Donald Trump blasted Republicans in the Senate this week for not being mean enough to President Biden. Trump said on Truth Social that Republicans in the House were doing a great job of "exposing" the Biden administration, but then said that the Senate isn't doing anything at all to deal with Biden's alleged corruption. There's a very good reason that House Republicans are able to do something that Senate Republicans are not, and it has nothing to do with who holds the majority power, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

Another federal indictment from Jack Smith decided this week that his best course of action would be to lash out at Republicans in the US Senate for not doing enough to take on the most corrupt administration in history. And no, he, he's not talking about his former administration. He is talking about the Biden administration. And Donald Trump attacked Republicans in the Senate for not going as aggressive against Biden as their counterparts in the House of Representatives had. Because as we know, Republicans in the House have spent roughly seven straight months now investigating Biden, investigating his son, investigating their businesses, investigating everything this family has done. And so far they've come up with absolutely nothing. But they totally swear if you just give 'em a little more time, they're definitely gonna come up with something. And Trump wants the Republicans and the Senate to do the same thing, but they have enough good sense not to do it. Here's what Trump put on true social. Joe Biden is the most corrupt president in the history of the United States, which is being undeniably proven in the House of Representatives every single day. But with all these horrible revelations and facts, why hasn't Republican leadership in the Senate spoken up and rebuked crooked Joe Biden and the radical left Democrats, fascists, and Marxists for their criminal acts against our country, some of them against me. How long does America have to wait for the Senate to act? He says, um, keep waiting Bud. First and foremost, let me go ahead and dispel what the lie that you told there. Like the house is uncovering stuff every day. No they haven't. They have hearsay, they have conjecture, they have testimony from people who are facing pretty massive criminal charges themselves. That's not evidence. Nobody has been able to produce hard actual evidence that would stand up in court. You have a bunch of people whose testimony would've, uh, off the bat in court, basically be subject to scrutiny because of their own criminal problems. So none of that would hold up. You would not be able to secure a conviction based on anything Republicans have come up with. Especially because not only is it coming from people who are under indictment or have now been indicted, but because nobody has evidence to back it up. And some of them are even paid by your good friend Donald Trump Cash Patel. So yeah, all of it should be taken with a grain of salt because nobody's proven anything. Now, here's the other issue. The reason Republicans in the Senate have not been going as aggressive against the Biden administration on the issue of corruption as those in the house. It's a very simple reason, and it's a very obvious reason, but it's not the reason everybody's thinking because you're thinking, well, the reason the Senate's not doing it is because the Democrats hold the majority, but they do. Republicans have the majority in the house so they can do it. That's not the reason. Mm-hmm. No, no, no. That's, that's what everybody wants to think, right? That's the easy answer. But it's the wrong answer. The reason Republicans in the Senate are not going on this same wild goose chase that Republicans in the house are going on is because most of the Republicans in the
