Exclusive: Republicans plan aggressive Biden probes if GOP wins House

House Republicans have begun mapping aggressive probes of the Biden administration if they win back the majority — including inquiries into the origins of COVID, a leak of IRS data about billionaires, and accusations the NSA spied on Tucker Carlson.

Why it matters: The plans, obtained exclusively by Axios, show House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy would make muscular use of majority powers for the last two years of President Biden's term if, as expected, the GOP wins the majority in next year's midterms.

McCarthy plans to send a spate of "preservation notices" to departments throughout Biden's Cabinet, ordering them to retain documents that might be needed for future GOP oversight hearings.

Between the lines: Republicans want to deflect attention from the 1/6 commission, a real-time probe of real violence, death and looting in the Capitol.

Sounds like these idiots are going to have to dig deep to find anything. They'll probably just make shit up on the fly.

Impeachment for both President and VP on the way.

Anyone who thinks you play fair with the Republicans is foolish.

Holding back on the Republicans will not save the Democrats.

You have to fight fire with fire with them.

If they have the Congress and the Supreme Court who will stop them.

They will not play by the rules.

Meanwhile our side plays by the rules and wonder why they loose.

The clock is ticking on 1/6.

Some high ups need to go to jail.

They need to knock her out of the running for President.

If they did manage to impeach Biden and remove him then Harris would take his place.

Never underestimate the evil of the Republicans.

Anything to get back into power.
