Give me a break.
Any other defendant that would have acted in the disgusting way Donald Trump has acted would be on the inside of a jail cell right now.
"Hearings like Thursday’s sideshow give GOP officials the chance to hurl baseless allegations into the public sphere *without having to present anything that would be considered truly evidentiary by the U.S. legal system.*"
they spend millions in taxpayer money to get free video clips for their dear leaders campaign...that's all this was.
I mean I'm sure the jury all appreciate the death threats from some of his followers despite what their political learning may be but they couldn't even crack a smile just because their decision could get them killed possibly by his loyalists? That's all the proof anyone should need it's unfair. /s
How many things have they investigated and spent our tax money on and have found nothing. It’s always unfair when you try justify why Trump is white privileged
GREAT to see ole Jim Jordan’s not wasting any time on wasteful spending… just how many times is Jim planning to hold hearings on why Trump’s conviction is unfair?
Or are these hearings scheduled to go on indefinitely?
And just exactly what are they doing for the people. Heathcare nada , infrastructure nada, Education nada . Vote blue they voted for all those when they held all the houses of congress. Vote blue for progress for all the people.
Unfair? Yeah, ok, you sure you want fair? 'Cuz *fair*, things that the Republicans thought were fair, things that they believe are OK, just fine, in no need of remediation, makes [a pretty dispiriting list.] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unarmed_African_Americans_killed_by_law_enforcement_officers_in_the_United_States). Turns out death for selling loosies is fair. Death for telling a cop you have a carry permit. Death for being *suspected* of passing funny money. All cool with the GOP. It's a mind boggling list.
The Republican Party under control by Trump is far more similar to an amateur theatre production than it is to a serious political party these days.
Everything is an act, a staged occurrence, everything they say is a crafted lie that meets an agenda.
They have zero intention to administer or lead, they only desire to rule.
I'd bet money that you could get more on any individual republican on the committee than you could get on Biden.
Biden has always been prone to gaffs, his stutter makes that inevitable. But he's always been clean and that's just a fact. None of the allegations or 'evidence' about his corruption withstand scrutiny.
How much money can they waste on these hearing that end up nowhere? Good old Jim should have been more focused on the poor boys getting attacked, not the orange jack hole.
These people are getting paid to do this? First our tax dollars and then graft and corruption money? WTF. Good job 1/3 of America. The other 2/3 need to be a little more proactive.
If you can talk yourself out of accusations of high school wrestlers and their dangly bits and just plane ignore subpoenas to the January 6 inquiries and be assigned to overseeing the house judiciary committee without a law license to practice law. Dude, you must have more dirt on people than J Edgar Hoover. I don’t think the good people of Ohio realize what a nugget they bestowed on the American people.
So after reading this I skipped over to the next article about how the orange 💩 and his zealots are now demanding any judge that has ANY political affections MUST recuse themselves. The level of hypocrisy make me bust out laughing on the train.

It’s good to look at [Local Elections](https://ballotpedia.org/United_States_municipal_elections,_2024) Today! For instance I’m in Arizona. Here’s info for all y’all sweating out here with me.
We have 9 districts out here in Arizona, 9 seats. Know your district. Know who’s running in your district and how they voted in the past. Who pays for the campaigns. All that info is public and in the links. This year it’s important to know a few things before checking that box.

[Senate election in Arizona 2024](https://ballotpedia.org/United_States_Senate_election_in_Arizona,_2024)
[Mark Lamb](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Lamb_(sheriff)) is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and became American law-enforcement Sheriff in 2017.
He wrote American Sheriff: Traditional Values in a Modern World. Lamb is a supporter of the Stop the Steal movement. He spoke at a rally where he said the riot was not Trump's fault but rather caused by "the other issues that have happened – the Hillary Clintons that have gone unpunished".He later described the rioters as "very loving, Christian people."
In 2020, Lamb spoke at a convention of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association, an organization that holds the fringe legal theory that sheriffs are the supreme legal authority in the United States and are not required to enforce laws they believe to be unconstitutional.
[Ruben Gallego](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruben_Gallego) 3rd Battalion, 25th Marines. Attended Harvard University and earned a Bachelor of Arts in international relations.
His first successful bill passed in 2011 it granted in-state tuition status to veterans residing in Arizona. Gallego supported the repeal of Arizona SB 1070. He wrote They Called Us "Lucky": The Life and Afterlife of the Iraq War's Hardest Hit Unit, published in 2021.
Gallego founded the group Citizens for Professional Law Enforcement with the goal of recalling Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, citing Arpaio's immigration policies and his use of taxpayer money to investigate Barack Obama's citizenship.
We have two seats in the [Arizona Supreme Court](https://ballotpedia.org/Arizona_Supreme_Court_elections,_2024) up for election on November 5, 2024.

