hi there, everyone. it s 4:00 in new york. a new chapter in the house gop s plan to govern for fox news and fox news only began today. the committee set up for one purpose only, that is to fuel the right s favorite conspiracy theory, but somehow, the deep state, is out to protect democrats and persecute conservatives and the disgraced ex-president and his allies. the so-called select subcommittee on the weaponization of the federal government held its very first hearing today. republicans invited a panel that included senator chuck grassley, who once said this, that the fbi was, quote, corrupted to its core. senator ron johnson, who has never met a conspiracy he didn t really like a lot. and former congresswoman and current fox news regular tulsi gabbard. here s just some of what they had to say. it s clear to me that the justice department and the fbi are suffering from a political infection that, if it s not defeated, will cause the american people no longer to trust thes
the very court that is supposed to stand in the gap doesn t enjoy the trust of the american people. donna, i m not sure i disagree with anything you said, but i i mean, it is fixable. i mean, you could go up from seven, if you demanded that your body be held to the same standards, not as normal people, but just how about other federal judges? if you said to your eight colleagues, there are only nine of them, this isn t working for anybody, justice alito thinks he s at risk of assassination, this is no good, we must do something differently. he could go testify before the house and the senate and say he supports the legislation. and i m sure it would pass. i mean, there are not a lot of institutions that can do anything to help themselves at this point. supreme court can. well, and the idea that they ve been wrangling over this notion of a code of ethics for months and months and months
