Bawling cops not going over well with public: Poll shows drop in support for Jan. 6 commission
By Monica Showalter
For the few that watched the Jan. 6 commission's bawling-cops spectacle, where four Capitol Police officers testified through tears about fearing for their lives in the wake of an out-of-control crowd breaching the Capitol, there was ample reason for skepticism.
The Washington Post reported it like this:
Four police officers delivered emotional testimony Tuesday about the physical and verbal abuse they endured defending the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 from a mob of supporters of President Donald Trump, as a House select committee held its first hearing on the insurrection.
Afterward, Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (D-Miss.), the panel’s chairman, said that the hearing set “the right tone for the work of this committee” and that the panel would probably hold its next hearing before the end of Congress’s August recess. He said the committee would start issuing subpoenas for additional witnesses “soon.”
