Jan. 6 Panel Refers McCarthy, Three Other Republicans for Ethics Violations

22. The committee is divided equally

Regardless of which party controls the chamber. It's four of each party, no matter what.

The current committee consists of:

Democrats

Chairwoman Susan Wild, Pennsylvania

Dean Phillips, Minnesota

Veronica Escobar, Texas

Mondaire Jones, New York

r thugs

Acting Ranking Member Michael Guest, Mississippi

Dave Joyce, Ohio

John H. Rutherford, Florida

Kelly Armstrong, North Dakota

Not that it will make any difference who's in charge of the House. I doubt that one of the r thugs on the committee would flip on any of their colleagues.

But it is important to understand how the committee's composition is independent of which party is in charge of the House.
