“Two wrongs do not make a right. Speaker Pelosi took unprecedented actions last Congress to remove Reps. Greene and Gosar from their committees without proper due process," she said.

What does "due process" look like in that situation, exactly? It's not enough to be a featured speaker at a white nationalist event? Because I think speaking at a white nationalist event would be enough to warrant some kind of punishment. >

It’s not who Greene and Gosar spoke to it’s that they called for violence against fellow members of Congress. In different methods (spoken remarks, animated showcase of murder) . I’m not sure what “due process” looks like for Spartz, but maybe she just disapproves of house wide votes without hearing both sides. Skeptical this is an “independent” thinking Republican >

I remember Gosar's incident now.
Still, the white nationalist thing and, in MTG's case, being a 9/11 truther, would seem to be reasons enough. >

Also he told to coup attempt organizers Trump will issue a blanket pardon for participants >


Somebody like Ilhan Omar should not be serving on Foreign Affairs, especially with her stated positions with respect to the state of Israel. So I would absolutely vote to remove her,

So anyone who says anything “hostile” toward another foreign country shouldn’t be on the Foreign Affairs committee? Guess that disqualifies every republican…. >

Nope, just Israel. Because white evangelicals support Israel. 
It's absurd >

As it turns out making decisions based on spite isn’t that popular amongst people trying to be professional. >

Eh, I think it has more to do with Kevin McCarthy not being that popular amongst anyone. If any of these Republicans thought it would get them votes they'd burn Congress to the ground. >

Also, they know they will likely be the minority again at some point, which sets a bad precedent that could be used against them later. >

The effective time to show this opposition was when it was clear Kevin was giving the asylum to the lunatics. You just needed a half dozen to go to the Dems with an alternate speaker with a history of reasonable bipartisanship that the Dems could have worked together with on issues like the debt ceiling and voting reform that would have helped you kick the crazies out. 
They fact you didn't makes it clear that a reasonable GOP is a unicorn. >

Just because they know when they’ll have inevitably the minority party again, they won’t want to set the precedent of being locked out of everything >

It's because Republicans have zero idea how to goveren and would not know what to do with their committees. They would rather prefer Democrats do the real work while they put on clown shows. >

All the GOP knows how to do is obstruct and blame “libruls.” If committees don’t have prominent democrats to point fingers at and grandstand against, they’ve got nothing. >

I guess they haven’t learned what goes around comes around.
