2. In all honesty, I don't think the investigation matters at all...

Seeking truth to read back to people invested in gaslighting and denying that truth even exists is a huge waste of time. So is the unicorn "bipartisan" agreement on anything.

Democrats in the majority are blowing it hour by hour. It is nearly AUGUST...they are going to skip town for the entire month as if they were Frenchmen and the country was shut down. In the meantime, voting rights are history, state and local authorities have been empowered to nullify election results with little or no actual evidence and the filibuster is on sounder ground than it was when McConnell decided to gut it to pass SCOTUS nominees, but kept it to block majority agendas otherwise.

The investigation into January 6th is futile. We already have SEEN the video, HEARD the rally and the chants and the mob, and we KNOW what happened. We will not get any deeper because the GQP has already buried the evidence and is busily ensuring it never gets out while they are in D.C.

We're rearranging deck chairs on Titanic at this point instead of finding rope, anything that floats and building additional rafts to try to survive the inevitable.

This is why the House investigation into the insurrection is critical JohnSJ Jul 2021 #1
