WASHINGTON (AP) — Nearly a year since its inception, the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol will go public with its findings starting this week as lawmakers hope to show the American public how democracy came to the brink of disaster.
The series of hearings that will take place over the next several weeks begin with a prime-time session Thursday night in which the nine-member panel plans to give an overview of its 11-month investigation. More than 1,000 people have been interviewed by the panel, and only snippets of that testimony have been revealed to the public, mostly through court filings.

As far as we know that only people that were armed were the capitol police.

No reason to watch this nonsense. It’s is simply intended to let Schiff and Cheney launch their presidential campaigns.

I'd watch this, except that I need to sit in my yard and watch the grass grow.

What an ignorant article. This so-called riot was already judged by the FBI as not classified as an ‘insurrection’. To keep calling it that is just an incendiary lie. The ‘right wing extremists’ (also known as conservatives) did not break into the Capital. They were let in by Capital police and there is video to prove it. The AP seems to think we’re all eager to watch a bunch of camera ho politicians perform in an actual circus. They are deluded.

Knowing that the whole purpose is to prevent PDJT from running for office again, I see no reason to waste my time. My hope is that the ratings are so low that it will be abandoned shortly.

Our Dear Rush, miss him every day, used to instruct us to make a banner to string across the TV during such times. It could say LIES, MORE LIES, DAMN LIES, and Liz Cheney in a jester suit.

I want to know why the bank manager gave the guards the day off on the day of the robbery.
The same manager refused additional security measures for the Sup Ct justices after an assassination attempt, ie, an insurrection attempt against the judiciary.

I won't be watching. This is nothing but dirty tricks and politics designed to get more votes.
If this is how our government operates, I want nothing to do with it.

No one has been charged with insurrection. No one has been charged with arson or indecent exposure.
But keep the drumbeat up. Soon the coup will expose itself

Thankfully the Republicans will be all over this, pointing out the lies and misrepresentation of all that precipitated the protests and the grave concerns we all have about the efforts to destroy our country. Oh.. wait. Got caught up in the dream that someone was actually representing American Citizens who are sick and shocked by what is happening.

How could we possibly know how to watch and know what to know about these contrived hearings without the direction of the AssPress. As I said above, trust is based upon experience, and way too many people no longer watch the major networks because they prove themselves untrustworthy over and over again.

Meanwhile, the committee remains silent on the election fraud of Nov-2020, which has virtually destroyed American democracy.

What we know is this is hogwash and that the majority of those who did anything on Jan.6 other than walk through an open door after being waved in by Capitol Police, were FBI plants and Antifa instigators. Moreover, Nancy Pelosi set this up by refusing to allow adequate security at the capitol, despite it being offered by the Trump admisnsitration.

Seeing as how this whole charade is nothing but lying democrat and RINO political theater I'm naming it J6 in the Park. As such I refuse to watch it. Spoken in my best Robert Downey Jr. voice from the movie The Avengers, "Doth mother know democrats and RINOs are corrupt?"

They keep using the term "Insurrection," which historically refers to an "armed" attempt to overthrow an established government. There is a reason why they choose to use the term insurrection. The term insurrection is in Section 3 of the 14th Amendment where it basically says that nobody can hold an official office who has engaged in insurrection. Trump is clearly the target. At the end of the day, it won't work, but you can bet that the media will have a field day with it.
