  America handing the GOP the keys to another body of government tells you all you need to know.
  America is a failed state that is dying of poison it has been drinking long before I started my iteration here 36 years ago
context: Party of law and order. Lol. >

  My head got all tapped out during Ross Perot’s run (former Libbie here—“I got better” Cleese, after proclaiming a witch had turned him into a newt) >
  
  Real-life Cleese,unfortunately, did not get better, and has recently gotten significantly worse. >
  
  You know what George Santos had to say about gutting the Ethics Committee?
  
  "I think it's fantastic." >
  
  You mean Anthony Devolder? >
  
  No, no.  He means George Washington. >
  
  Article quote: "Furthermore, in true Orwellian fashion, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) will head the subcommittee to investigate the January 6th Committee and Justice Department investigators of the Trump coup attempt."
  This is why the DOJ should have acted faster, instead of dragging their feet. Jordan is guaranteed to bring out the circus tent and clown show. >
  
  But what can they actually do to stop the DoJ and its investigation? All they can do is make noise about it for the benefit of their idiot followers. >
  
  Gyms going to roll up his sleeves and pound the table because that's all he's got; unfortunately, that's all the Rabid Right needs for fuel for their Outrage Ouroboros! >

  They’ve become the anti-law and pro-disorder party. >
  
  It really is true, whatever they are campaigning about, they do the opposite >
  
  How could they have gone from Donald Trump’s devout adherence to the ethics rules, to this? /s >
  
  The GOP has no ethics. Why would they need an ethics committee. >
  
  
  The Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) has concluded you lack any ethics whatsoever.
  
  — OCE
  
  Ya duh ^((…resumes rapey cocaine orgy))
  
  — House GQP >
  
  The party of domestic terrorism doesn't have to pretend. Their ministry of propaganda media outlet lies to their dupes who accept whatever they're told. >
  
  Bigly represented by Faux Nooz whining about inflation and breakdowns in the aviation industry and dropping it directly in the laps of Democrats without any mention of 4 years of the lazy and incompetent Former Guy (who himself used multiple declarations of "Infrastructure Week" to cover up his regime's shady behavior), the garbage Republicon congresses he had, and the current Republican House's fascination with all things revenge. >
  
  Why do we allow for this to happen at all?  How can the subjects of oversight end their own oversight? >
  
  " Don't worry, the system will soon correct itself." It's easier to believe this than it is to look behind the curtains. >
  
  …Putler enters the chat >
  
  This being one of their first acts speaks volumes about who these people serve. They certainly aren’t serving their constituents. I’m sick to my stomach about what the future holds. It’s not going to be good. >
  
  Well this is part of the self destruction of the GOP. >
  
  They're a wounded animal, and all the more dangerous >
  
  They saw that scotus gets away with anything they want because there's no ethics regulations in that branch, and thought "that's a neat idea." >
  
  Democrats should ask them, on the floor, during debate, what they have against ethics. >
  
  GOP(C) = Grand Ol Party of (Corruption). >
  
  G - Gaslight O- Obstruct P - Project. >
  
  There can be no ethics problems if no one is counting them. >
  
  Sounds a lot like their approach to domestic terrorism!  Guess activated fascist clans and MAGA-allied hordes don't exist if you simply order everyone to not look. >
  
  Republicans are like: "We don't need no stupid ethics, whatever they are. Trump didn't need them, so why do we?" >
  
  Perfect example...giving away that they know right from wrong, but defiantly refusing to do the right thing--with a dose of defending one of the worst in their ranks thrown in. >
  
  Nothing but bought and payed for politicians. >
  
  This headline seems wrong, the office of congressional ethics was cut; the house ethics committee is still functioning (as it always has) >
  
  The party of Trump continues.  It must be liberating, to be free from propping up the illusion of integrity. >
  
  Hey OP, office of congressional ethics and House Ethics Committee are different things. GOP isn't gutting House Ethics Committee, they're gutting OCE. Your title is misleading, you might want to change it. OCE is more of a watchdog, house ethics is a standing committee with Representatives sitting on it. OCE takes complaints from the public, the committee takes complaints internally. >
  
  Thanks! >
  
  Fix it >
  
  Can't edit post titles. >
  
  I know that. The right thing to do would be to add some text with the correct information in the body of the post. 
  If you can't do that, delete it entirely.  Repost it with the correct title, if you like.
  Why are we supporting spreading misinformation? Are upvotes worth more than the truth? Or is it just about scoring points against Republicans? >
  
  Well with that pesky ethics committee out of the way Jim Jordan can realize his dream of becoming the next Dennis Hastert. He just needs a bit more grifting and misappropriation of federal funds. >
  
  These genetic garbage cans won’t do shit except spew nonsense out of their rotten mouths. Fuck them all the way to oblivion and back! >
  
  From the people that constantly say "If you don't got nothin to hide then why don't you want us to look" 
  Well if you don't got nothin to hide then why do you constantly gut the ethics committees every chance you get? >
  
  there goes the grand old party, making america so great, just like china where their CCDI acts as an FBI that doesnt arrest popliticians because it would be political. You hear a flush? mustve been trumps golden toilet rubbing the last two secrets we have together in their classified paper turd clod toilet clog form. >
  
  The modern GOP is fantastically short sighted. I mean more than normal for politicians even. 
  This will come back to bite them someday. The stupid "weaponized government" committee can very well be aimed at a future GOP president as much as the current administration. But hey, who needs future problems? Let's take the easy way to getting what we want now! Nevermind the terrible cost we'll have to pay for later. 
  And when Democrats in the house are adding unethically, there's not much they can do about that either.
  The government is already run by far too many incompetents. These guys are taking incompetence to a whole other level.
