The House Klown Kar will run over itself rather than anyone else.... they comically self-destructed in almost every stupid political prosecution they undertook in the last 4 years.

Their true calling seems to be in beclowning themselves publicly.

Is this a joke or what? Let me guess about their conclusion; Joe Biden caused the ebtire riiot, etc. by winning the election in 2020! So it was all Joe's fault; could have been prevented if he had just conceded to Trump!

"In a statement Wednesday, Loudermilk said, "What happened at the Capitol that day was the result of a series of intelligence, security, and leadership failures at multiple levels within numerous entities."

I love Loudermilk; wouldn't it be a great plot twist if he entered politics?

Wow, is Mike Johnson a clear and present enemy of our Constitutional Republic, he is so greedy for power that he is going along with those who violently assaulted police as the mob tried to coup their way to power.

Great ! I'm glad they're spending their time on this important investigation, rather than fund FEMA, or raise the debt limit, or all those other 'busywork' things that get in the way of being on cable TV all the livelong day...

They missed the last J6 investigation. So they need to do another one.

Just ask any of them. They will tell you they never saw the videos of violence or anything.

"100 percent, I'm for the -- pardon everyone. They've been there long enough. Most of them hadn't been charged with anything," Tuberville told the news station.

ABC News then asked Tuberville about rioters who attacked police officers, beating them with fire hydrants and metal batons.

"I didn't see that," Tuberville told ABC News.

When asked if that's acceptable, Tuberville said "No, that's not acceptable, but I didn't see it. I don't believe it because I didn't see it. Now, if I see it, I would believe it, but I didn't see in that video."

Aren't they the ones concerned about wasteful spending?

Well, I guess those people who thought pardons would just lay all the J6 invesigations to rest and get the GOP to governing the country were wrong.

They won't let it go - and it will be interesting to see how they divert from the obvious actions of their leader - one Don Trump.

Get your popcorn ready.

How do you prepare a report and ignore Trump rejecting phone calls and sitting in the WH for nearly three hours before doing anything?

Maybe they'll have blank pages in that part of the report :)

I though republicans said they they weren't looking backward?

I think they shouldn't allow any Democrats on the panel and have a television crew broadcast it prime time. That would make it about as serious as the first one. They should coach witnesses and destroy evidence.

You don't want any honest assessment of January the 6th. You really don't.

BullBringer is a full blown deplorable Trumping MAGAt who's been downplaying and lying about 1/6 since 1/6.

Those are his people.

Ignorant, hateful and angry.

They are the Republican Party.

Clonwshack is among the clowns who equate 1/6 with a mass extinction event.
