A last-minute deal between conservatives and GOP leaders in the House has averted votes expected Thursday on a measure to impeach the commissioner of the IRS.
Instead, IRS Commissioner John Koskinen will testify before Congress next week.
The conservative House Freedom Caucus celebrated the development as a win late Wednesday, as conservatives had long pushed GOP leaders for impeachment hearings against Koskinen. They accuse him of obstructing a congressional investigation into the treatment of tea party groups seeking tax exemptions.
But the agreement canceling the votes came only after conservatives themselves predicted that their impeachment resolution was going to get sidelined by Democratic and Republican opposition Thursday. So instead they settled for a hearing next Wednesday, which would result in an impeachment vote only after the November presidential election, if ever.
So the guy who's responsible for covering up Lois Learner's crimes and sneering at Congress won't get impeached, because the GOP is too scared of the Democrats being mean to them, so they're going to curl up into the fetal position and suck their thumb instead.
Fucking cowards. Fucking spineless, gutless, ball-less little cowards, shit-stains with no courage, pathetic fucking worms ever moving away from anything that might cause them to have to actually stand up for what they believe in.
The GOP needs to die. Trump might just well be the first step in killing it. Bravo, says I.
there are those who claim velcro was invented for nasa...i maintain it was invented to keep spineless elected criminals upright in their desk chairs.
ReplyDeleteYup, the Uni party rides again.
ReplyDeleteI used to have a representative with a YUGE pair of brass balls - Michelle Bachman, now I'm stuck with RINO Tom Emmer.
Trump is the destructor. He will end the choke hold of lawyers, career politicians, and the corrupt media. But this only happens if he is elected.
ReplyDeleteIf he is not, then it's useless apparatchiks until total system failure or civil war.
I have been a regular reader for months and it is very heartening to see you transform from a neverTrumper to a supporter. I was all for Trump from the start. The COUNTRY as well as the party needs the change so much that even though he is not perfect (who is) he is the person we need for the time we need him.
ReplyDeleteI see Trump as the anti-politician and I don't know about you but, I am so fucking tired of politicians telling me what to do, where to do it and then charge me for the privilege of doing so. I say FUCK politicians and their offspring - democrats. FUCK THEM ALL.

I don't think I've been a Never Trump guy. I wasn't his biggest fan, sure. He's not my first pick. But there's no way in hell I'm going to let Hillary win, and that means voting for Trump.
ReplyDeleteI knew it! I knew there would be no indictment. I hate being right about these things.
ReplyDeletethey are what the red Chinese used to call "running dogs" under the control of the "imperialist aggressor" I first read that in 1972
ReplyDeletethe gop are a pack of running dogs and they are under control, not by the People
