The fact that they can sit up there and defend this and say the republicans want the tapes for a political campaign should be criminal. It doesn’t matter what the reason is, there shouldn’t be anything on those tapes to use for political gain. The democrats make it seem like the republicans are wasting time and efforts and use reverse psychology to say that the republicans are trying to do what the democrats are currently doing. What is going on? These people care way more about staying in power than they do about the American people or what’s best for America. They are brainwashed. How is it that all the democrats usually vote together on these issues? Not one person thinks anything different? None of them think this is a problem. They won’t look into the Biden’s dealings with foreign countries and call it disinformation, but turn around and use every bit of their power to try and convict Trump for the same things only not as bad. Or try to convict him on a loan for his house, get on tv and blatantly lie to the American people about its value. Or convict him on the stormy Daniel’s case even when she clearly lied under oath and there’s plenty of video evidence. I’m not saying that Trump is perfect, none of us are, we are tired of being lied to and tired of the democratic cult. Trump 2024

This is SHAMEFUL! There is NO ORDER/NO RESPECT, sickening
"Take your conversations off the floor, please!" Should have been: "The House will be in Order, All Conversations WILL STOP, ALL Representatives will RETURN TO THEIR SEATS, and pay attention to the business on the floor of this Chamber!" Observe how many times they need reminding to DO THEIR JOBS and how even after requests, many choose to leave the chamber instead of come to work!!!
The tax payers want the tapes if we don’t get them in a timely manner then lock him up. We are tired of the double standards
If there are no consequences for bad behavior there is no reason for them to change their behavior.
Congress makes the laws judge, you're supposed to keep them. Understand your place and that even you are not above the Supreme Law of The Land. God Bless America!
They will all be in jail soon...
Let's confirm it!!!! What are you hiding?
To chicken to hand over audio, video because its the great cover up!

you should brush up on the law. the only way any one can be arrested in the house or Senate would be if the attorney general authorizes the target of arms to place the person under arrest. and its not very likely you could get the attorney general to call for his own arrest just like how they could not get Eric Holder to charge himself and order his own arrest when he also refused to testify and turn over stuff to Congress and defied a subpoena... yes i know that's whacky but that's the law and inless the law were changed there is no way of getting around the facts.
He's a shamed to hand over the tapes because it's gonna show how intognative Biden really is! What does he have to hide by not turning the tape over that speaks volumes democrats!

It's pretty apparent goldman got his law license via the cereal box
Anytime you see Goldman in a hearing it's just for practice, he's not a very smart lawyer and his district likes it that way.
Saying Republicans need this for attack ads is funny now the debate and speeches after give enough for that and also increases the need to hear what was said not just what was written
The rule of law requires audio.
What a zoo…🙄
A hypocrite calling others a hypocrite is the most hypocritical thing you can do.

If there is nothing to hide from this "unserious stuff" let's get Garland to comply.
