Hey, House Republicans!

December 5, 2022 --

Check out this opening to Peter Van Buren's November 28 article at The American Conservative.

What, pray tell, after January 3, 2023, are you going to do about it?

For starters, how about investigating the FBI's role in Russiagate AND the House Select Committee on January 6, 2021 -- did this panel violate the terms of H. Res. 503, the organizing resolution ,and, if so, should any member this committee and/or the former House speaker be held accountable?

"As he wraps up his Russiagate investigation with the now-failed prosecution of Igor Danchenko, we are left only with questions about what John Durham did not do.

"The mainstream media barely covered this event, which began with an attempt to overthrow and dispose of the president of the United States. Best to start with what we learned. Durham established what FBI Director James Comey likely knew from near day one: the Steele dossier was politically driven nonsense created by the Clinton campaign. The FBI knowingly ran with its false information to begin a legal process against American citizens, to include Donald Trump as a candidate and as president. The FBI’s goal was to destroy candidate Trump—and, when that failed, destroy President Trump—by tagging him as a Russian agent."

LPR has just one problem with the piece. It wasn't only the FBI that sought "to destroy candidate Trump" by foul means-- it was the entire deep state, including the Democrat part, the federal bureaucracy, the media, the Obama administration, and, of course, the Clinton campaign.
