Lots of good links in the body of the article at the source.

Gotta love David Giglio's comment on twitter:

David Giglio @DavidGiglioCA The @HouseGOP can’t even muster the courage to impeach Mayorkis but they still want us to believe they intend to hold Joe & Hunter Biden accountable.

Laughable.

They don’t have the balls it’s going to take to save this nation from the Marxist Left.

Time to clean house.

The idea that Congressmen can be expelled for mere allegations of criminality only encourages the Deep State to bring even more of its political enemies up on charges. At the very least, the House should have waited for at least a conviction before expelling Santos, if not expel him at all. After all, why not let the voters decide or let Santos see the writing on the wall and decide not to seek another term?

The author makes a good point, but he’s wrong on the facts. In 2023 Santos pled guilty to check fraud charges in Brazil.

Obfuscate all you want but the Republicans refuse to win and purposefully aided the Rats in taking out Santos. The GOPe likes to screw us while protesting they had to do it for virtue’s sake.

Yeah, it’s in a X post at the link, sorry I don’t know how to include those in the posting.

But, he just posted on X, “Miss me yet?” with a image of the house floor with 215 to 215 vote count shown.

Using Santos as precedent, let’s throw out all the lying, cross-dressing, thieving congress critters.

Probably at least half.

This source typically is.

But it promotes a narrative its readers apparently want to hear and that's what counts the most these days. This used to be a characteristic of the Left, but not increasingly so on the right. Just the narrative, ma'am.

It was 214-216, not 215-215.

Nevermind - I see that one of the votes was procedural.

It is odd that some of the most conservative members of the House are who voted against it to kill this while the RINOs in more marginal districts stuck their necks out and held together with the rest of the caucus, then got left holding by bag by who have been typically mostly reliable votes historically and are in safer districts.

No, it was 215-215 but one of the Republican dissenters switched his vote so the matter could be easily rescheduled. Santos would have made a difference: I sadly predict this seat goes Democrat on Feb. 13.

I posted a factual point that directly contradicted one of the author’s main points.

How is that “obfuscating?”

Jurno trash in which the lead was omitted, not buried but omitted.

If the Republicans have a 40 seat plus MAJORITY in the House, then yes, it might be ok to ‘purify’ the caucus (a little inside DC talk, from my days there).

But when you’re a car accident or two away from losing your majority, perhaps, JUST PERHAPS, one should be a bit more careful about throwing away seats to the other side.

This reminds me of the way we threw away a Virginia Senate seat because Oliver North wasn’t ‘pure’ enough for Senate Republicans (he had made the Democrats look bad)...and it cost us BIG TIME in the following years.

Journalists should “have their license suspended” for writing articles like this one!

Yes that part was missing because it was a Twitter post copied into the article:

“Miss me yet?”

All of them are pervs and nuts! He was our perv that could be handled, big difference. Politicians are tools to be used by the constituents not to be confused with clergymen.
