R.H. Political Memes JUSTICE IS SERVED: HOUSE ETHICS COMMITTEE SLAPS THE JANUARY 6 UNSELECT COMMITTEE TRAITORS WITH CENSURE AND FORCES THEM TO PAY BACK $174,000 EACH!By Jonathan Gregory Washington, D.C. - May 27, 2026In a stunning 7-4 vote that has sent shockwaves through Washington, the House Ethics Committee has formally censured the four ranking members of the now disbanded January 6 Select Committee. Representatives Jamie Raskin and Bennie Thompson have been stripped of their committee voting privileges through the end of the year, while former Representatives Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger face a full one year salary restitution penalty. Each is required to repay $174,000 directly to the U.S. Treasury for what the committee described as a misuse of taxpayer resources during their year long investigation.Ethics Committee Chairman Joe Barron delivered the rebuke with characteristic bluntness: “They wasted that year. They can make their $174,000 checks payable to the United States Treasury.” Kinzinger has already signaled that the financial hit could push him toward bankruptcy, while Cheney, drawing on family resources, is expected to weather the penalty, though the public censure remains a significant political embarrassment. Supporters of President Trump hailed the decision as long overdue accountability for what they have long called a politically motivated “witch hunt” that consumed millions in public funds while producing no new evidence of wrongdoing.The January 6 Select Committee’s work, once touted as a solemn defense of democracy, is now widely viewed by many Americans as a partisan spectacle that ultimately backfired. With the censure now official, the clowns of that particular circus find themselves both broke and disgraced. For millions of Trump supporters, this moment feels like the first real taste of justice in a long and contentious chapter of American politics. Finally, some real accountability has arrived.@TrumpNews
