to investigate and screw the composition equality guardrails that the rethugs wish to use to cover up their stinking corruption and complicity in the insurrection. This charade of bi-partianship will never work. They proved this when they persisted to go after Hillary Clinton over Benghazi and before that with Ken Starr's actual witch hunt for Travelgate and Whitewater that led to the Lewinsky mess. Screw the GQP.
