It might "look that way", but what if they are just telling the truth? Then "it looks that way" translates to "the Dems were right all along".

I'm no fan of the dems either. I simply have less disdain for them than the R's. I think they are less misguided (but still severely misguided) than the R's, whereas the R's openly want to undermine what our country stands for.

Of course it’s partisan.

The leader of one of America’s two major parties tried to throw away democracy in favor of dictatorship. Rather than denounce this behavior as profoundly un-American and despotic, a large percentage of the R party has opted to retain this leader and coddle his wounded infantile ego needs instead of standing up to his autocratic tendencies and pathetic delusions.

That won’t cease to be partisan until that leader is completely stripped of any remaining political power he still has in this republic. Thankfully there is now bipartisan opposition to him when you include the sizable minority of anti-Trump Rs, so he should continue to fade from power.

What is the purpose of Nancy's committee ?
The answer,
To jail and intimidate the political opposition in hopes of a better chance in the coming 2022 & 2024 elections. Power grab !!!

Looks like the DOJ paving the way for some uncomfortable testimony

She was hanging onto the window frame when she was shot, she was not a direct threat to anyone let alone to the shooter. Odd that cops across the country, whose lives were in actual danger didn't mow down rioters ... even when the rioters were a direct threat, like when the rioters trapped cops in buildings and set the buildings on fire.


Anyway, in the room with the small band of rioters, the Capitol cops who were standing in front of the doorway had moved over to the wall next to the window Babbitt was climbing through and it seems they had moved at the request of blm antifa Sullivan. While they were standing right next to the window they didn't tell her to get down or grab her when she started to climb up in the window.

That's also the purpose of these hearings by the way. To keep this all front and center in the hopes that it will be in the forefront of people's minds when they go to vote in November 2022. But can they keep this charade going for that long? People will grow weary even of this if they keep the volume up to 11 on it for that long.
If there are candidates on the ballot supporting the violent overthrow of the government, then it should be on the minds of citizens when they vote.

I hope the R party trends away from that direction however, in which case I would then agree that it would be time to start to move on from 1/6. The jury is still out on that decision though.

The fact is the BLM people were there inciting burn the place down . that is fact and he was wearing Trump clothing . How may unknowns were there of BLM and antifa.


Dinesh D'Sousa found out the guy who organized that white supremacist march in Charlottville with torches and songs was one on the organizers of Occupy Wall Street and voted for Obama.. since when does a guy who votes for Obama become a white supremacist?? Organized by the radical left.