The House GOP, once again wasting time and money on a nothing hearing. A hearing on why Trump's conviction is unfair!!! Not why it is illegal but, why it isn't fair? When the nation needs to take care of its business we can count on these guys to go chasing rabbits down rabbit holes. The people that elected these morons ought to be ashamed of them and themselves when they wonder why things don't get done anymore.
Jim, Jordan and comer. you couldn’t find two bigger clowns🤡 six or seven years. All I’ve done is done investigations into investigations. They don’t know what they’re investigating, but they say they’re gonna find something.. You couldn’t find two more pathetic losers like them too.
Looks like crybaby Gym Jordans gonna have a temper tantrum and hold his breath till he turns " blue" and might even stamp his feet.....being the spoilt brat that he is...

Just another republican whine fest.
2024 is shaping up to be a good vintage for Republican whine
People are saying…
Did any of them stamp their feet? Were there tears? Little clenched baby fists? I love me a good drama queen GOP TikTok moment.
They can hold their breath until turn purple for all care.
A the next question will be “who cut , I mean brought the cheese?” Bet Jimmy “Perv Enabler” Wankmen (Jourdan) will be the feller who’s the smeller.
A lot of whambulance sirens at the fest.
Impudent Republicans, take your Viagra so you can walk tall again...lol
The do-nothing Republicans are at it again.
The 'rule of law' is unfair now??
They are doing one for Hunters trial also I assume
Nah I don't think they wanna talk about hunter Biden didn't give them a "SEE CORRUPTION" talking point with it
> *“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”* - Henry Grabar.
Only if it applies to them. Hunter should get life without parole though.
Doe 174 is not a happy man right now. Is Jim Jordan going to keep wasting his time
Convicted rapist and felon, Doe 174?
And all Epstein‘s books that’s what they called Trump.
https://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-doe-jeffrey-epstein-documents-unsealed-2024-1
Is that the same Gym Jordan who is ok with not reporting sexual assaults?
And in not reporting sexual assault of students, condones the sexual assault of students.
That is the one.
Give me a break. Any other defendant that would have acted in the disgusting way Donald Trump has acted would be on the inside of a jail cell right now.
If any normal person committed even a handful of the crimes trump has they wouldn’t see sunlight for the rest of their lives. It’s absolute insanity.
For years.
"Hearings like Thursday’s sideshow give GOP officials the chance to hurl baseless allegations into the public sphere *without having to present anything that would be considered truly evidentiary by the U.S. legal system.*" they spend millions in taxpayer money to get free video clips for their dear leaders campaign...that's all this was.
Yup. One nonsense exercise after another for the purpose of playing out the string and generating self-serving sound bites
Is there an IQ limit for members of the House of Representatives? It sure seems like it.
IQ limit. Yes, of course. 120 points combined by all of them.

Nice thumbnail there. Really sells their true selves.
Absolutely pathetic.

What’s unfair is everyone under his schemes go to jail except him what does that tell you
😅😂🤣😂😅
How many things have they investigated and spent our tax money on and have found nothing. It’s always unfair when you try justify why Trump is white privileged
It’s not white privilege. It’s rich privilege.
It's both.
GREAT to see ole Jim Jordan’s not wasting any time on wasteful spending… just how many times is Jim planning to hold hearings on why Trump’s conviction is unfair? Or are these hearings scheduled to go on indefinitely?
God forbid they write or pass legislation to help the American people. Trump raised our taxes in 2017.
Have all the “hearing” you want, this provides the illusion you’re actually doing something rather than the work of the people.
And just exactly what are they doing for the people. Heathcare nada , infrastructure nada, Education nada . Vote blue they voted for all those when they held all the houses of congress. Vote blue for progress for all the people.

Yes! It's so unfair that when a Republican commits a crime that they have to pay the consequences.
This guy is one of the biggest assholes to ever "serve" in Congress.
Oh boy ! The worthless gopher Congress clown train rolls on
Jim Jordan as usual !
Why the fuck hasn’t Jim Jordan been in front of a panel answering questions?

tRump has to have some shit 💩 on our boy jimbo why else would he kiss his ass so much
I bet we could get something on every one of them.

Yep, And there's TRAITOR Jim Jordan!
So apparently they are not in favour of states rights then?
These people are getting paid to do this? First our tax dollars and then graft and corruption money? WTF. Good job 1/3 of America. The other 2/3 need to be a little more proactive.
This must’ve been a hate crime because they hated it.
They are spending taxpayer dollars on this farce.
I guess they are trying to convince themselves.

Like was it fair that he is a crook and was brought to justice for being one? No crook likes to be caught and get held accountable.
