As House leaders engage in a standoff over Speaker Nancy Pelosi's Jan. 6 panel, a poll found that likely voters are more supportive of investigating the social injustice demonstrations that roiled the nation last summer.
A supermajority of likely voters (66%) want the Black Lives Matter and antifa protests investigated, while a majority do not support Pelosi's inquiry into the Jan. 6 storming of the Capitol, according to the latest Rasmussen Reports poll.
Just 49% support Pelosi's House Jan. 6 panel, and majorities of Blacks and Hispanics back an investigation into the protests that followed the murder of George Floyd by a police officer. The demonstrations sparked violence in a number of U.S. cities.
"Sixty-seven percent of whites, 64% of Black voters, 66% of Hispanics and 62% of other minorities think Congress should investigate the 2020 riots in U.S. cities," Rasmussen Reports wrote in the analysis of the poll. "Seventy-five percent of Republicans, 60% of Democrats, and 63% of voters not affiliated with either major party say Congress should investigate last year's violent protests."
Also, according to the poll, majorities of likely voters back police and reject the narrative of systemic racism in law enforcement.
The National Police Association (NPA) said there were 574 violent clashes and more than 2,000 police officers injured in them. In the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, only one person was killed: Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt, who was a supporter of then-President Donald Trump. Trump has called for transparency regarding the investigation of the shooting — which the Justice Department has dropped.
While Black Lives Matter activists claim the American flag and pro-police Thin Blue Line flags are symbols of racism, 65% of likely voters reject that, according to the poll, which was conducted in conjunction with the NPA.

Yes we are becoming the Angry Majority, The Active Majority in this country. The RATS definitely did not think this would happen. Thought we would cry after the 11/3 election and go on about our lives. Wrong.
This is a NO Brainer. Obviously, all of us who saw police cars burn, stores looted realized the REAL danger never was the Capitol... Dog Gone.
The citizens are not quite as stupid as the Ministry of Propaganda portrays us.
is the purpose of these polls to convince us that a coup has occurred and that this country is being governed against the will of its people?
is the purpose of these polls to let the ruling class know that we know?
There are many people hypnotized with propaganda.
Rather than Matter, the prevailing body of evidence is that Black Lives are Dangerous. Not only to the City states but extrapolated exponentially to America.
It is a pity that the thousands of hard working America loving black people are being used to further the aims of the black anti American zealots
One wonders...... why do they cower in silence?
Cultural analysis
The fact it was taxpayer subsidized via a tax gap from korporations that donated to it (leaving the citizens to fill tax gap) raises it to a whole other level.
Smart entities will walk away, run parallel operations outside the control of Democrats who promoted the riots, and redesign their business plan to dump it all if necessary. Shell corporations, lease everything, contractors instead of employees, etc.
General Miley would call that “White Rage”. They are baiting their opposition to react to their daily slurs and insults. TPTB want “white rage” to cause them to ac. Don’t give them a reason.
“ These movements were about power in the service of mad millenarian aims, and they were only defeated with countervailing force. Fighting totalitarianism takes organization and a coordinated response, not theory. And it takes adults who have a moral compass.”
Nancy doesn’t care what people think.
She has a deep, psychological NEED to get “back” at both Donald Trump and his supporters.
The democratic party House leadership have already scripted the Committee’s final report.
The Committee’s job is to rubber stamp the conclusion that Pelosi, Nadler, Schitt and Clyburn have already written.
Let her “Select” Committee go forward without any Republicans on it. Maybe Nancy could ask Liz Cheney. Liz has the same psychoses as Nancy. Who cares.
This can just be another log in the stack that’s going on the fire that’s coming in November 2022.
