You know things aren’t right when even people who attempt to cooperate are attacked, and when documents given to the cohttps://amgreatness.com/2022/06/08/why-i-refuse-to-testify-before-the-illegitimate-january-6-committee/mmittee are leaked, and in some instances doctored, by the committee.
Some people have asked me why I refuse to testify before the illegitimate January 6 committee. They say, “Ooooh, you must have something to hide or else you would testify.” I say that type of thinking is not only naïve in this age of political warfare, but it is also dangerously un-American.
Every institution of this nation has been weaponized by the Left for the purpose of arrogating power to themselves and destroying their political enemies. They want to ruin everyone they believe is standing in their way of turning America into the leftist paradise of which they dream.
Have we forgotten how the Federal Bureau of Investigation was used to spy on President Trump during his campaign for president in 2016? Testimony at the Michael Sussman trial confirmed that Democrat Hillary Clinton, Trump’s opponent, instigated the Russia collusion hoax.
The media went along with it. The media supported it. And, the media used the fake Russia story to try and derail Trump’s candidacy and then his presidency.
After Trump was elected, Clinton constantly referred to him as illegitimate and the pawn of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Even after the Mueller Report debunked that mad theory, some members of the January 6 committee still believe and propagate the hoax.
Yes, the media and the federal government have been weaponized.
We see it in the disparate treatment of the January 6 rioters and trespassers, and the treatment of the Antifa and Black Lives Matter rioters of 2020.
Many January 6 defendants have been denied bail and have been in prison for over a year awaiting trials that seem never to come. Most Antifa and BLM rioters weren’t even arrested. Those who were, got released quickly, and Kamala Harris and other leftist politicians helped raise their bail money.
It’s past time to give the January 6 defendants due process.
Then you must consider the context of the onslaught against American values where kids are arrested or suspended from school simply for messing up someone’s pronouns.
Now we must also consider the attempt to destroy the House of Representatives as an institution.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has repeatedly rammed through changes in the way the House operates to give herself more power, to empower her congressional allies, and to minimize the traditional rights of the minority party.
First, she led the fight to have Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) removed from all of her committee assignments because of social media posts from years before she ever ran for Congress. This was unprecedented but now will likely become the norm for a generation.
She also attacked Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) for an anime meme that allegedly portrayed him as a cartoon hero attacking Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-N.Y.). Democrats voted to censure Gosar, and Pelosi removed him from his committees. No word if Pelosi is going to review all of AOC’s intemperate comments or remove Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) from her committees for her anti-Semitic statements.
Then Pelosi rigged the January 6 committee itself. In an unprecedented step, she denied House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s (R-Calif.) selections for the committee. She appointed the anti-Trump, anti-Republican duo of Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), ensuring only members who supported her desired political outcome would serve on the committee.
The committee has been issuing subpoenas to the public and now, members of Congress, without authority. The committee is required to submit subpoena requests to the ranking member of the committee before subpoenas can be issued. But there is no true ranking member. Pelosi removed the ranking member McCarthy selected to represent the Republican conference.
Liz Cheney, while still officially and unbelievably a member of the Republican conference, was not appointed to the committee with the support of the conference. She was instead chosen by Pelosi to be a lackey for the Left’s desired political outcome. Without a true ranking member, the committee cannot properly issue a subpoena.
The committee also has proven that it is indeed conducting a witch-hunt against political enemies. Pelosi has attacked her putative replacement, McCarthy. She and her lackeys also seem fixated on the House Freedom Caucus, as four of the five members to be subpoenaed in this unprecedented manner, are members. Two are former chairmen of the Freedom Caucus and a third is the current chairman.
You know things aren’t right when even people who attempt to cooperate are attacked, and when documents given to the committee are leaked, and in some instances doctored, by the committee.
For instance, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) took to the floor to misquote and take out of context, a communication between Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and former Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows so he could suggest a sinister intent.
Recently, the committee leaked a text message that I sent to Meadows shortly after the 2020 presidential election. That the committee is leaking anything is absolutely indicative of the bias of its members.
Pundits and the press went berserk about my text to Meadows. The headlines and stories were misleading and hyperbolic.
The substance of the text show that state legislatures and governors in states where there was alleged fraud may have had a legal path to the prevent certification of electors.
That was true then. It remains true today.
But, the bedwetting, anti-Trump media types were apoplectic that I would send such a message to Trump’s chief.
Similarly, the committee, which is populated by members of Congress who objected to certification of electors when Trump won in 2016, believe that anyone who objected to 2020 electors somehow attempted to overthrow the government.
