Republican priorities

I guess you have to think of something to occupy your time if you've completely abdicated your duty to oversee the actual government.

They should have Trump go to the event in Dallas to reenact the event.

Clown show. I'm only surprised they're not wearing red nose bulbs, comically oversized shoes and orange wigs.
GAH!

"... and speak with first-hand witnesses."

I'm 70 years old, and I was nine when Kennedy was killed in Dallas.   She's either going to be talking to grown-up schoolkids about what they remember from that day, or they're going to have to hold the biggest seance in history to bring forward any 'first-hand witnesses' who might have been able to provide relevant and credible information.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

Gee, don't spoil the illusion that they're doing something important. Maybe there are some 90 or so year olds still left, but I doubt it--the CIA got them all. :?:

Clint Hill, the Secret Service agent who jumped onto the back of the Lincoln after the shots, died a few days ago at 93. I don't think Rep Luna is going to uncover any new information.

While I doubt the veracity of the claim made on facebook, someone posted that Rep Loony was planning on subpoenaing the Warren Commission for her investigation. Just a tiny issue with that.

Next up, they plan to investigate and interview witnesses for the McKinley assassination...

New information that could come out would be that the government of Communist Cuba was involved in the assassination of Kennedy. They'll never admit it; they have never admitted that Cuban agents tortured American POWs in North Vietnam, but I believe the P.O.W.s were telling the truth. Do you believe they were lying?
I expected to be placed in an air force combat position such as security police, forward air control, pararescue or E.O.D. I would have liked dog handler. I had heard about the dog Nemo and was highly impressed. “SFB” is sad I didn’t end up in E.O.D.

Lying? Not necessarily, but they could be mistaken. FWIW, how would a POW know if an interrogator was Cuban, Spanish, Dominican... or even if they were hispanic at all. They had plenty of other things to worry about than the ethnicity of the interrogators. Likewise, during WW2, I would imagine that the POWs wouldn't know if their interrogators were German, Austrian, Swedish, or even American, nor would they really care,
