The Corruption Runs Deep In This Rolling Clown Show
The House GOPs brazenness, its lack of shame, and its full-throated embrace of interfering with ongoing criminal investigations has the effect of almost normalizing what is an extraordinary level of systemic corruption and abuse of power.
That would be true even if numerous House GOPers didnt have vested personal interests in the investigations in question, but as we know an astonishing number of them are caught up in the investigations that theyre so loudly protesting and are now trying to sabotage.
As Greg Sargent noted yesterday, giving incoming Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH) a select subcommittee to target the FBI and DOJ is basically creating a propaganda machine.
That resistance could serve as grist for Republicans and their allies in the right-wing media to scream coverup and paint investigations as corrupt. That could even be used to manufacture a fake rationale for impeaching Attorney General Merrick Garland, and for attempts to use an obscure House rule to defund investigations of Trump.
