I'm not telling anyone how to vote. I won't be voting because there is nobody on my ballot that represents me.

There is only 1 party in Washedupton.

It's not Conservative.

He, Mitch and Linda Graham all would rather be in the minority than to have MAGA candidates gain stronger roles.

They keep doing things to try to defeat good, honest, America loving conservatives.

I am convinced that a lot of the "republicans" have election insurance and are just there because they were selected, not elected.

When asked if he thought anyone in the Administration warranted impeachment he said "I don't see that in front of me right now". Hell, Biden will be 25th after midterms so that will take care of itself. But with Harris and every Cabinet member have done impeachable offenses either of commission or omission. For instance, Harris the south border Czar. She hasn't even been there. Impeachable act of omission.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy says if Republicans retake Congress after the midterms, they will not rush to impeach President Biden because he does not want to use the process for political purposes as Democrats did against former President Trump.

Why would you want Biden out of office? He's our best advantage.

We need to impeach Garland. It has to be the first act of a new Congress.

You're such a true believer. You really buy into the GOP having independent autonomy. You truly don't understand the Uniparty charade. Sad!

The impeachment stuff was bullshite. No reason to play their games and do what they did.

The smarter move is holding Benghazi style hearings on everything the administration has fricked up. Endless negative coverage of the Biden administration is a better play than an impeachment trial that goes nowhere.

Trump’s poll numbers went up after they impeached him the first time.

And your belief is politics is useless and yet you're on here right before an election proselytizing. A cynical man might see an agenda.

Impeachment is a waste of time because we won’t have the numbers to remove Biden from office anyways

He's correct.

I am all for "eye for an eye" but impeachment with a narrowly divided Senate is useless. The Dems will NEVER do it, regardless of the evidence.

The need to judiciously split time between legislating and oversight. They can be just as effective in bloodying up the Dems and Biden through investigative committees (although, you can expect any contempt referrals to fall on deaf ears with Mr. Garland)

If the Republicans retake the House and Senate, I want revenge. I want vengeance. I want to see the Democrats pay for their dog and pony show House Impeachment hearings. I want to see the Democrats pay for their dog and pony impeachment proceedings. I want to see the Democrats pay for their illegal Jan. 6 hearing. I want to see the Democrats pay for the way they have denied due process to Trump and the Jan 6 prisoners that are still locked up. I want to see the DOJ, FBI, and any other government agency pay for their bias and misconduct. I want to see Hunter and Joe pay for their corruption and lies. Yeah, there are a LOT of misdeeds, corruption, and lies that need to be corrected and punished. I want to see a Republican majority in both Houses that actually has the balls to do something about it.

It's more than vengeance. It's time for the GOPe to show us whose side they're on. How are they benefiting us if they go along with the Dems insane attacks on conservatives and never put them in their place? I need to see some good faith actions from these swampers. I don't want four years of impeachments, but I would like to see a couple heads roll, especially Garland. The guy is a maniac and has completely abdicated his oath of office. It's time to stop letting these abuses slide.

He's merely echoing the sympathies of our own Garret Graves.

With all we're already being asked to deal with, now we have to guess which of the Repub candidates running for office are more of the meek, malingering, stealth types we've already grown to know and love.

Sure, an impeachment of Biden would be mostly ceremonial, and it could even gin up sympathy for him. But none of that deterred the Left to do two in succession on Trump.

So with that craven attitude which seems to be smoldering right below the surface with the Repubs, what would be the probability that they would do real substantive removals, such as Garland, Wray. Or can we really expect any more indictments from them.

Sure, hon. Elections are where politics take place. It's time for conservatives to stop sitting on the sidelines and hold the government accountable. As I keep saying, start local and build a consensus. Make them pay. We are in a chaotic moment because people are moving. Why would we give up now?

I'm not. We spent millennia escaping the strong man mentality of perpetual war and slaughter. I'm not ready to go back because your taxes are too high and you're too lazy to bother going out to vote and fix it.
