Schumer blasts ‘extreme’ House GOP agenda: American people don’t want Congress to ‘just’ investigate
The Hill ^ | 01/13/2023 | JULIA SHAPERO

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer blasted House Republicans’ “extreme” agenda on Friday for focusing so heavily on investigations in its first real week of business in Congress.

“You know what the American people want us to do — they want us to do things to make their lives better,” Schumer told CNN on Friday morning. “They don’t want just Congress to investigate”

The House voted strictly along party lines on Tuesday to form the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government within the Judiciary Committee.

The subcommittee, which will be led by Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), aims to investigate what Republicans view as the federal government’s targeting of the right. However, it has largely been viewed as an effort to respond to the litany of investigations into former President Trump over the last few years.

Once the Democrats got control of Congress, investigate is all they did. Except for opening the borders and obliterating election security. And shipping money to Ukraine.

Unless it’s Trump, right Chuck? Then let’s get busy impeaching in the middle of a pandemic. Right? That was great!!!

Funny since that’s all Chucky wanted to do while Trump was president.

Well Chucky and Cocaine Mitch took away the House’s power of the purse, leaving them little else to do.

Embrace the suck, Chuck.

“Schumer blasts ‘extreme’ House GOP agenda: American people don’t want Congress to ‘just’ investigate”

So does Schumer plan to help the GOP replace Attorney General Garland, as that’s who needs to go if he wants to go beyondn ‘just investigating’.

One obvious way to make Americans’ lives better would be to toss Chuck-a-rooie into a dark cell on some uninhabited island. Put a few of his friends there to keep him company: Pelousy, Schiff, Kamala, Odungo, McConnell, et al.

What of the old extreme Left is extreme to the Left anymore?

Consequently we know why merely not subsiding into depravity with those running the DNC may qualify you as the extreme right in their eyes.

The Dems have even less Self-Awareness than does the Heretic Prince, the Duke of Montecito.

Greasy, snake Schumer the tumor is a terrible front man for Democrats. He’s repulsive. Apparently, the Soros paid propaganda machine’s daily narrative is that investigations are bad. They might expose how Obama sicced the security state on Republicans and rigged elections.

Schumer would sell his daughter to slave traders for the opportunity to be a media darling.

Schumer’s comments are hysterically laughable.

Just what did Pelosi do the last two years - “investigate” Trump 24/7/365 while in secret writing a blowout of an “Ominbus” spending bill to be trouted out, with Schumer’s blessing at the 11th hour. Pelosi and Schumer’s whole legacy is stealth legislation - laws that cannot be read or understood until after they are passed.
