  1. Why is everyone always yielding, including to themselves? Weird rules they've got there.

  2. That's my new Republican Congressman at 0:26 seen smiling on the left, Mike Lawler. Go Mike!

  3.  @herlanrulz  Your comment makes no sense. Do you understand what freedom of speech is? It means she is not getting criminally charged for making her ignorant statements. But there is no Constitutional right to serve on the Congressional Committee of one's choice.

  4.  @pj4340  You wrote above that you were sincerely curious, and I took you at your word. "Your number one was just Marjorie Greene (sic)", besides being false, sure doesn't sound like you really want an answer. I can easily respond, but not if you are here you waste my time.

  5.  @pj4340  Why did you write "Your number one was Marjorie Greene"? What does that even mean? MTG said some absolutely batshit crazy stuff, mostly before she was elected. She retracted and apologized for much of it. She never actually claimed that "Jewish Space Lasers" started the California wildfires; that quote is wildly distorted. Ultimately, no one believes she is actually anti-Semitic, just wacko. In US history, committees were staffed by members put on there by their own parties. Then two years ago Democrats did something unprecedented: They began removing Republicans from a bunch of committees, based upon pretty much nothing. The Republicans warned that if the Democrats played that game, they would regret it once the GOP got the majority, but the Democrats ignored that and yanked a bunch of Republicans off committees anyway. Everyone knew what was coming next, once the Republicans gained the House. The three Democrats targeted for removal from committees by the GOP are legitimate problems: Omar, an America hater and raging anti-Semite who had no business being on the Foreign Affairs committee, plus Eric Swalwell and Adam Schiff, removed from the Intelligence Committee after the former was involved with a Chinese spy and the latter lied repeatedly for two years about information he falsely claimed to have received from his committee. Turns out that the Republican payback was mild compared to the misdeeds of the Democrats. In politics, weakness is not niceness: it's deadly. If you let the other party break all the rules and don't care, then they will destroy you.

  6.  @ow3wells  It was child's play as compared to six months of Democrat Party-supported rioting that preceded it and which led to it.

  8.  @pj4340  1. The Democrats started this mess by breaking historical precedent and kicking Republicans off committees two years ago. 2. Omar is a radical, an anti-American and an anti-Semite.

  9.  @pj4340  May I request that you proofread your comments before publishing? They are quite difficult to decipher. Ilhan Omar was removed from one of her committees, and left to stay on the rest. The Republicans also removed two more Democrats, both from one committee - Adam Schiff and Eric Swalwell. Schiff repeatedly lied to the public about information taken from hearings on the Intelligence Committee. Swalwell had a romantic relationship with what turned out to be a Chinese spy. The reason you didn't hear about Schiff and Swalwell is because both are white males, and the Democrats decided to go their usual political route of accusing Republicans of being racist. The removal of Schiff and Swalwell does not support their chosen narrative. The Republican response in the 118th Congress to what the Democrats had done in the 117th was not only not unfair, it was actually far too nice. The two Republican representatives (Greene and Gosar) were stripped of all their committee assignments, not just one each, and for far less than any of these three Democrats did. (And the Democrats also refused to seat Jim Banks and Jim Jordan on the Jan 6th committee.) The Republicans are being far too easy in their response, presumably forced to do so by a media that lies with impunity and which the Republicans know will support the false Democrat narrative.

  11.  @immorganstl  Your comment doesn't even begin to make sense. Elections are not about democracy? You think socialism is? What planet are you on?

  12.  @immorganstl  Lol! Your ignorance is palpable. Go move to Venezuela or Cuba - you'll love it there.

  13.  @immorganstl  Centrally run economies are just the best, right? All those people trying to flee the USSR, Cuba, East Berlin, Venezuela, etc, risking their lives to do so, they must have been really crazy, I'm sure. Wow. The denial with you is strong. Well, whatever floats your boat. Keep arguing with reality if that's what makes you happy.

  14.  @immorganstl  In a democracy, worker-owned businesses are an option. Under socialism, they are compulsory. You sound very young.

  15.  @immorganstl  Who's "we"? Are you living in Cuba or Venezuela?

  16. Your anti-Semitism rivals that of Ilhan Omar. A pox on both your houses.
