Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) told Donald Trump to bring it on after the president-elect said members of the House committee that investigated the Trump-incited U.S. Capitol riot should go to jail.
Kinzinger, a fierce and yearslong critic of Trump, was on the panel whose findings accused the returning POTUS of deliberately plotting to overturn his 2020 election loss to Joe Biden.
Trumps threat, though, is nothing more than the desperate howl of a man who knows history will regard him with shame, Kinzinger wrote in the latest issue of his Substack newsletter.
Let me be clear: we did nothing wrong, the ex-lawmaker added, noting how the committee was driven by facts, the Constitution, and the pursuit of accountabilityprinciples that seem foreign to Trump.

And, I've met him and GFY is something I believe he would actually say if he got mad!
