    You really want to compare notes to ridiculous investigations, brought to you by the democrat party just over the last 4 years? The list and tax payer dollars blown is staggering.

    The Democrat party has made a mockery of democracy. The Democrats literally put the B in Banana Republic.

    Lol, Trump and his followers LITERALLY tried to overturn our democracy. Literally. And it isn't like Trump pumped the breaks on the spending that you pretend to care about. I'm not a fan of the Dems, but there is no honest comparison. Trump was worse, and he GOP is still trying to decide whether to continue backing him and allowing him to lead the party or not. I'm not sure the party is redeemable at this point.

    The House and the Senate could have started public full due process hearings into the Capitol protests in January. I wonder why they chose not to do that? ;-)

    Instead they want to conduct more star chamber proceedings to hide the truth from the public.

    Yeah... And democrats did nothing to ensure their victory! Yeah, COVID was an absolute election weapon and to deny it is ridiculous.

    Here's how states have changed the rules around voting amid the coronavirus pandemic

    I can't tell if you thought you were actually making a point or not. But, just to clarify, no, you had no point. Trump and his followers literally tried to overturn democracy. Dems didn't. Return to reality. BTW, in case it needs to be said (and it probably does), COVID isn't a hoax.

    Yup.

    "hide the truth".:roflol:

    Everybody KNOWS that Bigfoot was involved.

    Ask Alex Jones and Mike Lindell.

    Anyway, once again back on-topic, the Dems. don't have 10 GOP votes in the Senate.

    Full apologies, I didn't scroll to see that somebody already called his BS... Thanks for your service..

    LOL at the Steele Dossier being something initiated by the D's that cost taxpayers a lot of money..

    That's what failure to research something leads to...

    What are you talking about? You think some yahoos, without guns, were over throwing our government? ROFL!!!!

    Yeah... a real threat.

    Here is the ANTIFA member that got paid $70K for his video as he instigated and dressed up as a Trump supporter.

    [​IMG]

    What I hope we get out of an investigation are:

    Who under staffed the Capitol Police?
    How many ANTIFA members were present in the Capitol building?
    What does the Capitol Police do with their massive budget?
    Who is the officer that shot the unarmed woman and killed her? What was the threat?
    Why did the media falsely report the rioters killed a police officer when it never happened?
    Why did the media omit Trump calling for "peaceful protests" prior to the event?​

    But we know that will never happen.

    Good for Susan Collins. The Jan 6th protest should definitely be investigated (but lets ignore all the left wing initiated riots and ONLY investigate this one). The most dangerous man in America was there after all

    I agree the investigations into Benghazi were wasteful, but Republicans insisted on three I believe.

    I would comment on your premise of democracy but you use the Republican definition which is “win by cheating” so I don’t believe we will be able to agree on much.

    Obama/Biden LITERALLY funded the founding of the Wuhan Lab with American taxpayer dollars. That lab let loose a virus that killed millions and cost trillions. Any interest in investigating THAT?

    And hopefully, that condition on THIS subject might be what allows Joe Manchin to remove his head from his own derriere...

    There was no credible threat of overthrow. However, I did hear that AOC should get a Purple Heart for her hurt feelings.

    If peddling these unhinged conspiracy theories are what you need, then sure, investigate that dumpster fire too. Now, if you have the integrity to address the topic, how about investigating this?

    Hm, why didn't you show photos of the police they hospitalized? Why no picture of the noose they erected? Why no video of them chanting for people's death? Why none of the videos of them talking about what they would do if they caught Pelosi or Schumer? Why no pictures of republican lawmakers cowering in fear and trying to help barricade the doors, only to later pretend it was nothing more than a tour group? Why no mention of the death threats they issued?

    Why are you ignoring the video of rioters assaulting an officer and screaming "kill him with his own gun" until he was able to escape by shouting back "I have children"?

    I could go on, but the answer to each question is the same. We get it, you are dead-set on erasing history.

    Good for them. My point is, this should be the topic that consumes our political exhaustion. You said to me once they can walk and chew gum. Stop chewing gum, just walk period. The American taxpayer pays money to the government for our social and economic well being. The 6th, bad as it is, is irrelevant to the needs of the masses of millions of people.
