two of Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy's picks for the select committee charged with investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, prompting the Republican leader to pull all of his proposed appointees, a source familiar with the matter told NBC News.
More drama this way.
I'll even surmise McCarthy knew the moves ahead of time - He planned to not participate; he'd give P some names, she'd reject a few, then he'd completely pull out.
The MO is give her rope, she will hand from it.
hang = hand.
OK. Obviously Nancy & McCarthy have both calculated that non-cooperation is the way to go. We shall see who benefits.
“”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”
What a joke when she has the biggest liar in Congress (Schiff) as head of the committee.
Do the pubs have to nominate congressmen?
How about Ed Buck?
Oh, and Hunter Biden
You don’t know how much I hope you are right. I just have 50 years of watching the Republicans get played virtually all the time. One exception I can remember is when Newt was the Leader.
