Pelosi: "Strong interest" in Congress for 9/11-style commission to investigate Capitol attack
CNN ^ | Jan 15, 2021 | Adrienne Vogt

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that she has asked Retired Lt. Gen. Russel Honoré “to lead an immediate review of security infrastructure, interagency processes and command and control” at the Capitol complex following last week's deadly attack.

"We must subject this whole complex to scrutiny in light of what happened and the fact that the inauguration is coming," Pelosi said.

Pelosi also said there is "strong interest" in Congress for creating a 9/11- style commission to investigate the siege.

"Members are moving forward with strong oversight from committees of course to have after action review. There is strong interest in the Congress in a 9/11-type commission – an outside commission to conduct that after action review. In the meantime I’m very grateful for Gen. Honoré for taking on this responsibility,” she said.

Doesn’t take a commission to uncover the Antifa personalities in this “attack”. Would such a commission dare to uncover the Democratic politicians that helped Antifa do this?

Pelosi - you really don’t want to go there; no telling what you’ll find out about how complicit your friends were in it.

At the conclusion of this....DC Capital Police will probably have to go from 2,000 personnel to around 7,000....with a complete halt to regular citizens having any citizens to the capital building. You’d have to have two full-time guys guarding each House/Senate member...around the clock.

In Washington speak, “Commission” is synonymous with “Coverup.”

Don't forget it started with Antifa riots on President Trump's inauguration day. Limousines were torched, people assaulted, store windows smashed, fires started.

Who was held accountable?

What’s her angle?

Will she be able to hide her involvement? Or protect other democrats with a commission? Slow down the FBI or derail their investigation completely?

She doesn’t want to look too close. Might find something out she doesn’t want to hear-more pesky facts that will need to be buried.

“...is “strong interest” in Congress for creating a 9/11- style commission to investigate the siege.”

More importantly, there should be a strong interest in Congress for creating a 9/11- style commission to investigate the fraudulent election of 2020..

“Stop the Steal”

If it’s an honest investigation, you will not like the results...

Is she really this stupid, or just so evil/angry that she can’t think straight???
