Its the stock disingenous right wing argument, (Oh you'll vote for Obama but not Mia Love?) which isnt a shock considering Greenwald started out a Ron Paul stan.

Yup. That's where we need to start pending good news in November.
The investigations could obviously be held (a Democratic House is going to have so, so much to investigate; indeed, I expect that will be its primary occupation in the two years until the election, since with Trump in the White House there won't be much in the way of actual lawmaking going on).

They probably changed the tense and then added the sentence at the end
Celebrating over a decade of public service and saying farewell to a colleague isn't salt.
