"“Speaker Pelosi failed to appoint members consistent with the authorizing resolution of the Select Committee… Thus, the Select Committee as it currently stands—and stood at the time it issued the subpoenas in question—has no authority to conduct business because it is not a duly constituted Select Committee. Chairman Thompson’s subpoenas are invalid and unenforceable.”

The “Select Committee” of Democrats and two “Republicans” to investigate the January 6 riot is an abuse of power but typical for how efficient Democrats are at weaponizing their congressional power.

Rules and Laws do not apply to Democrats, even when they voted for those. They will tell you so.

I hope Mark Meadows knows this before he meekly obeys that lunatic panel.

Filed in United States District Court for the District of Columbia, where it’s 11-4 rats (8 of them Obama stooges, 2 Biden). Hopefully Meadows will draw a Trump appointed judge, but it’s an extremely swampy court.

Presidential successors do not get to decide what of their predecessor’s communications are and are not privileged. If they allow that, in 2025, the public might just learn how much the Chicoms paid Foe Jiden via Hunter, and what favors he did for whom in exchange for Hunter’s “art”.

The media never holds these Dems. accountable. They always go after Republicans. The media is the Democrat Party at work. If the committee is not legit, the Republicans such as McCarthy and McConnell should keep it in the public eye.

Republicans are not aggressive enough. They expect donations for not doing their jobs. If the commitee is partisan and biased, it should be a priority of Republican.
