Sign this if you agree: Stop wasting taxpayer money on frivolous GOP hearings [1] ['Daily Kos Staff', 'Backgroundurl Avatar_Large', 'Nickname', 'Joined', 'Created_At', 'Story Count', 'N_Stories', 'Comment Count', 'N_Comments', 'Popular Tags'] Date: 2023-02-16 During the 2022 midterms, the GOP showed their hand. Candidates ran on platforms of theatrical and baseless impeachment threats and a flood of “investigations”—all of which will only serve to waste resources, time, and lots of taxpayer money. Now that the GOP has control of the U.S. House, the pomp and circumstance has begun. A Weaponization of the Federal Government subcommittee has been formed and hearings have started in an absurd attempt to prove the federal government has been turned against conservatives. We fund these theatrics: Taxpayer money is wasted with every crocodile tear the GOP plans to sling during these unnecessary and frivolous hearings. Americans are not fooled: 56% see the Weaponization of the Federal Government subcommittee and its hearings as "an attempt to score political points" rather than a legitimate investigation. They’re so ludicrous, even Fox News declined to air them. And there’s more to come! The GOP is lining up baseless investigations to serve nothing more than their own posturing—on taxpayers’ dime. These investigations and hearings are only serving to distract and divide us. If the GOP actually cared about the American people, they would stop lighting our money on fire for pointless histrionics and focus on supporting and protecting us. The useless investigations and hearings that spend millions of our tax dollars are an insult to all of us. Join us and demand they stop this nonsense: We do not care about your politicizing, now stop wasting our money!
