No One Above The Law Except Dems – Grrr Graphics – Ben Garrison Cartoon - NEWSPLATE

House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) told Breitbart News exclusively in an interview that House Republicans have sent dozens of “preservation notices” across the federal government to agencies and departments throughout Democrat President Joe Biden’s administration ordering them to preserve documents in anticipation of eventual subpoenas from House Republicans after the 2022 midterm elections. What’s more, McCarthy said he is tasking every House committee with fully engaging in oversight matters — rather than just running everything through the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform — broadening the use of the levers of congressional authority to engage in a massive and unprecedented effort to rein in the Biden administration’s waste, fraud, and abuse of power.

“First we’re focused on the biggest issue drivers because we want to win elections,” McCarthy told Breitbart News. “Inflation, that’s the number one and we’re beating them by more than 20 points, crime, the border, fentanyl, energy independence, and we’re going to put that all in the Commitment to America. But what we’re also going to have too is our Accountability Project. So, every single committee has an oversight subcommittee. Most people think when you come to Congress if you want to do oversight you go to the Oversight Committee. No — every committee has one.”

McCarthy’s interview, at the House GOP retreat here at the Marriott at Sawgrass just outside Jacksonville where weeks ago pro golfers competed in the TPC (The Players Championship) tournament, focused heavily on oversight preparation that Republicans are planning for if and when they retake the U.S. House majority. Republicans are five seats away from a majority, and with Biden’s approval rating tanking and generic ballot polling showing a consistent GOP lead over Democrats, the GOP is confident it can pull off a midterm win and retake control of at least the lower chamber of Congress if not the U.S. Senate as well. With a majority comes the gavels on committees and the ability to compel document production and witness testimony, as well as to call hearings and set the agenda for Congress, something Republicans have not had since the 2018 midterms saw the Democrats sweep back into power. At the GOP retreat, in addition to finalizing the “Commitment to America” House GOP agenda — a product expected to be very similar to Newt Gingrich’s 1994 Contract with America — McCarthy is sharpening members’ oversight skills by holding training sessions for House Republicans so they’re ready to hit the ground running on day one rather than letting Biden and his allies drag out document requests and subpoena cooperation for months on end when the GOP gets the gavels back.

  • Sounds a lot like a notice to hide or destroy any and all documents that may have disastrous consequences, but carefully camouflaged to appear as a Republican effort to attack corruption in government.

  • Ronald agree totally. We as conservatives are going to have to get off our butts not only vote but be poll workers vote counters ect. Get bold and get loud!

  • If the GOP retakes both houses look for the excuse for doing nothing more than holding go nowhere hearings centered on not having a supermajority... McConnell famously used the: "We don't have a supermajority", as an excuse for doing nothing constructive to reform government. 

    There is also the very real possibility that the elections will be rigged to favor the retention of both houses by the Democrats... Election fraud is the new standard for conducting US Elections... Anything is possible under the Stalinist system of elections, where those counting the votes determine the winners, not those casting their votes.

    • There is talk of unloading Mitch as Leader.  I keep hearing McCarthy saying that he will be the Speaker.  In either case it would be tragic.  In both cases, it would end the GOP.  Both posts should be occupied by pro-Trumpsters as well as staunch conservatives.

  • Actions speak louder than words.

    Indictments producing Justice speak loudest of all.

    • The term INDICTMENT has been stricken from the lexicon of the GOP... They will hold hearings, proving crimes were committed but will fail to issue a resolution demanding the DOJ prosecute... referrals for indictment will be extremely rare and only used on those members of the government who are not toeing the new world order's line of tripe.

    • Well it is in my lexicon (spelled OKAY too). And as long as it is a part of due-process, we are bound to demand its observance, or express consequences for the slipshod and untrust-worthy servants in their failure. 

      A change is in the wind.

  • It sounds good, but it is no better than the people.  I have not been too damn impressed with the Republican house members lately. 

     

  • DON'T FORGET it was Kevin McCarthy in 2010? that was tasked with REMOVING the Tea Party Members who chaired any Committee's!!!!!! Removing them from their Chairmanshsip positions, so do not Trust McCarthy

    • BRAVO, Matt!  So many forget this fact.  Obviously, you have not.  Thank-you for reminding us who have and those who did not know.  McCarthy will not remind us.  We need to get far more involved at the state level and unload these smiling, tall, pretty-haired, parasites.
