I wonder if it’s new people who have their families with them on their Big Day...like people being sworn in to various offices bring family.

Maybe. I don't see any girls, just boys in suits and ties.

The girls are being furative. You can’t be too careful with Uncle Joe lurking about.

It’s not their kids, it’s their GROOMEES! (At least least on the Dhimmi side, though you might want to check if Linseed Grey-Ham has a young boy with him.) Just sayin’.

I wonder how many Dims will vote for McCarthy to prevent a more competent person from being elected.

McCarthy doesn’t look real happy or confident. I wonder if he knows it’s not going to go down...

NO...do NOT waste our time and our tax dollars on useless investigations that go nowhere and do nothing. Work on the problems facing America...infrastructure, jobs, energy...not more posturing and useless BS.

i have sent letters to my Senators and Congressman stating bluntly if they spend time and resources on more useless investigations then do not count on my vote in the future and do not expect any financial support either.
