Republicans Need to Emulate Democrats When it Comes to Enforcing Subpoenas.

Wednesday, January 10, 2024

After seeing how "timidly" the Republican-led House committees have handled Hunter Biden and James Biden's refusal to testify after being lawfully subpoenaed WAY BACK on November 8th (ref: apnews.com... ), it is now glaringly obvious that Republicans need to adopt the Democrat's "Shark Attacks Prey" Mindset with uncooperative witnesses.

LOOK AT HOW SWIFTLY DEMOCRATS ATTACK NON-COMPLIERS...

CASE STUDY: Stephen K. Bannon - Civilian/Non-Govt - Advisor to Donald Trump 2016 thru 2020.

OCTOBER 12th 2021: Bannon was Scheduled to testify before the Congressional Committee investigating the January 6, 2021 Capitol Protest of Biden's certification as President. On advice of counsel, did not show, or provide requested documents.

--JULY 22, 2022: After a 4 Day Trial, Steve Bannon was Found Guilty on 2 "Contempt of Congress" counts. (Failure to Testify and Failure to Provide Documents.)

--OCTOBER 21, 2022: Stephen K. Bannon was sentenced to 4 months in prison and ordered to pay a $6,500 fine.

As stated at the top, the GOP-led U.S. House Oversight Committee subpoenaed President Biden's son, Hunter Biden, and brother, James Biden, back on November 8th. Both men have refused to show up and testify. Though Hunter has showed up to Capitol Hill twice, given them the middle-finger, and walked away.

The public removed Democrats from being in charge of the U.S. House in November 2022. Republicans need to show their voters that they didn't make a big mistake!

Problem is they will refer him and the Biden controlled DOJ will find some excuse bot to press charges. They can vote all day long but its won't do anything until the DOJ is wrangled back into lawfulness.

Republicans simply do not hold their ideology to as high a degree as Democrats.

Being the counter culture for so long has twisted the mindset of Liberals to such a degree that pushing for their ideological goals at all coats is not only imperative, there is simply no other way to exist.

Conservatives, having had the luxury of being the dominant culture in society for so long, are complacent regarding their ideological beliefs. They have other pursuits they hold to a higher degree than pushing for their ideological goals. They want to be business people, they want to aquire welfare, they want to be seen as civil and logical, they want to be liked.

Up until the last few decades Conservatives could further these other pursuits and still hold onto the seats of power; they did not need a "win at all costs" mentality to win so they never learned that skill. Now things have changed; now conservatism is the country culture and the Conservatives do not have the needed skills to be successful in this position.

In contrast the "win at all costs" skill set the Liberals have used to fight their way from being the counter culture to dominating Academia, Tech, Wallstreet, Entertainment and the Media will continue to serve them well as they seek to opress ideologies that are different from their own.

The shoe is now on the other foot ... and you won't find any figters among the Republican leadership any time soon. It takes a long time being in the minority before you learn you need to win at all costs if you want your ideology to be dominant.

Quoted for irony.

In a year or two when you are worried that your neighbor is going to break in and shoot you because he heard you have a can of Spam...


Remember who you championed.

Although at that point in your life you are going to blame Trump instead of your owners...

Your programming is complete.

Work on your grammer and have a grate dae👍

I 1st voted in the Johnson/Nixon era. We've always looked at both parties this way: think about it.

The Democrats all wearing blue suits, locked in a room with ga-zillions of Fed $$.... decide and ignore the fate for America.

Meanwhile...blue jean for-the-people Republicans...yell, scream and point fingers...at each other.

Get things out there-Republicans. Argue why we aren't paying for it-Democrats. Democrats- stiff statue. Republicans- statues made of cheese...

YOU ARE SPOT ON!

Mike Johnson was approved as Speaker by every House Republican far too quickly.

He was going to release the January 6th videos so we could pour over them looking for evidence that would help exonerate President Trump. Johnson released 90 of the 40,000 hours in November, then started making excuses.

People bashed Kevin McCarthy, but Donald Trump liked him (and has since 2017), and McCarthy is the Speaker who launched the Biden Impeachment Inquiry.

McCarthy also promised to expunge the two scam impeachments of President Donald Trump.

I've heard nothing to this effect from Speaker Mike Johnson.

YEP....something is fishy. Hopefully its just part of some kind of Secret MAGA-AF Plan. But the worst thing we can do is keep waiting without taking any actions.

Johnson is getting pegged good on the MAGA TruthSocial, Twitter, and Gettr forums. He knows what we want and he knows how suspicious he looks. We'll know soon what is to become of him.

I wouldn't mind a new Speaker every month, until we get one who is truly MAGA-AF (like BYRON DONALDS).

The Biden DOJ will need to write a logical/legal report as to why Hunter Biden was not found in criminal contempt, after the full U.S. House says he should be.

You are obviously very experienced in living the American lifestyle. What course of action are you recommending, MysteriousStranger?

Since I saw both sides screw me n us since Nixon...it was obvious its not about us or our parties. I've always approached from middle ground 1st. Tell the players...

It's been fat-cat Democrat, blue suited, cigar smoking, good ole boys club...nothin' like the widespread, well read, diversified Republicans.

Was watching Reagan today. Great times for America. We had chimps, n Shahs, Star Wars Inititive...good admin...

The Dem admins was always about locked lemmings bursting out of the same holding cell screaming " We can't AFFORD it"! Liars.

Take no sides. There really aren't any. All the sides belong to them, for them. Big secret...

Thankyou MS for taking the time to clarify what you were first conveying from extensive life experiences yesterday.

Tell me. What do you think caused HUNTER BIDEN to suddenly agree to testify to the House Committees, after so much resistance and showboating over the past 30 days?

OR...is this just another stall tactic on Hunter Biden's part?
