Republicans Slam January 6 Select Committee’s Harassment of Law-Abiding Trump StaffersKristina Wong 1 Dec 2021
House Republican congressmen Reps. Jim Banks (IN) and Jim Jordan (OH) on Wednesday slammed the Democrat-run House Select Committee on January 6 and its harassment of former Trump administration officials and others who acted lawfully, in a conference call hosted by the Conservative Political Action Committee (CPAC).
Banks, chairman of the Republican Study Committee, said:
It’s all based on a conspiracy theory. According to the committee, January 6 was an inside job. It was an attempted coup disguised as a political rally that was secretly orchestrated by President Trump and his closest advisors. That is a lie and as all of you know, it’s crazy.
Banks noted the FBI’s finding that the break-in at the Capitol Building was spontaneous and there was little evidence of an organized plot to overturn the election by Trump or his supporters, as first reported by Reuters. He also cited an “internal security breakdown” that contributed to the break-in of the Capitol.
But, he said, “because the media parrots the insane lie, it still has consequences.”
