Is that a dog and pony show or a kangaroo court?

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has decided not to participate in the select committee investigating the Jan. 6 on the Capitol, yanking all of his GOP picks in protest of Speaker Nancy Pelosi's (D-Calif.) decision to reject two top Republicans.

"Unless Speaker Pelosi reverses course and seats all five Republican nominees, Republicans will not be party to their sham process and will instead pursue our own investigation of the facts," he said in a statement. LINK

I'm really surprised she allows any Republicans to sit in on the dog and pony show.


She has to be able to claim the whole thing is bi-partisan.

So while she is still obsessed with DJT, her district looks like a slum on steroids.


And the people in her district wanted this?

not surprised.

McCarthy should pull every Republican from the damned thing and tell Cheney if she participates, she's out of the caucus and out of the party.

McCarthy's on now claiming Pelosi is playing politics. I'm on his side of this whole BS, but he's doing the same thing by his committee picks.

ETA: He knew she would reject at least Jim Jordan and probably others.

What does this mean? Did Pelosi choose moderate Democrats for the investigation?

Of course not. This whole committee investigation is a sham.
