House Joint Committee Hearing With IG Michael Horowitz – 10:00am Livestream…

[a little elbow grease]

A joint committee from House Ove rsight and House Judiciary are conducting a hearing today at 10:00am EDT with DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz. Unlike the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing yesterday the House team has representatives far more knowledgeable of the issues. Hopefully, expertise will deliver better questions.

Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte has direct primary oversight authority over the DOJ. Chairman Trey Gowdy comes from the aggregate Oversight/Reform Committee. Far more House members have read the 568-page IG report. Due to a better informed group of members we are more optimistic for detailed, specific, confrontational and challenging questions to draw out the key issues. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.

ForGod's sake and the country's sake can we have prayers answered that there will be some sunlight today as the best disinfectant?

I wish someone would force him to spell out what he means by “political” bias, and how he distinguishes it from garden-variety bias.

Yesterday’s interview between Senator Kennedy and Horowitz needs to be seen by all. I’ve sent it to my email list and asked everyone to forward it to their list(s). The MSM will bury this so it’s up to us to circulate it.

Cautiously optimistic...

This is where The House Freedom Caucus gets to go after Hordowitz. Should be gooood! Unlike that Senate comittee yesterday.

DeSantis was a Navy JAG, and will come loaded for bear.

And DeSantis has a tremendous amount of energy. I attended a DeSantis rally last night in Florida. He probably took a late night flight to Washington DC to attend the 10 am hearing.

Nah, I want them to directly confront Wray on his willful Obstruction of Congressional Supaenas.

**************

Confrontational and challenging. Yeah, right.

Mid-terms are quickly approaching so its time for the GOP to trot out the timely dog and pony shows to try to convince the voters they are doing something. See how great we are? Vote for us -- again.

There will be the usual fake outrage, bloviating and posturing but no action. Lots of barking, but no bites.

Nadler looks ... like Nadler LOL ;)

[mkmensinger]

Nadler is a butthole.

Can we assume this will be the thread for comments on the hearing, or will there be a dedicated thread?

[cgbg]

I think he will apologize—for the failure of the coup attempt! :-(

[Genoa]

If this is THE thread it probably needs to be in Breaking too.

[LuvFreeRepublic]

Agree, breaking.

[VRWCarea51]

Roostertail up first.

Tear into them Trey...

Cummings lost his soul a long time ago, but how the hell can he straight up lie about “child internment camps”?

[MagnoliaB]

Cummings the obstructionist. Sounds very desperate. What a performance! I’m making popcorn. I think his head may blow!

[BubbaJunebug]

Cummings has lost it...what a fkg pos

[Presbyterian Reporter]

Is this going to be the ‘live thread’ for today’s hearing?

It seems we should have one that links directly to the hearing as we did yesterday.

[Sa-teef]

Cummings is all teary eyed about the poor, poor kids in cage. What a lying POS.
