Pelosi Rejects Jim Banks and Jim Jordan From January 6th Committee, McCarthy Responds By Pulling All 5

First, the GOP were foolish, specifically Kevin McCarthy, for agreeing to put any republicans on the January 6th investigative committee in the first place.  It was, and is, transparently obvious that the intent of Speaker Pelosi’s committee was to establish a political framework for  the 2022 election cycle.  Even Reuters pointed this out when they admitted the intent of the committee was to “complicate Republicans’ efforts to win majority control of the House in the 2022 congressional elections.”

Second, there is good news in this echo-chamber move by Pelosi to reject Republican committee members.  The fact that Nancy Pelosi would block any specific members from participating only speaks to the political intent of the committee’s central purpose.  Democrats have a habit of overplaying their hand; however, Republicans are weak in their ability to call it out with the eloquence and exposure it deserves.

In an extreme power move, Nancy Pelosi rejected Representative Jim Jordan (OH) and Representative Jim Banks (IN) from their appointment to the J6 committee. {Read Pelosi Statement Here}: “Monday evening, the Minority Leader recommended 5 Members to serve on the Select Committee. I have spoken with him this morning about the objections raised about Representatives Jim Banks and Jim Jordan and the impact their appointments may have on the integrity of the investigation”, said Pelosi.

In response to Pelosi rejecting Banks and Jordan, the first time Republican committee leaders have been rejected from a sitting sub-committee, House Leader Kevin McCarthy pulled all of the Republican members. [Video Below]

The only way to win at this scheme is not to play; to go on the attack; to continually point out how intensely political the motives are, then start applying massive amounts of ridicule upon the House Democrats.

Laugh at them.  The media will attack.

Ignore it.

Laugh at them some more.  The media will attack.

Again, ignore it.

When the media asked to comment on any part of the sham committee outcome, blow it off.  Stand united as a Republican Party in just brushing off anything that stems as an outcome of the committee by referencing prior ridicule, and applying more brief ridicule… then, “next question“?

Get a similar question?… attack on a policy point by pivoting to a current issue:

Ex: …”The Democrats are going to lose their seats because they hate this country, and every action they have taken shows how much they despise the people of our nation.  Take a look at the unsecured border; illegal aliens flowing through while Democrats claim to care about COVID spread?  Take a look at our schools in crisis; kids isolated, parents frustrated, the teachers union running the show and education collapsing.  These Democrats hate the middle-class and ordinary Americans; need proof, take a look at your grocery bill. These people you call Democrats, focused on this committee are entirely detached from you, me and the American people.  They hate the working class; just look at the prices you are paying at the gas pump.  Face it, they hate you, and the American electorate is going to show-up in massive numbers in 2022 and remove them.  Next question”… 

Ridicule them, constantly.  Attack them, and hold them accountable to their own standard.

If House Republicans want the fight, then fight.  Fight with ferocity and intensity.

Fight like they are the third monkey on the ramp to Noah’s ark.  Yes, it is that serious.
