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.

The propaganda is over-the-top and they will milk it for as long as possible.

We can’t know who organized it, but it should be obvious, agents provocateur were brought in to lead the crowd into the capitol. Capitol Police were purposely left unaware, so there would be trouble. TV cameras were on hand, and the Left and their media had their pre-arranged slogans, buzzwords and cliches ready. They all spouted them in unison.

Now they will use that to push a political agenda

The mob arranged from on high is a political strategy as old as time.

Pelosi is turning the House into a Nazi People’s Court.

Absolutely NO interest in election fraud, but a “commission” on a mostly peaceful protest. They want to compare four or five deaths (not to be disrespectful) to over 3000 deaths and major destruction to New York City and the Pentagon. Yep, that’s what Democrats do.

Yeah, like the Mueller Investigation revealed that Steele leaked the dossier to take heat off of Hillary for the email investigation or that the FBI tasked Stefan Halper, a spy, to ingratiate himself with the Trump campaign..... to spy.

Exactly. Roland Freisler would be proud of her.

What attack?

The videos don't show any attack except for an Antifa inciter telling capitol police to stand down so he could order people to bust down a door.

This attack false narrative is just that - a false narrative

Actually the Nazis got the idea for the People’s Court from studying Stalin’s Show Trials.

We don’t have honest investigations any more.

It’s all politics. The media spins the narrative and the investigators ignore anything that is contrary to the media or political narrative.

To paraphrase George Wallace, there is not “a dime’s worth of difference” between Nazis and Communists.

Bingo!

Tim Pool has already exposed one of the “journalists” at the event as a leftist agitator who was egging on the crowd.

Republicans make excuses, Democrats, conduct investigations.

"And not ONE investigation into BLM riots nationwide? Sacking of Seattle, Portland and Minnesota?"

Excellent point. We were supposed to believe that there was no coordination at all between those riots, no networking, and no advance planning. It was all just a noble uprising of "the people" to rectify the injustices of "systemic racism."

Having said that, Nancy might regret asking for a closer look at the genesis of the January 6th riot. There are numerous unanswered questions about who the rioters actually were and why security was so low, shockingly low, for a rally with 200,000 or more participants which was likely to attract counter-protesters.

People who had attended previous rallies in DC noticed that EVERYTHING seemed to be different, including the almost total absence of Honey Buckets and trash bins.
