Adam Kinzinger Rips Trump For Being 'Obsessed' With Jan. 6 Committee In Blistering Rant

After President Trump claimed President Biden's pardons of the January 6 committee were "void," former GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger told Trump to "bring it on" in a viral video.

Former Republican Illinois Representative Adam Kinzinger mocked President Donald Trump after Trump claimed former President Joe Biden's pardons of the January 6 committee were "void," telling Trump to "bring it on" in a video posted to his official X account.

In the final hours of his presidency, Biden issued a series of preemptive pardons, including ones for his relatives, all members of the House committee that investigated the January 6 attack—such as former Congresswoman Liz Cheney—and several of former Trump’s most prominent adversaries, including General Mark Milley and Dr. Anthony Fauci.


Trump, in a post on Truth Social, alleged that Biden’s pardons were signed using an autopen, citing a report that claimed the Biden White House frequently relied on the mechanical device. The report, published by the Oversight Project, a branch of the Heritage Foundation, has been used by commentators to fuel claims about Biden’s cognitive decline.

He went on to attack members of the House Select Committee tasked with investigating the January 6 insurrection, insisting once again that they'd engaged in a "political witch hunt" against him despite the part he played in the violent attack on the U.S. Capitol that was spurred by the lies he told about the 2020 election result.

Citing no evidence, Trump claimed members of the committee—a group that includes Kinzinger—"were probably responsible for the Documents that were signed on their behalf without the knowledge or consent of the Worst President in the History of our Country, Crooked Joe Biden!"

But Kinzinger was unfazed by these threats, making the following statements in the video he shared on social media:

"I saw that Trump is threatening the January 6 committee again. Listen, this dude knows, he knows this is the thing that embarrasses him. He won't admit this embarrasses him because he's trying to pretend like he didn't do anything."
"He's obsessed. He's more obsessed with me and Liz Cheney than his friggin' golf score. Hey Trump, bring it on, dude! You weak, whiny, tiny man."
"By the way, I saw a picture of you this weekend. You're hiking up your pants now to just below your man boobs and you're sweating so much."
"Bring it, man. Stop with all the big-mouth talking stuff. You're a grown man. You don't talk like one but you're a grown man. C'mon dude, bring it."

You can hear what Kinzinger said in the video below.

Many appreciated Kinzinger's response—and shared similar criticisms of Trump.


Trump has made clear his plan to leverage the Justice Department, particularly the FBI, to target his political adversaries, despite a lack of specific allegations of legal wrongdoing by those opponents. Supporters of Biden's preemptive pardons argue that such measures are essential to counter unprecedented threats, protecting both the individuals targeted by Trump’s retaliation and the integrity of the justice system as a whole.

Trump has repeatedly claimed that members of the House Select Committee either "deleted or destroyed evidence" during their investigation, though this is false.

The committee published an extensive 845-page report documenting Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. The report included testimony from numerous Republicans who had worked closely with both the former president and then-Vice President Mike Pence.

All evidence is available online.

Robots labeled 'Star Wars' slur

Artificial Intelligence and robots can thank the droids from Star Wars for the internet-appropriated slur “clanker,” which has been used to insult real-world technology as automation slowly creeps into and takes over daily life.

According to Wookieepedia (yeah, I went there), the word “clanker” was first used as a slang term because the joints of the droids would, well, clank against their metal bodies.

'South Park' Epically Skewered Trump And Paramount In Their Season Premiere—And We're Grabbing The Popcorn

After two years, season 27 of South Park premiered on Wednesday and featured more of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump than most people ever want to see. The 79-year-old POTUS, his attempts to dodge his promise to release the Epstein files, and his frivolous lawsuits—as well as the parties that pay him off—were skewered by creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone.

Longtime fans of the show will be disappointed to learn Satan—yes, King of Hell Satan—has gone back to another man who's no good for him. Satan left Saddam Hussein—an abusive and manipulative partner—with the help of Kenny in the movie South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut. After his relationship with gentle, caring Chris ended, Satan has gone back to another narcissistic liar—Donald Trump.
