The House Oversight Committee has opened an investigation into Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s recent visit to Pennsylvania as the November election quickly approaches.
The committee is asking questions surrounding the Biden-Harris Administration’s alleged use of taxpayer-funded resources to fly Zelensky to the state, Fox News reported on Wednesday.
In a press release, the committee said Chairman James Comer (R-KY) “is seeking documents from the White House, Department of Defense, and Department of Justice regarding the Biden-Harris Administration’s misuse of government resources that allowed Zelensky to interfere in the 2024 presidential election.”

strongly worded letter to follow.....
the same committee that supposedly had the receipts to prove Biden had taken bribes but then ditched the entire effort for no apparent reason?
Impeach acting POTUS Harris.
We need to deport that little bastard back to the Ukraine and have him take the Vindman boyz with him. We don’t need any of them interfering with our elections.
> strongly worded letter to follow..... <
Which will include another big check from US taxpayers to Ukraine.
As I understand it, the Legislative Branch can investigate stuff and express outrage over stuff, and — in extreme cases — impeach and remove people, but in general does not have power to punish lawbreakers.
The Executive Branch is tasked with seeing that the laws are faithfully executed.
And this means that if the Executive Branch is breaking the law, there is not a whole lot that can be done about it.
Perhaps Trump should make note of this and go scorched earth when he gets into office. Do what is Right and damn the laws. What can the Legislative Branch do about it?
I think this is one glaring omission in the constitution.
Any 2 of the 3 branches should be able to have oversight on the third.
They can only operate within their legal areas when you have good people in them. As it is set up now, that is supposed to happen BEFORE anyone gets into those offices.
No way to get rid of them once they are.
In general, the House has two options:
1. They could institute impeachment proceedings. But the GOP won’t play hardball.
2. They could cut off funding. But again, the GOP won’t play hardball.
1) Go on Hannity
2) Send a sternly worded meaningless letter.
How many times have we seen it?
Sure after they okayed 1 billion bucks to be given to this actor. Incredible!
The agency involved will issue the standard "mistakes were made" form letter.
Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.
FReepmail me to be added to the list.
Going nowhere.
investigation to be concluded in about 2030
Is expired-term Zelensky allowed to take gifts from foreign governments?
Zelensky’s nothing more than a bag guy to line his and his officials with our money.....while trying to beef up WW3 in he war he's loosing!....( We also pay for all his world trips not just here.)
Next in line.....
ChicagoConservative27 | → | Thanks for your post! |
wny | → | “strongly worded letter" I’m ‘whiney’ too! You are so right about that. We all know it too, that such a letter would be, at best, the only RINO action in response to criminal activities, misuse of public property, election interference, more. |
Jonny7797 | → | Yep, you know it, what you wrote, “same committee that supposedly had the receipts to prove Biden had taken bribes but then ditched the entire effort for no apparent reason?” DUH. Ongoing congressional crap, and the reason most of them need replaced with real Americans as soon as We the People can tactically and strategically manage it. |
Dogbert41 | → | “Impeach acting POTUS Harris.” Absolutely. She in her position actually committed TREASON by collaborating to that extent for personal gain. (Maybe wait until January 21, 2025 when she is totally out of office and there is no one to pardon her.) |
FlingWingFlyer | → | “We need to deport that little bastard back to the Ukraine and have him take the Vindman boyz with him. We don’t need any of them interfering with our elections.” PLEASE, although I prefer the Vindman things 1 and 2 wear striped in a prison. |
Leaning Right | → | “Which will include another big check from US taxpayers to Ukraine.” Comment 2 included this re the House → “1. They could institute impeachment proceedings. But the GOP won’t play hardball. 2. They could cut off funding. But again, the GOP won’t play hardball.” Probably, unless we gave it to him in cash already to take home. Laundering money is hard work! And we need ALL THREE BRANCHES in the control of Orthodox Americans who follow American ways. And PLAY HARDBALL. With few solo exceptions, they watch the game in a celebrity suite drinking, and do not even play softball. In fact, they do not even know what they are watching. |
ClearCase_guy | → | Your intro, then → “Perhaps Trump should make note of this and go scorched earth when he gets into office. Do what is Right and damn the laws. What can the Legislative Branch do about it?” Just non-RINO following of the laws should get the bad guys, no scorched earth needed. And 01/21/2025 any pardon power is not in communofascist hands. And we need ALL THREE BRANCHES in the control of Orthodox Americans who follow American ways. |
Mr. K | → | You had intro and closing lament also, plus this → “They can only operate within their legal areas when you have good people in them. As it is set up now, that is supposed to happen BEFORE anyone gets into those offices.” And we need ALL THREE BRANCHES in the control of Orthodox Americans who follow American ways. This of course is easier said than done. PRAY and keep working. |
OakOak | → | “1) Go on Hannity When we look up a Hannity in the dictionary, it shows a picture of a badly written incomplete strongly written letter. The needed exhortation is as was written, “HOW MANY TIMES HAVE WE SEEN IT?” And the answer goes back to every such letter since however old we are. |
RoseofTexas | → | “Sure after they okayed 1 billion bucks to be given [yet again] to this actor. Incredible!” All con men are actors, usually better than real actors, then only get one take, before the take what’s yours. So it also works to say “to this con man.” I prefer to say, “to this minion” though, since they are all working for even bigger bad guys. |
Steely Tom | → | “The agency involved will issue the standard "mistakes were made" form letter.” Steely, I prefer to restate your comment in a musical format that may be dear to your heart: “You go back, Jack, do it again |
lightman | → | “The agency involved will issue the standard "mistakes were made" form letter.” We individually recognize how very often the government is involved in a LIE TO ME and smears it in our face with such letters. |
Revel | → | “Going nowhere.” Realist. Plays the odds. I would like to say there is hope, but the bad guys have misappropriated our NORMAL culture yet again, too nauseating. Instead, we are the favorites for the election this time, and after Donald Trump takes office, our recruiting is going to be great! (And when even Chris Cuomo is apologetic and making some sense, we all can hop...ah...ah...HOP on our winning express, yeah!) |
rottweiller_inc | → | “investigation to be concluded in about 2030” We all can agree with the sentiment but by their history no one except the Dems seems to be that dogged in their pursuit. I used to say (correctly) that Republicans are just retarded Democrats, 5 years behind them in their development. That is 6 years off, so even the RINOs will have forgotten by then. (Now we have to say “Repubs are ‘developmentally delayed’ Dems” or all the Dems and RINOs even will just scream, “you said the R word!!!”) |
If we are really lucky, we’ll get a shiny new REPORT!
“strongly worded letter to follow.....”
What else can they do? If someone had done this for Trump the media would be all over this and reporting what the House Oversight Committee was doing every day.
