Now, beginning in prime time on Thursday, the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol is setting out to establish the historical record of an event damaging not only to a community or individual families but to the collective idea of democracy itself.

After more than 100 subpoenas, 1,000 interviews and 100,000 documents, the committee has a story to tell in hearings that open this week. A story for the ages, it’s been said.

I, for one, will not care, will not watch. The dems are hoping to recreate the glory of the Watergate hearings. Trouble is people can much more easily tune them out than back in the 70s. I’m sure the MSM will make every effort to get people interested.

the democrats and their corporate media propaganda organs are going to be shocked and dismayed when they discover that ratings for old returns of “The Patty Duke Show” and “Gilligan’s Island” beat the stuffing out of the ratings of their Jan 6 show trials ...