The committee believes that if anyone, including myself, met with anyone else to explain why there was an objection, then those who discussed the statutory process were somehow plotting an insurrection. In truth, like Democrats in 2016, Republicans were merely discussing the legal process.
In the meantime, Democrats who wrongfully claimed there were “reconnaissance tours” of the Capitol led by Republicans, go undisciplined for their defamatory and totally debunked statements.
Pelosi won’t release more than 14,000 hours of surveillance video from the Capitol on January 6, 2021.
Pelosi won’t be compelled to testify before the committee about her role in the riots of that day.
Americans no longer trust the media, don’t trust the federal government, and certainly don’t trust Congress.
Neither do I.
I have watched the Star Chamber proceedings of the January 6 committee and have reached the conclusion that not only is it illegitimately formed, in violation of the rules of the House, it is manifestly organized for one purpose: a search and destroy mission against any and all perceived political enemies.
Frankly, it would be irrational to submit oneself to maltreatment by enemies of America. They want to bring down this country and are content to destroy every institution, including the House of Representatives, and individuals like me.
Submit to the show trial and win a free rope necktie.
Very soon they will start making laws and rules so that if republicans take over they can’t do the same things they are now doing to people. And a lot of what they are doing is illegal. How are people that were simply at Jan 6 still in jail. No charges.
Soviet show trial. We’re now “Back in the USSR”
Great article, great post. Thanks for sharing. Information is POWER. And WE THE PEOPLE need to be informed.. I was there Jan. 6th, and it devastates me personally to see the reckless way the News and TV covered this as a smear campaign. Lets get rid of them ALL..
I can see November from my porch. I just hope we can trust the election. If not, my passport is in order and I have places to go to.
Unfortunately, don’t be surprised if the show trial works and the Democrats, with help of the msm, manage to pull off the new “Russia hoax.”
And just in time for the midterm elections . . .
Well said.
A win/win side of this…..( & there are some)….
….is We the People
Folks are being red pilled all over the place!…Enlightenment!!!
And they are disgusted while witnessing the House, Senate, President, and all the alphabet lettered associates being weaponized against us!!!
They are waking up!
It needed to happen!
And while there are SOME good guys and gals working on our behalf, who took their oaths seriously!…they are few and far between….
..the PEOPLE realize Every citizen needs to be inactively involved !!
May God give them wisdom as He restores our Republic!
Just today my devotional warned against ‘suppose’ talk……
….it’s defeating, non sustaining and drains the energy!
Look to the Heavens….Pray that God will heal our land.
An eagle flying, soaring doesn’t worry how he will cross a river.

Congressional subpoenas issued to individual citizens that have never served in an elected position are null and void.
You don’t have to answer them and if you do, you do not have to take an oath of veracity.
Neither do you have to follow congressional rules of decorum.
It’s your House and if you want to cuss, cuss away.
We the People
This minimalist resistance to tyranny won’t last long because there’s too many Americans who are too easily offended by the only type of persons who can turn this ship around.
The go along to get along types are in the majority waiting for their next call to popular action, begging to be fed instructions as to what is the popular thought today.
They’re so easily bullied, hollow reeds blowing in the winds of popularity.
There’s not an unpopular thought in their complacent and malleable heads for more than a week because that’s how long it takes their preconditioned thoughts to be redefined and then reinforced with that all important approval they seek so feverishly.
Then they start parroting all the latest approved talking points and that’s when they get their reward to feel so good about themselves. Because that’s what’s so important - to feel good about themselves. Not to actually do good or do what is right but feel good.
As a matter of fact, to these milquetoasts, it is of utmost importance to feel good about themselves. So much so that if it takes lies to do it, then, truth be damned.
And that fact is what needs to be seriously investigated. The disinformation board was colluding with Twitter prior to Musk to patrol for people who questioned anything Brandon. The Deep state is beyond deep.
About Andy Gibbs:. U.S. Representative Andy Biggs, a Republican, represents Arizona’s 5th Congressional District in the U.S. House. He is chairman of the House Freedom Caucus and serves on the Judiciary and Science, Space and Technology committees.
Congrats for keeping a low profile. We’re you contacted or harassed by FBI in any way?
"In some cases"? Ha! I'd bet there's more instances of doctored and distorted than straight cases.
Kinda reminds of Hitler and his march to world domination. The people became sheep and were led to their doom. We are on that path and all I can do personally is pray that Jesus comes quickly.
“We are on that path and all I can do personally is pray that Jesus comes quickly.”

In the federal government, I would stress the top of the list of what we don't trust is the DOJ, the FBI and the intelligence agencies.
