They can't seem to get it. The difference between their investigation, and the effective ones that the Democrats have conducted, is that the Democrats present evidence and facts. Their investigations turn up witnesses that are no longer available, if they ever were, and speculation, but the facts don't match their rhetoric. Matt Gaetz is proving himself worthy of being a Floridian, he can talk for ten minutes without saying a word.
It seems that they think if they just assert the same catch phrase over and over, it will be the proof that is eluding them. I'm no big fan of Christopher Wray, but he absolutely buried some of the more idiotic GOP house members in that hearing today.

Matt Gaetz DEMOLISHES FBI Director Wray
Its not about the hearing. Its about the clickbait video clips.

(38,632 posts)Reporter A: Repub X said FBI did this bad thing; Repub Y said FBI did this other bad thing; Repub Z etc.
Did Reporter B ask whether they presented any evidence? Of course not.
Reporter A (to keep things fair and balanced): But Dems also criticized the FBI for various minor stuff

After days of saying Devon Archer would spill the beans on President Biden, he did the opposite:
💥 Archer testified that Joe Biden NEVER discussed any business with Hunter and his associates.
💥 He also said point blank there was no bribe from Burisma to Joe or Hunter.
How much more time and money are they going to waste on this nonsense?!
Embarrassing!
