WASHINGTON, Nov 19 (Reuters) - The U.S. House of Representatives was expected to vote on Wednesday to repeal a controversial provision allowing senators to sue federal investigators for $500,000 over unannounced phone record searches, in the latest sign of fraying Republican unity 10 months into President Donald Trump's second term.
The widely criticized Senate provision, tucked into an unrelated funding bill that ended the longest government shutdown in U.S. history last week, would allow eight Republican senators to seek millions of dollars in damages for alleged privacy violations stemming from Democratic President Joe Biden administration's investigation of the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol by Trump supporters.

My bet is the provision stands and the Senators sue. The Democrats and Biden administration fucked up, yet again.
 
The House on Wednesday voted to repeal a measure that creates a new legal avenue for senators to sue the government for at least $500,000 each if federal investigators access their phone records without notifying them.

The unanimous 426-to-0 vote reflected the deep well of bipartisan fury that built up over the provision, quietly inserted by Senate Republicans into legislation to reopen the government, that blindsided senior lawmakers overseeing spending bills.

How were the House Democrats attempting a coup by investigating Trump's violent attack on Jan. 6?

By holding a one-sided show trial that was a blatant attempt to implicate the whole of the Republican party. Why do you think that the Democrats, contrary to House rules, custom, and tradition, refused to seat the members the Republicans selected for that committee and instead took the two most virulent anti-Trump / TDS Republicans in the House onto their committee in a futile attempt to make it look "bipartisan?"

You should note that it cost both Republicans their seats.

What law or ethical code does that violate?

The Select Committee did not function within the bounds of the Select Committee's own rules, nor House Rules, because the Select Committee had no Ranking Member of the Minority. Vice-chair Liz Cheney was not a Ranking Member. Therefore, the Select Committee violated House Rules, and its own rules, by attempting to compel Mr. Bannon to appear for a deposition without notifying a Ranking Member.

The investigation was fair and honest.

Trump paid Cheney and Kinsinger in kind. They were ready for that.

You know that Trump and Jo are not at the funeral today.
