...so they will have someone that will sneak back and tell them what's happening with the Committee. (I suppose Trump has already given him the order)
We all remember how he made the midnight run to the White House to let them know what the Intelligence Committee was up to. He's a handy snitch to have around.
As far as the usual suspects go, they may not want to be on the Committee? They might end up defending themselves from Liz Cheney? It would be too uncomfortable for them to try to explain their complicity.

for not being sufficiently slavish in his defense? McCarthy will have to send in the clowns.
The Speaker will have to decide whether to veto them.

(11,949 posts)No way in hell Speaker Pelosi allows the dickhead on the committee.
She is about to Benghazi them. Except this will be facts with film proof and testimony. And there were actual crimes committed. And this will stick.
The republican base does not care. But independents and moderate suburban females do. A large majority of Americans are still disgusted by that scene.

(2,868 posts)should veto any of Kevin's picks who voted against certifying the election results, and when Kevin complains, she should PUBLICLY tell him he's lucky they haven't been expelled from Congress completely.
There's been some talk that Kevin might boycott the select committee, and not send anyone, so if the Speaker vetoes a bunch of his picks, it might push him in that direction. Then there can be a serious investigation without idiotic distractions.
