The two top lawmakers on the House Homeland Security Committee reached an agreement Friday on legislation that would create a bipartisan, 9/11-style commission to investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.The bill, authored by Mississippi Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson and New York Republican Rep. John Katko, is focused exclusively on the attack and not other episodes of political violence as multiple Republicans earlier insisted. Though it has the support of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, it is unclear whether Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and other members of his caucus support it.

Investigation for what? The Republicans should not agree to any investigation, and should have learned by now not to fall for any Democrat calls for investigation. A Democrat investigation is nothing but a get the Republicans effort. The only investigation that should be agreed to is an investigation and charging of the officer that murdered Ashlee Babbitt.

Why bother? We already know the narrative: Trump conned stupid racist white people into an unarmed violent overthrow of the government, terrorizing poor AOC who wasn't even there whereupon they posted selfies and a black cop murdered an unarmed white woman with no consequences.
Did I miss anything?

Set up to purposely avoid any real facts, sounds more like the 4 year long Russia gate investigation against Trump.

So, will this “9/11 Commission” investigate the false flag rioters on January 6th that were actually BLM, Antifa, and Democrat activists who wore MAGA gear and pretended to be Trump supporters? Will they investigate all the internet chatter by Antifa in the weeks before January 6th to recruit rioters? Will they investigate Pelosi’s refusal to deploy National Guard to supplement the Capitol Police? Will they investigate the “Stand Down” orders that Pelosi and Mayor Bowser gave to the police to let the rioters into the Capitol Building? Will they disclose the name of the black LEO that shot Ashli Babbit and indict him for MURDER, like they did for Chauvin?

I'm sure it will be as successful as the 9/11 Commission at rooting out the truth.

Terrible, terrible, totalitarian LIE COMMISSION. There WAS NO RIOT.
There was no insurrection.
This is all lies. Totally a fabrication by the left.
Who murdered Ashli Babbitt?
Why isn't he in prison?

Did anyone else have to overcome queasiness to read beyond the word, "deal"??
"Deals" never go well for Pubbies. Unless we have our ultimate Deal maker, President DJT!

Who is going to do the investigating? The FBI? Will this just be some moderate-to-liberal analysis of the FBI's fudged data? What a waste of time and money.

Will it be anything like the Ware Group? (Whittaker Chambers). Will it be anything like the Warren Commission? Is it anything like the 9/11 Commission? Or the Vince Foster business? Or the Seth Rich business? Asking for a friend.
