Gutting the OCE was a concession McCarthy offered up to the sedition caucus to try and secure their votes for speaker, several of whom were pardon shopping post Jan 6 and would most likely benefit from no ethics investigations.
The thing I find interesting is McCarthy wasn’t worried about this deal alienating any other Republicans….it wasn’t going to cost him any votes.
Go figure….

It’s an organization created by the House to investigate the House.  So they can do pretty much whatever they want to it. >

No no no the first thing one day one if I remember correctly Rep McCarthy promised to read the constitution in its entirety………promises made promises kept right guys
