Jan. 6 committee drops final report after 18 months of investigations

The House select committee investigating the events at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, has released its final report, following 18 months of investigations and public hearings that many Republicans have derided as a partisan witch hunt and political hit job.

The 845-page report was widely expected to focus heavily on the role of former President Donald Trump, a personal priority of outgoing Wyoming GOP Rep. Liz Cheney, a stalwart opponent of the 45th president.

Cheney led a group of House Republicans in voting to impeach Trump during his second impeachment trial. Her continued vitriolic comments against him ultimately prompted the House GOP to remove her from her leadership position. She was ultimately defeated in her primary by a Trump-backed challenger and will depart the House in January.

The Wyoming Republican was one of two hand-picked GOP lawmakers whom House Speaker Nancy Pelosi selected to participate in the investigations following her rejection of certain nominees from House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy. She was joined by Illinois Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger, who also voted to impeach Trump. Both earned the ire of the GOP for their involvement in the project and McCarthy even dubbed them "Pelosi Republicans."

Facing certain dissolution when Republicans take over the lower chamber, the committee made a last-minute criminal referral of Trump to the Department of Justice for his alleged role in the incident.

Where did they “drop” it? Into the “circular file”? Cheney’s filthy, greasy hands have been all over it.

Now the real investigations begin.

Just listened to Trump, pissed at the Democrats illegal actions to release his tax return, call for complete disclosure of the tax returns of the Biden Crime Family.

I agree.

There will be a civil war at the same time as a war with China.

Three years of hell is about to begin.

Downloaded the report, looked at the table of contents. Found the "Recommendations" starting on page 690-something. No concrete legislation recommendations, although it references laws that have already been passed.

I want my money back, Congress.

“Jan. 6 committee drops final report after 18 months of investigations”

This committee is the boot of tyranny on my neck, stealing money, present happiness and the future from me and my family. ...from all of us.

Yet they continue like a never ending episode of Bossom Buddies unchallenged.

Good timing. Just when the current congress term is expiring.
Obviously, they milked the topic as long as possible.

Committee was not legally constituted according to Congressional rules, ergo, author doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Does the report mention anything about Ray Epps? He was the clown with the bullhorn telling others to storm the Capitol. Numerous vids of him are available on Youtube. The whole thing was instigated by the Dems with Pelosi leading the way. She denied twice to accept Trump’s offer to send in Fed troops. Nanc is the Judas of the American Congress.

Not questioning or criticizing your view. Just asking how you came to this conclusion. Thanks.
