GOP Rep. James Comer says Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert have shown interest in being on Oversight Committee in a Republican-controlled House

GOP Rep. James Comer of Kentucky, who could potentially lead the powerful House Oversight Committee if Republicans take control of the lower chamber after the 2022 midterms, said high-profile conservative congresswomen Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Lauren Boebert of Colorado have shown interest in becoming members of the panel.

In a recent interview with Politico, Comer — who is currently the Oversight ranking member — said that if he led the panel, it would not devolve into "a dog-and-pony show."

"This isn't a committee where everybody's gonna scream and be outraged and try to make the witnesses look like fools," he told Politico as he launched a political attack against past Democratic-led investigations.

Typical.

Far-right wingers want to be overseers.

Maybe if we put these two”firebrands” on the committee and Jim Jordan becomes the Speaker, we can see what the committee is capable of doing. Certainly, too many Republicans are just there to collect their paycheck every two weeks.

Investigates waste, fraud, and abuse. Very powerful committee.

I hope that you are right. The country needs the most anal pitbulls in that position. The success of our USA depends on reversing course away from communism and towards independence.

James Comer (R-KY) is a “go along to get along” type of politician. He’s the reason why Republican voters are so frustrated. We need fighters and he ain’t it.

“Certainly, too many Republicans are just there to collect their paycheck every two weeks.”

I believe these are the ones not standing up for Prez Trump NOW and the 4 years of his presidency. IMO

Too bad they aren’t older. Menopause is PMS times 100.

LOL

The Dems, when they take the midterms, may allow them to be on the Pop Bottle Sorting Committee, or maybe the Women’s Products In The Male Bathroom Committee.

Valid point! Whoever is in that position/s must act without mercy or pity to restore us to a truly fair and impartial deep state.
