Two years after riotous mob attacked the Capitol, violently seeking to block the results of a presidential election, only a minority of Republicans are willing to say Jan. 6 was a bad or tragic day for America.

From the Honorable Tammy Duckworth this morning: “Two years ago today. This is what my office looked like after violent insurrectionists breached our nation’s Capitol and threatened the peaceful transfer of power.

Every person—no matter how powerful—that participated in the January 6th insurrection must be held accountable.”

We will never forget the tasing and assaulting of Officer Fanone who nearly died on January 6th. These are the traitors who Kevin McCarthy defends and gives cover to along with the unindicted insurrectionists who are laughing as they make a clown show of our institution of Congress…enough!

I feel like I'm losing my mind when people say it would be an unprecedented level of awful if the people who started a riot to try to steal an election weren't unpunished...

that's EXACTLY what happened already with the Brooks Brothers Riot

While the clown show of the insurrectionists continues tomorrow to placate the empty suit Kevin McCarthy…let us not be distracted nor ever forget what tomorrow is really about and who sitting in the House Chamber should be indicted…now!

Asked by lawmakers this year to describe those who attacked the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, Officer Daniel Hodges of the D.C. police told the House select committee tasked with investigating the insurrection that "it was clear the terrorists perceived themselves to be Christians." washingtonpost.com/religion/20

Chairman Thompson said the will make public the bulk of the nonsensitive material it has compiled.
What happens to the rest of the evidence & how long will you have to wait to see it?
It could take decades, if it's released at all.
