'It's gotta stop for the sake of America': Biden chastises GOP for targeting Republicans who supported infrastructure bill
CNN
President Joe Biden on Tuesday called on Republicans to stop pursuing retaliation against 13 members of their party who voted to pass the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill in the House last week, saying he's never seen things this way in Congress.
Some conservative House Republicans have discussed booting those GOP colleagues from committee spots, even though the effort faces little chance of succeeding. And former President Donald Trump has been privately criticizing the 13 Republicans who voted to pass the bill, questioning why they would give Biden a win when he's struggling in the polls, according to a GOP source.
"Well, I'm hoping, Jaime, that we can get back to a place where there's more civility in politics," Biden said in conversation with Democratic National Committee Chair Jaime Harrison during a grassroots town hall. "I really mean it. And I've never seen it this way."

The House Judiciary Committee is demanding interviews with four current and former Department of Justice officials who were involved in subpoenaing phone records for several members of Congress around the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack, the day before Republicans interview former special counsel Jack Smith.
