Finally, real accountability is beginning to sweep through Washington as Rep. James Comer and the House Oversight Committee stop pretending the swamp can police itself. Comer has issued subpoenas demanding testimony from major players tied to the Epstein scandal, including former FBI Director James Comey, signaling that the committee intends to pull back the curtain on years of elite cover-ups and political favoritism.
Comer explained on Fox News that this is about returning power to the people and making unelected bureaucrats answer for their actions, not about partisan theater. While the liberal media whines, conservatives know oversight is the last line of defense against a politicized federal government that thinks it’s above the law.
At the same time, the country is feeling the bite of a government shutdown that began on October 1, 2025, the predictable result of a reckless spending culture and Democratic unwillingness to negotiate in good faith. Americans are rightly frustrated as hundreds of thousands of federal workers face furloughs and critical services are disrupted, consequences the Biden-era leadership and congressional Democrats brought on by refusing to prioritize taxpayers.
Make no mistake: subpoenaing figures like Comey is not a vendetta, it’s a necessary step to expose how the DOJ and FBI have too often protected the powerful while ordinary citizens suffered. If Comey and other long-entrenched officials have nothing to hide, they’ll come and answer for their decisions—if they refuse, the American people will draw their own conclusions about who in Washington is defending democracy and who is merely defending themselves.
Meanwhile, Democrats and their media allies will scream “distraction” as the House does its job, but the public sees through it. House Republicans led by Comer are offering a simple promise: stop the cover-ups, secure the border, and return fiscal sanity — priorities that actually serve hardworking Americans rather than donor-class interests.
This is a moment for patriots to rally behind oversight, not cower at the media’s outrage machine; we need a Congress willing to confront corruption, restore law and order, and defend taxpayers. Comer’s actions prove Republicans can do both — hold the line on spending and force transparency from the deep state — and conservatives should be loud in their support until Washington finally starts working for the people again.
