“Behold the nonpartisan nature of the January 6th Committee. It puzzles me why it would have been so different had the allegedly bipartisan commission been approved. In fact, in the January 6th Committee's markup on the contempt resolutions, the grand inquisitor said, in opening: ``I can say confidently that the many involved in the run-up to January 6, an oath, a statement of fidelity to our democracy, was nothing more to them than meaningless words. I fear what happens if those people are again given the reins of power.'' This sums up the purpose of the January 6 inquisition in a way that is both cogent and terrifying. What the January 6th Committee lacks in bona fide legislative purpose, not patina of legislative purpose but bona fide legislative purpose, it makes up for in pure political vendetta. This investigation isn't about truth or democracy; it is a pure political power play. The immediate target is President Trump, but the ultimate target is those people--namely, the millions of Americans--who voted for President Trump. Why is there no dissent from this objective on this committee? Well, because the only Members nominally representative of the minority, chosen by the majority Speaker over the objection of the minority, share the political objectives of the grand inquisitor.…”
