Why weren't these transcripts furnished to the Special Counsel before now? Wasn't the House Intelligence Committee interested in pursuing justice and getting to the bottom of this matter? Who's been running things in that committee? Oh, yeah . . . right.

Now he gets to subpoena witnesses and place them under oath before they testify.

He gets to make hearings public.

can't do anything until some republicans sign up to be on it. So far, only Dems are on the committee.

Anyone know if Speaker Pelosi can appoint some House republicans to be on it?

There is no time limit to place minority members on the committee? Shouldn't there be?

Maybe republicans are balking at being appointed, so they can stop the investigations.

You're right, and Nunes and McCarthy are the only republicans on the committee so far.

It appears that Speaker Pelosi appoints members (why Nunes, for crying out loud?), but so far other Minority members are TBA, which I guess means To Be Announced.
