Senate Judiciary Committee Republicans

Senate Judiciary Committee Republicans Its broad legislative jurisdiction has assured its primary role as a forum for the public discussion of social and constitutional issues.

Established in 1816 as one of the original standing committees in the United States Senate, the Senate Committee on the Judiciary is one of the most influential committees in Congress. The Committee is also responsible for oversight of key activities of the executive branch, and is responsible for the initial stages of the confirmation process of all judicial nominations for the federal judiciary. The delegates to the Constitutional Convention of 1787 did not provide for congressional committees when they drafted the Constitution of the United States. Nevertheless, a select committee of eight Senators, often suggested to be the precursor to the present-day Judiciary Committee, was appointed one day after the Senate first convened in 1789. The select committee was tasked with drafting what would become the Judiciary Act of 1789. This landmark Act established the present three-tiered hierarchy of the federal judiciary, and the Office of the Attorney General. Temporary committees commonly convened in the House and Senate during the early years of Congress. The small size of Congress made it unnecessary to create permanent committees. In the Senate, ad hoc committees were comprised of three to five members depending on the issues assigned. These committees met as needed to discuss issues at their desks in the Senate chamber. The rapid growth of the nation after the turn of the 19th century and the increase in the number of members of Congress resulted in greater complexity in the federal lawmaking process. Elected officials in both the Senate and House recognized that the legislative business of the rapidly expanding country could no longer be addressed within the structure of select committees. In a resolution adopted on December 10, 1816, the Senate established the body's original standing committees, including the Committee on the Judiciary. The House Judiciary committee had been established three years earlier.

EXPOSED: Biden's DOJ collected personal data on more than 639,000 Republican voters and donors during Jack Smith's Arctic Frost probe, according to a new memo from Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley.

The memo noted that spreadsheets included names, dates of birth, physical addresses, credit card information, donation amounts, and whether each person was a registered Republican, among other identifiers.

Grassley says the data collection went far beyond what was necessary to fulfill Smith's special counsel mandate and amounted to mapping out the entire Republican Party apparatus.

🚨 Chairman Chuck Grassley reveals SHOCKING new whistleblower discovery in explosive memo today: Jack Smith & Biden DOJ obtained personal data for over HALF A MILLION Republican donors, voters and supporters.

At least 639,000 Americans’ data was scooped up by Smith and his team.

"Smith and the Biden Justice Department collected incredibly invasive donor data – and voter data – beyond what could conceivably be necessary for Smith or his team to fulfill the Special Counsel’s mandate."

🚨 BREAKING: Chairman Chuck Grassley SLAMS Judiciary Committee Democrats for "falling over themselves" defending Jack Smith's unlawful and unconstitutional actions.

Grassley revealed Smith targeted nearly 5,000 Americans for the false crime of donating to Republicans. Instead of standing up for their constituents, Democrats want an apology for weaponizer-in-chief Jack Smith.

Republicans aren’t backing down, and they won’t apologize for fighting for accountability.

🚨 Chairman Chuck Grassley, United States Senator Mike Lee and U.S. Senator Susan Collins are calling on the Trump administration to protect American families from deadly kratom and semi-synthetic substances like 7-OH.

Federal scheduling would keep these addictive drugs off gas station shelves and out of the hands of our nation's children.

Chairman Chuck Grassley: "This meeting occurred during Jack Smith’s time as Special Counsel & constitutes ‘consultation or counsel’ from John Brennan to Smith & his team. Smith’s response before the Senate Judiciary Committee was highly evasive & misleading, at minimum."

Declassified FBI memo reveals Jack Smith's team met with Trump-critic and former CIA director John Brennan to discuss Trump's case, despite Smith telling GOP lawmakers he had never met Brennan before.

In 2021, AG Garland issued a memo that directed the FBI to target concerned parents who spoke out during school board meetings.

Today, The United States Department of Justice released a report confirming the Biden DOJ and White House worked to chill parental and free speech rights, labeling innocent parents as "domestic terrorists."

Another example of runaway Democrat government.

Today, the Justice Department’s Weaponization Working Group issued a report detailing how Biden Administration officials at the Department of Justice explored avenues to prosecute parents and protestors who spoke to school boards and school officials during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Records show Biden White House and Justice Department leadership pushed for a memo which sought to find a federal “hook” to prosecute parents and charge protestors with federal crimes, despite widespread concerns from attorneys and agents.

This report follows letters sent earlier today by Department of Justice and U.S. Department of Education leadership to all 50 state attorneys general on parental rights.
