Democrats On Performative Capitol Riot Commission Made More Election Challenges Than Republicans Pelosi Kicked Off
Pelosi's rebuke of Jordan and Banks is incompatible with the records of those she handpicked to lead the Trump Derangement Syndrome initiative.

In rationalizing her move to boot Reps. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio., and Jim Banks, R-Ind., off her Jan. 6 Capitol riot commission, Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made an illusory claim that contradicts her decision to permit extremist Democrats.
Pelosi said Jordan and Banks “had made statements and taken actions that I think would impact the integrity of the committee,” and that such statements and actions “just made it ridiculous to put them on such a committee seeking the truth.”
The first flaw with these remarks is that any “truth” will come to light from a 13-person commission comprised of those who are left-leaning enough to desire the riot to stay on replay in the American psyche forever. Furthermore, the left’s relationship with the “truth” includes referring to a small minority of Trump supporters as white supremacists worthy of a trip to the Gulag.
We know the commission is a political ploy. It’s a tool to frame all on the right as “insurrectionists” no different than, as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Mark Milley articulated, “Nazis.” There have already been several investigations, but Pelosi and the left want it to never end. And why would they?
