Today, after Nancy Pelosi objected to Jim Jordan and Jim Banks serving on the investigative committee, Kevin McCarthy threw a hissy fit and decided to pull all five of his picks. He accused Pelosi of an "egregious abuse of power" and said the committee "has lost its legitimacy." Hey, Kevin, how "legitimate" would the committee be with Retrumplicans who believe Trump won the election? Republican Liz Cheney was chosen by Pelosi and will serve on the committee. Cheney today called McCarthy's rhetoric "disgraceful" and said his "lack of commitment to the Constitution" should disqualify him from serving as Speaker of the House if Republicans regain the House in 2022. She said, "At every opportunity, the minority leader has attempted to prevent the American people from understanding what happened. The idea that anybody would be playing politics with an attack on the United States Capitol is despicable and disgraceful."
