They may.

But if you’re still harboring the fantasy that you’re part of some imaginary “silent majority”, you’ll be disappointed.

And the world is tired of Trump and the BS that never stops coming out of the mouths of his mob.

They disgraced and dishonored their country.

I doubt that there will be any groundswell to bring that back.

And you guys impeached him for it. Strip him naked and public flogging? Anal probes? Will anything make you happy?

No, he wasn’t impeached for that. He only had two weeks left in office.

He may be charged at some point. That remains to be seen.

McCarthy is operating with the (S/I/T) Trump brain in which isn't much to brag about. This is the power play to hopefully scare as many Repubs by stripping them of their Committee assignments. That's what (S/I/T) Trump would have done. That and slam them with nasty tweets. Lets hope that the 6 Repubs show some backbone and stay the course. Lets see if McCarthy will testify before the Committee without tucking his quivering tail between his butt cheeks.

Not really. A colleague at work falsely accuses you a being a criminal, most people would not stay silent and would call them out.

Yes, because the current incarnation of the GOP is SO DAMN MATURE, and the public is REALLY MAD about what Hamish said on DP.

LOL

Well, now I guess we're gonna find out, aren't we?

Too bad your guys walked away from the table, right?
 
Rawley said:
How's that?

Well, the dems offered the GOP equal representation in the investigation, and their own picks.

But the GOP had to attention whore.

So now we're going to find out if those accused GOP congressmen actually did anything wrong.

If you know what I mean. And I think you do.

Trumps actions and words since November have guaranteed he will never be given the keys to the WH.

His supporters fail to realize just how damaging the insurrection of Jan 6 was to the Trump brand.

I just hope they find out why the Metro Police wave the protesters past that barricades.
Why Pelosi refused the National Guard support when they offered because they knew things would happen.
Why John Sullivan had contracts written, signed, and got paid >$70K from CNN & NBC for his fottage of the protest, before Jan 6th.
And why Antifa were braking in to the capital !

Becase to this Day there has been no charges of "Insurrection" ! I think just Vandalizm so far...

And what about the black cop that shot an unarmed protester coming through one the Capitol doors? How come we don't know who he is?
The only person shot and killed was a woman who was not attacking anyone.
Just coming through a window in a door.
 
Every news day there are scenes of the Jan 6th riot at the Capitol Bldg.
Can someone please explain to me in simple terms why another investigation is needed to find out the root cause of the riot on that day?
Will it convince anyone to think differently about that day?

Does anyone really believe this effort to "investigate" the riot is anything but a bald-faced attempt to connect Trump to the riot so that it drags out well into next year just before the mid-term elections?

Pelosi is so transparent in her hatred for Trump as well as her desperate attempt to hang onto power after November 2022.
She couldn't care less about seeking the truth and helping citizens understand what caused the riot.

Again, just like the Russian collusion witch hunt, tax payers' dollars will be used to chase after meaningless information so that Trump will be smeared well into 2022.

Trump supporters literally were the ones that attacked the Capitol. That is not what happened in Benghazi. Terrorists attacked that embassy. President Obama did not encourage or lie to the terrorists to cause or even encourage the attack to happen on the embassy. Trump, as President, did lie to his supporters to encourage them to attack the Capitol.

No, he didn’t…

Yes, he did lie to them and he and his allies, those speaking at his various rallies, repeating the lie that the election was stolen absolutely encouraged these guys to attack and even presented it as if they would legally be supported in doing it by the President and his various allies.

That involves dealing with white supremacists, which Republicans will oppose. They are a rabid part of their base.

So you say...But your problem is, that YOU don't get to define your opponent, and have it be true...Just admit it...The thing that really bothers your authortarians is the freedom of speech isn't it?

No, it's not. It is what happened. Denial doesn't change reality.

Video: Day of Rage: How Trump Supporters Took the U.S. Capitol

A six-month Times investigation has synchronized and mapped out thousands of videos and police radio communications from the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, providing the most complete picture to date of what happened — and why.

And there is plenty of evidence that Trump has lied over and over again about the election.
