The GOP now wants to investigate Walz

[moonshinegnomie]

Oversight Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) on Friday announced that he is opening an investigation into Walz’s work related to China, including coordinating student trips, and sent a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray requesting a swath of documents and any correspondence with Walz related to China.

The FBI and teh administration should tell comer to get fucked. This is just a cheap political stunt. Maybe instead the FBI should just arrest Comer for being a doucebag

7. First, do Ivanka and China.

Then Jared and Saudi Arabia.

[jumptheshadow]

8. Walz advocated for human rights in China

He took his students to Tiananmen Square and educated them about the brutality of the Chinese Communist Party. He also has advocated for American business interests.

Republicans hope to smear Governor Walz by tying him to Communist China. The truth is, while he loved the Chinese people, he was deeply critical of their government's practices.

9. The skeletons in Comey's closet are itching.

What is that fucking douchebag hiding? Come clean, motherfucker.

defended Trump’s Role in Jan. 6 and Backed His False Claims of Voter Fraud, Voting Against the Bipartisan Proposal to Establish an Independent Commission to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol.

[Voltaire2]

21. Nothing at all politically motivated about this.

Obviously there are a lot of serious issues that need to be investigated by the usual klown parade.
Don't forget that Wray is one of the Klowns.

[bigtree]

22. 'investigate?'

...that's not what they want to do.

That's not what they do. They run a perpetual campaign against whoever they fear. Calling this an investigation is like calling McCarthyism a fact-finding effort.

[JJ101]

23. To Dems

It is a badge of honor to be “investigated”.

[pandr32]

24. Political stunts are all they do.

[onetexan]

25. yup, fishing expedition

[Diamond_Dog]

26. Oh, for the love of ....

[toad-eye]

27. Walz was nominated weeks ago and they're just now starting their hearings. Most incompetent repugs EVER

I fully expected the repugs to start an investigation into Walz.
If they have the House, the repugs do this for every Democratic candidate.
They're a sack of butt-holes. It's what they do.
And, like clockwork, when the election's over, the hearings stop.
They make no attempt to make it less obvious.
What blows my mind is that it took this long to start up their sham Walz hearings.
It's nice to know they're poorly organized.
These are the people who think it's a good idea to run their tRumpy ads before Meidas Touch content on YouTube.
Great waste of money.
I let the ads run on mute.
That way tRumpies get charged more for the ad.

[Traildogbob]

28. How about

Ya get right on that AFTER ya “take a look” at 10 million from China and 2 Billion from Saudie.
Go ahead Joe, do what you need to do with that waste of carbon, you are immune. Do the nation a favor. High court says cool. Official act, of kindness to us.

[DJ Synikus Makisimus]

29. An investigation is as good as an indictment, innit?

You'd think the MAGAt faithful would get bored with the reality TV show that is the bumbling GOP Congressional hearings. Perhaps they have, I haven't seen the "ratings." MAGAGOP voters have the attention span of a goldfish. I guess as long as the press keeps covering them GOP politicians think it's working. How typically dull and unimaginative.

[Jilly_in_VA]

30. Oh sure

Go fish, you idiots.

[kacekwl]

31. Please do not honor

them with any reply at all. Just ignore the fools.

[Mike Niendorff]

32. Right on cue.

The bootlicking waterboys arrive, ready to demean their offices and abuse their positions of public trust.

What a shameful display of corruption.
