Cheney told CNN’s Jake Tapper: ‘The president of the United
States is responsible for ensuring the laws are faithfully executed.

SO.......I guess this means Hunter Biden does the perp walk.

The United States Capitol Police (USCP) is a federal law enforcement agency in the United States charged with protecting the United States Congress within the District of Columbia and throughout the United States and its territories. It answers to the Capitol Police Board and is the only full-service federal law enforcement agency appointed by the legislative branch of the federal government of the United States.

Capitol Police Board

•Karen H. Gibson, United States Senate Sergeant at Arms (Member)

William J. Walker, U.S. House of Representatives Sergeant at Arms (Chair)

J. Brett Blanton, Architect of the Capitol (Member)

J. Thomas Manger, Chief of Police (Ex-Officio Member)

The United States Capitol Police has the primary responsibility for protecting life and property, preventing, detecting, and investigating criminal acts, and enforcing traffic regulations throughout a complex of congressional buildings, parks, and thoroughfares. The Capitol Police has primary jurisdiction within buildings and grounds of the United States Capitol Complex. It also has concurrent jurisdiction with other law enforcement agencies, including the United States Park Police and the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia, in an area of approximately 200 blocks around the complex. Officers also have jurisdiction throughout the District of Columbia to take enforcement action when they observe or are made aware of crimes of violence while on official duties.

Additionally, they are charged with the protection of members of Congress, officers of Congress, and their families throughout the entire United States, its territories and possessions, and the District of Columbia. While performing protective functions, the Capitol Police have jurisdiction throughout the entire United States.

Thompson and Cheney are flat liars. The president has nothing to do with the legal control of DC and hasn’t since May 2, 1828 when Congress passed an Act that expanded the police regulations of the City of Washington to include the Capitol and Capitol Square. It is on this date that the USCP commemorates its founding.

Dick Cheney is a war criminal. His daughter is just another privileged Washington a-hole in serious need of an old fashioned butt-whooping.

Article I of the Nuremberg Trials was for the making of aggressive, unwarranted war against another country. Cheney knew that the WMD myth and the Saddam connection to 911 were complete lies yet he fostered the crazy invasion anyway. That is a war crime and he is a war criminal.

They are the L E G I S L A T I V E branch of government.

They have no criminal investigative or prosecutorial powers.

They can “conclude” all they want. It wouldn’t make any difference to anything.
Nobody can stop President Trump from running in 2024.

The conclusion is already determined.

Given that the deep state did exactly this same play the first time he was elected, I would not be surprised in the least if this (thus far notional) DOJ "investigation" drags out through the next election as an "insurance policy" in case Trump or any republican who would be even remotely Trumplike in nature were somehow elected. Closing down this now (again, thus far notional) witch hunt investigation would be characterized in the media as a major scandal that shakes the very concept of justice to the core and the establishment would use it as an excuse to torpedo any of that future administration's actions. I can totally see that happening because that's already the lengths they went through in 2016 and they don't care that hundreds of people have spent months in jail on trespassing charges as political prisoners. To them, those people are not people.

I wish there was a law that forced a 3 generation skip in elected office holding of any kind.

The Fox host argued that the GOP was now more diverse, larger, and more blue-collar since Cheney left office and that it was “funny” that he wanted to decry its leadership.

The “dinosaurs” of the Cheney era “really care more about promoting democracy abroad than preserving it at home,” Ingraham said.

“They’re the ones who don’t really trust democracy because they know that when the people get their way, it means things like border enforcement, ending unlimited immigration, keeping politics out of schools, and protecting women’s sports. They simply can’t risk another repeat of 2016,” she said.

The actions of the former vice president and his daughter, Rep. Liz Cheney, a Wyoming Republican, were all part of an act to save their “dying species,” according to Ingraham.

“Yet none of it is going to distract from their own failures on inflation, COVID, the border, these wars, Afghanistan. And the GOP is never, ever going back to the Bush-Cheney playbook,” she said.

Reps. Liz Cheney and Bennie Thompson have already ruled that the January 6 Committee will conclude Donald Trump committed a crime

Hey Dick!   You need to take your daughter hunting this weekend.   You know how to flush quail side-by-side in a zig-zag pattern.
