The House Republican Steering Committee on Tuesday selected several conservative firebrands to serve on the Oversight Committee during the 118th Congress, including multiple members who previously had their committee assignments stripped by House Democrats during the previous Congress.
The GOP-led House Oversight Committee will be composed of Reps. Kelly Armstrong (R-ND), Lauren Boebert (R-CO), Tim Burchett (R-TN), Eric Burlison (R-MO), Byron Donalds (R-FL), Chuck Edwards (R-NC), Russell Fry (R-SC), Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), Paul Gosar (R-AZ), Nick Langworthy (R-NY), Jake LaTurner (R-KS), Gary Palmer (R-AL), Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), Scott Perry (R-PA), Lisa McClain (R-MI), Pete Sessions (R-TX), and William Timmons (R-SC).

These committee meetings will be fun to watch.
“Firebrands” — I’ve only heard of MTG and Boebert, but they have earned that sobriquet. Are the others up to the task?
There are some excellent picks in that lineup. Matt Gaetz, Andy Biggs, Paul Gosar, Lauren Boebert, et al. did conservatives an invaluable service by putting some starch in Kevin McCarthy’s shorts in the election of the Speaker.
Prayers on steroids!
Kelly Armstrong doesn’t seem to be much of a firebrand.
More like a clinker.
“putting some starch in Kevin McCarthy’s shorts in the election of the Speaker.”
LOL!
And let’s hope and see.
How about Chip Roy?
So the definition of firebrand is somebody who doesn’t roll over up to ubiquitous media gaslighting
Nope, doesn’t ring a bell.
I’m SO disappointed our Rep from North Idaho (we only have two in the state) is invisible on all the key issues. Milquetoast seems to fit him a lot better than “firebrand.”
News: Pete Sessions is NOT a conservative firebrand. He is a rino’s rino.
Where is Louie Gohmert when you need him?
we should PICK the RATS for the committees like they did for J6...
I guarantee that Paul Gosar will be up to the task.
Caution - one strategy of internal conflict (inside the GOP) Is to put all of your non allies on a single committee and keep them busy.
That keeps the conservatives happy and ... distracted.
While distracted and occupied with the business of that committee, the conservatives cant impact other committees. Thus the agenda of the Uni party still moves forward.
Ping
If they put these committee proceedings on CSPAN they would get more viewers than late night comedy.
