You are right. Cruz, Gowdy, McConnell, Lindsay Graham and a few others. Talking big and tough - makes for good YT clips I guess, outside of that is all show and no go.
I like Jim Jordan - but his act is wearing thin.
These guys are always complaining to US, the public!
I quite often hear: "How can they do this to us, Why is Pelosi getting away with this or that, How come Schumer just did this, Do you know what the Dems want to do, Those dems are doing this and doing that"
They sound like a bunch of 14yr old girls. STOP TALKING AND DO SOMETHING!
People seem to not know how our government works. Congressional hearings are mostly for show for the people. Congressmen don't have the powers of arrest. Even though lying to Congress (perjury under oath) is a crime Congress still can't enforce the law. All they can do is request the DOJ investigate. After that it's in the hands of the Attorney General. If he shit cans the request nothing will happen.
99% of what you see and hear from Congressional testimony is for show.
He reminds me of Trey Gowdy, All talk no action
Congressmen don't have the power to take action. They can't enforce law, only the DOJ has that power.
The focus committee tells him what they believe we want to hear.
He utters those words and adds his play-acting skills to sell the illusion that he means those words to mean something useful.
Then the cameras turn off and he's right back to swamp crittering like the best of them.

Can't wait for the Q team to call the ball man..
Like when Trey Gowdy used to grill them. Then crickets.

Correct. EVERYTHING has been shit-canned from Congressional hearings. All theater.
Theater? Or film?
He's the Sean Hannity of politics.
