The Republican National Committee filed a lawsuit Wednesday against the House panel investigating last year's attack on the Capitol, arguing the congressional committee is seeking potentially confidential information on RNC members.
The lawsuit takes aim at a February subpoena to Salesforce that the Jan. 6 committee said focuses on emails from the RNC in the weeks before the attack on the Capitol saying the 2020 election was stolen. The RNC called the subpoena a “fishing expedition" that could expose its strategies and personal information of its members and donors. The suit names House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and members of the congressional committee as defendants.

I am glad to see that something has gotten them to get off their flabby behinds, but it would be nice if they put forth this kind of effort on alot of fronts, i.e., the Jan. 6 political prisoners, the climate change hoax, the stolen election just to name a few.

Good luck with that. I use Salesforce software daily at work. From time to time, there are ads for their conferences. Every stinkin leftist from Michelle Obama down seems to be the keynote speaker. None of them could sell their way out of a paper bag.
My guess is the witch hunt committee already has their data.

Just yesterday, I received yet another fund raising letter from the RNC. I dropped it into the outdoor trash bin before I entered my house. After decades of appeals from them, with no response from me, you’d think they would just quit trying.

This will force the January Sixth committee to prove that the claims of a stolen election were false, unless they get the usual Leftist judge.
I take satisfaction in knowing that my information was not stolen because I am no longer on the RNC donor list. They are a bunch of useless anti-Trump whiners who let a presidency slip away from them. Why donate and vote when it's still most likely a useless gesture?

#5, They will never stop. Once you dip your toe into the RNC by making a small donation you are theirs for life.

I am sick to death of the empty screeching of “Mis, Dis. Mal.“ with no solid proof. Up goes the shriek and now that topic is Verboten and penalties on who ever speaks those topics even if they are true. Never back down from the election fraud claim, we all know there was excessive fraud. You can’t fix yesterday but you are obliged to fix today. Politicians need to bark back and shine the light on false accusations. Dad people, unlike illegal aliens and criminals cannot vote.

As regards #5 and #7, as you know, keeping in mind that donor lists are public record, the RNC will not relent and continue pressuring you into donating again using its snarky texts, emails, and mailings. In the western Colorado county where I live I even changed my party affiliation to "Unaffiliated" after January 6, 2021 and the begathon from the RNC continues unabated. An identity change might be the only possible way out. I wish that donating anonymously was possible.

Good!!....this is just another case of spying on their opponents...like the Dems..well actually obama and Valerie did on President Trump's Trump Tower while he was running for office...obama weaponized the FBI and cia and all the other alphabet groups to trump...pardon the pun...up charges so they could know what he was saying and doing...it's always just within the law so they can claim "intent"...as crooked hillary did with her destroying the evidence...and Sandy Burger hiding classified papers in his socks...remember that during the crooked Clinton nightmare...

But the RNC won't sue anybody over the illegal detention of the J6ers. I think this is the first subpoena ever issued by the Republicans, and this to protect their emails.
