The whole purpose of this hearing, per the final speaker - to still whine about not getting the audio that they already have a transcript of, last ditch to shame him out of it before Congress adjourns and they could include clippets in their campaign ads. Garland - show me the legislative purpose served by the audio that you don't get with the written copy. Womp Womp. Plus tons of other whining about how unfair to daddy PAB, so much criiiiiime, omg can hardly even walk the streets anymore.
> On multiple occasions, we, along with our colleagues, have requested from the Department information for our oversight about the nature of the arrests and the prosecutions of these citizens but have yet to receive a sufficient response. Indeed, the Department has ignored most of these inquiries.
Court dockets are public records, you dumbasses.
> To facilitate our oversight, we request that the Department provide a detailed and comprehensive breakdown—beyond what is publicly available—of the name of the individuals prosecuted, whether they were charged with committing violent or non-violent crimes, the specific charges against them, what offenses they ultimately pleaded guilty to violating, and the sentencing requests and sentences received and how they compare with non-January 6 defendants who pleaded guilty to the same criminal offenses.

Along with restatement of those comments, that's 2.5 of the 3 pages of actual stuff (modulo headers and footers, signatures, etc.)
"Yesterday, we had Marjorie Taylor Greene screaming during a congressional hearing that MISTER Fauci needed to be locked up, because whenever it’s her five minutes of questioning, SHE will decide who is a doctor of pandemic medicine sciences, and SHE has been doing her own research and YOU are not, MISTER Fauci."
IMO, MTG's opinion of herself is considerably higher than that of the average American, and even in her own district she has an image problem. Her rant at yesterday's (3 Jun) hearing was to show that if not driving she at least is still in the front seat of the clown car. I believe that her lack of respect for someone who is a licensed MD, whether or not she approves of their actions, speaks to exactly how unserious she takes her responsibilities, and like "Mr" Fauci she should stop referring to herself as a "House Representative." Representatives allegedly represent their constituency, while MTG is much more concerned with acting in political theater, obstructing any legislation brought by a Dem, covering the Mango Malignancy's ass, and auditioning for a position as a talking head in right wingnut media.

"But as usual, House Republicans can’t get it up to vote for contempt, can’t get it up to impeach Biden, can’t get it up."
The House RINOs are like a john with ED paying $1000 to an "escort" in hopes that she can help him get it up. The members of the Psychiatric Facility Escapee Caucus are about as useful as a limp d***, with all of the "winning" they're accomplishing (I'm looking at you Jordan, Comer, Jason Smith, MAGA Mike Johnson, Gaetz... hell, the list is to long to type out here).

"Reckon Republican congressmen will come up with something to babble wildly at Garland."
Babbling is what they do best, other than being obstructionists. Accusations flew with no supporting evidence other than "feelings," and the ability to do this with a straight face tops the accomplishments they have placed in their respective CVs.

"Jim Jordan starts gesticulating wildly like a man"
His physical actions, following the lead of the Fulvous Flatulence, aren't the real show. The real one will be when he releases his highly edited version of the grilling. That should be good for a whole shirtload of kicks and giggles.
<<sigh!!!>> Back when Obama nominated Garland, of all people, thinking that rational (R)s wouldn’t shaft him for naming a right-of-centrist, McConnell et. al. showed us who they were the first time. Yet, Team Biden thought it would be a ‘gotcha’ to install him (a profoundly wrong choice) as AG…and here we are. Cheeto attempted - with limited success - a DOJ purge during his reign. Biden left the extant (R)s in place, bringing us to today.
Now, Congressional (R)s vow to block all things (D) and so what? like this is breaking news? Hoisted a poor girl’s mimosa to Rachel last night, as she laid it bare. They threaten, we yield, & the bullies win.
There aren’t enough (D)s willing to take on the schoolyard fight, imho. Can cite Raskin, Crockett, Swalwell, AOC, Goldman, Whitehouse among them, but they are too few. The (R)s - and their enablers in the MSM - are making all the noise and driving public opinion with their unrefuted b.s.
Nonetheless, am appalled that colossal fuckup Hunter thinks he’s helping his old man by being combative. Noted overnight that he should simply acknowledge that, when he filled out the gun app, he thought he was Archduke Ferdinand, cop to the charge & take the rap.
Tots & pears to fellow Wonkers who’ve reached the age where terminal frustration can become a life-threatening condition. I feels y’all.
Sorry, I couldn't watch because I fear for my blood pressure, so I've been following along here. Was Garland as wimpy in his responses as it sounds from here? Did he push back at all?
Yep, shitshow. I didn't make it through much of the livestream when I finally tuned in -- when I started cussing out the dumbasses like Bishop and Bentz, decided I needed to turn it off and chill for a bit. I mean, Bentz was sitting there accusing Merrick Garland of ganging up on poor Mr President Trump with "Fanny" and "her boyfriend" and Jack Smith, etc in what I can only describe as a gossipy manner. (Ok, I did listen too long. The stupid is contagious.) Every time I think I've finally heard the most ignorant motherfucker in the House, there's some other GQP idiot holding forth whom I hadn't previously considered.
I forgot who called him "Colonel Sanders" but he should never, ever be able to live that down or avoid that nickname for the rest of his miserable life.
Biden: " Pull my finger. "
Oh look!!!! It's Gym Jordon's "Mouth Breathers on Parade".........

We focus on the reps, but people elected them, people who thought that was a good idea. That's the part we should be worried about.

it's all just footage for fox
From the letter they sent:
> On multiple occasions, we, along with our colleagues, have requested from the Department information for our oversight about the nature of the arrests and the prosecutions of these citizens but have yet to receive a sufficient response. Indeed, the Department has ignored most of these inquiries.

fnord
Gym now yammering about Lisa Page and Peter Strzok.
I'd wish they'd get some new material, but it would be every bit the stuff of fantasy as the current material.
Spartz - my fav so far - so so crazy mad!
GUNZ - WTF!?

He tried to but they kept interrupting rudely.

What a bunch of fucking clowns.
Rep Chip Roy pretending he cares about people who have been victims of violent crime – yet he opposes ALL fucking gun laws.
He sucks
Hate Chip Roy too.
I forgot who called him "Colonel Sanders" but he should never, ever be able to live that down or avoid that nickname for the rest of his miserable life.
I think it was Empty G. So she gave us one thing of value.
