Republicans Plan Agenda Of Revenge If They Retake The House In The Midterms

Republican members of the House of Representatives are reportedly working on an agenda that is nothing but pure revenge if they manage to take back the House in this year's midterms. One of the first items on their agenda is to "aggressively" go after the January 6th Select Committee in an effort to discredit the work the Committee has been doing for the past year. It isn't clear yet how this will help them, but they feel confident they can find a way. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

In a recent interview with Axios, a senior G O P staffer made it abundantly clear that Republicans are 100% going to enact an agenda of revenge. I like to call it, should they take back the house of representatives, this coming November in the midterms. Now, specifically this staffer, here's what they had to say. I'll just read it. When Republicans retake the majority, we will exercise our oversight responsibilities, including subpoena authority, to review all transcripts and information that the committee has access to in order to identify the truth. Um, they also said they're gonna investigate house speaker, Nancy Pelosi for what? Look I am no fan of Nancy Pelosi. But if you think Nancy Pelosi's actually committed a crime, then I think you're a little bit delusional, but okay. You, you gonna, you're gonna subpoena the committee, right? You you're gonna tell 'em you gotta keep all your documents, which they were

These people are so effing stupid. Oh my God, I'm sorry. Like I can't even finish a thought because we're literally dealing with the dumbest people in the country that unfortunately actually have power. And they're probably about to get more power in the midterms and I'm sorry, but that thought is both hilarious and terrifying. And sometimes it makes it hard to actually finish my point. But again, the committee's not going to destroy this when they're done with it. I mean, what a stupid effing thing to even say, like, we're gonna make sure they don't get rid of it. We, we think the committee's done. Like, all right. Wow. This is amazing smoking gun evidence. Right? Well, well done with that. Don't need it anymore. Right?

People, this dumb should not be in positions of power. People. This stupid as this senior G P staffer shouldn't even be allowed to be near the capital. That's how dangerous and crazy they are, but let's get real for a second. Okay. Let's put all that aside. The big issue here is again, as I called it, the agenda of revenge, if the Republicans do in fact win the midterms, which again, all signs are pointing to yes. When they take power in November. All right. Excuse me. In January, we are going to see two years of absolute inaction on any important issue in Washington, DC. You know the house, we're not, we're not gonna have budgets. We're gonna have government shutdowns. We're going to have all of these horrible things. You're not gonna get any legislation. That's gonna make your life better because Republicans have been telling us literally now for months, they just care about their agenda of revenge, right? We're

Gonna subpoena the January 6th committee, hunter Biden, come on down. You're gonna testify for days and days, months, even, maybe who knows Nancy Pelosi. Like if they're gonna investigate her for God, knows what they're gonna investigate everybody for everything for any reason, because they can. And because they're bitter and because they want revenge, that's the next two years of our lives folks. So buckle up cuz I promise you. It's gonna suck.
