This seems misleading, what I read earlier seemed to be saying that one or more of the other Rs on this committee aren't willing to vote for subpoenas, but Johnson wouldn't name them. Maybe we shouldn't assume it's all of them.
You ever heard of a conspiracy of silence? You know how a snobby club works when they are voting on new members and there's a candidate nobody really objects to but nobody really likes? Nobody has to actively say anything. They just have to withhold their nod and the thing fails by acquiesence. The more political the organization, like the Senate, the more gets done by withholding and prevarication. They always have to keep their options open and being too vociferous or dogmatic gets them labeled and categorized, and it gives their enemies something to quote to use against them in the future. No. All these RINOs have to do is be squishy or silent and the coup succeeds.
I agree, so we should call them out for not calling out their colleagues. That's not how this post (OP) reads to me. Personally I think Rand's legit even if a lot of this forum dislikes him, and Hawley at least acts like he has testicles, but we should hold them all accountable.

I should add that includes Johnson for not naming names.
Ah, blackballing pledges...
