House GOP Hits The Launch Button On Its Most Corrupt Scheme
Talking Points Memo ^ | 1/25/23 | David Kurtz

Posted on 01/25/2023 9:20:27 AM PST by EBH

Our First Look At Jim Jordan’s Bogus Subcommittee Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced the members of Rep. Jim Jordan’s already notorious subcommittee that is running interference for coup plotters, Trump, and his own members under federal investigation by targeting the Justice Department, FBI, and other “Deep State” players:

A few notes:

Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA), whose phone was seized by the FBI as part of its Jan. 6 investigation and who has insisted he’s not too compromised to serve on the subcommittee, didn’t make the cut.

Democrats haven’t named their members of the subcommittee yet.

Politico reports that McCarthy plans to introduce a resolution to expand the number of subcommittee members and that Democrats will get a proportional increase in their representation on the subcommittee.

With a propagandistic name like the “Select Subcommittee on Weaponization of the Federal Government,” the subcommittee is tipping its hand, but that’s enough to fool some news outlets, our old friend Brian Beutler noted last week:

OK...maybe this needed the Smokey Backroom?

Holy Cow! I don't know which is more shocking of what passes for journalism these days. This is not even mudslinging!

And for even more eye opening things read the comments at the site!

This is what we are up against folks.

This is the level of outright propaganda we are facing.

Guess we are too polite to stomach it?

Based on my interpretation of the language in this piece, they are really really not happy and you know what they say about being over the target.

‘Bogus’?
‘Notorious’?

It was just created?
They don’t even pretend to be in the slightest bit objective. Couldn’t they at least wait until the committee does something first before using their propaganda-speak?

This is not even to mention the fact that you’d think objective and open-minded citizens would want to know if they government was being weaponized against them.

But this is the opposite of curiosity and open mindedness. It’s instant rejection.

Because only an idiot wants to read cheerleader stories. The trash was out there but there is absolutely nothing better than knowing the thoughts of the enemy.

Forewarned is forearmed.

I agree with that OP.
We need to see from time to time how the other side thinks and consider what influence they have with voters and the methods they use.
Hard to fight the battles when you don’t understand the enemy or know where their strongholds are located.

There was a time on FR when we’d really poke fun at stuff like this. Now, everyone just gets all upset it is posted.

I miss the old FR days, Viking Kitties and Zots. We do not see much of that anymore.
