No Self-Respecting Republican Would Vote For Democrats’ Partisan Jan. 6 Commission
The proposed Jan. 6 commission is nothing more than another excuse to use the weapons of law enforcement against the Democrats' political enemies.

Democrats haven’t finished exploiting the attacks on the Capitol early this year. Don’t hold your breath they ever will.
On Wednesday, House Democrats are expected to pass legislation creating a 9/11-style commission regarding the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. It’s just their latest effort to re-traumatize the American psyche after a failed impeachment with fabricated evidence to excommunicate their political opponents, branding any and all on the political right who dared raise concerns about chaotic November election procedures as complicit in the horror.
Some House Republicans appear to see the commission for what it is: the 2021 version of 2017’s special counsel probe run by Robert Mueller, another excuse to use the weapons of law enforcement against Democrats’ political enemies. After the two-year investigation run by a team of Democrats with unlimited resources, Mueller’s team found not one person, let alone Donald Trump himself, had colluded with the Russian government to capture the pinnacle of power. It was a damaging conspiracy with origins in the deep state. No meaningful commission has ever yet held those responsible for this assault on American democracy accountable.
On Tuesday, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy rejected Democrats’ proposal for the commission, branded as bipartisan after Republican Rep. John Katko of New York negotiated its scope. That still excludes any investigation into last year’s deadly routine riots by the far left, the shooting of Republicans at a congressional baseball practice, or the Good Friday attack this year.
