My understanding is that at least half the DOJ's budget is already earmarked for Hunter Biden's laptop

Yeah, that's why Merrick Garland has sat on his hands. The DoJ just hasn't been able to make payroll.

It would be absolutely hilarious if they couldn't pick a speaker. It's funny that it's even possible.

To be fair if it hadn't been for the story about Hunter Biden's laptop getting buried by the mainstream lamestream msm media then Trump would have won. His supporters wouldn't have been outraged, and there would have been no reason for them to have a legitimate expression of free speech at the Capitol.

So, in a way, Hunter Biden is truly the one responsible for 1/6.

Yeak. Chip Roy and other MAGA congressmen don't want further investigation funded.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chip_Roy#Response_to_2020_presidential_election
Over 100 text messages gathered by the January 6th Commission revealed the coordination by Roy and Utah's U.S. Senator Mike Lee with Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows to overturn Trump's defeat in the 2020 election.[71][72][73][74]

That's his carrot, and he doesn't have a stick he'll use (the obvious one would be to strip every rep who doesn't support him of all their committee seats, just go full nuclear right out the gate). He needs their support, so he's openly supporting them, and he'll promise them anything to get there. His one hope is if they agree to let him keep the rules on ousting a Speaker. If it gets back to any one Representative can call for a new vote, his tenure will be short, basically ending the minute he doesn't support the Freedom Caucus agenda..

the Electoral Count Act is also in the omnibus, which is why so many of the GOP are lining up against it.

Meanwhile, Snowden has crawled out of his hole to oppose the omnibus for some reason

I'm not wondering why the Russian citizen indebted to Vladimir Putin named Edward Snowden has an active interest in the US budget that likely sends billions to Ukraine to stop the rebirth of the Soviet Union in its tracks.

Make ya a bet, it's not just for Jan 6th stuff...

But likely there extra "gray" funds for investigation and going after all the surge in American extremists, and the underlying right anti-government activity or sedition groups and VIPs.

They've revealed their hand.
Someone's going to call them on it.

The Biden and the Dems are not stupid. Just very slow.
Can't threaten to take over the nation and not get a reaction.

Ginny Thomas, Leonard Leo, etc...
All the underhanded instigators, they'll be investigated and then some.

The man is literally a Russian propagandist. Watching GOP dittoheads nod in unison to his every tweet is simply bizarre.

No, they're lining up against it because it's over 4,000 pages long and they've been given about a day to read it.
