Of course they do, they know what the results will be. They sound like the typical conservative Morons on this board, "Well other people did other stuff". So investigate "Other Stuff" too if you want, if you want start an investigation into what happened in Portland or anything else. But the bottom line is that Jan 6 is Jan 6 and it stands alone as an event and should be investigated as such. The Trailer Trash that that stormed our Capitol on Jan 6 must be held accountable, fucking idiots like the Old Dude who claim "They were within their rights", need to understand that this is not legal behavior and will be punished as such. Their refusal to accept a 50/50 bipartisan commission to investigate simply proves what we all know, GUILTY!

House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy on Tuesday broke his silence on the bipartisan Jan. 6 commission proposal negotiated by one of his key lieutenants, saying in a new statement that a new commission would be "duplicative" of federal law enforcement efforts and "potentially counterproductive."

The detailed timeline of events surrounding the deadly siege of the U.S. Capitol and violence in Washington, D.C. on January 6, 2021.

While the proposed panel would give both parties equal representation in appointees to the commission and require bipartisan agreement for subpoenas, McCarthy said he wants the effort to expressly include a review of "political violence" in American cities last summer amid racial justice protests.

The bill is expected on the floor this week and can still pass without GOP votes. But McCarthy’s opposition could give cover to more Republicans in the House and Senate to oppose the proposal and try to depict it as partisan.

"Given the political misdirections that have marred this process, given the now duplicative and potentially counterproductive nature of this effort, and given the Speaker’s shortsighted scope that does not examine interrelated forms of political violence in America, I cannot support this legislation," McCarthy said in a statement.
