Democrats are itching to launch as many investigations into the Trump administration as possible, but thanks to GOP House leadership stepping up, that's not going to happen anytime soon.

According to Newsmax, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson of Louisiana advanced a measure through the House Rules Committee that would prevent Democrats "from bringing resolutions of inquiry to the House floor until Oct. 1."

The measure passed the House fairly easily in a 216-208 vote this week.

The rule will assist in protecting President Donald Trump from having to deal with Trump Derangement Syndrome-ridden House Democrats from pulling investigation stunts that only serve to disrupt his administration.

What's happening?

The procedural rule, according to House Republican leadership, is meant to prevent Democrats from pulling "stunts" in the form of going after the Trump administration for any of its actions in the first 100 days in office.

Speaker Johnson held nothing back when describing the reason for passing the procedural rule, calling Democrats' potential investigations a "waste of time."

"We're using the rules of the Houses to prevent political hijinks and political stunts," Johnson said at a GOP leadership press conference Tuesday, the Washington Examiner reported. "So we're preventing this nonsensical waste of time."

The Republican House Speaker added that Democrats "showed us over the last four years, last eight years — they used lawfare, they used conspiracy theories, all these political weapons to just go after the president and make his life miserable."

Newsmax reported:

Democrats had already filed a number of inquiries, which allow lawmakers to demand information from the president or heads of departments, according to The Hill. Democrats had filed them on the Signal snafu, the work of Elon Musk at the Department of Government Efficiency and charges of conflicts of interest regarding Trump's senior adviser, according to the reports.

Given their parliamentary status, the inquiries can be forced to the House floor for a vote after a certain number of days without the speaker's permission.

That just won't happen for five months, the outlet added.

Clogging up the process

Rep. Michelle Fischbach of Minnesota, a Republican on the Rules Committee, explained why the rule was passed.

"We're in the middle of a lot of things right now. We're in the middle of reconciliation; we're looking at all kinds of things right now. We're very busy, and plain and simple," said Fischbach.

She added, "Democrats are using this to clog things up and stop us from doing our business for the American people."a

While Trump continues to battle activist federal judges as he attempts to move his administration forward, at least he won't have to worry about House Democrats for a spell.

Hopefully, Speaker Johnson will extend the rule when the time comes to do so.
