Dem in House Oversight hearing refers to El Paso massacre and warns 'what goes around comes around'

Republicans at a House Oversight subcommittee hearing Wednesday scrutinized how federally funded non-governmental organizations (NGOs) advance progressive programs and sometimes employ people who have worked in the same federal agencies that oversee the grant money distributed to those NGOs. Many of these individuals in key positions at these NGOs, witnesses at the hearing testified, donate to Democratic candidates.

Democrats in the hearing blasted Republicans for wanting to cut the funding of nonprofits providing charitable services, and one witness took remarks from Rep. Greg Casar to be a threat of violence. A spokesperson for Casar's office said the comment was misunderstood.

The Democrats also criticized Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), but at the same time held up his posts on X critical of Republicans for not following through with DOGE’s proposed cuts as support for their opposition to Republicans. It wasn’t clear how Musk’s dispute with Republicans over the spending bill supported their criticisms of funding cuts to nonprofits.

“I guess that makes sense, because no Democrat could defend the tens of billions of dollars that are unaccounted for or doled out arbitrarily by progressives in the Biden administration to their political allies,” Daniel Turner, executive director of Power the Future and one of the witnesses in the hearing, told Just the News.

What comes around goes around? What does that mean?

Crusius shot up the Wal-Mart because he feared excessive immigration would be a threat to his preferred socialist policies of universal healthcare and a universal basic income.

He can’t be arrested. He has absolute immunity for anything he says in the House.

Congress can reprimand him or vote to expel him. Expulsion requires 2/3rds vote, which since a (D) follows his name is unlikely. Since he represents Austin, the voters there will not likely vote him out next year.
