Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Monday introduced a resolution to establish a House select committee with 13 appointed members, five of whom will be chosen after consultation with the GOP, to probe the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
Democrats and Republicans remain at odds over whether the Capitol insurrection warrants a 9/11-style independent commission. After the commission failed to pass the Senate, Pelosi said she would take the matter into her own hands.
- The committee will investigate the “domestic terrorist attack upon the United States Capitol Complex,” as well as security failures and the transfer of power, according to the resolution. Pelosi will designate the committee chair.
- There is so far no deadline for its final report, but the committee will be able to convey interim findings and legislative recommendations. It will also have the power issue subpoenas.
“January 6th was one of the darkest days in our nation’s history,” Pelosi said in a statement. “It is imperative that we establish the truth of that day and ensure such an attack cannot again happen.”
- “Senate Republicans did Mitch McConnell a ‘personal favor’ rather than their patriotic duty and voted against the bipartisan commission negotiated by Democrats and Republicans,” she added. “But Democrats are determined to find the truth.”
Over three dozen Republicans backed the 9/11-style independent commission earlier this month.
Maybe it’s time to expose the Capital Police Officer who shot Ashley Babbitt in cold blood.
Murdered!
Funny how Democrats hat police and want to defund them all the time. Funny how Democrats go batshit crazy and destroy cities while trying to hang the officer but now all of a sudden they are quiet.
Crickets!
Good – it should uncover the BLM/Antifa infiltration as well as the police participation of letting them in!
More wasted taxpayers (OPM) money. She already knows all to be known, that she and her minions are the cause of it.
How about spending TIME on passing legislation to help our country?
No really, thats why you are in elected office. Not wagging the dog!
Release all of the videos to the public.
Corrupt Pelosi should not be establishing ANYTHING !!!! Remove her & Jail her for Treason !!!!
Shit. How about 13 shots with lunch. That’s all she’ll get.
She should just ask Putin, he knows everything about everybody. lol
Pelosi’s other picks are House Administration Committee Chairwoman Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.), House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), Rep. Pete Aguilar (D-Calif.), Rep. Stephanie Murphy (D-Fla.), Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) and Rep. Elaine Luria (D-Va.), Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) (Rino hater of Trump). She could not have hand picked her “FRAMERS” any better. Anything and anyway to frame the man from being able to beat the Democrats again fairly!!!! The only think I can say is she better go after the Democrats who plotted and planned including Pelosi held responsible for the insurrection and MURDER of Ashley Babbit.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is showing how off the deep end this hate filled evil woman has gone. It is time that this woman be removed from her position as she is taking it to a new level of laws. The Congress and Senate have to much power to enact new bills and probes to suit their purposes. The people (taxpayers) of the country should be the ones voting for major changes like that, not her!!!!The rules are in place. The only conceivable purposes would be to give Nancy Pelosi the power over the Executive branch of government and the country. As a taxpayer of this country I think she has CROSSED THE LINE. Nancy Pelosi needs to be fired for VIOLATION OF OFFICE along with Schumer, Schiff, Nadler, Waters etc.
Babbit family will OWN Pelosi’s ass soon !!!!
