That’s pretty good!
“The Federal Courts in DC have 6 ways from Sunday.”
Congress needs to review and modify the jurisdiction of the DC circuit. Their obvious partisanship has clouded their judicial performance.
I waiting for the financial connections to the federal judges and their families. The left likes to find favorable judges whose family members are likely benefiting financially from the Old Regime.
.
Going to a lot of people lawyering up with all the evidence in the open now democrat party hit hardest?.
They all are in a screaming mode to any news outlet a sure sign of guilt they sound like Harris logic.
Many lawyers going to be in fat city for awhile.
Agreed—great tactic—show the left a big shiny object to attack....while real work gets done right under their noses by folks whose names they will never know.
Thanks for the ping.
I don't think it was me that you're thinking of, but since you asked I will delve into the issue.
If you read my home page you will find that I've been critical of Republicans being soft and letting Democrats steamroll them over and over, even when Republicans are holding the stronger hand.
I've detailed how Mitch McConnell has let Democrat majority leaders renege on deals where Republicans deliver something first on the promise of Democrat reciprocation to follow. Guess what -- it never does.
I've written about Democrats breaking some long-standing tradition or practice to harm Republicans and then crying whataboutism when Republicans try to respond (what I call the "kick me" syndrome).
I've written about how Mitch McConnell undermined his own caucus by refusing to support winnable Republicans because they were not going to be McConnell sycophants.
I've written about how Mitch McConnell won't work with his House counterparts they way that Schumer and Pelosi did to create a unified Republican Congressional front on issues. McConnell chose instead to think of himself as the Grand Dealmaker that caused turmoil between the chambers.
All this is to suggest that it's not Republicans who are weak in providing government oversight. It's that they don't have the "savvy," no, the "wile" -- better yet, the "guile" to think of the things that Democrats are capable of doing.
When Republicans tried to conduct oversight, Democrats conspired to use procedures to let Republicans think they were cooperating (see the Senator Jay Livingston (D-WV) "pull the trigger memo against Republican investigations in 2003) or they would submit false allegations to muddy the narrative (see the Adam Schiff (D-CA) memo in response to Devin Nunes), to point out just a few examples.
I believe that the Democrats are not interested in oversight because they are the ones who have built a Rube Goldberg system of funneling taxpayer monies to their outside support groups that will advance their causes. I believe that Republicans are slow to discover these things because they don't have the sense to look for it. When they do get an inkling of things, Democrats are quick to use the media to scare them off of the trail.
In return, Democrats are slow to confirm Republican Cabinet members when Republicans win the Presidency; Democrats are quick to use the Ethics Committees when Republicans control Congress (See: Tom Delay, Newt Gingrich, Bob Livingston, Mark Foley, Denny Hastert, Matt Gaetz).
What were the things that Republicans wanted to investigate?
What were the things Democrats wanted to investigate?
In summary, I think Republicans are ineffective at oversight because they are incompetent at it, and Democrats are ineffective at oversight because they are complicit in the activities that avoid oversight.

Unhinged chick...OMG
Warning bad language
PREACH, SISTER!!!
Wonder how much Clinton stooge-”judge” Colleen Kollar-Kotelly is getting from USAID?
This is the same stooge that had a sad when Trump pardoned the abortion protestors she threw into prison to die.
She’s vicious Commie scum. We know how she’s going to “rule” on this.
I expect that we will find over the coming months that the answer to your question is because a good number of the vermin in congress were getting paid to "not find" things.
DOGE needs to investigate the finances of Judges Chutkan and Merchan.
For some strange reason she became more attractive as the f-bombs flew.
“ The Federal Courts in DC have 6 ways from Sunday”
There should be no Federal Courts in DC no anywhere else within 100-150 miles.
BUMP
