GOP Reps. Matt Gaetz and Lauren Boebert discuss their efforts to bring pro-American common sense back to Congress.
Gaetz also asks that the Democrats be held accountable for their continuing destruction of the US and the crimes taking place.
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) unveiled a resolution Wednesday to censure Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS) for allegedly not turning over Jan. 6 Committee documents.
Thompson chaired the Jan. 6 panel until it was dissolved before the new Congress convened in January. Gaetz argues that Thompson breached House rules by not sending the panel’s records to the Clerk of the House.
“Lawmakers investigating the weaponization of the federal government are unable to determine which records of the January 6th Select Committee were kept or destroyed before Republicans took control of the House,” Gaetz said in a statement.
On top of not handing over the files by the end of last year, Gaetz is accusing Thompson of sending numerous “records to the Biden White House and outside the rightful possession of Congress.” His resolution referenced Dec. 30, 2022, letters Thompson wrote to the Biden administration.
“Representative Thompson intentionally violated this rule, as evidenced by his letters to the executive branch, which expressly detail his ‘expectation’ that the House property improperly turned over to the executive branch would eventually be turned over to the National Archives,” the resolution states.
