Nancy Pelosi put together a select committee to transform the mild protests at the Capitol on January 6 into the worst thing that has ever happened to democracy. In order to achieve this she needs some serious bullshit and so as the committee began hearing on Tuesday, she backed up the manure truck to the House chamber.
Committee committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (a democrat) kicked off the hearings by claiming, “Our only charge is to follow the facts where they lead.”
Followed by, “We know seven people lost their lives.”
Really? They know that? The only person to actually die inside the Capitol on January 6 was Ashli Babbitt, who was shot to death by a Capitol Police officer. Two others died outside of heart attacks and one person, also outside, died of a drug overdose. Who are the 3 other people democrats “know” died in the Capitol?
This was followed up by testimony from Capitol Police officer Harry Dunn:
“I’d like to take a moment of my time to ask for a moment of silence for my fallen colleague, Officer Brian Sicknick, who died from injuries he sustained in the line of duty defending the Capitol of our beloved democracy,” said Dunn.
Brian Sicknick died of a stroke a day after January 6. His cause of death was listed as “natural” not that he died from injuries he sustained in the line of duty. Officer Dunn just perjured himself, under oath, in a House select committee meeting.
Obviously there is no effort to follow the facts where they lead and that’s because Pelosi never intended to get anywhere near the truth with this select committee. She made that abundantly clear with her own statement:
The violent domestic attack on Congress on #January6th was the worst assault on the Capitol since the War of 1812 & the worst domestic assault on American Democracy since the Civil War.
The future of our democracy is on the line.

Worst assault on the Capitol since the War of 1812? Pelosi is old enough to know that is not remotely true:
On January 30, 1835, British immigrant Richard Lawrence attempted to assassinate President Andrew Jackson at the U.S. Capitol, but his pistol misfired. How many presidents were almost assassinated on January 6, 2021?
On May 2, 1856, pro-slavery democrat Preston Brooks beat abolitionist Senator Charles Sumner with a cane, while another democrat held off help with a gun. How many Senators were beaten with a cane on January 6, 2021?
On July 2, 1915, German spy Eric Muenter detonated a bomb at the U.S. Capitol, causing significant damage. How many bombs went off on January 6, 2021?
On December 13, 1932, Marlin Kemmerer showed up in the gallery of the House of Representatives and pointed a gun at Congressmen, demanding to speak. He was eventually disarmed. How many Congress Members had a gun pointed at them on January 6, 2021?
On March 1, 1954, Puerto Rican terrorists opened fire on the House of Representatives from the gallery, hitting 5 Congressmen. Luckily, they all survived and lucky for the terrorists, Jimmy Carter pardoned them in 1979. How many members of Congress were shot on January 6, 2021?
On March 1, 1971, hippy terrorists The Weather Underground detonated a bomb below the Senate chamber. How many bombs were detonated on January 6, 2021?
On November 7, 1983, members of the Communist Organization and the Black Liberation Army detonated a bomb at the U.S. Capitol. Do I have to keep asking how many bombs went off on January 6, 2021?
On July 24, 1998, Russell Eugene Weston Jr. shot and killed 2 Capitol Police officers at the U.S. Capitol. We already know that zero Capitol Police officers were killed on January 6, 2021.
Starting on September 18, 2001, envelopes containing deadly anthrax spores began showing up at lawmakers offices in the U.S. Capitol. 5 people died and 22 were hospitalized. How many bio-weapons were used on January 6, 2021?
The “deadly armed insurrection” of January 6 was a bunch of knuckleheads and leftists agitators running around the Capitol acting like fools. They broke a couple of windows and one of them may have taken a shit in Nancy Pelosi’s office. It was the least worse attack on the U.S. Capitol in the history of U.S. Capitol attacks.
Pelosi’s select committee was founded on lies and is being reinforced by lies to come to the bullshit conclusion that Donald Trump almost overthrew the government. The truth is, the government was overthrown when democrats stole the 2020 election.
