MTG pushes using “Holman Rule” to STOP Dems weaponization of FBI and DOJ…

From Revolver.news (April 14):

This past week has been a real eye-opener for a lot of Americans, who are just realizing the Democrats have fully weaponized the FBI and DOJ. Even though this power-grab has been going on for quite some time, Douglass Mackey’s felony conviction for sharing an anti-Hillary meme, and President Trump’s arrest and indictment have awakened many Americans to the communist takeover by the left.

Nobody is fighting back harder than President Trump, who’s urging the spineless GOP to defund the FBI and DOJ, in order to stop Democrats from destroying more American lives.

Here’s what Trump said on Truth social:

“REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS SHOULD DEFUND THE DOJ AND FBI UNTIL THEY COME TO THEIR SENSES. THE DEMOCRATS HAVE TOTALLY WEAPONIZED LAW ENFORCEMENT IN OUR COUNTRY AND ARE VICIOUSLY USING THIS ABUSE OF POWER TO INTERFERE WITH OUR ALREADY UNDER SIEGE ELECTIONS!”

Marjorie Taylor Greene responded to President Trump’s statement by suggesting the GOP use the “Holman Rule” to stop the Dems weaponization of the FBI and DOJ.

So what does that mean exactly? What is the Holman Rule and how can it be used to stop the Dems communist plot? Here’s what Wikipedia says about the rule:

The Holman rule is a rule in the United States House of Representatives that allows amendments to appropriations legislation that would reduce the salary of or fire specific federal employees, or cut a specific program.

Invoking the Holman Rule would allow Congress to take funds away from the DOJ and FBI, thus limiting their power. Newsweek:

Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene suggested reinstating the Holman Rule in response to Donald Trump urging Republicans in Congress to “defund” the FBI and Department of Justice.

Trump on Wednesday accused Democrats of weaponizing law enforcement as the former president called for defunding the FBI and DOJ only a day after he was arrested and arraigned on 34 counts of falsifying business records.

The Holman Rule was introduced to the House of Representatives in 1876 and allowed members of Congress to propose amendments to appropriations bills that target specific programs or individuals, including federal employees. Programs and specific workers can be stripped of pay or fired under the rule. Changes can also be made to a specific agency, office, or program.

Back in November, Greene vowed Republicans would  reinstate the Holman Rule  after they took control of the House. Subsequently, the “Holman” passed as part of the official rules package that governs the House under Speaker McCarthy.

The question now is will they use it?

The GOP has the weapon needed to strike a blow against the regime’s agenda, so what are they waiting for? [source]

Good for her!
