Reparations For MAGA? McCarthy Says Yes

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., is not only getting ready for the GOP majority in the aftermath of the 2022 midterm elections, but he is also ramping up attempts for following punishment for Democrats crusading to take down the Trump Administration officials in probes.

McCarthy is preparing "preservation notices" for President Joe Biden's Cabinet for them to save communications and data for future oversight in Congress, Axios reported Sunday.

The probes will not be able to be conducted in a Democrat-led Congress, but in the event Republicans take over, McCarthy's preservation notices to the Biden Administration might prove beneficial to produce probes of Democrats as they have conducted of the Trump Administration, including the Mueller Report, Ukraine, COVID-19, and Jan. 6.

The Republicans investigative curiosity is piqued by the deadly Afghanistan withdrawal, but there are several other areas where inspection might only be called to the forefront by the GOP, including, as Axios reported:

Origins of COVID-19; Leak of IRS data about billionaires; Alleged National Security Agency spying on Fox News host Tucker Carlson; Attorney General Merrick Garland's memo mobilizing the FBI and Justice Department attorneys to look into investigating and prosecuting local school board protests; Mass illegal immigration; Communications with teachers unions on COVID-19 lockdowns and mask mandates, and Cloud-computing contract known as J.E.D.I.

McCarthy will be adding staff, counsel, and resources to investigate a number of Republican interests in oversight of the Biden Administration and Democrats in Congress, according to Axios.

Republicans want to deflect attention from the Jan 6 Commission, a real-time probe of real violence, death, and looting in the Capitol.

As a prelude, in August House Republicans sent Biden a request to "preserve all records related to your Administration’s withdrawal ... from Afghanistan."

Probes planned by House Republicans — in parallel with their legislative agenda — show they hope to use congressional power to stoke culture wars for 2024:

McCarthy then plans to beef up staff, counsel, and other resources to be ready to extract information beginning Day 1 if the GOP gets control.
