I get that he has to fight this, for political reasons, but this is the dumbest fucking rebuttal ever
What he’s targeting here is private citizens with no legislative purpose. I think it’s completely and totally inappropriate,” McConnell said at a press conference Tuesday
The Supreme Court is hardly your average citizen and Congress absolutely has reasons to investigate potential corrupt in the Supreme Court.
Targeting a private citizen who was involved in bribing members of the Supreme Court of the United States. Somehow I think that second part might be relevant to Congress subpoenaing that "poor wittle pwivate citizen"
Also, calling billionaires "private citizens" seems wrong to me. If you've managed to hoard enough wealth to make a Tolkien dragon envious, you're no longer a "private citizen" in my book. If I became an immortal being when Christ was born, started saving $10,000 a day every day, didn't spend a single dime, and STILL don't have your net worth today, over 2,000 years later - then fuck you - you're not a "private citizen" you're a god damn plague upon society that should be counting your blessings that guillotines went out of style a few centuries ago. As far as I'm concerned, billionaires should be in front of Congress every day explaining why they should be allowed to exist.

...once, until they're entirely abolished. Billionaires are a policy failure.
Congress is literally tasked with setting up the court system in the constitution. Through, you know, legislation. He's talking out of his ass.
also weird since he definitely thought it was worth it to probe hunter biden despite being a private citizen
Have you seen the size of Hunter's hammer?
I'd probe him too.
If like to be probed by Hunter.
'Oh Hunter, probe my like one of your French hookers.'
It's the billionaires he is saying are private citizens, he's trying to protect his doners from humiliation
He's afraid that we'll find out he was involved in blackmailing Anthony Kennedy.
