A GOP Congress will have investigation plans

 Just the News:

The congressman who would lead the most powerful investigative committee in the House if Republicans win the midterms is sending an unmistakable advance warning to the permanent federal bureaucracy: It's time to "get rid of some of these useless bureaucrats who are just a drain on the American taxpayer."

Rep. James Comer of Kentucky, the ranking Republicans on the House Oversight Committee, told Just the News on Thursday evening his top three investigative priorities include Biden family corruption, the insecure southern border and the origins and handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Comer said the latter category will include a deep review of the practices of the National Institutes of Health, including the large salaries, significant autonomy and royalties for taxpayer-funded drugs and vaccines they have collected over the last two decades.

"One of the things that just drives me crazy is the lack of respect by these government bureaucrats that continue to do whatever they want, whenever they want," Comer said. "And they spend whatever they want. The Congress orders these agencies to have certain budgets, they put, you know, line items in there, different types of spending. But then these bureaucrats turn around and they do what they want."

Comer said one tool he hopes to reinvigorate is the Holman Rule, a Civil War era rule that empowers Congress to defund a federal employee, program or office with a simple majority vote if they aren't following federal law or defying the will of Congress. Resurrecting the long-dormant rule has been suggested by some of Comer's colleagues, including Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.).

The corruption within the Biden regime should be a target and that includes the willful ignoring of illegal immigration and an open border.  While border state governors are paying for transporting illegals to blue states and cities, who is authorizing the flights and busses used by Biden to traffic illegals into the country?
