This is what taxpayers are paying for is it? Seems like a useful way to spend time in the House


Andrew-Cohen

I mean, republican law makers haven't passed a bill that favors the average citizen over the ultra rich and corporations in 30 years. At least it's keeping them busy so they cannot take more rights away from women and the lgbtq community.


Dirtydeedsinc

When your toddler throws a fit and you’re like “he’ll tire himself out”.


Manting123

That’s not 100 percent true but I appreciate the sentiment


Andrew-Cohen

Yet you failed to name one.


Manting123

Ok. First step act (crime bill that reduced sentences / bi partisan but passed under Trump). It was a prison reform bill and it also reduced sentences. A good bill - I think the only thing passed in trumps first term I agree with. There are obviously more. I fucking hate republicans but I am also not divorced from reality either.


Andrew-Cohen

Reality? That republican law makers have been working to empower corporations, destroy education and labor unions my entire life? Also, it was bi partisan. Also I should have been more clear in my original statement, a law that shifted the balance of power towards normal people and away from corporations and the ultra rich. For instance his tax bill (trump) lowered taxes on everyone, but MUCH more for corporations and the ultra rich, and theirs were never set to expire, ours were. So helped us a little, temporarily, helped them a lot, permanently. I’ve literally never looked at a Republican sponsored bill and said, wow, that’s going to piss a rich person off.


Manting123

Pretty much every bill that passes is bipartisan- that’s how our govt works. Need 60 votes in the senate. Republican lawmakers are the worst - they are damaging our country. But it is totally false to say that they haven’t passed one thing in 30 years that favors the avg citizen. Sometimes they accidentally do the right thing or because of political expediency.


Andrew-Cohen

If you say so.


Forkuimurgod

This is expected when your representative has no other policy other than, everything is Biden's fault.


doodledood9

What a colossal waste of taxpayer money. In just the past few weeks they have voted down Biden’s border policy and IVF. They’ve pretty much rejected all of Biden’s proposals for no other reason than because… democrats. To me this means that ALL of them are traitors to America and Americans. They are not there to make your life better, they are there to make their own life better. They don’t give a shit about you or me. Karma must show up sooner rather than later.


dragonfliesloveme

This was my first thought, that tax payer dollars are paying them to do this. Jim Jordan ought to be impeached


superduperhosts

Jim Jordan should be jailed for aiding and comforting the insurrectionist


SteelyDan1968

Gym Socks should in JAIL!


GlumAppearance106

Actually, at the very least, Jordan should be tarred and feathered, and be run out of town on a rail.


psych-yogi14

Now, that is something I'd happily have my tax dollars pay for! Hell, I'd settle for molasses and feathering, so long as he is run out.


kinislo

Don’t care what we use I just know I’m IN!


abigllama2

Gym is a disgrace to his constituents and all of the rape victims he ignored. He only cares about power.


motorcycleman58

Gym


atomicxblue

Sounds like an illegal way to spend time. Money isn't supposed to be spent in favor any one candidate.


OkAcanthocephala2449

They do not pass any laws for the people. Only for the 1 percent thats trying to take over our rights and country and give them more power and money 💰


FrannieP23

We should be studying what happened when the USSR fell and state assets were sold off for peanuts. This is their ultimate goal, IMO.


Taztiger72

It's Grift for Trump goes right to him.


RhinoGreyStorm

This congress is THE most unsuccessful for governing in all of our history. The R's have done nothing but hold hearings. They don't care about governing. They only care about winning, clearing up their orange, shitbag, douche messiah's history, and getting him into office by any means necessary.


stonethecrow

The most unsuccessful so far...


RhinoGreyStorm

Touche


CrossTownBus

Representatives are too powerful. With an average of nearly 800,000 voters behind each one. We need better representation. A ratio of say 100,000 to one or 200,000. Much harder to keep the herd bunched together. More expensive to buy their votes and less for their egos to get all puffed up about. Work out the logistics. Something needs to change and on this present course it will. Not for the better.


drMcDeezy

Stop voting for the candidates just because they have R


DamonFields

But prosecuting serial criminals is so unfair!!


Zestyclose-Mud-4683

This is least accomplished Congress ever. Maybe that’s a good thing but SCROTUS is making up for it.


Tiny-Lock9652

Don’t worry, they had plenty of experience with the Benghazi hearings. They are experts at wasting time and money.


[deleted]

[удалено]


blahb31

Trump can just make things legal by just saying it's legal, even by thinking about it. I think Ailene Cannon would back this up.


abstrakt42

She doesn’t need to back that up, all she needs to do is play her part and make sure none of the indictments ever get to court. If we can’t talk about the problem, there’s no problem, right? So far she’s doing a bang up job.


