Apologies for re-posting, but Jack hit on an incredible discovery that even HE did not highlight in his piece:
"Of the entire committee staff of ninety, only two junior members are registered Republican."
This is massive, and I certainly didn't know this. How many Freepers did? That Republican Congressional Committees are all run by Democrats???
Never mind the fact that this committee---I'm guessing about 16-18 people---has NINETY staffers? So now you know why the "right" questions don't get asked. The Congressmen tell their staffers, "I have a hearing with Comey on Tuesday. Prepare a list of the questions I'll be asking." Naturally, the Dem staffers ask about Russia.
I have said it for a long time. The “progressive” deep state dominates Washington D.C. in all the behind the scenes ways including all the behind the scenes positions working for Congress - in both major parties.
However, a Conservative in Congress with true Conservative principles - as opposed to just mouthing Conservative positions just to get elected - should not and would not be fooled by the Leftists in their midst. Unfortunately such Conservatives in the GOP are a minority.
Great strategy, abruptly abandon your elected post, then ask people to vote for you. Might work in UT itself, tho.
Then Donald J. Trump came along, so I get deeply involved here in Utah for him...
I have been in politics one way or another most of my life, along with being a Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Biker Chick, and Trucker...and I can't seem to get it out of my blood...
I fought so hard to make sure that Candidate Trump took Utah...I talked on phones, I stuffed envelopes, I talked to neighbors, I was even on here a lot pounding the good of Candidate Trump...
Now I have discs of information on things from years ago...and I want so bad and I want to go to D.C. and see if I can get into a ‘war room’ where we can discuss and pick apart the lies and the stories these phony people are saying about Our President...it hurts so bad to see how they are trying to get rid of this great man...oh sure, he makes mistakes, he's not perfect, but look at what he gave up in his life to serve American and the American People...
He had his life made, golf courses he could travel to in his own Trump Force One and helicopters, and hotels, and a grand estate in Palm Springs...a beautiful family, and do you know why he is doing what he is doing??? He was taught by his father that what you do, you give back and that is what President Trump is trying to do, giving all of us the lessons his father taught him: Don't give up, and dream big...
Oh how I wish I could be in a war room with some of the greatest minds and stop all this globalist trash, this New World Order B.S. and this ‘deep state’ crap!!!
Are the members of the Awn clan US citizens?
Thank you for all your hard work.
Very well put, we must get OUR people in these positions. No wonder things seem the same, doesn’t matter whether its Rep or Dem, the staffers are running the show.
Thanks much for the pings!
Holy cow.
You’re missing the point: why does ANY Republican have even ONE Dem staffer?
Some time ago I saw a letter signed by the Dems who begged and pleaded for the Awan Bros to be hired. I wish I could remember where I saw it, no doubt on FR someplace. They begged for those guys to get hired, pleaded. WTH???? What was going on there? I assume, probably the Dems knew the Awan Bros were going to hack every Congress member and get dirt? Send classified stuff to Paki? I wish I knew more.
What’s so tough about their job that they even need a staff in the first place?
BING! BING! BING! We have a winner. At least someone can connect dots.
“Many of the staffers leaving have ties to Chaffetz and are in fact fellow alumni of Brigham Young University. Many on the Hill refer to the large number of BYU alumni serving in federal government as the “Mormon mafia.”
Well, looky where the swamp-dwellers came from!
Minion Country
That’s worth hunting down. Can you give more detail/context so we can search for it?
I think I mentioned many years ago, both the Democrats and Republicans were riding in the same limousine. This became inordinately clear long ago. Just look at the damage done in every direction over the past 2 decades or so.
And did anyone notice that Obama couldn’t successfully negotiate with anyone but the Republicans?
Pass along to the Trump administration to end funding these anti-American ‘faith-based’ charities. I owe Rome nothing, and I resent to ‘high’ heaven being forced to fund their charities.
If you’re talking about the mulsim’s that were working IT, for the DNC, I don’t think so. None of them had the background to get the clearances needed. But, now they’re Pakistan, far away from the reach of the US law enforcement arm, which is where many in DC, would probably like them to stay.
OMG. We don't get anything done in Congress because our people are not only spineless but they're stupid and lazy to boot. Are they nuts?
It's bad enough the only questions 'the press' ask are ones fed to them by Democrat War Room Professionals, but now OUR guys are played for fools too?
It's over - time to start electing a new type of Republican...
