The continuing resolution, they said, must also include provisions that “address the unprecedented weaponization of the Justice Department & FBI” & it must “end the Left’s cancerous woke policies in the Pentagon.”

The #FarRight House Freedom Caucus announced Monday that its members will not support a #stopgap #funding bill to keep the government running past the end of next month unless several of its *conservative* policy priorities on #immigration & other issues are attached.

With #Republicans already pressing for deep #SpendingCuts & #SocialPolicy reqs that have alienated #Democrats, they will likely have only 4 votes in their own party to spare, meaning just a handful of defections could sink the bills.

They know the indictments will weaken Trump among Independents, Democrats, and a smattering of Republicans—enough to matter to Trump’s election prospects. The louder they bellow, the more frightened they are."

In her time in #Congress so far, Rep #AnnaPaulinaLuna has introduced six measures. 5/6 of them are about Rep #AdamSchiff. Sounds like she’s a bit obsessed.

Audience members were wearing T-shirts saying rioters had been ‘murdered by Capitol police.’ In the hallway, keeping the peace, were two Capitol Police officers, guarding the people accusing them of murder.”

A meeting room in the Capitol visitor center was arranged to appear like a committee room, w/ lawmakers facing the witnesses. Gaetz advertised the ‘field hearing’ as part of how ‘the 118th Congress is investigating the weaponization of the federal government.’

Matt Gaetz and the Republicans have no desire to do any work for the American people. They are always hollering about Hollywood elites but they share the love of performing with them. It’s all about Performative politics with these nut jobs. #performative #performativepolitics #speaker #congress #houseofrepresentatives #politics
