Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA) said Wednesday on CNN’s “Situation Room” that the House Select Committee on the January 6 Capitol riots will have to hear testimony from former President Donald Trump.
Guest host Jim Acosta asked, “House Speaker Nancy Pelosi accepted three of McCarthy’s picks for this committee. What does it tell you, and how do you respond from McCarthy pulling all of them?”
Khanna said, “It’s so unfortunate Speaker Pelosi has appointed a bipartisan commission with Liz Cheney on it. She wanted this to be bipartisan to get to the facts. Look I served with Representative Jim Jordan on the Oversight Committee. If Someone tried to take him off The Oversight Committee, I would say no. He has every right to be on the Oversight Committee. But you can’t have people who have said that there wasn’t an insurrection be on a committee to investigate an insurrection. It’s not personal. It’s factual.”
Acosta asked, “On the January 6 Committee, should they try to bring in former President Trump to testify?
Khanna replied, “Yes, I don’t see how you don’t! They should bring in every relevant person to the hearings. It should be bipartisan, it should be factual. But how can you say that President Trump, who was giving speeches encouraging people to go into the Capitol, isn’t a material witness?”

All he would need to do is replay his speech from that day and remind them them it was HIM that suggested beefing up security....national guard I believe he mentioned. However since it is now entirely a kangaroo court it might be best to avoid it at this point if possible.
Exactly. Notice how many “progressives” magically come from that place? In fact, India itself has gotten way more conservative by sending all these lunatics to the US and other countries. How about rethinking this immigration pipeline.
Good point.
Mariel was an object lesson for a lot of lowlife countries: get rid of the problem people by sending them to us.
“At this point what does it matter?” Killery
He can testify via video.
F U Ro.
another lib , another foreigner, don’t we have any real Americans left in the South Bay?
This guy is worse than the Mayor of San Jose and Zoe.. and that’s pretty dang bad. imo.
They're dumb, but not stupid. They will ask questions that limit responses to yes or no answers. Typical liar...I mean, lawyer BS.
I heard him encourage them to go TO the Capitol, but I did NOT hear him say to go IN TO the Capitol.
Wait a minute...looting and arson is a RALLY; this was an INSURRECTION! < /sarc >
i’d just flip them the bird, till they stopped asking stupid questions, then walk away.
But it's ok to have Ro Khanna on the committee who's openly called it an insurrection and blamed Trump for it.
Because well ... Democrats.
Just send them a video of his speech
You’re out of your league, witch.
