No, sorry dude, she shouldn't be able to reject any republican, else it's not bipartisan. Why do you think we would want them on the commission to begin with?

Think. Because they have been and would ask the correct questions which Pelosi wants to avoid, that's why. Thus it is NOT bipartisan; bill or no bill. Do you honestly not see that? Stop the BS act pretending this is going to be bipartisan. We know better and so do you.

What a joke, you seem to know nothing but have no comments too low for use to protect those who actively tried to overturn our government for the glory of the retched fool you helped slither into the oval office.. best solution is hang ever one of them.. right on the white house lawn as your kind so wanted to to do what a fine president Obama displeased you by being of dark skin..

The only thing "going on" is the desperate republicans willing to go to any extrem to prevent an investigation which could well show the complicity of the fools who kissed the ring of trumps finger as his attempt destroy the country failed like so much of his miserable existence..

Who is preventing an investigation nimrod? The FBI have the guys and have had them for a very long time, have they not?? What are they doing/ Twiddling their thumbs? Get real. Prosecute them, indict them, hang them, what ever. Go for it.

But you, stop protecting the dems who ignored the lack of security and ignored the offers of national guard.

'A bridge too far': Enraged House Republicans demand Kevin McCarthy punish Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger
YouTube/screen grab
House Republicans are pushing Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy to punish Reps. Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney — by revoking their other committee assignments or reprimanding them — as punishment for serving on a select committee investigating the J*** 6 i**********n.

CNN reports that the push to punish Cheney and Kinzinger gained steam Sunday after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi appointed Kinzinger to serve on the select committee — and he accepted.

"Initially, most rank-and-file Republicans were content to let Cheney serve without much of a fight, but Kinzinger's addition has changed the conversation and has put a new level of pressure on McCarthy," the network reports. "While the loudest cries have come from members of the hard-right Freedom Caucus, sources say that the sentiment has started to spread beyond the hard-line crew."

One GOP member said "there's a lot" of Republicans behind the push, adding that "supporting Pelosi's unprecedented move to reject McCarthy's picks was a bridge too far."

Another added: "Plenty of people wondering the same things. If they are accepting appointments from Nancy Pelosi rather than the GOP, haven't they already effectively left? Perhaps they should ask Speaker Pelosi for committee assignments?"

Pelosi appointed Kinzinger to the select committee, which is scheduled to meet for the first time this week, after rejecting two of McCarthy's picks, Reps. Jim Banks of Indiana and Jim Jordan of Ohio. McCarthy responded by pulling his other se******ns.

CNN notes that while McCarthy could theoretically remove Cheney and Kinzinger from their other committees, Pelosi could then simply reappoint them since, as speaker, she controls committee membership.
"It would speak volumes if he took away their committee assignments for upholding their oath to protecting our democracy," Kinzinger spokeswoman Maura Gillespie said.

Free speech lives here.
No not there , here.

Questions like:

Were you aware of the FBI information regarding possible trouble on J** 6th which they reported to Nancy Pelosi several days before?

Were you aware that President Trump offered to have the National Guard there several days prior to J** 6th??

Who is directly and ultimately responsible for security at the Capital building??

Etc.

Etc.

Because they "couldn't get to the other side" without committing perjury or sideshow antics.

'WHY"...Should this " NOT BE DONE"?

What does Pelosi do to *punish those that do not follow party lines in "her" *C*******t, *Socialist...*ANYTHING BUT DEMOCRAT PARTY?}....Turnabout is "fair play"? { EH ? }

I guess, this "Pelosi action"...merely *further confirms the case for *removal of Nasty Pelosi, from her Congressional seat? { She cannot handle mature responsibility}

No, she passed a bill empowering a bi partisan independent commission to the senate where republicans k**led it with the filibuster. She only rejected two republicans from the select committee who are nothing but clowns sent to create a circus atmosphere.

Pelosi is from San Francisco where in the 1849 Gold Rush to California there were Kangaroo Courts without number. She is carrying on a great San Francisco tradition.

The commission she's put together is to find the t***h of what happened on the 6th. Republicans she denied are hard core trump supporters who not only forwarded the idea of the "big lie" and don't want the t***h to be told. She was right denying them.
Republicans had their chance to load the commission with anyone they wanted and refused the investigation. Now they want to say who can conduct the investigation. BULL they had their chance, suck it up and stop all the crying and postering.
