CNN identified the members as: Lauren Boebert (CO), Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA), Jim Jordan (OH), Andy Biggs (AZ) Paul Gosar (AZ), Mo Brooks (AL), Madison Cawthorn (NC), Matt Gaetz (FL), Louie Gohmert (TX), Jody Hice (GA) and Scott Perry (PA).

This demand is, on the face of it, fascism. Members of Congress had the audacity to exercise their First Amendment right to speak at a rally, organize a rally, or encourage people to attend a rally — and this demands an authoritarian-style investigation? And they must now be subjected to a fascist-style investigation? Really?................To Read More.....
