Yes. Recent public expose has proven that beyond all reasonable doubt.

Jim Jordan, Marjorie Taylor Green, & Lauren Boebert sent a letter to Pete Buttigieg thinking that NTSB was part of the Department of Transportation when it’s actually an independent agency.
Complete idiots & in an utter circus. Here's an overheard conversation....
Three Toed Marge: "I slept with a Brazilian."
Bobo Boebert: "OMG! How many is a Brazilian?"

Ridiculous to give Tucker Carlson exclusive access to government videos so that he can create a counter narrative to challenge reality of capital insurrection.
Several news outlets demand equal access to government videos that House republicans gave to Fox news. For examples, ABC, CNN, bloomberg, MSNBC, propublica, LA times and others.

House committee of republicans promoting covid misinformation appear to be gearing up to promote lab leak theory. Previous US intelligence findings are inconclusive. Another investigation is likely to be a waste of time and money because of few new revelations that could ever be found. With low confidence, energy department recently favors lab origin of pandemic. But this means information credibility is uncertain. In 3 years, there has never been any evidence that coronavirus escaped from a Chinese lab. However virology and epidemiology community still overwhelmingly favor natural origin because of actual evidences.

During a House committee hearing on U.S. military support for Ukraine, FL Rep. Matt Gaetz tried to cite a report considered to be Chinese propaganda and promptly got called out on it by a witness.
This dope doesn't care where his source comes from as long as it fits his agenda.

Speaking of Gaetz, he brought “somebody that he met at a gun club” to the first House Judiciary Committee hearing to lead the Pledge of Allegiance. Gaetz’s honored guest was charged with killing a family member in April 2019.
Funny that the GOP is trying to own the libs with their stunts, but the libs end up owning them.

Gaetz was also caught red-handed quoting Chinese propaganda machine Global Times as if it were fact today, causing the witness to say “I don’t listen to Chinese propaganda.” Gaetz replied “Point taken, sir.”

Chinese propaganda supports Russian propaganda in criticizing Azov militia as a Nazi terrorist group in Ukraine. De-nazification is one of the reasons given by Putin for Ukraine invasion. But Azov militia is now part of Ukraine military and fascists are a tiny minority of Ukraine population. So Putin invasion is really about replacing Ukraine pro-western, democratically elected government with a Kremlin puppet.

House republicans believe too much free speech is restricted. So they approve a bill prohibiting government from requiring social media companies to suppress or add disclaimers to lawful commentary. For examples, 2020 election fraud, vaccines, masks, Putin propaganda and Hunter laptop. However bill is unlikely to pass senate. Democrats call bill a solution without a problem. No witness said the FBI ordered twitter to limit distribution of laptop story. Also companies have first amendment right to establish their own rules. Instead democrats argue platforms should do more to combat misinformation.

The Director of the FBI disagrees with the assessment of intelligence expert and resident covers fact checker, thirdperson.... be better third, maybe post a source every now and then...could help boost what zero of credibility you currently hold under your current title.

No consensus in US government about the origin of covid pandemic. In 2021 intelligence report, 4 of 8 departments favor natural origin theory. Not much has changed in 2023. Misleading to conclude FBI confidence prove lab leak origin or negate evidences for natural origin. Virologists are much less divided than US intelligence. They say there is overwhelming evidences for natural origin. Strongest evidences come from two studies by Worobey and Rasmussen published in Science magazine proving covid pandemic originated from Wuhan market.

The mask mandate? Can we then state a paper cloth mask without the ability to confirm to hepa standards is useless against a virus. That you can catch covid even with mask all the vaccines series and every possible precaution allowed.
Why does congress need to pass any law? Have we not already have a constitution that directly expresses the freedom of speech?
News flash the only bill that will pass congress in the next two years will be that we need to raise the debt ceiling.
And this will be a huge bill with every ear mark special interest program needed to pass the house and senate.
For the president to state somehow this should be a clean bill and if such a bill indeed were drafted and passed into law would itself be completely unpressidented.
They get their raise anyway. They have vote not to get one in order not to receive their increase in pay...

Jim Jordan’s Weaponization Subcommittee Keeps Firing Blanks.
Jordan's circus of witnesses provide no actual evidence of direct government censorship of any lawful speech. Just attempts by GOP to score political points by promoting false narratives while wasting public funds.

House passed legislation to declassify the origin of covid 19.... Obviously a straight party line vote .
So why does the democrats object to this legislation???? Obvious because the republicans support the measure the democrats must oppose it....
So bat flu or wuhan viral institution man made ...
I am putting this here because it is the problem in america . At some point politicians need to stop campaigning and start actually doing the work we sent these individuals to washington to do.
We need 10 parties at this point to stop this two sides to every issue and remove the bull crap of our two party system.
Why meaning full legislation has either party put forward in the last decade???
Anyone has an opinion of a piece of legislation that actually helped all Americans?

Previously passed in senate, house votes unanimously to declassify intelligence on pandemic origin with bipartisan support. After 3 years, origin remains uncertain. With low confidence, US intelligence is divided with 5 departments favoring natural origin while 2 departments favor lab leak theory and 1 remains uncertain. In house investigation, science has taken a back seat to politics. However virology community is less divided because of scientific evidences for natural origin and none for lab leak theory. Historically, origins of pandemics may not be discovered until years later (if ever). Even without knowing the origin, countries can still prepare for the next pandemic in the future.

A. For all the loud mouth propaganda and proposals the Retardlicans are puking up; they, and we, should remember they are not going to deliver diddly-squat with a Demo Senate and White House. They really have nothing to do but play spoiler, so that is what they are concentrating on. B.S. committees and investigations headed nowhere..
B. When blaming elected officials for wasting their time and doing nothing on behalf of the country we should cut to the core root of the problem. Voters that have backed a straight party ticket all their lives and the crowd that consistently votes for the better liar, even when they know he is liar to begin with.
Now and then even a BLIND squirrel can find an acorn

Multiple parties is only very slightly better overall in many cases but has a down side as well, leading to coalition governments where the minority party that only a small percent of the pop voted for holds the power.

Unlike the US, most stable democracies in the world have parliamentary systems. For example, Canada has 4-5 different parties but still has a reputation for good government. If no party has enough votes to form a government, parties must cooperate and compromise to form a coalition. The major party still has more power than the minor partner. Historically, minority governments tend to be better than majority governments because bad laws are less likely to be implemented. If coalitions don't last, elections are more frequent.
