We can’t punish the J6 Committee members for their lies from the dais, but they did something far worse. They concealed the evidence by refusing to let anyone but their chosen allies see it. They even tried to lock it up for fifty years. There’s a term for this: Obstruction of Justice.
We are all familiar with the fact that members of Congress are constitutionally immune from prosecution over what they say during the time they are debating in the House or Senate (Article 1, §6, clause 1). So, Pencil Neck Schiff was free to lie through his teeth about “evidence” of Trump conspiring with Russia, and all we could do was turn the volume down or change channels. The January 6 Select Committee was similarly free to declare that the riot around the Capitol building was “an insurrection” “worse than Pearl Harbor,” and we had no other recourse.
Of course, the Uniparty, to which Mitch the Turtle McConnell, Mittens Romney, and Thom Tillis have declared their allegiance, is now sounding air raid sirens over Tucker Carlson’s airing of previously concealed surveillance video from inside the Capitol. Kevin McCarthy wisely has avoided taking any sides other than to declare that transparency is a paramount virtue. Mere citizens such as this writer are left to puzzle out the legal ramifications of this turn of events. The case of Jacob Chansley, aka the Q-Anon Shaman, brings them into sharp focus. And we must wonder if the Committee and their allies are yelling because they have been placed in serious legal jeopardy. Tucker is taking flak from them, so he must be over the target.
Jacob Chansley became the face of the January 6 event because of his outlandish makeup and dress on that day.

The question is -what are the chances that the DOJ charges the J6 committee or the J6 prosecutors with Obstruction of Justice?
Answer to your question.
Zero.
Zero. Why do you ask?
About as good as me waking up a lottery winner tomorrow... I have not bought tickets either.
“About as good as me waking up a lottery winner tomorrow... I have not bought tickets either.”
Worse... your chance of winning the lottery is slightly greater than zero.
As I have been telling my friends. If you are a christian conservative you are far safer in Russia and China then in the US anymore.
After our economy collapse’ in the next year we’ll see how all this plays out, but the next civil war has started already and if you don’t believe that, then your a flat earther.
The Fixx is in, Biden will be Saved By Zero!
Absolute zero chance!
What are we to do here if the Congress can get away with lying? Maybe a disclaimer before any meeting of the House or Senate? How about one of the old favorite punishments for that situation.....washing the person’s mouth out with soap.
The obstruction of justice should extend to the fake “emergency” to stop the election certification being sent back to the states for fraud investigations.
Congress exists based on a theory - that people, acting in their interest, can by voting assemble a representative body which can legislate in their name and further the common good.
What "we are to do" depends on whether or not you are a believer in the theory.
Since the obstruction of justice includes the FBI held evidence that was sequestered, altered, and deleted by them, every court case in America that has evidence in the FBI’s hand should revise their cases to restrict the FBI evidence before proceeding.
