How House Republicans plan to rewrite history of Jan. 6

A new House panel will re-investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol attack with an eye toward recasting the narrative about the events in Washington that day.

It’s the latest sign that the deadly riot remains a wound on Congress that might never fully heal amid ferocious partisan sparring. Retribution, not reconciliation, appears to be the prime motivation behind the new probe, with the Republicans behind it still bitter over the work of the panel’s previous iteration, which was largely led by Democrats and concluded President Donald Trump was singularly to blame for the violence inflicted by his supporters.

One GOP member of the new panel, Louisiana Rep. Clay Higgins, did not rule out questioning members of the prior committee.

“They were not invested in actual investigative work anyway,” said Higgins, who has pushed an unfounded theory that FBI agents helped coordinate the events at the Capitol. “That thing was never legitimate. It was always biased. And therefore, if we question them, it may be with the angle of having them implicate themselves in lies that they presented as truth.”

Everyone saw what went on. The GOP has brain damage from sniffing Trump's fecal gas.

Since he is so bad ass.

He wrote this :

?output-format=auto&output-quality=auto

He would personally stop anyone "right or left" "threatening violence" "in his neighborhood" "where [he] works" because he is SWAT.

I didn't see him manning the barricade at the door of the chamber.
