All nine members of the Jan. 6 select committee voted to impeach Trump

Every member of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's select committee to investigate the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, which many conservatives view as a partisan game to blame Republicans and conservatives, had voted to impeach Trump.

Of the nine members on the select committee, seven are Democrats: Reps. Bennie Thompson, Zoe Lofgren, Adam Schiff, Jamie Raskin, Pete Aguilar, Stephanie Murphy, Elaine Luria; and two are Republicans: Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. All nine of them voted to impeach Trump in January over his alleged involvement in the Jan. 6 riot.

The two Republican committee members publicly feuded with Trump during his presidency.

"My vote to impeach was compelled by the oath I swore to the Constitution," Cheney said at the time of Trump's second impeachment, which resulted in her getting censured by the Wyoming Republican Party. Kinzinger also faced backlash – from his own family – over his vote to impeach Trump.

I'm certain this was just a coincidence because I remember Nanzi clearly stating this was bi-partisan.

What was I thinking?

No kidding?

Really?

Did they all go clean out Nanzi’s freezer, afterwards?

She is sickly obsessed with PDJT.

These hearings are for Pelosi’s benefit. She was asked twice if she wanted to increase Police presence on Jan. 6 and she declined. It was the lack of leadership on her part that allowed the officers to open the building up to the protesters.

Note to future Republican Speakers of the House: You have the authority to pick all of the committee hearing members. The precedent has been set. Use your authority.

I guess that’s why they call it a “select committee” instead of a “fair committee”.

Yep, they did. Next step is using this sham commission to put forth a congressional resolution which will make DJT ineligible to hold public office.

There’s no way for DJT to challenge.

Next up, Ron DeSantis. If DJT sees this coming, he should endorse and back DeSantis as soon as possible for DeSantis to have chance.

The U.S. Capitol Police are in search of a few good men.

Nothing this government does is bi-partisan and never will be. “Nanzi” is all about her way period and this is....

..... always a matter of deals and bribes on both sides of the aisle...and the power each might have to use these..... certainly not what is best for this nation nor the people.

...Therefore Pelosi’s created this committee to distract from her failed leadership.

It is bipartisan. Anti-Trump Democrats and Anti-Trump Republicans!

They will now get to vote to impeach him twice. Has the FBI been able to open Hunter’s computer yet?

“Note to future Republican Speakers of the House: You have the authority to pick all of the committee hearing members. The precedent has been set. Use your authority.”

Many members of Free Republic don’t like McCarthy.

I don’t really like Kevin “Jello” McCarthy.

However, Trump likes something about McCarthy.

You want to what that trait is?

“Ambition”
