Pelosi names Republican Rep. Kinzginer to Jan. 6 Capitol riot panel
2021-07-26
[NYPOST] House Speaker Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi
Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments...
on Sunday named Republican Rep. Adam Kinzginer to the committee that will examine the Jan. 6 Capitol riot — after refusing to appoint GOP Reps. Jim Jordan and Jim Banks.Kinzinger, an outspoken critic of former President Donald Trump
...The man who was so stupid he beat fourteen professional politicians, a former tech CEO, and a brain surgeon for the Republican nomination in 2016, then beat The Smartest Woman in the World in the general election...
’s role in the melee, said he "humbly" accepted Pelosi’s appointment.

"I swore an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution — and while this is not the position I expected to be in or sought out, when duty calls, I will always answer," the Iraq War vet wrote Sunday on Twitter.

The Illinois pol joins Rep. Liz Cheney
...Faux Republican hereditary congresswoman-for-life from Wyoming. She has been described as Republican royalty. A staunch Never Trumper, Liz supported the second impeachment of Donald Trump for his role in the 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol. Publicans dumped her from her leadership position in May 2021. Refusing to admit that she had trashed her own career, Cheney has said that she intends to be the leader... in a fight to help to restore our party and that she may be interested in a future presidential run....
of Wyoming as the only Republicans currently on the select committee.

Both congressional members were the only GOP politicians to vote last month in favor of establishing a select committee in the House to probe the debacle.

Kinzinger will bring "great patriotism to the committee’s mission: to find the facts and protect our Democracy," Pelosi said in a statement.

#6  “On January 6th, insurrectionists attempted to overthrow the government during the worst assault on the Capitol since the War of 1812,” said Speaker Nancy Pelosi. “It is imperative that we get to the truth of that day and ensure that such an attack can never again happen." From Speaker-for-Life-and-Beyond website.

She wants to insure that we don't get to the truth of the day as she probably had a lot to do with fomenting and covering up the insurrection. BTW, I can believe she was in the position during the War of 1812.

#5  Isn't the minority party supposed to pick the people they want for committees?

Kinzinger ("R" as in Rino). Might as well be a Democrat.
