7. I guess that's what "bipartisan" means to repubs.

No cooperation. Period.

President Biden needs to stop trying to get them on board. Not to mention a couple of dem senators.

DU dolts upset that republicans don't want to partake in the dems' illusion of having a bi-partisan committee.

The partisanship of Pelosi's with hunt needs to be made clear. And a line in the sand drawn for RINOs ... that can be used to primary them.

11. Stripping committee assignments used to be rare for extreme misbehavior

it was originally for things like members who are caught breaking the law or having affiliations with organized crime or extremist groups. Now Republicans are gonna to use it as a routine measure to control Congressmembers. Shades of how they started treating the filibuster 12 years ago

It takes a lot of balls for a party who acts like this to say they're a party of traditional values when they continually abuse traditions to accomplish their goals

I guess this DUmbass forgot about the Dems kicking MTG from her committee assignments. That's ok I look forward to when the GOP remove Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib from their respective committees. As far as a commission goes it could have been bipartisan if all the rioting would be examined like the GOP asked for but that would be racist or some such nonsense

You mean like Diane Feinstein and Eric Swalwell?  That kind of affiliations with organized crime?  Or is that just for the republicans?

Kevin McCarthy had better make good on his threat.  I don't trust him.