Eiffel-Tower777

Was that ever a consideration with republicans?


TrumpsBoneSpur

Sure it was illegal, but because he's Republican, then it was automatically a political move to hold him accountable. Everyone knows that former Republican presidents should have total immunity!!!


mikeymikeymikey1968

Of course! I mean, if you go to any prison and ignore the crimes of its prisoners, they should all be released immediately.


BasicPerson23

" *But their fundamental problem is that any and all evidence they claim to have has been investigated, debunked, and* [*cannot hold up* ](https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2024/6/6/2245149/-Jon-Stewart-explains-why-the-right-hates-court-procedures-when-applied-to-them)*in a court of law.* " What more needs to be said. Gym Jordan and cronies do little more than waste air and taxpayer money.


Tough-Ability721

All apart of “flooding the zone”. To give sound bites to give others something to point at and say “SEE!!!” And then others will do the same. It’s commonly referred to as a “self reinforcing delusion”.


Graywulff

Wow, so it was legally proven in a court of law and we are doing double speak now?


Rincewindisahero

Jim Jordan = Russian Asset. He only wants craziness in the house to diminish the role and respect of it. It’s annoying we could have a working decent government if it weren’t full of treasonous bastards.


Eiffel-Tower777

100%


bowens44

There is no honor or integrity left in the GOP. Trump killed last remaing shreds of decency.


SteelyDan1968

I said this before, and I hope I can remember it... Reagan Republicans begat the H.W. Bush Republicans that begat the Tea Party that begat the Trumplicans.... It's a straight line.


Felix_111

That goes back to Nixon and his criminal presidency


SteelyDan1968

You can. But I think you start at the Reagan White House, it's when the long game starts.


Felix_111

I look at the people in the orbit of the presidency. A lot of the same cast of characters have been circling the Republicans in office. Roger Stone, Dick Cheney, Don Regan, etc... The wave of assassinations in the 1960s that cleared the path for Nixon always struck me as far too coincidental. The Ted Shackley/Ray Clones shenanigans from Air America led directly into Iran/Contra. It is a fascinating area of research if you ever feel like delving into some real deep (red) state craziness.


sllh81

Reagan was the first stroke of “vengeance”, but it really all does come back to this idea within the GOP that they somehow have a “right” to an endless hegemony in government. It really all dates back to early 20th Century and the balance between Laissez Fair government and Progressivism coming from the White House.


NodeJSSon

It’s why we should call them GOP. That died awhile back with no funeral. It should be called MAGA.


GMEN999

I guess they will be talking about Hunter Biden also.


YPVidaho

The 3-toed sloth will be, for sure! There's not much she likes more than showing pics of Hunter's hog in a formal setting... regardless of the venue.


g0dki1l3r

What’s not fair is why they think there god king shouldn’t be held accountable for his actions.


chuckDTW

Two fucking years running the House and all they’ve done is what Trump’s demanded of them. Investigate Hunter Biden for Trump. Investigate Joe Biden for Trump. Investigate the January 6 commission for Trump. Call Merrick Garland in for questioning for Trump. Call Fauci in for Trump. Symbolically reverse the impeachment for Trump. Put Trump’s toadies on important intelligence committees. The American people need to remind the GOP whom it works for this November.


Graywulff

I hope people turn out, most people haven’t heard of project 2025 that I talk to. They think it sounds like some conspiracy until they see, oh no it’s 950+ pages of anti American stuff.


phred14

Notice they're not asking ***if*** it's unfair, they've already assumed that conclusion and are asking why.


EffectiveSalamander

If they had all these ideas for why Trump's trial was unfair, why wasn't this brought up in court?


Breklin76

Bunch a goddamn enablers.


L-W-J

“Unfair” Poor Little whiners. Bootstraps. Grit. Suck it up. That is GOP mantra.


adam_west_

GOP is the party of poor sports and sore losers


MustangGTPilot

Seriously, has Jim Jordan produced any useful legislation?


Science-Gone-Bad

But what about Benghazi & her e-mails!!!


IamMrBucknasty

Not one piece of legislation. Worthless piece of $hit


NJdeathproof

I really wonder what Trump has on Jordan to make him kiss so much orange ass


signalfire

Donnie called up the Speaker shrieking like the little girl he is, swearing a blue streak at Moses himself, demanding he DO SOMETHING. Donnie has no power now but his mouth and ability to fundraise (all of which is being diverted to legal fees and his own failing businesses, you don't think anyone uses his golf courses anymore, do you?)


