I think it may be a flaw in our constitution that grants so much power to a ruling political party and the speaker of the house.

I'm not criticizing kicking these people off their committees a much as I am criticizing those who put them on committees in the first place.

@fanuc2013 Are you a trump supporter?

@Heartlander This was supposed to be the role of press/media. The 4th estate. To point out abuses of power on all sides. To investigate and report no matter the political affiliation. There is no trust in the press any longer on either side. That leaves either party to manipulate the rules to suit the immediate needs/wants of the elite. That is the importance of maintaining traditional procedural norms even when it may not suit your party's wants at the moment in time. Once the tradition is broken then what is good for the goose is good for the gander to maintain some sort of balance. Look at what has happened to the impeachment and special counsel rules over the last half century. Ultimately turn about is fair play.

@Diotrephes I supported his policies, but I think his time has passed.
A lot of them are just Rinos. How many of them are turning on trump now?

@Stargazer89 As bad as the RINOs are, the Democrats, particularly the 3 in question, are far worse. Plagues.
