GOP’s ‘weaponization’ committee celebrates Festivus far too early [msnbc.com]

Good thing they weaponized the committee! Goodness knows what kind of discrimination they would have faced as intellectually challenged conservatives. Gym Jordan for evas!!!

For the rest of us, however, it was a mind-numbing and ultimately pointless display, featuring baseless whimpering from far-right officials who apparently assume mainstream Americans are familiar with their weird claims.

A Politico report noted that the House panel’s Republican majority amplified “a long list of perceived slights,” but the hearing, spanning more than three hours, “contained little new information.” A New York Times report added, “There was sinister talk of destructive forces on the left that Republicans said held undue influence both in the United States and globally. Yet there were no fresh revelations.”

The Washington Post’s Dana Milbank marveled at the “errant slugs that ricocheted crazily” out of the Republicans’ mouths.
