What he says in his quote is right. That is not a legitimate role of government. That does not mean you cannot investigate any politician. If one is needed, it should be performed by someone that wouldn't stand to gain from said investigation.Oh, let's start off with that swamp creature Mitt Romney.
“It is not the legitimate role of government, for Congress or for taxpayer expense, to be used as an effort to damage political opponents,” Romney said blasting the Senate Homeland Security Committee’s probe into Hunter Biden’s dealings with Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings.
By this logic no politician can be investigated as it can be construed as "an effort to damage political opponents".

Remind me again, what were Romney's thoughts on the millions of taxpayer dollars we spent investigating the Russia hoax, and then the impeachment effort over assumptions and the telephone game among bureaucrats who forgot their role in foreign policy?Oh, let's start off with that swamp creature Mitt Romney.

'Bammy care is about control. Repeal that and you best pack your bags because you won't be seeing DC no more.

As for the Biden investigation, should congress be investigating a citizen like that? I personally am tired of the circus that congress has become. They need to remove cameras from those hearings to limit the show boating that goes on by these idiots.
Is obammy care repealed yet?
I seem to recall a bunch of Republicans swearing up and down how they would repeal obammy care.
You just tied yourself into knots with this one.
So the justice department, FBI, and even CIA cannot investigate a former VP if he is a candidate against the sitting administration? Does this only apply to republican and democratic candidates or to all of them? Great loophole you're building there...
So a former politician cannot be investigated by congress when he becomes a private citizen?
Hunter was never VP.Senate Homeland Security Committee’s probe into Hunter Biden’s dealings with Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings.
Hunter was never VP.
Eisenhower warned the citizens about the military/industrial complex in the 50s.When did what's being called the swamp actually come into being? 50's? '60's?
I'd go with much earlier.
Eisenhower warned the citizens about the military/industrial complex in the 50s.
Lincoln did in the 60s, the 1860s.
I imagine the swamp in some form has been around as long as
Government.
Here is my take. I don’t like congress investigating anyone, because it will ALWAYS be political. Both sides will use it as a weapon, even the “side” most of us here tend to lean towards; and that is wrong. If there was a crime, let the law enforcement arm of government do their jobs; regardless of who the accused is. We all know that tends to not happen, so where do we go from there? I still adamantly opposes purely political investigations, even against the side I disagree with. We need better people in government, people with integrity and honor. Won’t happen more than likely, but I can hope.
