Capitol police are telling this panel of Trump-hating members of Congress what they want to hear.
One of the witnesses at yesterday’s January 6 "hearing," Sgt. Aquilino Gonnell of the Capitol Police, seemed to threaten Donald Trump. He blamed Trump for creating the situation at the Capitol, adding that he would like to "to go to his house and do the same to him. He would like to go to Trump's house and do the same to him." He made this comment during colloquy with Republican turncoat Liz Cheney. Gonnell further told this select committee that "instead of sending in the military," Trump "egged them to continue fighting." It seems that the sergeant is unaware that Pelosi, not Trump, prevented the military from being called in. The sergeant also suggested that Trump is an egoist who did not do a good job. Hardly the stuff of eyewitness testimony.
How did Gonnell know that President Trump "egged" on the demonstration at the Capitol on January 6? While dealing with the onrushing "mob," was the sergeant also listening to audio of the president's remarks at his rally that day? It seems more likely than not that the sergeant was telling this panel of Trump-hating members of Congress what they wanted to hear, to further their campaign to smear President Trump and Republicans, generally, six months after President Trump left office -- peacefully, it might be noted.
Capitol Hill police officer Harry Dunn told the committee that he was called the N word several times on January 6. But before doing so, he asked for a moment of silence to honor the memory of Capitol officer Brian Sicknick who, Dunn asserted "died from injuries" incurred at the Capitol.

One of the cops used the word “extricate” in the testimony yesterday. Is that a word that normally rolls off one’s tongue?
Seemed like someone edited his words.
They were "reading" from pre-typed "remarks".
Yep, they were handed approved scripts to read.
What if the Trump supporters, thinking he won the election, were peaceful and rioters were planted?
McCarthy talked about running his own commission so why not do so and any evidence of what you claim can be brought out there.
True. But what if turns out to be effective political theater?
Have to prove it's a lie first.
sicknick wasn’t killed on jan 6th. proven
Ain’t watching. If I want to see poorly written plots and bad, amateur acting, I’d watch a B movie.
All of the police testimony appeared to be scripted. Someone suborned perjury.
