Republican Leaders Refuse To Expel George Santos aka. Kitara Ravache.

Republican Leaders Refuse To Expel George Santos aka. Kitara Ravache.

The GOP just can’t seem to quit Kitara! And they said they don’t like drag queens.

Via The AP:

Protecting a narrow, four-vote majority, Republican leaders in the House are making clear that they intend to let the legal process play out with New York Rep. George Santos before they take steps to force his resignation or expel him.

Republican leaders, who for months have faced mounting questions about Santos after most of his campaign biography was exposed as a lie, were unmoved and brushed aside calls — including from some colleagues — that they take immediate action to push Santos out of Congress.

“In America, there’s a presumption of innocence. But they’re serious charges. He’s going to have to go through the legal process,” said House Majority Leader Steve Scalise of Louisiana. Scalise was seconded by Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York, the No. 3 House Republican, who sidestepped the question of whether Santos should resign.”

Meanwhile, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said he would not support lying Long Island Rep. George Santos in his re-election bid . McCarthy also implied in a interview with CNN that Santos should consider dropping out of the 2024 race while he deals with the court case and his tattered reputation.

“Santos has a lot going on. I think he has other things to focus on in his life other than running for re-election.” When asked if he would call on Santos to resign as NY-03’s representative if the House Ethics panel rules that he broke the law, McCarthy succinctly responded: “Yes.”

If Santos were a Democrat the GOP would be losing their minds and the Democratic Party would have ousted him a long time ago.

Jan 6 Committee Subpoenas The 4 Horseman of the GOP Apocalypse: McCarthy, Brooks, Biggs, and Gym Jordan.

Via CNN:

The House select committee investigating the January 6 attack on the US Capitol is taking the extraordinary step of sending subpoenas to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and four other Republican lawmakers who have rejected the panel’s requests to voluntarily cooperate. Including: Reps., Mo Brooks of Alabama, Andy Biggs of Arizona, and (of course) Jim Jordan of Ohio

Democratic Chait of the Committee Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, said in a statement.:

“The Select Committee has learned that several of our colleagues have information relevant to our investigation into the attack on January 6th and the events leading up to it. Before we hold our hearings next month, we wished to provide members the opportunity to discuss these matters with the committee voluntarily. Regrettably, the individuals receiving subpoenas today have refused and we’re forced to take this step to help ensure the committee uncovers facts concerning January 6th. We urge our colleagues to comply with the law, do their patriotic duty, and cooperate with our investigation as hundreds of other witnesses have done.”

The committee has scheduled the depositions for the members of Congress for the end of May

GOP Kevin McCarthy Whines: "Democrats are Using January 6th as a Political Weapon!"

GOP Kevin McCarthy Whines: “Democrats are Using January 6th as a Political Weapon!”

House Minority Leader Republican Kevin McCarthy on the one year anniversary of the Jan. 6 attacks in a letter to his GOP colleagues accused Democrats of using the days tragic domestic terrorist attack and events as a “partisan political weapon.”

As we have said from the start, the actions of that day were lawless and as wrong as wrong can be. Our Capitol should never be compromised and those who broke the law deserve to face legal repercussions and full accountability. Unfortunately, one year later, the majority party seems no closer to answering the central question of how the Capitol was left so unprepared and what must be done to ensure it never happens again,” he added. “Instead, they are using it as a partisan political weapon to further divide our country.”

McCarthy’s squirming because he has a personal interest after his phone call with then President Trump during the insurrectionist terrorist attach became public knowledge.

Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., who chairs the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, “invited” House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., on Wednesday for a “voluntary interview”.\

If he has information he wants to share with us and is willing to voluntarily come in, I’m not taking the invitation off the table,” Thompson said during an interview with ABC News.

“If Leader McCarthy has nothing to hide, he can voluntarily come before the committee.”
