    They are no doubt investigating it, with a more narrow purpose.

    They were republicans, it doesn't matter who picked them.

    I rebutted this in the OP, and you are ignoring it, so I will repeat it, for your edification:

    McCarthy's selections were individuals who, in past select committee assignments, showed that their only intent was to make a circus out of the proceedings. When the rubber hits the road, there were only two who would not fall into this category, Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.

    No,

    They were republicans, it doesn't matter who picked them.

    Your contention that 'she picked persons that think like she does', isn't quite right. They were republicans who voted with Trump the vast majority of the time, so that hardly means they 'think like she did'.

    However, in the sense of being objective and being interested in the mission of the committee, that is a requirement, of course.

    She has every right to reject carnival barkers like Jordan.

    That is the opposite of partisan, and your position is the partisan one.

    Its doesn't matter. You claim was that it was bipartisan. It isn't if the other party didn't pick their circus. Only the left got to pick their circus. Its not a bipartisan circus. Plus there are only two repulicans and a lot of democrats.

    @Patricio Da Silva

    If you don’t think this is all politically motivated, there’s no point in talking about it.

    The naïveté is stunning, and calling it naïveté is being generous.

    It wasn't a coup OBVIOUSLY or else the psychopath would be the first dictator of this land since King George. It was an attempted coup (there is a difference you know). For example, the JFK assassination was a successful coup.

    But you're absolutely right, it had to be one of the worst coup attempts ever. Then again look who led it, bright as a pile of bricks.

    You're mistaken, I wasn't characterizing the average intellectual level of Trump worshipers. I was talking about any fool being able to recognize an attempted coup. It really doesn't take too many properly firing neurons.

    Showing how idiotic Schiff is will do that.
    Asking questions of Schiff's witnesses that exposed Schiff as a liar will do that
    Having Republicans on the committee that have exposed Fauci as a fraud will do that

    Hence why they don't want any Republicans that will hold them accountable is pretty obvious and why nobody is even interested in this partisan committee findings.

    There are no Trump worshippers. Just a whole lot of Republicans that are fed up with Democrat and neocon business as usual. Trump at least understood that.And spoke at least to those issues we care about and tried to fix it, in spite of near overwhelming resistance from the aforementioned and created a vast amount of fear and loathing from both as well as our tyrannical, runaway bureaucracy.

    It is partisan and it will be partisan when the Republicans strip all members of that Commission from Committee assignments next year when they take over the House.

    Yeah Trump worshipers are generally delusional. Some believe JFK Jr. is still alive and some believe the Qanon lunacy and they all believe the election was stolen because the nutcase said so. And they don't even believe they are Trump worshipers among many other issues they have. But thanks for attempting to enlighten me, I wasn't born yesterday.

    It doesn't matter who picked them.
    That sentiment alone demonstrates the political farce in which Democrats and Neocons are full coconspirators.

    But I take it you're willing to change it to install a psychopath as a dictator. Good job that's a worthy endeavor. The system has been rigged for decades and when over 70 million people want what I just described it can be a bit difficult for me to change it to something resembling normalcy.

    If you don't or can't recognize a deranged psychopath from his words and/or actions and actually believe you need to have a Phd or professional help to figure it out you are in serious trouble. Sorry there is nothing more that I want to discuss with someone with such a basic disability. That would be an exercise in futility on my part. This is why I try to avoid discussions about Trump with Trump worshipers.

    You started a post about your refusal to consume partisan propaganda, followed by rebleating partisan propaganda. NO reasonable person would consider what happened a coup attempt. This group was butthurt over their team losing and had a riot. This is a common occurrence in Los Angeles after a Lakers game.

    This group was equipped to seize control of a Walmart. (Maybe)
