ITS A REALLY BIG DEAL!!!!
But is it really? Yes and no. The power is limited and the it WILL absolutely annoy and piss off the Republicans BUT what are the real concrete effect it is going to have?
Seriously, I KNOW the talk:
"We can subpoena Trump's tax returns!"
"We can perhaps impeach Trump!"
"We can investigate the Russia interference!"
"We will investigate Kavanaugh"
They have that power? No, not really. I mean yes in theory BUT breaking it down:
Trump will ignore subpoenas and then they demand and he lawyers up and they go to the supreme court and they find out just how worth it, it was attacking Justice Kavanaugh;
They get enough people to agree to impeach Trump and THEN all they have to do is to get 66 Senators in the senate to sign off on it and......hahaha good luck there when the Democrats have only 45 Senators in the Senate;
We can investigate the Russian interference - sure but it has already been investigated in the Senate and house already and is about to be finalised in the Mueller investigation - and it is highly likely that Huber and Horowitz are going to find some connections to Russia and a political party NOT called Republicans.
Investigate Kavanaugh.....for the 11th time with uncorroborated claims and especially after admissions from some elements of fabricating evidence.....that is going nowhere and will only serve to further alienate the Supreme Court from the Democrats.
So then they have no power? No, they have some power.
All of those House investigations into Uranium One and the Clinton Foundation and the like? Well they are going to get quashed and the house will be investigation other crap.
What about Trump's wall and stuff like that? Trump can either forget about that or have to get VERY creative to get around that.
What about the Huber and Horowitz investigations? What about them? No change.
What about any ongoing investigations? Do they just stop? No, but they better have them finished by January 1st.
What about Trump's plans to stock the courts with Conservative Judges? All good that is all done in the Senate.
What about any investigations in the senate or that will be started ion the senate? They are looking pretty good.
The House is only held for two years and if they do not impress they may find holding onto their seats difficult if they do not do much but obstruct Republicans and waste money on hapless investigations like ones that have already been investigated.
Still Yay for winning the House?
