Let the House hearings on the false ‘insurrection’ of Jan. 6 begin

It is not that House Republicans are merely lukewarm in their support of former President Trump and his MAGA program, and therefore, according to the instruction of Machiavelli, in The Prince, will fail in helping this innovator overcome the fierce opposition of the Deep State. House Republicans are pathetic in their flabby pretense to help Mr. Trump drain the swamp.

The latest instance of likely House Republican ineptitude is revealed from the concatenation of two developments, in Washington, DC., and at the Tennessee State Capitol in Nashville. In Washington, a defense attorney for the Proud Boys has charged that undercover operatives, perhaps as many as 40, were involved in the Jan. 6 commotion at the Capitol, and likely served as agents provocateur. (No wonder, the Capitol doors were opened to admit a part of the throng.)

Meanwhile, in Nashville, the Tennessee State House expelled two members for disruptive behavior on the House floor during an unruly gun protest. The operative part of the account in The New York Times on the ouster of the two legislators -- an account sympathetic to the legislators -- appeared twelve paragraphs into the story:

"The lawmakers who were expelled readily agreed that [their] outburst violated the House's rules of conduct...."

And the Tennessee House took appropriate action. Tennessee state legislator Gino Bulso pointed out that failure to have acted against the unruly legislators would have encouraged further future attempts at "'mutiny on the House floor.'"

Bravo, Mr. Bulso. House Republicans in Washington should invite you to speak to them on maintaining the processes of orderly government in a legislative chamber.

And now comes strong indications from one of the political trials taking place in the nation's capital that Jan. 6 was a put-up job, orchestrated by the leftist enemies of democratic government. Consider how Jan. 6 was put to use by the Pelosis, the Schumers, even the McConnells -- to destroy for good and all the political future of Donald J Trump and his MAGA reform movement.

Yes, Kevin McCarthy, Steve Scalise, Elise Stefanik, Jim Jordan et al. could explain that House Republicans lacked the votes to restrain Pelosi and her ilk from running roughshod, in 2021, over House democratic processes via her rogue panel on political heresy.

But the American people have now handed the majority to House Republicans -- and the House GOP leadership has no excuse, other than political ineptitude, for failure to immediately hold hearings on what Dr. John Dunn calls the Reichstag Fire-like use of agents provocateur to manipulate the scene at the Capitol, January 6, 2021, for the purpose of overthrowing the...

The financial records of the Biden family have been requested by the House Oversight Committee through subpoenas issued to several banks.

Bank of America, Cathay Bank, JPMorgan Chase, HSBC USA N.A., and Mervyn Yan, a former business associate of Hunter Biden, have all received subpoenas.

Comer slammed Democrats who have been trying to protect Biden throughout the process. “Ranking Member Raskin has again disclosed Committee’s subpoenas in a cheap attempt to thwart cooperation from other witnesses,” the House Chair stated.

“Given his antics with the first bank subpoena, the American people and media should be asking what information Ranking Member Raskin is trying to hide this time. No one should be fooled by Ranking Member Raskin’s games. We have the bank records, and the facts are not good for the Biden family.”

The subpoenas to the banks will hopefully provide clarity to investigators with information about the financial activities associated with the Biden family. A subpoena could reveal more evidence of suspicious transactions, financial irregularities, or other potentially incriminating information that could be used in this ongoing investigation.

Chairman James Comer and Oversight Committee Republicans have been investigating the Biden family’s domestic and international business dealings for some time now. Comer seems determined to find out if their activities compromised U.S. national security and the president’s ability to lead with impartiality.

Members of the Biden family have a pattern of peddling access to the highest levels of government to enrich themselves, often to the detriment of...
