Two Thursday opinion pieces, one from The New York Times and the other from The Washington Post, torched the Jan. 6 Committee as "wholly ineffective," "tedious" and done only for the sake of politics. The Washington Post opinion column likened the committee, which concluded its televised hearings Thursday, to an overlong church sermon still being preached while congregants are thinking about brunch or Sunday football. The Times guest essay claimed the committee is not shifting views about former President Donald Trump’s behavior and has acted too partisan to convince people the committee is defending democracy.

Even the Communist propaganda outlets are sick of this total Stalinistic fraud mess.

The Knotseez are starting to sweat. The look to Attorney General Merrick "Gestapo" Garland for guidance. The Demented Fuhrer is probably still looking for Jackie.

LOL! They've done the polling (they'll never release them of course) and it's playing to the 17 people watching like a live stream of a "Family Friendly Dragshow".

The reason their efforts were so ineffective was because there's nothing there - the only person killed was an unarmed woman killed by a capital policeman, no legislator was harmed, no staffer was harmed, most of the people in the building just milled around and took pictures. For the record, they were invited inside by the capital police. What the committee's efforts did show is what besotted cowards our Congress is. I think their screeching about "insurrection" is that for the first time, they had to face the fact that a large percentage of the American public has no respect and even has contempt for them. Like teenaged girls obsessed with "popularity," most politicans can't stand the thought that they're not universally loved and admired.
I wonder if Liz still thinks that trying to ruin Donald Trump was worth wrecking her Congressional career.

They do not understand why the 1/6 committee hasn't ordered the arrest of Donald Trump. They think the committee isn't doing enough.

But - - but - - Raskin said the walls were closing in.
And Lizzard said they had all the documentary proof.
And Pencil Neck said Trump was finished.
And - - and - - and - - - - - - -

everyone keeps yelling at our President to give it up and get on with the future of the country but no one is yelling at the demcommies to stop this baloney and get on with governing, which is their primary duty, I sure do hope the Cavalry is taking notes

There was nothing to anything they've been "investigating" since summer of 2016.
How many have there been, and nothing at all.
I will say, it will be more likely they find abuse of office and mis-use of government funds by all those who've continued to try to find anything to "get" President Trump.
Wouldn't even care if they don't prosecute or arrest anyone, just expose everything, that will do enough damage to them.

They are beating a dead horse, but it is the only horse they have. If they run on the issues, they get crushed.

The Committee is being paid well; why would they kill the goose?
