“My Preciousssss”
As Nancy Pelosi famously said, the only qualification to be Speaker of the House is to know how to count.
Oops:
In an apparent error, House Republicans passed a resolution on Tuesday that would give Democrats a supermajority on a new select subcommittee probing the “weaponization” of the government.
In a resolution that sought to expand the committee to 13 members up to 21, drafters made an apparent typo, which was first noted by Politico’s Kyle Cheney.
The resolution, put forward by House Majority Leader Steve Scalise and passed by voice vote, stated that the subcommittee would have “not more than 12” members, and that “not more than 9 shall be appointed in consultation with the minority leader.”
That would give Democrats a 9-3 supermajority. In reality, the plan is for the committee to have 12 Republican members and 9 Democratic members, and the error will almost certainly be corrected before the committee convenes.
Have we mentioned that 15-votes K-Mac is really bad at his job?
This is destined to be the clown shrapnel and flaming weasels committee , isn’t it.

Also a perfect example of how republicans have forgotten how to govern.
Destiny, destiny there’s no going back for them.

The Dems need to take squirt guns to that committee’s meetings.