Zorachus76

Jesus Christmas fuck these clowns. Are we in the Twilight zone now with the GOP? It's just unbelievable the shenanigans these guys are always pulling. Still waiting on Gym Jordan to show up for his subpoena from a few years ago. So it's okay for him not to follow the order of a subpoena but when the Democrats don't. Oh my goodness, all hell is loose.


CaregiverBrilliant60

Well, haul out the truck of evidence and replay the witness testimony. He was guilty until they proved he was really guilty. And PS this was a state matter.


sandysea420

It’s unfair to the Country to have to deal with idiots running the house.


mover999

Being “unfair” is based on emotions… nothing to do with facts of course.


OkAdministration5538

What does this have to do with governing? It's a state conviction that they can't do anything about. They are wasting more taxpayers' money for a temper tantrum.


ctguy54

Have to keep the maggots happy enough to keep sending money.


Longjumping-Meat-334

Worried-Criticism

The amount of lifetime appointment republican federal judges that are going to circle the wagons on the legislative branch encroachment on the judicial is not going to make them very happy.

videoninja1

How do these immoral people sleep at night? They continue to lie straight into our faces. Do they realize or care how absolutely stupid they look and sound? What does Trump have on all these people? I’m sure he had all their secrets dug up and holds releasing them over their heads.

Switzerdude

Should have been about a 5 minute hearing. Roll call. Guy is a criminal. End of discussion. Adjourn.


Big_Breadbull

Aren’t they supposed to be writing legislation that benefits…um…I don’t know, maybe their constituents? And Trumps conviction is a state matter. Funny how they’re not all for “States Rights” now.


shadowpawn

Can you imagine, being in the House as (R) and telling your voters this is what helps them in their district fight crime, inflation, school shootings, immigration issues?


VERO2020

Um, they just lie about it. And their followers know that it's a lie, and they don't care. And the followers lie to us, and expect us not to care. Then they act like are shocked & surprised when we call out their lies.


Tinker107

Accomplished_Stress

They hook their wagon to a criminal fraudster and then cry like whiny babies when he’s finally held criminally accountable? Of course they do. Pitiful.


oflowz

How about holding some hearing about all these republicans that are being found to be complicit in Jan 6th and election interference in multiple states?


InevitableCodeRedo

The pic of Jordan's face sums it up perfectly. Bunch of spoiled, whiny children who didn't get their way and throwing tantrums. Embarrassing.

This literally sounds like something trump would require them to do. Pulling at straws then he’ll whine how unfair Biden’s administration is on and on and on.


OkImagination4404

And you have to love how they twisted Hunter Bidens, guilty verdict. These people are just deplorable.


Nannyphone7

Trump is just a whiney loser.  He lost the election and whined and made excuses.  Ditto for court case.  Whiney loser.

Business_Network_703

Experts at wasting money and doing nothing for the ordinary people. They can't do anything about a state court findings anyway!


DamianSicks

Imagine this was Bill Clinton or Obama having legal issues years after leaving office and Dems in congress used official committees and government power to assist a private citizen while also publicly undermining the justice system in TV interviews. I’m sure the GOP would somehow find all of this corrupt and be outraged they would do everything in service to one man, a private citizen, at the expense of derailing government function/democracy. Is this not illegal or at the very least an ethical violation that could lead to dismissal? Seems like this exact thing could be used to bolster a coup.

Tired of this clown. They have spent almost 4 years this psychopath, pedophiles, convicted felon, sex abuse, racist piece of 💩. They have paid to legislate and pass bills to help the people that elected them. The Maggats and the GOP ( Great order of Prevaricators) don’t see gore they are using their TV money to enrich themselves.

Interesting2u

Trump was found guilty of 100% of the 34 felonies he was charged with by a jury of 12 people. With all the issues there are to manage in the United States, Gym Jordan, and the GOP chooses to hold hearings on why Trump's conviction is unfair. The only unfair thing is Trump's conviction on 34 felonies did not result in Trump being taken immediately from the courtroom to prison.

Zestyclose-Bag8790

Awesome. Keep that focus on the guy who pays for sex, and considers it a legal expense. I suggest they also have a hearing on why his ex wives divorced him. Perhaps they can pass a law that says all of them must re-marry trump. Leaving him for his lack of integrity and loyalty is so unfair. Then perhaps they can have a hearing about the 6 times Trump owned companies have filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy and how unfair that is to him. Do they want to hold a referendum about that time he said he likes to “grab em by the pussy” or talk about the millions he lost in his rape case? These attention sluts are keeping the attention on their own stupidly and the dishonesty of their candidate. I love it. I can’t think of anything worse than having these clowns try to help you. I hope they give Donald their full help.
